Warning, plant mint in pots, it's very invasive and is a bully. Depending on your soil, parsley grows well, as does coriander in the summer. I suggest that you try and get a bay tree in, they get away in a good sheltered corner, preferably south facing. Good King Henry also grows well (it's a type of spinach but is classed as a herb), oregano and marjoram are also tough. Rosemary can be a problem, and is best bought as a small plant and grown in a pot.
