The Star Inn, Newton Stewart

I popped in while awaiting my haggis and chips from the near-by chip shop. The pub is a terrace pub, with buildings either side. The facade is the black and white traditional wood look, over stone. The interior is open plan, with a pool table one side and the room bending around the bar, where there was a TV on showing 'Friends', though you couldnt actually hear the sound! This part of the room was up a little slope, like they had incorporated a passage between the pub and next door. The decor was burgundy and white. Service was friendly and the few punters in were mainly the more mature. There was music playing at a fairly loud volume - making the silent TV a little redundant dont you think? Beerwise; Baisc taps, though Scotland generally has a few extra taps, it was still all keg, so i opted for the rarer McEwans 70/-, which is ok for one to be fair. No real ale. Sadly, if Newton Stewart were where i lived, i would likely abstain from drinking, as there is no choice - or move
