Reivers, Galashiels

The building looks as if it might once have been a small hotel, with various side rooms off the main bar area and a staircase leading to the upper floors. Although Reivers styles itself as a "Sports Bar," the Lithuania v Scotland World Cup football match wasn't on any of the televisions, which were showing pop music videos instead. The bar room was very dark; so much so that I couldn't make out all of the drinks available on draught. A pint of Carling lager, however, cost me £3.00. This is really more like a disco than a pub, although you don't have to pay to get in, but there are several proper pubs not far away.
