Railway Tavern, Alloa

The bar is the smallest public bar in Scotland. The sign above the door reads J Dobie Licensee'. The Dobie family - present owner and publican, Ronnie - is said to be the longest-serving family licensees in Fife. The owner Ronnie (Dobie) was sitting outside the pub soaking up the evening sunshine when I arrived. He joined myself inside the pub and we had a good chinwag about pubs and the world. This is a pub with a nationally important historic interior. This pub is not to be missed.
