The Rail Bridge, South Queensferry

Café-bar / bistro, with the picture windows and front terrace said to have spectacular views of all three bridges, but all we could see was fog when we stopped by! However, the interior is full of photographs and paintings of the famous railway bridge so it is almost a gallery or museum devoted to this iconic structure. Most inside tables are laid up for those dining, but there is also a lounge area with sofas down the far end. First floor balcony around all four sides. The very local Ferry Brewery 40/- (£4.90) was available from the solitary handpump, with Belhaven Best noted among the various keg offerings.
