The Havelock, Nairn

Bucking Fastard left this review about The Havelock

A hotel not far from the sea with a large bar which features outstanding real ale.The side entrance gives way to a pool room to the right,the tap room to the left with a large stage in one corner which when not in use has traditional tables on it.There are high tables nearer the bar and then a door to a large,seperate dining room but with a large window so you can get an idea of what food is served here.The decor feel is modern,there are few original features apart from a shug but it's functional.Clearly a community hub and well used by locals .
The friendly welcome included ale tasters and the selection on my trip was Fyne Driftwood and Avalanche (NBSS 4.5) ,Castle Rock Harvest Pale,Adnams Golden Gull and Titanic Plum Porter (NBSS 4). For anywhere in Scotland that a very decent line up and a great double header with The Bandstand a very short stagger away.A must visit in Nairn.
