hondo . left this review about The Bowlers Rest
Traditional back street local that hasn’t succumbed to the gentrification of Leith. Keg only selection but some good local breweries. Didn’t visit the lounge area.

Traditional locals bar, one fo the few remaining pubs in leith not to have succumbed to gentrification. A good choice of draft lagers/beers & well-stocked gantry. No cask ale. Pool table and separate lounge bar.
