The pub has a modern upgrade to this pub which sits less than 200metres from Haymarket rail station. There is a choice of over 30 single malt whiskies varying from £5.00 to Glenfiddich 15yr. old at £8.50 all at 25ml. 17 gins with prices at £3.00 to £4.00 for 25ml, then double this up to 50ml with tonic water and the price is £6.50 to £9.00. The beers on tap gives a choice of over 8 with Belhaven Best at £3.95 to Peroni at £5.50. The bottled beers of which there are more than 6 off vary between £3.95 for Budweiser to Innus & Gunn at £4.75. Plus, plenty low / no alcohol choices.
