The Central, St. Andrews

The Central Bar, appropriately, has a central bar: a substantial one with solid wood panelling and pillars and adorned with numerous hand pumps on three sides. On closer inspection these turned out to include a number of duplicated beers (Greene King Abbot, London Glory, Old Speckled Hen and Belhaven 80/-) plus four guests. I like this sort of layout, which I think of as being typically Scottish, and the beer was in pretty good condition too. Easily the best of the three we tried on our visit to St Andrews, and I would certainly want to include it on any future trip to this delightful small city. My only gripe would be that the sign indicating that a Camra discount is available was displayed on the wall on the way to the toilets, not on the bar.
