I took agin this place when I walked in as the solitary barmaid had to finish a long chat with a couple of friends before they got round to ordering and eventually she served me, pleasant but a bit late. Then I got beer in a throw back handled glass, slightly short measured too. No complaints about the beer quality however, it may well deserve its GBG entry on this showing. A single dark room with a mix of seating options but not built for comfort. Wood and tile treatment to the walls. Two pulls with Scots beers plus a range of interesting and not so interesting kegs, extensive whisky range.

A modern place with distressed retro feel - full length grubbed wood panelling, random mix of chairs etc. The large mirrored rear wall gives clever impression of the bar being a much larger room than it is. Two ales on, Fyne Jarl and one from Williams Bros which was in pretty good shape, better than I had expected it to be. Also quite a large selection of bottled beers with a menu and tasting notes available, plus a number of craft keg pumps. A ‘January Sale’ advertised prominently and my half was a mere £1.50. Gigantic whisky selection, on par with Edinburgh’s finest.Regular live music advertised. Not bad as a random stop and was certainly a better bet than the more renowned Teuchtars that weekend.

Small bar with 2 real ales and a selection of "craft" beers/lagers. Food served.
