  • Outstanding pub restoration

Elegant, traditional New Town pub with half wood panelling that is enhanced by dark green leather seating. Attracts a varied clientele, predominantly New Town residents. The bar counter is particularly of note. Exquisite brewery mirrors hang beside framed, decorative and illustrative posters. The corridor between the front drinking area and the cosy drinking area at the back is flanked by a small snug and another side room. The fairly large beer garden to the side is popular in summer.

NOTE: Will open at noon Monday to Thursday during summer months.
