Thistle Street Bar, Edinburgh

Late 19th century bar which retains very old bar fittings but they may have been moved from their original position (or imported?). The panelled bar counter with pilasters and painted black is old as is the top. The gantry has blue bell decoration on four uprights throughout. The top section is ornate so looks old but some shelves are modern; lower shelving lost to fridges. There is a front door on the right but the bar fittings are now situated just behind this disused door. As you enter there is an ornately carved baffle / screen with multi-coloured glass panels along the top; also, a very short screen to the right of the main (left) door of similar (but plainer) style. The ceiling indicates changes to the room arrangement. There is a small alcove on the right past the servery. There is a small room at the rear with marble fireplace and ornately edged mirror.
