fairly unremarkable GK place opposite the Wetherspoons (which it tries to mimic on a small scale). Ossian was the only none corporate offering.

Having visited this pub on several occasions recently, I am content to revise my views of the service offered. Remaining a Belhaven establishment, the pub now has new staff and a new manager. As a consequence, standards have soared. Congratulations to all concerned!

A visit to this establishment last Saturday lunchtime resulted in punters typically having to wait 10 minutes to get served. You would die of thirst meantime!
Why is it that only one person was on duty behind the bar - to attend to drinks and food?
If you want reasonable service, give this place a wide berth.

A Belhaven-owned pub which is well-known in Stirling for a good variety of real ales but sadly it has gone downhill in the second half of 2009, mainly due to the lack of an effective manager in situ. Service from staff is frequently poor and thirsty punters are left waiting while bar staff fiddle around making tea or coffee. Belhaven need to decide if the place should be a pub or a cafe - it cannot be both. If you are looking to get served with a quick pint, this is probably not the place for you.

Late comment again, but we enjoyed our beers here on another visit in May. Orkney Dark Island is superb.

Late comment, but we enjoyed a couple of Inveralmond ales here in August.

Seven real ales available - probably the biggest range in Stirling. The decor is fairly bland - this used to be a Hogshead and still has that chain pub feel about it.
