| Typical traditional Scottish boozer that should be separated by a car park and a road from the river. But the river seemed a bit too close for comfort, having already crossed the road, on our Saturday evening visit. It is a lively pub with a bar area and a slightly quieter lounge with a nice fire. Although, both are one large room in reality. Live English women's football was showing in the bar. Theakston XB is the regular ale. Guests were Greene King IPA & Well's Bombardier. I opted for the XB, which was the first decent ale I'd had by this point. blue_scrumpy - 14 Jan 2020 20:23 |
| I was the only customer on a quiet wet day in Dumfries but the landlord certainly made me feel welcome. It had the feel of what I think of as a "border" pub with three of the four handpumps showing real ales. I chose the Corby Ale which the boss told me was from the Carlisle area; it was an excellent pint. The interesting gantry featured a good selection of single malts; it is an italian marble counter on italian hardwood evidently! JBGatelad - 27 Jan 2012 13:05 |
| Agree with most of the comments posted here, malts is exceeding fine some of the clientele are distinctly anglophobic. Also it can become a little raucous at weekends particularly during the football season. Having said that it's saving grace is that it serves good beer from cheery barmaids. The gantry of malts is quite outstanding. It has a seated covered smoking area out back. Overall somewhere I drink in fairly frequently and enjoy. beerslurper - 18 Jun 2009 17:49 |
| We found this to be a very welcoming place (and we're English). We ordered our drinks and looked around for somewhere to sit, but it was a bit full in the bar area. The landlord instantly said "Give me a minute and I'll get the fire going in the other room" which he promptly did. Several guest ales a couple of which are from micro's, loads of malts, even had a decent wine for the other half. Called in again the following day for more of the same.

| Not a bad pub with decent beer. Not the most welcoming place unless you are known to the clientel and the bar staff. gladys - 24 Oct 2008 22:29 |
