| The classic Edinburgh pub, tucked away in the new town and in possession of a small bar and a stark but atmospheric side room that one imagines is just how pubs in the eighteenth century would have been. A good range of Scottish ales that do something to offset the impression that beers north of the border are inferior – Trade Winds from Cairngorm is a mainstay while Harviestoun’s Bitter and Twisted also graced the pumps.

| Thought for a minute it had been gentrified but the paint job extended only as far as the exterior. Exactly as I remember it and yes, I am a touristy Rebus fan here for the fiction. Intimidating, rough around the edges and I wouldn't change a thing about it. Visit blogged at http://bit.ly/2rTWydn Mappiman - 25 May 2017 13:29 |
| Following in the footsteps of Rebus/Rankin is why, I'm sure, most people come here; but it is a good old-fashioned beershop and the beers are very well kept. The Inveralmond Ossian was on damn good form and the place has lots of good old dark charm. littledrummerboy - 29 Sep 2014 23:39 |
| This small and homely bar in the New Town area was my last pub of the day before my flight back to London. 3 beers on, I had a pint of Lantern Jack from Broughton Ales which was a decent pint. The real log fire was on full pelt in the back room which in turn made the bar very warm…almost too warm. Decent pub / bar that’s worth searching out for a few beers lezford - 29 Oct 2013 13:27 |
| OK for one or two to experience the ambience of the place...then move on. Beer quality good and the house blend is not bad at all. kernott1 - 2 Jan 2013 15:56 |
