R.I.P. The Clock Inn. Died 2003. Now a LIDL supermarket! Still, there is the Balmoral not too far away!

The Festival Tavern, Edinburgh
Always busy, suits from adjacent financial district in at lunchtime, quieter regular trade until six-ish, then the younger element take over, and the place is hopping! Current cheap drinks Whisky 1.65 a double, beers at 1.80 a pint. Food, despite being microwaved, is at acceptable prices. Large screen TV at bar, and wide screens in other corners. Large and varied clientele,... and Gary!

The Cask and Barrel, Edinburgh
EXCELLENT BOOZER! Terrific range of real ales, lots of guest beers so we bon't loose interest! Mitch and staff really know what they are about! Well worth a visit! If you have a session and get "tired" there is a bus stop ten yards outside the door!
A pub to enjoy!

Sad days when a pub that was always jumping, had excellent beer, the craic being excellent, has been reduced to three customers! Whisky was served, correction, thrown down in front of us, in warm glasses, my colleague's beer was vinegary, and the response was "if you don't like it you can always leave!" zero out of ten!
To add insult to injury, they have changed the pub next door "The Scarlet Jacket" into a MacDonalds!!
