The Kenilworth, Edinburgh

I had returned to this gem of a pub on a flying visit to Edinburgh just recently. I used to stay in Edinburgh and this pub was always one of my favourite drinking holes. The place has not changed greatly, thank goodness and the Kenilworth is well worth a visit and my advice is spend some time here and enjoy the beer and surroundings. I will return again for sure.

Brecks, Edinburgh

I had in the past spent many a happy hour drinking at this pub. In years gone by it was called the 'Goblet' and I still have the Scottish triple crown winners tie to prove this. The pub has changed of course and from a sentimental point of view I returned to see it once more. Not always the best thing to do, it was a hot day and the pub was not air conditioned so not too comfortable and in truth a bit dissapointing all round. The disconnected old phone line ''I'll be home late'' corner was still there as an earlier report states. I am sure this pub is well located in the popular Rose Street and enjoys its regulars.

The Blue Blazer, Edinburgh

I was recommended by a friend to visit the Blue Blazer and so glad I found this pub. They had such a good selection of cask ales, all that I tried, and I tried many, were just first class. Friendly staff that were keen to allow me to taste before I purchased. Only shame was that on the same night Scotland beat Norway and England got stuffed by NI - the beer eased my pain. Don't miss out on this place , go see for yourself.
