Cloisters Bar, Edinburgh

I have just recently read the comment posted almost a year ago regarding poor treatment of a group of Americans. I am an American and have been going to Cloisters at least weekly since August of 2007, and I have visited the pub when here on holiday. Let me say emphatically that at no time have I ever had a problem with staff at the Cloisters on any account. It is hard for me to believe that any of their staff would have behaved as described in the post from January. The Cloisters staff are always friendly, eager to serve and to inform if their advice is needed. They know their beers, wines and whiskeys very well. If you are not certain about a choosing one of the fine range of cask ales, they are happy to give you a taste. The atmosphere is always warming, and there is always a good mix of people making up the clientele. If I lived closer, Cloisters would be my local.
