Pues por recomendación del guía de Free Tour fuimos a comer a un Pub típico. Lo cogimos un poco al tun-tun y la verdad es que no estuvo nada mal. La comida típica de pub bastante rica, sin llegar a ser muy copiosa era de calidad, la relación respecto al precio, algo más caro que en otros restaurantes. El ambiente el día que nosotros estuvimos era muy tranquilo, imagino que lo normal es que por la tarde-noche esté mucho más concurrido. El personal muy servicial y por probar la típica gastronomía de la zona pues ni tan mal, eso si la gastronomía como tal nada que envidiar a lo que ya conocíamos.

Just off the Royal mile, we got a breather from the massive tourist traffic. There was a draft from open windows which gave a chill and air alike. Food was solid with bangers and mash needing a bit more sauce but still very tasty. The soup was very good.
