I would rate the location higher but we went to watch the Scotland football match and all tables were reserved so we stayed only for one drink before the game. That may be common here but I wasn’t expecting every table to be reserved. Other than that great location!

Ich möchte diese Bar wirklich loben, denn sie hat das beste Irish Comedy Event gezeigt, das es auf dem Fringe gab – einfach mega lustig und unvergesslich! Die Zuschauerinteraktionen waren legendär und haben die Show noch besonderer gemacht - auch ich konnte mitmachen. Der eingeladene irische Moderator hat einen Gag nach dem anderen abgeliefert und das Publikum ständig zum Lachen gebracht. :D Was die Show so spannend gemacht hat, war die großartige Harmonie zwischen den fünf Comedians, die eine unfassbar geile Performance abgeliefert haben. Es war richtig beeindruckend zu sehen, wie gut sie zusammengepasst haben und wie viel Spaß alle zusammen hatten. Das ging auch mit diesem coolen Pub: Die Atmosphäre in der Bar war super locker und entspannt. Sie ist schön groß, erst oben und wenn man runter die die Treppen geht, besonders unten mit einer weiteren Bar, wo man sich gemütlich zurücklehnen und den Abend genießen konnte. Das Ganze hatte eine richtig coole, ungezwungene Stimmung – perfekt, um einen tollen Fringe-Abend und Nächte zu verbringen! Danke für diese Erfahrung ;)
