The bar keep coached us through Scotch whiskey or as they say, "whiskey". We tried three different local Scotches. Each was unique and wonderful in its own way. It was a great way to learn about Scotch from those who know!!!

I really enjoy the feeling of this wee pub. Suits my traveling legs fur a wee dram aff the bus. I enjoy the outdoor space mainly but the inside is quirky and cozy, would definitely do karaoke in there. Wusny too happy at there being no dog water bowl outside or inside despite staff and punters having dogs in. I did mention it so it may have been sorted already.
