| We were staying in the area, and armed with my Camra pub walks in Edinburgh book, this was the closest trail. There were meant to be four pubs to go to, but due to the quality of the first two, we only got half way through. This is deceptively spacious (christ, I sound like an estate agent). Once you fight your way through the smokers who wont budge for love nor money, you enter a central, horseshoe bar with plenty of seating and then a room off to the side for eating. We sat at the bar and people watched. We saw a man with a waxed moustache and a fat Noel Gallagher. The beer was good - I was on flying scotsman and the staff were friendly. Would come back.

| Really nice below street level stockbridge boozer . Its big enough with extra seats through the back and a roaring fire . Sky sports for the football and a decent quality pint , decent selection all round . staff ok as well . It can get very crowded around the bar and a lot of the locals treat the gaff as their personal property which can be annoying but theirs no doubting its a quality shop. beersteer - 15 Apr 2010 16:43 |
| I'd highly recommend a visit to the Bailie if you get the chance. It's an underground bar with a low ceiling so has a cellar bar feel to it. There are a few windows that add some light and some outside bench seating for smokers and sun worshippers. Inside there is a small circular bar with the spirits on a central island. There's the usual Scottish offering, Tennents, McEwans and Bellhaven etc. Six real ale pumps which look to be split between three regulars, Deuchars, Directors and Cally 80 plus three changing guests. Prices were a bit steep at £3.25 a pint but I'm getting used to paying London prices around here. The bar has stools and comfortable seating surrounding it with an eating area at the back with a good pub menu. There are lots of old local memorabilia on the walls and what looks like some original fixtures and fittings including some old glass in the windows and door. Newspapers and local information leaflets are available. Sky Sports shows premiership games and whilst I was there they were also showing the test match. Nice laid back friendly bar that has a lot going for it. Millay - 16 May 2009 07:12 |
| Lovely food, wonderful Guinness and friendly staff. Beautiful looking pub too and very comfortable. Was a bit on the pricey side compared to other pubs in the area but not too bad. Could do with getting some extra herbal options in on the tea front. FuzzyKipper - 6 Apr 2009 19:16 |
| New town boozer that lies just below street level. It's quite large but very cosy- the large bar takes up quite a section of the pub. Nice roaring fire too and a great atmosphere. 3-4 real ales on tap and a few papers to peruse- perfect for a lazy afternoon. A very pleasant experience. Carlurmston - 26 Jan 2009 18:08 |
