| Totally ruined....Everything that made this boozer great has been skipped....and for five years in a row we used to go there for Xmas eve for a cosy drink/piss-up. Used to have nice little alcoves, fitted red velvet sofas and drapes, loads of beautiful dark wood and a great atmosphere. Out the back to the toilets was oak panelled, now looks like McDonalds. The walls have been stripped down to bare brick, so it's like a building site. Upholstery is tacky like a Wetherspoons. Another great pub destroyed....congratulations. Disley - 10 May 2007 00:02 |
| Great that they give out free sandwiches and forgot to charge me for a round I ordered. Besides that, not a good bar. Too intimidating, if you're not one of the Irish locals. Heard it's just been refurbished and is re-opening this week. Don't think I'll be going back again, though. Archwaster - 2 May 2007 12:15 |
| Me and a mate have watched the Grand National in here for the last five years, one of the worst things about her moving to Edinburgh is that we can't do it anymore ... it's a fantastic pub and a great crowd. Evenings are smoky crowded but fun - what pubs used to be like. celt7 - 5 Nov 2006 15:57 |
| Was in this pub on a sunday night.....Lucky I'm not paranoid.....There were 5 traditional players sat in a circle facing inwards on the stage-playing away.... whilst the punters were all huddled round facing the bar.I sat at a table in the middle...-WERE THEY ALL TALKING ABOUT ME???WAS I SITTING OVER A TRAPDOOR THAT COULD HURTLE ME TO MY DEATH ON THE JAGGED ROCKS BELOW-IF I TAPPED MY FEET AT THE WRONG TIME...err no!! -just that noone had noticed me...so I eventually shuffled out -still,the trad session was very good.
