| Visited just briefly walking back up towards Princes Street for another Fringe event. Wadsworth HB, of which I had but a half, was unremarkable but it was certainly a notable interior. Can't say I noticed a smell! JonW999 - 18 Aug 2008 23:09 |
| Visited August 2007. Nice pub, friendly bar staff. Decent real ales. I got a half pint for free, as it was near the end of the barrel, but the beer still tasted good! Did not eat. Sigmund - 17 May 2008 23:55 |
| Went for pint and a read of the paper on a recent visit to Edinburgh and I have to say I was hit by the smell when I walked through the door. I wouldn't say it smelt like wee, more like stale beer. Anyway, I soon became immune and enjoyed a couple of pints of Deuchars which was very good. It is a classic drinkers boozer and the interior is amazing but I wouldn't take the wife there for lunch. eveningall - 29 Mar 2008 20:43 |
| Stunning interior. L-shaped room - the entrance and the bar are on the long side; the short side has a fire place and side window. There are three very large pub mirrors, and beautiful decorative tiling on the lower half of the walls. Veggie bangers and mash and veggie haggis, neeps and tatties. 7 casks - nothing unusual, but all solid stuff. The beer range, the character, the atmosphere, the uniqueness of the place, and the veggie haggis lift this above the ordinary. It's a must visit place. Top pub. SilkTork - 19 Feb 2008 23:03 |
| Another reviewer has mentioned the smell in this pub. My wife and I visited it the other evening (having read its entry in the Good Beer Guide). After we walked through the door, we paused short of the bar and I said, "It stinks of wee." My wife said she was thinking exactly the same thing, so we turned tail and went elsewhere. There is no excuse for this lack of basic hygeine and housekeeping, and it is a shame that a pub that in other repects would appear to be excellent should let itself down in this way.
