| Cocktails aren't what they used to be but there's a good atmosphere and you can often get a seat on a Saturday night without waiting too long. anonymous - 15 Oct 2006 15:21 |

| This is a long narrow bar, which opens up into a more roomy seating area at the far end. Definitely one of the tourist pubs and like most has a story behind the name. The eponymous Maggie was hanged outside the pub and allegedly came back to life on the way to the funeral and was pardoned. Like others in the area sells pub merchandise and when I was there an American walked in, declared that he was "just looking", bought a baseball cap and walked out. No doubt even now he's boasting to the guys back home about the wonderful time he had in Maggie Dicksons pub. I on the other hand didn't, I found it a bit soulless and expensive. There are better pubs nearby, but don't try Biddy Mulligans next door. Millay - 27 Nov 2003 17:29 |
| Smallish pub with big atmosphere, big TV so good for sport. Good ale too! Mark Snelson - 6 Jan 2003 22:24 |
