The Bank Bar, Dundee

The Bank Bar is a particular favourite of mine. Centrally located in Dundee's Union Street, it is very near the railway station. "The Bank" is something of a real ale oasis in a city where real ale pubs are relatively few and far between. Several ales by local Tayside breweries are usually available along with the usual favourite lagers, bottled beers and spirits.

Home cooked food is available throughout the day with many traditional favourites being available. Vegetarian options are always available.

Weekends see live music in the evenings, where the focus is very much on local bands.

The Bank, in my opinion, is always worth visiting. Susan, Paul and staff will give you a warm welcome.

The Maltings, York

As a frequent visitor to York, I used to make a point of visiting this pub. It used to have the best selection of ales in York and friendly staff. No longer! The owner looks at his customers as if they were a pain and the staff are'nt much better.

The days are long gone when a publican could treat his customers with contempt and this is evident by dwindling clientele of this establishment.

Not really! The place certainly left a bad taste my mouth.
