Went in the bar at the back which seems more lounge like. Was deserted and got a dreadful pint in here which I left. No atmosphere and rubbish ale. anonymous - 3 Nov 2012 13:00 |
Tried this pub after the Motor hoose. It is a bigger place (busier) with a large food menu. It burnt down a few years ago, so as you can imagine, very limited in character. I was told this is the best pub in Kirkwall- nothing special. scotscott - 24 Sep 2010 10:24 |
reasonable place, nice fire, good shelter from the constant rain. afcgazzard - 22 Feb 2009 11:34 |
Visited it a couple of years ago before the fire and now again - and I'm happy to say it's unchanged in atmosphere and quality. One or two snuglike area's where locals meet and further seating next to the bar. Do try the food - they have a chef who combines tradition and innovation in a thrilling way. Two real ales from the isles on offer; the Scapa Special here was the best of the three Orkney outlets where it's served. Marco_Daane - 21 Sep 2008 12:54 |
