| Good Beer Guide Regular and a perfect introduction to the City. We were on a city walk and popped in on a Saturday afternoon. Full on orchestra of folk musicians and singers - with many tourists (ourselves included) soaking up the entertainment. Single room downstairs - garden patio and I believe an upstairs restaurant. Fyne Ales Jarl in perfect condition. Worth seeking out. An original. Mappiman - 2 Oct 2019 17:36 |
| Pricy for Glasgow I thought. £3.55 for a pint of Deuchars which was admittedly well kept. Lots of Glasgow pubs are cheaper £2.50 a pint of IPA in the Pot Still for example. Might be good craic at the right time but I thought it was a bit average ArhurPint - 15 Jun 2014 18:22 |
| Good beer, but a bit trendy for me! Wilson_MacDonald - 23 May 2014 22:00 |
| It's Cup Final Saturday lunchtime and the pub is rammed but there is not one iota of hassle - in fact two sets of supporters were here for just one/two things - the beer and the food. The beer, Fyne Ales "Jarl" was indeed excellent and they also had a Harviestoun and a Deuchars beer on. Haggis,neeps and tatties were being downed like there was no tomorrow and the pub must have made a fortune! Despite it being so busy I didn't wait long for my beer as they had enough staff and even one person who just collected and washed glasses. This is a super little pub (with B&B as well) and it should not be missed. They often have ad hoc music sessions (accoustic) which are popular. mcroyal - 20 May 2014 09:38 |
| My 2nd visit here and again it’s on a Friday lunchtime. I loved this place on my 1st visit and I still feel the same after my 2nd. Choice of 3 ales on tap of which my 2 pints of Jarl were excellent. I decided to eat this time and ordered the Haggis, neaps and tatties…which was superb. Good banter with the landlord, great beer, great food, interesting building…what more do you want from a pub. Another 10/10 from me. lezford - 19 Mar 2014 12:35 |
