Large, cavernous pub with a distinctly Scottish theme. Named after the Bothy Ballad, McGintys Meal 'n' Ale whaur the pig went on the spree! A plaque with the words used to adorn a wall at the top of the stairs leading to the toilet - it is hoped that this may again be displayed in the future.

There is a balcony area which can provide an element of peacefulness whilst games are shown on the many TV screens. Also between the main entrance and the main bar area there are a number of booths along the corridor and many cosy seating areas are also at the back of the pub, beyond the bar.

Serves excellent pub food all day. No longer has a house ale..

Underwent a refurbishment in the middle of January 2017 with changes to the entry corridor and lots of new shelves of bottles behind the bar.
