Cross Borders Brewery's second pub was opened in Nov 2021 with 4 cask and 16 craft keg lines and was an instant hit with locals. Named after the former Eastway cinema at the top of Easter Road, it's a good addition to the Easter Road ale trail. Untapped screens show what's available. Cask ale deals are available Sunday to Wednesday.

The L shaped bar is on a split level, and the décor is muted, with relatively low levels of lighting, to aid relaxation. There is bar seating to complement the pews against the walls.

Meals consist of various types of Hot Dogs, Macaroni and Cheese, Nachos and Grilled Sandwiches.

Children are not admitted.
