JULY 2025 Pub has two working hand pumps, but only one real ale on at any time.

MAY 2025 - Real ale has been reprieved! Support required from CAMRA members and other real ale drinkers otherwise it might disappear again.

MARCH 2025 - No real ale on the three handpumps. Pub states that they are to be taken out due to poor sales.

Large pub with a modern contemporary interior that is divided into two bars linked by a staircase. The lower bar to the front has multiple screens for sports addicts. The upper bar is quieter and more comfortably furnished. There is a panoramic view of Haymarket Station through the glazed frontage or from the outside terrace. The pub is popular with Tynecastle and Murrayfield sports fans.

NOTE: Alcoholic drinks are not served until 11am on Sunday.

Information for this venue is provided by the Edinburgh & South East Scotland Branch of CAMRA
