This Pub is Closed Long Term

*** Brewdog closed this, their flagship bar, in late July 2025, and it is not known if they are selling the bar or what will happen to the premises. On 12th September, BrewDog announced that the lease was available for a monthly rent of £2,500.00 ***

Previously the Marischal Bar, Brewdog's original bar has a stripped back industrial style interior with graffiti style artwork adorning some of the walls.

Bench seating is prevalent with two couches provided either side of the glass front wall. Specialising in craft Scottish beers with world-wide guests on rotation. (No idea how this statement appeared here!)

Cheese boards and handmade pies provide sustenance and it is dog friendly.

Live music is provided most weekends.

Has been established in August 2022 that no real ale has been available for several years. (Don't know who added this comment as it never soldcask beer!)
