This 200 year old former coaching inn (Grade C listed) reopened in November 2024 with new owners following a major refurbishment. The welcoming bar is now joined directly with the former lounge room to form a large open plan area with a log burning stove in the corner.

The separate restaurant at the rear specialises in local produce with an intimate, relaxed, candlelit atmosphere.

Pizzas are supplied from the adjacent artisan pizzeria.

The secluded beer garden with a gazebo and patio can be enjoyed during the summer.

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