Directions

You want to visit - You have this in

A warm and friendly bar established in 1995 in the former All Saints Parsonage with many of the traditional features maintained.

The extensive range of real ales are generally from UK-wide independent breweries. Frequent tap takeovers and Meet the Brewer events are held. The wide range of single malt whiskies, gins and rums does justice to the outstanding gantry.

Burgers and other simple dishes are served including vegan options.

NOTE: The access to the toilets is down a long and winding metal staircase. This may be a problem for people with limited mobility.

Children under 16 are not admitted.

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