The best Mussels I've ever eaten - that sauce is exceptional! The haggis bon bons were a great not too scary haggis for our first try. Even the fish and chips and Macaroni cheese were significantly better than elsewhere. The staff were all friendly and helpful. The live music was lovely and not too loud which was a plus.

We watched a six nations rugby match here in one of their private booths, which comfortably seats 8 people, 12 at a push. The atmosphere was buzzing, the service good and the food OK (although the dirty fries were great).

Such a nice place in a great location. It looks great from the outside and even better inside. They have live music in the main bar, especially Friday's. This is a frequent place to have weddings as well, but that is below the public bar. I heard they might let in other people as well, for a ceilidh. Service was fast and the bar didn't fill up to the brim, so you could find places to sit.
