Adam Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Not been in it since it was taken over but Elders was a decent enough shop too. Was in Elders once in all my time living here, after football maybe seven years ago, and was just full of neds. Regularly go past it on my way home, but just tucked out of the way really! Did you ever make it to the pub that's shut down near Causewayside Street? That always looks terrible when I pass it, but I don't ever remember it being open...

I was a care assistant for a guy in the Fullerton Park estate for 9 years and never once did I see it open. Apparently the guy who owned it wasn't particularly interested in the place and it wasn't unknown for him to open the pub for a few days then leave it closed for a few weeks. From the exterior of the place, it looks a midden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The east end is quality for proper pubs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy_K_97 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 The quality of pubs in Killie isn't exactly brilliant. I used to love Paris Match but I'm rarely in these days. The owner's made some changes making it less dark and gallic (more TVs with shite programmes on for one) and now it attracts a lot more spice boys. Fanny By Gaslight and the Brass & Granite are still decent enough though, I find myself in them more often than not if I'm out in the town. Was in Aviemore last week and stumbled upon the Doo Below - good choice of lagers and ales, decent decor and good barstaff who enjoyed a chat about beer and tunes. Will definitely be back when I'm there next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dominique Malonga Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Best pub in Dalkeith, as you say. Spot on.I've been in the ship a few times on a Sunday and it's got a really weird vibe to it imo, it's like the bar in Star Wars. The smell is disgusting as well.

Dominique Malonga Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Aye, The Ship's not really my cup of tea. I've only been in a few times but every time it's been full of people that, for some reason or another, are not quite right. I quite like the Dean Tavern in Nitten but most of my mates can't stand it. It's murder for watching football though, there's hardly any seats in there that has a good view of a tv.

Only downside is it's frequented by the very loud, look at me, Batchan. Twat of a human. 8 hours ago, invergowrie arab said: I quite like the Old Ship A bit smelly. My ex missus also frequents there.

Auld Hoose is indeed full of minks. The Bee Bar is like a small Tam O Shanter without the decent wallhangings but just as much travellers. The Kirky? You're having a fucking laugh. Greyfriars is a smelly cupboard of a place frequented by Pete fucking Wishart, say no more. In fact I cannot think of a decent bar in Perth. Green room at a push maybe. DO NOT GO DRINKING IN PERTH FOLKS, IT'S A SHITEHOLE. ^^^used to drink in the Mallard in North Muirton til it shut..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcat1990 Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Living just off Great Western Road means I have Inn Deep, The Doublet and The Belle all within short walking distance. Variety Bar on Sauchihall St is my personal favourite in all of Glasgow but maybe seen as too "hipster" by some on here, although I'd argue all the annoying hipster types congregate in Sleazies or the Art School bar.

I've always hated Inn Deep, even in it's previous guises (Deep Blue?), I enjoy a beer in the Doublet if i'm ever down that way. The Belle has always seemed like it was missing something. I enjoy The Variety Bar, but I absolutely hate that bit of Sauchiehall St now. I spent far too much time there as a youngster, but the place just depresses me now.
