I like the Grassmarket on occasion for a drink after work. Hardly drank inside pubs in the grassmarket even when I lived there but it's always good outside on a sunny day.

Rugster Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 8 hours ago, ICTJohnboy said: He's got the Phoenix leased out now and is desperately trying to get out of the licensed trade. I believe he's now bought a B&B in Inverness. The Castle Tavern has improved immeasurably since he sold it last year. Check out their Trip Advisor reviews : https://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Restaurant_Review-g186543-d2170722-Reviews-The_Castle_Tavern-Inverness_Scottish_Highlands_Scotland.html You think Number 27 is one of the best restaurants in Inverness so I'm comfortable disagreeing with you on this one.

Number 27 is one of the best restaurants in Inverness - very good value, with seriously good food. Again check out the TA reviews. Castle Tavern is a great pub which offers above average pub grub - great for a night out and the beer garden with TV screen is good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the Grassmarket on occasion for a drink after work. I genuinely hate that pub. Everytime I've been in it I've wanted to leave after 5 minutes, no idea why. Anyway, if I was going beer gardens in Edinburgh my top 5 would be Salisbury Arms Teuchters Landing The Outhouse The Cumberland Bar The Blackbird Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe The Hype Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Not many in Stirling Kikted kangaroo. City centre, struggle to get a seat when the sun is out, great sun trap but it's the first port of call for everyone it seems as soon as it' a nice day. Find myself in here more often than not when out for a drink and they do great food as well. Birds and bees. Fantastic place to eat and drink, located in causewayhead so just outside of the city centre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 Ship inn Elie. Brilliant location. Could be full of ya ya English types though during summer. I remember when it was a shithole with benches from the school and burst couches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at their website, they are building a little glass fronted extension at the beer garden for private functions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MONKMAN Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 The steamboat Inn near southerness best one I've been too , the beer garden literally rolls down onto the beach. As you say, can walk straight onto the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only reason to read the Trip Advisor reviews for the Number 27 is to see the complete Heads Gone from the owner every time there is even the slightest bit of negative feedback.

Heart of Northern Posted February 8, 2018 Share Posted February 8, 2018 A little off the beaten track. The Anchor has this modern industrial vista. Admittedly the beer garden is lacking a little more seating than would be ideal but the management have been concentrating on the gastro food side recently. The landlord assured me that once they have functional toilets he'll add more seating with cushions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the Granton Tap closed, the clientele that frequented that place carried more swords than Custers cavalry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
