pittsburgh phil Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 I used to frequent the Anchor in Granton Edinburgh. Dog friendly but my God it'd make The Grill look high class. A truly wild pub. I think this is extremely high up on the criteria for a good pub. Does anyone know of any shite pubs that allow dogs in? I'm yet to find one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could it have been Chaplins? I stayed in Praia about 3 years ago and that one became an instant favourite. Nice lady that ran the place too. I remember I asked if she had wifi - she said no, but she was able to tell me that the crappy Indian joint next door did have and she kindly provided the password for it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Gifted Sub Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 The grill is the worst pub in Perth by some distance, most normal people avoid it. If you like a pub with prostitutes, travellers, scumbags, druggies, transgenders and general lowlifes it's the place for you. I like it because no c**t bothers you, they all have other things to worry about What’s the address? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just ask someone when in Perth, they'll likely look disgusted while pointing you In the right direction. Or you could just google it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8MileBU Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Whistlefield Inn near Dunoon and the restaurant at Portavadie Marina are two discoveries in recent times serving very dece scran. The ribeye steak from the Kailyard at Dunblane Hydro is probably the tastiest steak I’ve ever eaten though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been a long while since I've been there mind you. Used to be the sort of place where you'd go for a drink and could come out with a handgun if you wanted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dumbarton is fairly shite for pubs and restaurants IMO, I only ever really "eat out" at the Abottsford Hotel or the Glencairn, but neither are particularly fancy. There's a wee place in the High Street called the Grill on the Bridge which has excellent food, but it's opening hours are limited and it's a BYOB effort. Shitey weatherspooons type pubs everywhere in the high street which I avoid whenever I can. I prefer the "old man boozer" so the Stags Head or the Waverly (run by Scottish football Icon Drew Busby) are the best I'd say. The Dining Room in West Bridgend (when it actually opens) is very good. I've heard the Indian in the High Street is good but I've never been. The Abbotsford is good again after going quite badly downhill for a couple of years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittsburgh phil Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Some people in there have had national media coverage, not just well known locally.Still not the worst pub I've been in, the place that's now The Lioness Of Leith? Absolute shooting gallery filled with junkies, had curtains drawn at all times, twilight at midday. Mad pub. Like Dawn Of The Dead.Or The Gunner's, that was proper rough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingo ohne Flamingo Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Golf Inn in Prestwick is excellent, cracking Steak Pie and doesn't cost you the earth like the nearby Elliotts (Which is also very decent, but expensive) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
