Lovely little place, I loved the decor and the staff were all very attentive, looked to have a nice selection of cocktails but I was only here for lunch so didn't get to sip any ????

Adam Johnson

The cocktails are nice - the smoke infused old fashioned is just cool. The service made me long for the snappy response of a telegram service, though - sometimes highwaymen interrupt it.

Try the open lasagne . I'm not sure if qualify as lasagne but it tasted great. Recommended!

Lisa Nuske

A bit grotty but a nice-ish place to grab the Sunday papers and read up on the latest Scottish news (but not sure about the slightly odd selection of Latino dance tunes ...)

Marie-Anne Ramond
