Small plates menu was creative. Really liked the brown crab and their patatas bravas. Every dish looked great. Flavours were spot on.

Been coming here for years. It&#39;s the one spot where I can actually hear my mates talk, even when the footy&#39;s on the telly. Just a proper, quiet pub.

Great spot to catch a game. The energy is just right - lively but you can still have a conversation. Staff were on it, never had to wait long for a refill.

Perfect for a pre-theatre catch-up with friends! Right across from King&#39;s Theatre, so super convenient. Service was quick even though it was packed &ndash; we didn&#39;t feel rushed at all.

Managed to snag a table on a packed Saturday night, which was a win. The outdoor area was lovely, strung with those soft fairy lights. Drinks menu looked good, but they&#39;d run out of mint for my mojito. Shame.

A decent spot for a casual night out. Plenty of screens for the game and a pool table kept our group happy. The Sunday roast was pretty good, though the beef was a touch dry. Fine for what it is.

The shisha was so smooth! We had a big group and there was plenty of space to just chill. The chai was freshly made, which was a nice touch. A really relaxed spot.

The karaoke host here is brilliant, keeps the energy up all night. Saw some genuinely talented regulars take the mic, made for a really fun Friday vibe.

A cosy Scottish pub with local cask ales. The staff were very kind, which made it a relaxed spot for a quiet pint.

The staff were so lovely, really made us feel welcome. Food was spot on, especially the lamb shank - fell right off the bone. Prices are fair, which is a nice surprise for the area.

Decent food and the app ordering is handy. Fed three adults and a child for just over &pound;30, which is pretty good.

The tasting board was a good way to try different wines without committing to a full glass. Found a couple I liked.

First time trying their Bakewell tart. Simple but really good. The pastry was flaky and the jam had a nice tartness. Prices are decent too, especially with the daily specials.

The staff are really nice. Zaym and Karen knew all about the cocktails and were just up for a chat. Made the evening chill.

Great choice of beers on tap, especially the local ales. Had a couple of pints of the bitter, which was spot on. The whisky list is decent too. A proper pub for a proper drink.

Great spot for a pre-show bite near the Hydro. The Asian Hot Dog was a fun surprise, really hit the spot.

Been coming here for years, and the pizza cone is still my go-to. Always hits the spot on a sunny day when I grab a seat outside. The consistency is what keeps me coming back.

Great cask ales, especially Scottish ones. Nine handpumps, always something new. Perfect for a quick pint.

Looks small from outside but spacious inside, feels fresh and clean. The food came out quickly. I really liked the salad, the greens were crisp and the dressing was light. Portion was just right for lunch.

Lovely little pub, really welcoming. The staff were so nice and chatty, which made it feel like a proper local spot. Drinks were reasonably priced too.

Loved the vibe here. It&#39;s cozy and the decor has so many cool little details. The music was just right for a chilled-out evening with friends. Really nice spot to relax.

Busy spot with a real student vibe, but the staff are genuinely warm and friendly.

Nick was super helpful squeezing us in when it was packed. The whole place just feels clean and calm, which I really liked. Makes it easy to relax even when it&#39;s busy.

Popped in for a quick bite. The classic burger was spot on, really juicy. Triple-cooked chips were crispy and fluffy inside. Good portion for the price.

Proper pub with solid food. Spirits are a generous pour, which is nice.

The Negroni and Amaretto Sour were spot on. Ben and Moriarty behind the bar really know their stuff. Just a solid place for a well-made drink.

Loved the old-fashioned feel of the bar. It&#39;s right in the city centre, but felt so quiet and secluded inside. A peaceful spot to enjoy a drink.

Been coming here for years, and it&#39;s always the cask ale that brings me back. Sure, the selection can be a bit limited sometimes, but they keep it fresh and well-kept. That&#39;s what matters to me.

Great spot for a casual catch-up! Their whisky selection is solid, and the drinks are fairly priced for the neighbourhood.
