Review : This is a very welcoming pub with a good selection of beers, wines and spirits. It has obviously had a lot of money spent on the decor, (quite an urban feel to the down stairs bar), the upstairs restaurant had more of a relaxed feel to it with it's long solid tables. The staff were friendly and took time to chat to us when pouring our drinks, although this could have been because it wasn't that busy, (we were in on a Thursday night). The drinks menu is well worth a look with information about almost every drink that is served there, where it is from, alcoholic content, etc. This pub also claims to be the oldest in this area of Glasgow, dating back to the time of Charles II.
It was the most expensive pub we went to, but I enjoyed spending time here and would definitely come back.
