Review  :   This bar is tucked away just round the corner from the Festival theatre and is well worth a visit. It is very small but is very welcoming and has a good selection of beers and whiskies. There is a lot of music played in this pub with bands, duo's, soloists, etc. It also has musical instruments all round the walls which, if the bar manager let's you, you can play. I liked the atmosphere in this pub so much that I have already been back to it several times and I am only now getting round to writing this review ! The first time I was there I met a guy called 'Porridge Foot Pete", check out the video of him below. I only went in for a quiet pint, honestly !
