Overview
Never disappoints. Only loses a point for the heavy door to the loos.
Transport & Parking
Taxi can drop off right outside. Buses on George IV Bridge.
Access
From the pavement on George IV Bridge there are two wide doors which open inwards. I'm a vandal so I just drive the scooter at the door to open it, although to be honest the staff are so switched on they usually seem to sense me coming and open the door. There are various tables at differing heights, with plenty of room between them.
Toilets
The loos are through a quite heavy door, but generally a member of staff appears in a flash, seemingly from out of nowhere, to open it for you. There's gents, a ladies and a separate accessible loo. The door to the accessible loo is slightly awkward to open if you're on your own (because it's so big - you have to reverse for miles!), but there's generally someone around to help. Loads of room inside. It's always been clean when I've been there.
Staff
Staff are all fabulous. Helpful and friendly, and seemingly having a sixth sense to know when you're going to need a door to be opened!
Anything else you wish to tell us?
Always a good bet. Great selection of gins and tonics. Excellent pub grub, including 'Locally caught Scottish haggis fried in batter, served with Irn Bru chutney' ;)
