A very large pub with island bar. Seating downstairs and upstairs in a gallery. Crying out to sell Real Ale but it doesn't do that any more. Best try Ma Cameron's next door.
Traditional boozer with the only original island bar remaining in the Aberdeen area. A fantastic array of superb original mirrors are a wonder to behold. A pub that should have real ale, but doesn't!
