Bennets Bar

Original 1830s Edinburgh pub. Wonderful panelling and stained glass. Good, well kept ale selection too. Right next to the Kings Theatre and loads of bus routes through Tollcross. A lovely place to meet friends or read a book.

Is everyone who wrote here missing the greatness of this place?. Old Man's pub??? What about one of the greatest single malt whiskey bars on the planet! Floor to ceiling, the length of the entire bar are more singles than any man could sample in a year. In my student days, they served Belhaven, now mostly Caledonian beersl Last year, I met a guy in California who asked me if I had ever been there. An institution!

Great atmosphere, fine service, good beer and beautiful decor. The waiter was new and the drinks he made was not fantastatic, but the rest compensated :-)

A great pint of Guinness and a traditional patience required .... Well worth it!

Interesting features first pint ok second looked flat l thing the new girl needs more training on the hand pumps.
