My favourite Dundee boozer ;-) Lovely wee place serving great beer
Excellent pub, best in Dundee. Lovely whiskey selection!
Dog friendly. This is my kind of bar. Massive selection of drinks with staff who know about what they’re serving and are willing to talk you through the entire bar. Great place for a drink or 3. Small, original and cosy
Great traditional pub with real ale and a very warm and friendly welcome from staff. Had a lovely drink in here on Christmas eve and Christmas day. Will definitely return soon.

Amazing LGB friendly little pub the bar staff were fabulous so nice and chatty our first time here we will definitely be back
Given the current situation they are doing their best and being very careful. Beer is awesome as ever so if you feel you can you should book a table and give them some trade. I had a sour, a fruity, a stout and a lager - all top notch drinks.
