Edinburgh,
West Bow Street (nr Grassmarket)
One of my all time favourite pubs. not just in Edinburgh, but anywhere.
This is another fantastic example of what a good pub is. Strong selection on the pumps, a host of excellent whiskies and a pleasant wood paneled bar. Despite it’s proximity to Edinburgh’s tourist heart you can usually find a space in the Bow for a quick pint on your way across Edinburgh.
But when they are good they offer a refuge, a place to meet, a time to enjoy the company of others.
The public house, coaching inn, coffee shop and tavern have been a meeting place for hundreds of years. They have reflected changes in social norms, been a mainstay of our social interactions and given rise to ideas and conversation that has shaped our world. This is not a list of all the places I have had a pint. It is a list of places I have enjoyed a pint.
