Carters Bar
This is a small pub with a good crowd just around the corner from the flat, our 'local'.
A really nice bar which can easily be missed given its location hidden 'under the stairs'!

Under The Stairs
3A Merchant StA really nice bar which can easily be missed given its location hidden 'under the stairs'!
Great small, slightly odd bar. Not for big groups but ideal for a quiet pint with a few locals - a personal favourite of mine!
Burlington Bertie

Bigger and busier than Burlington Berties with a big selection of whiskeys and ales. Ideal to sample Scottish drink (and food).

A lovely old cinema where you can get a beer and the popcorn doesn't cost a million pounds! It only shows a few films but they are carefully selected for their quality!
