Old School House
Little Belmont Street, Aberdeen AB10 1JG
A former Academy converted to large pub with central, square, island bar. There is an additional entrance from the Academy Shopping Centre which is more suitable for disabled access than the ramp at the front door. Used to have unusual, upstairs ale cellar, viewable from the balcony, but beer is now in conventional cellar. Was originally an ale house having a large range of real ales but became gradually reduced to one and now hand-pumps have been removed following a recent refurbishment (mid July 2015). A victim, it would seem, of Belhaven's policy to install craft ales from Goose Island and BrewDog. Free wi-fi and a quiz each Tuesday night. Meals served all day from noon till 9pm.
Under The Hammer
11 North Silver Street, Aberdeen AB10 1RJ
After closure for well over a year due to Covid restrictions, the pub has undergone a major re-furbishment, costing a reported £200,00.00, and reopened on Friday 5th November 2021 by the local McGintys pub group and selling initially 2 x Timothy Taylor beers. It is proposed to perhaps add one or two local beers to the range in time. Food consists of sharing platters and cocktails also feature. Located in a quiet side street near Golden Square just minutes off Union Street, this popular pub is located in a basement next to Milne's auction house - hence the name.

No longer selling real ale but now doing Drygate key-keg.
