Horse Shoe

Down a small side street near Central station. Identified by CAMRA as having a nationally important historic interior, this pub has the longest continuous bar in Scotland at 104 feet 3 inches. The horseshoe theme is continued from the shape of the bar to the bespoke mirrors and other artefacts. Note the mosaic floor, carved wooden wall panelling, painted tiles and illuminated stained glass ceiling area. Other interesting features include the large wooden casks on the gantry which once dispensed the pub's own brand of whisky and the recurring "JYW" motif of one of the previous owners. Two guests from all over Britain augment the regular ales. Good value food in the bar and upstairs lounge/diner.
