Kay’s Bar

A pub no bigger than your sitting room amidst the affluent surroundings of the New Town is always going to seem like a fish out of water, yet it’s Kay’s homely approach which keeps regulars coming back. A staunch rugby boozer, it features a coal fire and simple lunches of mince and tatties, haggis or pie, beans and chips between noon and 2.30pm. There are around 50 malts and seven cask ales behind the bar, and the in the library in the back room guests can read the books or join in a game of cribbage or Scrabble.
