This review is taken from the current (2012) edition.
After a few name changes over the last decade, this venue seems to have finally found its feet as the Bath Street Pony, now enjoying its third year in the guide. Ironically, the décor hasn’t changed since previous incarnations – the contrast of open brickwork, light wood and lots of glass. Always cool and modern. Their approach is triple-pronged: a cocktail bar with lots of offers, playing soul and funk, and serving Mediterranean food that wouldn’t be out of place in a bistro. To start, salt and pepper squid is both cooked and seasoned really well – hinting at a deft kitchen. Sure enough, pork Milanese is properly crispy on the outside, juicy within, with a hint of lemon, while tuna fillet is served simple: capers and sliced chilli placed on top, so the fish comes through. Great cooking – and the pre-theatre deal, offering every dish on the menu, is great value.
- High point: More character than many menus in this section
- Low point: Walking by all the other Bath St bars to get here!

Six of us recently dined here upon seeing Joanna Blythman's review.
Seated in a booth at the window onto Bath street we thoroughly enjoyed our evening. Good food, great cocktails then as we were finishing a band got the place going. Definitely be back!

I cannot imagine what Joanna Blythman was thinking when she awarded the 8/10 in the Sunday Herald for this place. I can only think as it was the lunch deal she was reveiwing it may indeed be decent value but it couldn't have been the a la carte dinner, unless she rates vague, confused service, miserly portions of underwhelming bar food and incorrect drinks orders worthy of 8/10.
Avoid (unless perhaps at lunchtime).
