wonderful stay!

friendly women nice pint friendly staff

the women at the bar were very friendly and funny, they were cute. i enjoyed a nice pint of caledonian best. it would be nice to have a few more beers of choice. the staff was efficient and friendly.

the meals seemed overpriced. the fish and chips were nicely presented and of very good quality. however, the shepherd's pie included a small salad and a side of pickled red cabbage. the meat of the pie was ok, but the mash was watery.
