New pub for the Edinlush?

[sherman]

It has been discussed at a couple of the previous Edinlushes. Should we look for a better less studenty pub for the Edinlush to be held at from after this one? Hamiltons was nice until it changed.
Hamiltons

GreenMantle

Southsider

The Auld Hoose
http://www.theauldhoose.co.uk/


Ideally what the Edinlush is looking for is a pub like Hamiltons with disabled access and serving food until at least 9pm and reasonably central in Edinburgh.

Not being from Edinburgh I wouldn't know where to start looking really other than one of the big pubs like a weatherspoons on George street.

Any ideas fellow Edinlushers?

Cameo in Lieth is a good place for food and a beer.

The Southsider would be perfect if the kitchen stayed open later.

Auld Hoose is good with big food but loud...

Access to the Standing Order is grim.

Holyrood 9a is nae bad with a burgery menu.

The Regent didn't burn down but I'm not sue about access - sherm, Kay?

Cask and Barrel is wheelie friendly but I'm not sure it does food.

I'd be up for giving the Cameo a go, if only to pin down the mythical Mr Trophy...

The regent has a flat entrance and floor inside just not sure about toilet facilities. Would have to double check on that or meet you there for a pint one night.

Sounds like we need a field trip

Cameo's got stairs to the loos. I think it's flat from the restaurant, but one would have to go out the bar, up the road, round the corner and through said restaurant.

Regent loo is flat access, but a tight, non-aligned double door scenario. And I'm not talking about the fact that it's a gay pub

Brass Monkey on Leith Walk? No idea about their food offerings.

Local knowledge from across the seas!

We may have to go with Kay's field trip plan...

Quite right. One can never do too much research hic!

[sherman]

Kay and me went to investigate the Holyrood 9a last night and it would make for a very acceptable edinlush location. loads of different beers for everyone to try.

we also checked out Th regent and decided to discount it due to lack of toilet facilities otherwise it is a very nice pub with a good menu and good choice of beer.

I'm cueing up the places in my head that I want to visit when I pop back at the end of next month

That's worthy of an Edinthing for sure!
