Not yet. Booking is proving a bit problematic, though I think they do walk ins.
They do now do walk ups, my mate went there last week, 2 seperate queues, bookings and non bookings, £7.20 a pint though is a bit excessive for his own local brewed beer. |

What kind of bars are you looking for out of interest? Im in a Hearts WhatsApp group so happy to get some recommendations from the locals for Edinburgh if you like?
Real ale pubs and ones with history of interesting decor. We're better served for Edinburgh than Glasgow, but I think Edinburgh is better served than Glasgow anyway. I know the Cafe Royal and the Guildford, for example, and like those. |

Anyone been to Clarksons pub The Farmers Dog.
Nope, grew up a (long) stones throw from there and had our 6th form leavers do back when it was a restaurant (its never been a pub before despite what the papers and Clarkson claim! Its not in fucking Burford neither!!). Seen a few reviews saying its OK if you like queuing and getting assaulted by the prices in a farm shop! They do now do walk ups, my mate went there last week, 2 seperate queues, bookings and non bookings, £7.20 a pint though is a bit excessive for his own local brewed beer.
Pretty much par for the course, saw a piece last week which suggested that average pint prices in Witney were the highest in the Country, even higher than London! |

For me though its that he brews his own beer, its his own pub and its got about 5 miles distribution distance. Its milking the masses though, something Jezza is pretty good at. |

Contrary to that, the Hawkstone brewery tour at £24 was OK.
Not much to see, but a reasonable amount to drink given that's about 3.5 pub pints

Ah misinterpreted you post so I've deleted and will start again....  Its not a pub though is it, its a tourist attraction, albeit god knows why, and they always come with a premium, and in his defence, come on its at least 15 miles to Bourton (where he bought someone else’s brewery) from this place  What actually surprises me is why TVP don't whack a patrol car on Asthall Barrow roundabout permanently as its a pub users can only ever drive to, possibly a pretty handy source of convictions. Each to their own anyway, if you go hope you enjoy it! |

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit...

It’s been a while since I’ve been there but think this ticks the boxes. Famous karaoke venue upstairs https://www.thehorseshoebarglasgow.co.uk/#/ |

Due to its popularity it’s probably best going during the week whenever you have a day off. |
