Dammit, thanks both. We’re in Edinburgh this weekend and it’s one of the only places I know that has Paolozzi on draft!

Another vote for Paolozzi Bar @ Forest Road, I was there with the fam at the start of "eat out to help out", the food is outstanding (Italian) and the beer ain't bad either! I normally drink the Paolozzi but the Untitled IPA is not too shabby a pint.

The Guildford Arms has that I'm sure. :aok:

They also have an Australian waitress who makes "pork and ale" sound like "crocodile" and end up in a lot of confusion when 2 orders of crocodile sausages were confidently ordered. :greengrin

Same family that had Nonna’s kitchen in Morningside, had some of their pizzas as a home delivery. Lovely

Thanks all! Paolozzi bar it is - I'd heard about it but wasn't sure if it had opened yet or not. Will give them a wee visit tomorrow afternoon :greengrin

As fate would have it, we're staying at the Premier Inn just down from Brewhemia this weekend, so cheers for the tip! Tank/unfiltered too :thumbsup:
