3rd November according to Edinburgh Live, being taken over as a Sports Bar, I doubt that the prices will remain the same. 😥

Quite a sore one for a lot of Leith's old timers.
I agree and was saying that to someone the other day who was rejoicing in this news.

I'm no lover of Wetherspoons but the Foot of the Walk has a cask beer for £1.99 a pint (usually Belhaven 80) and you can get fish and chips and a pint for a tenner. A fair few of their regulars will now be forced to go to bars that are charging £4.50 minimum a pint or will just start having a beer in the house and losing their social contact altogether.

Pubs like that serve a purpose and on the limited occasions I was in it was nowhere near as bad as some people make out.
