Actually, the pub is handy for the Playhouse but not so for the Picture house. Doable but a pain to walk to the venue with a full bladder...
It just won't do

Very well remembered. The Pinot Grigio in there was excellent.Turkey Troter wrote:
The Haymarket Bar was the watering hole of choice a couple of years back - Pinot Grigio on draft I believe.
In fact, the Pinot Grigio in Edinburgh and Glasgow is far superior than down here. It has more body and is much less acidic.
Anyway, where shall we all meet ?

To be honest I'm not really arsed where we meet as long as there's some decent ale on - Not paying £3+ for some shitty lager then getting into a fight. Ale or wine - we deserve no less.

Pinot Grigio Ca’ Lunghetta, Italy Clean as a whistle with
that particular Italian nutty finish.
£4.30/ 250ml
£4.30 for a large glass of Pinot. That's £2 cheaper than down here !
The Guildford Arms - we salute you.

I think it would be wise to negotiate the price of a bottle
