Scotlands Roughest Pubs

went to the canny mans in morningside the other day with mrs b. and my mum! needless to say we didn't get served! it's legendary for that, not serving people. it's like norman bates' parlour inside, stuffed animals and curios all over the place.

 

 

Is it still owned by the same arsehole? Used to live opposite that place yeeears ago so got told a few stories. The guy used to ask people to shift their cars from the car park if a nicer car turned up - He'd actually insist, even when the folk were eating. He also turfed my uncle out for being English, then invited him back in when he found out he was an accountant?! Saw Alex McLeish walk in, then immediately walk out one time as well - Never found out what happened there.

the safeway is now a waitrose, and there's a few charity shoppies that I'm sure the good people of morningside will try their hardest to make sure their leases are not renewed.

 

Edinburgh now has a handful of working class areas, around the football grounds.

 

stockbridge - gone

Newington and marchmont are students...and so on.

 

gorgie and easter road area are all that's left, everybody's gone to the suburbs. Leith doesn't count, and if you're a leither it definitely doesn't count because it's not Edinburgh. Leith has at least 3 Michelin starred restaurants anyway!

had a wee deek at the article. seems what happened is it's a scheme pub with its regulars and a few people weren't, a volatile mix, high spirits, stares were exchanged and things were said then all hell breaks loose. I'm some detective!

 

in any city in general, I'd feel much safer in a city centre pub instead of one further out. same with all the wee towns round about Edinburgh, some ropey wee hun places.

 

whae's this cunt?

Found that the roughest bars are always the best as no cunt steps out of line,

 

Then you go to the snoppy pub / clubs in town and have fan boys acting the goat - which i find really irritating.

You know where you stand in a rough pub, you wont get battered for no reason. Not through experience anyways.
