    The Laurieston and The Old Toll Bar are consistently my favourites (and for many others) for different reasons.

    The Griffin was bought by the owner of Isle of Skye brewery - prices pretty high for cask considering they make it themselves!

    @HarveyMushman888 Месяц назад

    Well I appreciate these videos but I'm ambivalent at best. It seems strange to go to a pub and not order an indigenous drink. Why no Scottish cask conditioned ale or a whisky? While most of these pubs have original historic interiors ultimately the atmosphere comes from the customers and bar staff so if you buy drinks and sit in the corner by yourselves you won't experience much of the atmosphere. Btw if you have been in Scotland 4 years and have not done a pub crawl in these bars before you are definitely not "locals"..

    Sadly you have no idea of Glasgow pubs! The Bon Accord and the PotStill are both specialist whisky pubs which you never mentioned. You seem to base your assessment on cider which the majority of Scots don’t drink and I’m a Scottish man living in Devon who loves cider. Yet another shallow attempt at fame!
