#141. Under the Stairs, 3A Merchant St, Edinburgh

As befits its name, this bar is under the George IV Bridge, and below street level. It reminds one of The Mint from back home, but it's actually quite a bit nicer. The service was shambolic, however. After being served a rancid pint of something on tap that I'd never seen nor heard of before, I switched to Wessex Craft Brewers' Slap and Tickle Ale by the bottle.
