Bow Bar review Rate it
This small and simple one-room pub has one of the largest and most interesting ranges of single malt Scotch, not just in the city but in Scotland. The Port Ellen distillery on Islay was mothballed in 1983, for instance, but the Bow may still have several different bottlings on offer. There's also a good choice of cask ales, and on a typical night your only problem might be finding a seat.
