http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34565 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34565 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34272 This is part of the Belhaven chain and has a very good value drinks menu. Additionally the food menu is very reasonably priced and very tasty - a step above a lot of pubs.
In the less busy times of the week, there are great deals to be had on food and drink.
They even have a 'Man V Food' challenge on Tuesdays!
The pub is situated on the popular Shore area of Edinburgh (Leith) and feels like a pub that should be in a port with all the nautical memorabilia on the walls.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34272 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34225 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34225 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34199 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34199 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34179 Along the way there are plenty of idyllic picnic spots and opportunities to cool off in the River Avon. You can also take a ride on a heritage steam train at Bitton, or just enjoy watching it puff past. A couple of decent pubs provide refreshments; it’s worth taking the turning for Saltford and heading to the Jolly Sailor to sit in the garden overlooking Saltford Lock supping a local ale. This can be a destination in itself, located 9 miles from Bristol. Otherwise, continue on to Bath and spend a few hours wandering around this pretty spa town. For those who feel this is quite enough exercise for one day, trains run frequently back to Bristol, taking just 10 minutes.
The path can get busy but never unpleasantly so as it remains at a comfortable three metre width for the duration. There are also no significant hills to contend with, meaning it has all the makings of a fun, free and active day out, suitable for all ages and levels – the perfect way to celebrate the arrival of longer days.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34179 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34161 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34161 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34143 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/34143 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33994 On the menu are British favourites such as great roasts for Sunday lunch, and there are more adventurous offerings; such as fillet of Gilt Head Bream with fennel and lime dressing. There are plenty of veggie options too.
The Tiger is a great place to chill out with a cool drink, wake up with a coffee, or cheer on the team with mates.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33994 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33813 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33813 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33421 Have been here many times before and as usual it did not disappoint. Good food, friendly service and great value. There is a wide choice on the menu (and on specials board).
My wife had lentil soup as well as mackerel pate with oatcakes while I had the homemade burger. Portion sizes were big and together with two drinks only set us back £22.
This place never seems to be in various restaurant listing publications but it is well known to people from the Leith area as a place to be treasured.
Kitchen open 10 am - 10pm.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33421 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33415 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33415 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33390 On Saturday nights the bar is packed as they have live music. Even when it is quieter it is nice to sit down with a nice pint.
Family friendly.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33390 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33317 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33317 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32902 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32902 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32834 Sarah and her team create a homely atmosphere with log fire, generous portions of well cooked food and a good range of ales.
Well priced too!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32834 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32750 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32750 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32749 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32749 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32638 The Harbour Inn is a great place to sample Brain's bitter, a creamy, nutty brew. We enjoyed the fish and chips out in the sheltered beer garden and soaked up the last rays of the October sun while admiring the little boats stranded high and dry at low tide.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32638 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32635 It's a great place to try Welsh bitters and admire all the music memorabilia: framed pictures of Kiss, Jimi Hendrix and others line the walls and we didn't dare take on the locals at pool, after spotting all the trophies in a glass cabinet!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32635 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32633 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/32633
