New Pubs and Restaurants
BrewDog - Opened September 2019
A great new addition arrived on South Street, the BrewDog bar and restaurant. Owned by the BrewDog brewery, headquartered up the road in Aberdeen, several locations have opened in Scotland, England and Europe over the last year, including in the Edinburgh airport, Edinburgh and Stirling.
BrewDog features about 20 beer taps with several of their own and a few guest brews in a variety of styles. They also serve wine, spirits, and beer drinks. Their menu has several vegan options as well as traditional bar favorites such as wings, burgers, and salads. Try the Zombie Cake stout for a unique taste sensation or buy a few cans of Punk IPA to put in the fridge.
