It does not have a separate area but the upstairs bit is quite quiet. Joni Mitchell is barred from this pub (well may be under new ownership and the owners don't know who Joni is). The white horse is the oldest pub on the high street. Across from the facade retention ( that building is a shell of its former self). There is a back lounge and might be hire-able? The same owners as aqva, Hemma etc but in the wee old man's pub half of their portfolio. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199217 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 23:54:19 +0000 Cyclingmollie 199217@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>One of my clients has just moved to Summerhall :) </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199172 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 14:37:29 +0000 jdanielp 199172@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Pricing of the tasty beer at Summerhall was surprisingly reasonable during the Festivals so I'd assume that this will continue or be even more reasonable out of season. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199084 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 08:52:37 +0000 chdot 199084@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"Central positioning"</p> <p>Summerhall should cover that for 'most' people(?)</p> <p>Large courtyard for bikes. </p> <p>"room that can be reserved.

Good sized. Nice beer and gin brewed/distilled on site. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199068 Thu, 17 Sep 2015 07:20:02 +0000 gembo 199068@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Diggers has a function suite, will do gammon sandwiches, egg sandwiches. Actually diggers is never really that busy, also has a snug that might be too small. Kay's bar has a nice separate back bit with books, Clarks bar at the bottom of Dundas street has a separate booth area. Not suggesting any of these just because I like them, merely listing. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199057 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 23:02:04 +0000 kaputnik 199057@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Back room of the Oxford Bar or side room of the Cumberland Bar make for easier discussion environments. What other hostelries similarly have rooms or areas sufficiently off the main bar? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199047 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 20:45:03 +0000 chdot 199047@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Would also suggest cut-off date of about 12th Dec. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199045 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 20:43:16 +0000 chdot 199045@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>"If we start planning now"</p> <p><em>Sounds</em> like a good idea. </p> <p>Do we have long discussions about venues?</p> <p>Akva was better than OK, but really was too noisy for easy conversations involving more than about 3 people. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199043 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 20:21:44 +0000 gembo 199043@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>If we start planning now we could have an Xmas night out? </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-199010 Wed, 16 Sep 2015 16:44:09 +0000 fimm 199010@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Meant to come back and say that it was nice to meet everybody and thank you for being nice to Boyfriend of Fimm.<br /> We walked back down to Akva on Monday (I had the day off) and had a pleasant lunch - I'm sure we will go back (we used to go to Cargo semi-regularly simply for the nice walk). </p> <p>There's a limit to what they can do with the space, I guess - we were speculating that maybe putting up some partitions would make it a bit less big and echo-y. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=15255&page=3#post-198588 Sun, 13 Sep 2015 17:53:48 +0000 gembo 198588@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>For some reason I thought that was going to be the new series of Absolutely (from the pictures).
