Free jukebox!

If you reallllly need more reasons to come here, I guess you can keep reading.

They do their food from locally-sourced ingredients, and the munchies we ordered (and the sight of the mains that some other people ordered around us, cause you know, we're nosy like that) were quite good. They've got games downstairs you can grab and play with your friends, though we did turn...more

Now, I know most of you are like...Sarah, what are you on? it's just a game from the 90s that no one plays anymore. Well, friends...you are wrong. Ever played a game of drunk Jenga?

The Old Red Cow has about four cask pumps and c. 12 keg taps. You'll find stuff from the likes of BrewDog, Camden, Kernel, Harviestoun, etc. There is also a large bottle list, though most of the stuff on it is fairly pedestrian.The bar has two...more
