Fantastic Pub, we'll be returning soon! This Establishment does not serve meals, however, there's tasty snacks!

Best pub in town and has been for decades. A survivor amongst the more "trendy" or "low cost" bars in town because it's always friendly, has plenty of staff to serve the customers, and just knows what an honest to goodness pub should be without changing for he he'll of it.

Easy still the best pub on the high street. Always has been, always will be. Even with higher prices than others bars in the area, it's always a winner. Staff are always polite and fun and the atmosphere is always a good vibe. The penny farthing never disappoints.

Great wee pub. Came in here twice in the last 2 months and it won't be my last visit. Fast service, even when busy. Friendly service. Nice to go with friends and chat, but don't be surprised if one of the locals joins in the convo or your dancing. Its just so friendly. I took my foreign friends in there too and the overwhelming agreement was "when are we next in Kirkcaldy? Definitely coming back here". Can't wait to sample Sundays live singers. Great stuff folks. Keep up the good work. Xx

Had an away day recently for Raith vs Montrose, stopped in here for a few jars with the boys. Popular with the locals a small room with corner bar leads to a second longer and narrower room and a larger bar area, decent drinks and a quiet atmosphere

This is a beautiful hotel on one of the most expensive streets in Scotland for real estate. Still, it was very reasonably priced when you consider that. The hotel itself is very comfortable and the bar is nice and dark and secluded so it feels cosy and private. Patrick is an excellent barman and really knows his stuff. The front desk staff were also superb, very friendly and helpful (and loved my dog). Most of the hotel is dog friendly and this was a big plus as we were able to celebrate a birthday without having to get a dog sitter. I have been here a couple of times and would not hesitate to go back. Only very tiny criticism would be the windows in the sea view room needed a clean but only on the outside, the room itself was beautiful.

Cocktails are amazing. Staff behind the bar are great. Friendly and happy to help. Manager is ignorant and would rather look his nose down you for asking for a better playlist as the music is very instrumental which can kill a vibe within seconds.
