GRAMPIAN - Craigellachie, Fiddichside Inn National Inventory of Historic Pub Interiors Part One Craigellachie, Craigellachie, AB38 9RR (On A95 (towards Keith)) Tel: 01340 881239 Opening Hours: lunchtimes, evenings; all day Saturday Pub Food: No food Listed Status: Grade C(s) A marvellous rural survival; a tiny bar at the end of a cottage in a beautiful spot by a bridge over the River Fiddich. The pub has been in the owner's family for 88 years. The public bar measures about 3 x 4.5m (10 x 15ft), with a panelled original counter running down the length of the room and leaving only half of the space for customers. There is not enough room for any tables, only bar stools and a couple of benches. The back gantry is a simple three-bay affair and there is half-height wooden panelling on the walls. Opposite the counter is a coal fire and there are antique William Younger's and Robert Younger's IPA mirrors. That's it - no carpets, no food, no fruit machines, no piped music, no TV, no children - absolute heaven for lovers of unspoilt pubs. Open lunchtimes and evenings Monday to Friday, and all day Saturday, Sunday. |
