| EBG Rating: | 7.7/10 |
| Choice/ Quality of Drinks | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Their own label beers compliment an otherwise mainstream European selection. A decent back bar with Vana Tallinn liqueurs, it is fully equipped. |
| Style/ Décor | ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Eye-popping recreation of a Gin Palace but in Estonia, surely some intellectual property has been purloined in its creation – a more than strong resemblance to some of England’s pubs. A large galleried hall dominated by central bar with rising plinth guiding the eye towards a stained glass inset ceiling feature. Wood fittings and comfortable seating based in niches around the room. |
| Atmosphere/ Character | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Warm, welcoming and pubby overall. |
| Amenities/ Events | ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Meals, snacks, TV, own label beers |
| Value For Money | ❤️❤️❤️ Fair for food, slightly more expensive for drinks, although there are multi-buy deals on offer, suitable for groups. |
| Description | Dating from 1997, this extraordinary venue hasn’t so much as taken the leaf out of the book of English gin palaces as stolen away with the whole damn tome. Maintained immaculately, there are so few signs of wear and tear it feels like it could have opened last week. A central bar which strongly resembles The Old Joint Stock in Birmingham or The Old Bank of England in London with a stack rising and drawing your eyes towards a marvellous stained glass ceiling. The pub is galleried in that familiar fashion with levels and niches to choose from. The rest of the concept is familiar – decent grub and decent beer, with the addition of their own beers which add a further point of interest. While it is outside the old centre, it is easily reached on the main road between the airport and centre and should be strongly considered. It is also warm and well-heated during winter.
