Huge congratulations to the whole Wasted Degrees team on your opening day! 🍻🎉
Wishing you every success in this exciting new chapter. We know how much hard work, passion and dedication goes into creating something like this, and we can’t wait to visit.
We’re proud to have your fantastic beers at Auld Smiddy Inn and look forward to many more years of working together.
Cheers to a brilliant opening and an even brighter future! 🍺❤️
It's time! The pub opens today: Sunday 2nd August from 15:00. Please read the important info below.
There'll be a short window in the hours prior where family, friends, suppliers and long time supporters of the brewery will be invited in beforehand. This is our way - Conall and Jack - of thanking these folk for the part they've played in renovating the pub, and for their contribution to the brewery's story and its community over the last ten years.
For those that know us particularly well, you'll probably realise that the pub opens just 14 days before the brewery's 10th birthday!
It's likely to be busy, judging by the enthusiasm online and the number of lovely folk popping their head through the door to wish us well these past few weeks. Just remember, it's a pub, not the launch of a new Playstation - there are no bonus points unlocked for getting in first or early 😉
Look after eachother and please treat George Street like your own: we want to be a good neighbour and behave towards our neighbours as we'd wish others to behave towards us.
Please remember that we're surrounded by residential properties and other great local businesses too. If there's no room at the inn (pub), please don't congest the pavement with a queue out the door. There's also a bus stop in front of the pub, and there may be folk less mobile who need space to get along the street, so please consider others by taking a gander elsewhere for a wee while if the pub is full. Thanks in advance 👍
After today, the pub then shifts to what'll be its usual days and hours next week, beginning Thursday 6th August:
Thursdays 16:00 – 21:00
Fridays & Saturdays 12:00 – 22.00
Sundays 12:00 – 21.00
