Decent pub in Innerleithen?

A group of us are off up to Scotland this weekend, for our first taste of Glentress / Innerleithen.

We're staying at some apartments in Innerleithen, can anyone recommend a decent pub, preferably that does food as well?

Not really, Peebles is a little better for the night life and only about 3 miles from inners, a little more choice.

Traquair Arms is Ok
The corner House(owned by Chinese family, so menu leans to Oriental)
Whistle Stop Cafe for lunch

Much more happening in Peebles though

if you don't mind straying slightly out of innerliethen then try the glentress hotel. some of the nicest food i've eaten.

the only downside is that the guinness comes in a can, not on draft

On a side note the ice cream shop at inners is awesome!

Wanted to stay local really, because of logistics (there's 11 of us), but Peebles only looks like a short taxi ride away.

The Corner House Hotel... small bar, good food...and friendly staff...prices weren't to bad... £9.99 for sweet n sour chicken with fried rice...

4 of us stayed there on Monday

We ended up in the Traquair Arms and Tweedside Hotel (now know why it's referred to as the Star Wars bar :shock: ) on the Friday night. Food ok in the Traquair Arms but small portions and quite expensive.

Went to the Corner House on the Saturday night and the beer / food / landlady's daughter were all fantastic!
