spirt of 98 Posted November 22, 2021 Share Posted November 22, 2021 (edited) The Canny Mann’s is all hype. I get in there nae bother. I grew up hearing the stories and never went in.One night whilst in Morningside for a session we just went in for a laugh expecting to be told to leave. Much to our disappointment it was like any other bar and we had a few drinks in it and left. Decors a bit out there and it’s full of Watsons and Herriot’s Fp’s. It’s the kind of place a grown up Harry Potter might drink. Edited November 22, 2021 by spirt of 98 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame the characters that bestow it and arrogant and disrespectful, most of them anyway not all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1953 Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Big crowd of us used to frequent the place mid to late 70's, (that and the World's End). We used to take over one of the wee rooms on the left if you went in the side door. One of my mates got off with one of the barmaids at the time and found out that the condom machine in the gents was deliberately kept empty because nobody would ever go to the bar and complain about it. ha ha! Footnote about the World's End, you could watch for the no 1 bus coming at 2.35, run to the bus stop and be in Tynecastle just in time for kick off, happy days!

Had a pal that stayed down Canongate and used to meet him in The Worlds End for a jar. Was a good pub then (early 90’s) but was disappointed in it when I visited a few years back. Seems to be aimed at tourists and mostly revolved around food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
