But my local is the Longniddry Inn. A good few Jambos go in there: the lounge is the more relaxed part of the pub and it's a decent pint. Lovecraft: we were there a couple of times over the Christmas period for meals: looks a nifty wee pub.......brutal when you're trying to get out into traffic though!!

Gavsy Van Gaverson Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Crofters all the ****ing way! Crofters has went downhill since me and my mates stopped drinking there, and since the Crofters Hearts bus finished (none of us drink there anymore). Fact Still have a soft spot for the place though, and the mental bus may be returning this season for a one-off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecjambo Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 http://www.myvillage.com/livingston/bars&Music-review-the_torphichen_arms.htm That is my local. Torphichen Arms, Mid Calder, near Livingston. Im thinking that review is quite an old one as they dont do food anymore. Good selection of crisps though. Ill admit its not the best pub in the world but its far from the worst. It does the basics well. Not bad prices, pool table, quiz night, some saturdays are packed and do themed nights now and again. The secret is a brilliant atmosphere for Scotland games. Probably one of the best in West Lothian. The place is always packed for the games, the pub is full of Scotland flags, music etc, the beer is constantly flowing and everyone has a great time.

Craigieboy Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Always thought that the Pavillion was a big hibs pub. Remember driving past there when hibs got thumped in the cup final by Celtic, 3-0.
