Review of St Andrew's Bar

There's nothing particularly wrong with this place...

There's nothing particularly wrong with this place, but there's nothing particularly special or unique; I think it wants to be a Scottish pub at its foundation but has a near-gaudy commercial sports bar built on top -- if you squint you just might think you were in a Red Robin bar ... whoopie /sigh/. For all the Scottish characteristics that hood-ornament the decor, the ownership seems to have a unwelcoming disdain for all things of Scottish heritage that won't hang quietly on the wall -- which is surprising, or to say confusing. The last time I was there I ordered a burger, okay but not phenomenal enough to take an hour to bring to the table ... perhaps it was made & delivered from the North Gate Red Robin? I've found that when I go here its to be my with friends & enjoy their company -- I look forward to the time with my friends, but I don't especially look forward to anything having to do with the venue.
