Sandy Bell's

food drink

The low, grey stone frontage of Sandy Bell's sits on Forrest Road, distinguished by its dark green paint and the modest wooden sign hanging above the door. Originally a modest public house in the nineteenth century, it became a focal point for the Scottish folk music revival during the nineteen sixties. Musicians gathered here to play informal sessions, cementing its reputation as a home for traditional music. The walls inside remain covered in signed photographs of the players who built that history.
