As well as the Cross & Corner another new pub has opened in Canongate. The former, The Stags Head pub on the corner of Broughton Road and Rodney Street, has been transformed into The Other Place Bar and Kitchen. It has undergone a complete refurbishment, with everything stripped back to the brick. The light and airy bar has a plain but striking gantry which reveals a wide range of spirits and beers – more than 100. There’s also a range of 10 draught beers. Food is of the American/Scottish variety with an emphasis on tasty hotdogs and American style dishes such as shrimp sandwich. The bar is owned by Michael O’Sullivan, who also owns The Doric.
