FullerThomson’s latest bar: OX184

OX184 is the latest bar and restaurant venture from FullerThomson. The company, which already has Holyrood 9A, Red Squirrel and The Southern in Edinburgh, has opened its latest venture in the capital’s Cowgate.

OX184, the company hopes, will be best known for its wood-fired grill, craft beer and whisky. The custom made wood-fired grill, by Rosewell based blacksmiths G Fitzsimmons & Son, will sizzle with the best of Scottish beef including 8oz shorthorn ribeye steaks, while it also offers an eclectic range of beer from around the world – both on tap, and in cans too. FullerThomson has worked with Royal Mile Whiskies to create a whisky (and whiskey) library which means the bar also has a great range of single malts and bourbons on offer.

“There’s an American slant,” says James Stuart-Gammie, operations manager at FullerThomson. “But we’ve put our own spin on it”.

OX184 is open until 3am and is at 184-186 Cowgate, Edinburgh, EH1 1JJ. More on the design next month.
