Where u going before the match on Saturday

Are you looking for somewhere to wet your whistle before the match on Saturday, then come and join the rest of the animals to frequent the Livingston Inn before kick-off. The food is good, the banter is ohhhh k, and it’s only 10 minutes walk from the park.

You don’t get the usual arseholes working there that work at the stadium; the service usually comes with a smile (we all have our bad days) and the lager is only 2p dearer than the crap you get in the stadium bar.

History about the Inn

The Livingston Inn dates back to the 1700s. This was built as a coaching inn on the main Edinburgh to Glasgow route, one of a number providing fresh horses for the coaches and refreshments for the passengers. By 1780 these enabled the "Edinburgh to Glasgow Flyer" to complete the 50 mile journey between the two cities in a little over 24 hours!
