Scotland is known for its many historical buildings, from breathtaking castles to cathedrals and abbeys.The vast majority of these structures have either been partially destroyed or have undergone significant renovations.
There are very few old buildings today that look just as they did inside and out as they originally did.You may be surprised to learn that one such building is in fact a bar that dates back to the Victorian era.
The building where Bennets Bar in Edinburgh stands has been serving up alcohol to thirsty patrons since 1839, and has retained much of its original character.Although the current bar opened later in 1906, very little has changed since then 117 years ago.
As a result, the pub is teeming with antique charm, and is perfect for those looking to get away from the young and trendy bars that populate the capital.Among the highlights of Bennets Bar are the magnificent stained-glass windows at its entrance, which take up much of the front wall of the building, and the old Ordnance Survey maps of Edinburgh and Scotland beneath the glass tabletops.The most fascinating relic of the Victorian era in Bennets, however, is undoubtedly its 'jug bar', which is separated by a wooden and leaded glass panel.
