Description: If you don't stop in at Dunvegan's and have a pint, or try another new single malt scotch, you missed a real treat. This is by far St. Andrews' best watering hole. Every major golfer is friends with the owners. The pub is lined with the photos of the owners and golf's greats. This time I tried Lagavulin, a single malt scotch from the island of Islay. With its peaty aroma it has a very distinctive taste. Laphroaig is another single malt scotch from the same island, all with the peaty aroma. It doesn't get any better sipping on one of these tasty treats and smoking a stogie outside on the patio watching folks go by (absolutely no smoking inside though).
While Dunvegan's may be better known as the best pub in St. Andrews, it has great food as well. While I have noted that reservations are recommended, a reservation is required if you don't want to be left out. The steaks were awesome, and so were the side dishes, and desserts. Dunvegan's also plays host as a bed-and-breakfast.
Dunvegan's is conveniently located at the corner of North Street and Golf Place Road, only a block from the St. Andrews Old Course.
