Restaurants

Aikman's and Cellar Bar - (32 Bell Street) is the place to be for a cheeky pint with friends. Both the local population and those travelling from further afield know Aikman's for the quality of its food as well as for the widest and probably most interesting Drinks list. This year, they celebrated their 20th year in the CAMRA "Good Beer Guide". Complementing this with live music at least 3 times a week, Aikman's is the musician's favourite!

Gorgeous - (7 Bell Street) is a small but cosy café right in the centre of town. It features a bounty of baked goods as well as superior coffee, and the scones are the worst-kept secret among the student population! The soups and paninis are great for an on-the-go lunch, but don't be fooled by the small shop opening - there's a spacious upstairs, perfect for forgetting the bustle of the town for an hour or two.

Ma Bells - the Prince of Pubs (40 The Scores) forms a great night life for residents of the hotel and a great haunt for the students and locals alike. Weekends are lively with guest DJs and Bands. With its huge selection of lagers and imported bottled beers it will give you plenty to choose from. If these aren't to your taste why not try something from their extensive range of spirits and cocktails. There is also a fabulous food menu available in Ma Bells, from lunch in a Jiffy to a Homemade Ma Burger.
