Where the vibe is as chilled as the drinks we serve.

People sitting outside Old Eastway Tap, engaging in conversations and enjoying drinks on a sunny day, with hanging flower baskets and a large barrel planter outside.

Sink into the relaxed, cozy surroundings of our Easter Road bar, where every nook and cranny invites you to relax, laugh with friends, and soak up the atmosphere.

But why limit yourself indoors when the outside world beckons? Take a seat in our generous outdoor seating area, bask in the glorious sunshine (yes, we know!), and treat yourself to some top-notch people watching.

We do get very busy at certain times so if you want to guarantee yourself a table indoors then we recommend booking first.

We’re a big fan of dugs here at Old Eastway Tap. We believe that your four-legged companions should be by your side while you enjoy a pint… or two!
