The Louden Bar in Duke Street has always been known as a man's pub. But now that it has been refurbished it is the ideal spot for a couple to enjoy a pleasant evening out.
About £25,000 has been spent on the small but cosy pub upgrading the decor. Regular customers will realise that the pub is bigger than it was. That's because Scottish Brewers took over an adjacent close and by knocking down some walls have incorporated it in the bar.
The new decor is in the 30's style with lots of cigarette ad mirrors round the walls, and the floor has been semi-carpeted. As manager John Dillon, who has been at the Louden for about three years, said: "The pub has been closed for about two months but I think the time and money spent has been well worth it."
