text: I'm going to let the cat out of the bag, The Black Cat is a good pub on Rose Street...\nRose Street (much like the Grassmarket) serves as a pub crawl magnet, where all the pubs are essentially generic, well The Black Cat isn't one of those places, for one it isn't suited to the stag/hen pub crawls simply due to the fact it's fairly small.\n\nAs this is a pub, lets get to the important part, Black Cat keeps a good lager (St Mungo), real ale (two rotating casks), Aspalls cider and a great selection of whisky alongside a choice of vodka, rum or gin. So a good selection of beverages (I don't drink wine so it will never appear in my reviews but it is available) for the more discerning palette...\n\nSo to sum up this is one black cat that isn't ill luck should your paths cross.
