Irish aye for student haunt
Mitchells & Butlers is rebranding the Hunters Square pub as an O'Neill's and will now carry out a raft of alterations, including an emerald green colour scheme, a new entranceway, an oak staircase, a larger kitchen and reconfigured seating to make it more "diner friendly".
While the Irish brand is new to Edinburgh, it has been a fixture in Glasgow for years, with pubs in Queen Street, Sauchiehall Street and Merchant Square.
