“First ever visit, following in my Grandpa's footsteps and I was not disappointed. Karaoke and chatter filled the air, the bar staff were awesome and the lounge was very busy for a Friday night. The regulars made the four of us very welcome, as did the bar staff. I must say the Bally serves the Best, Belhaven Best Pint in town, and I have sampled many.”
