The last review was obviously written by the manager of a rival pub, who has clearly never worked in the Last Drop. It could not have been further from the truth. I worked in the Last Drop for several years with James (never known as Jimmy), and every member of staff both past and present can verify what a fantastic boss he is. James and Ruth create a brilliant atmosphere for staff and patrons of the pub alike. They have great respect for their staff and for that reason still receive Christmas cards and updates from all over the world from the hundreds of people they have employed over the last 20 years.
The Last Drop has always been well known for it's restaurant quality food, and pioneered the way for great pub food. So naturally, it has always been a target for rival pub owners in the Grassmarket who just can't figure out why it's always so busy.
I still pop in occasionally to say hello and the pub is still as fantastic as it always was!!!!!! Check it out for yourself.
