With restrictions set to ease across the country on Monday, many of us are getting ready to wet our palettes and get tucked into a refreshing, ice-cold draught beer for the first time since the end of 2020.
It does beg the question though, where will be the best beer gardens to grab a moments peace and take in the wonder of a thirst-quenching pint in Fife? We asked readers on the Fife Free Press Facebook page where they’ll be heading next week as pubs with beer gardens open across Scotland.
Like many businesses, pubs have been hit incredibly hard by the pandemic, and they will require our support to get them on their feet again when their doors reopen next week.
So, without further ado, here’s where our readers recommend you go for a pint when the restrictions ease on Monday.
