Irish pub at Schiphol
I am pretty sure I am not the only Schiphol regular who misses a pint and an all day breakfast that used to be available at the Irish pub at the airport. As we all know, it’s been closed since the Covid virus semi paralysed us all.
However, when I stopped for a pint at the Heineken pub at the airport on Saturday, I happened to notice that the bar man used to be one of the gents who kept me in beers at the aforementioned Irish pub. He told me that the plan is to reopen the Irish bar early October so this is progress.
I really miss my (un) healthy all day breakfasts at this fine establishment.

Still same set-up inside - hope they had a deep clean after all this time?!

About as overpriced as expected...
I've ordered the BLT burger, let's see if it beats the absolute garbage they serve at BFS in value for money.
Edit: It was substantially better (and bigger) than feared. Belfast remains the king of overpriced airport pubs. I could see myself coming back here, at least on the trips where my employer pays the bill!

Bulleit is correct. And so is Dewar's and The Famous Grouse. Other than Aberfeldy and Craigellachie supposed to be under heading "Whisky - Single Malt" rather than "Whiskey - Single Malt", I'm not sure what you are complaining about. (well Dewar's and The Grouse too, I guess)
