Muckle Cross (Elgin)

A typical small Wetherspoon's converted from what was once a bicycle repair shop, then a Halfords branch. The pleasant long room has ample seating, a family area and a long bar. Deservedly popular, so it can get very busy, particularly at weekends.

Eight handpumps offer a wide range of beers from national and Scottish micro-breweries, often including one beer from Windswept and ciders available during annual cider-fest. The pub also stocks a wide range of malt whiskies from more than 20 local distilleries. Usual two beer festivals annually, one Scottish and the other World.
