The Howff Restaurant was part of the Breadalbane Arms in Constitution Road. The Howff at #33 and the Bread/Bothy at #35. I'm sure there was a door inside that connected the 2, to enable you to have a wee drink at the bar before nipping through for some nosh. The restaurant was quite a popular place to have a work's do.
Although the Bread is still there today, the Howff has since disappeared.
The illustration dates from the 70's.
Hi, If I remember correctly there was a connecting passage to the downstairs bar then you went upstairs to the "real" bar. Used to go the Bread most weekends when I stayed in Douglas. Had to go most nights when I stayed in Rustic Place. Had to go early to avoid waiting in the queue before heading off to the best pub in Dundee, the Scout. Jim
