The Rosevale is another typically old-fashioned Partick pub and is a good alternative to the similar Hayburn Vaults a few doors down. Particularly if you are a Rangers supporter, as this is another popular bluenose bar on matchdays, jam packed full of fans before and after the games just like the Hayburn. It even used to be owned not so long ago by Gers manager Walter Smith. It is really quite simliar to the Hayburn in a great deal of ways. Same old-fashioned décor, good, quick bar service, good drink prices and televisions with constant live Sky football; not just Scottish but plenty of English Premiership games too. The punters are largely the same, although I have generally found the Rosevale a bit less threatening. It seems larger than the Hayburn although it is probably just about the same size, its just that the Rosevale does not have the centre bar so there is therefore more space near the door, which happily means you’re less likely to have to risk spilling your pint trying to move further in. Some of the seats and tables round the back of the pub are a bit old and tacky though — it would definitely help to get this area spruced up a bit. Other than that, I’ve no real huge complaints about the Rosevale.
