Beautiful pub and beer! Great atmosphere and the staff friendly! Definitely going back!

Fantastic cask beers and somehow they make microwaved Cullen Skink that's better than most anywhere in town costing three times as much. Great place, highly recommended

Beautiful space, small but very cosy! Nice variety of beers and the bartender was very nice to us explaining the different beers, and we had a great time there, not super crowded even it being a small bar. Not very easy to spot, and that is a big virtue!
100% recommend!

Never had any food, so can't mark it. Otherwise an excellent experience. Beer was exceptionally well kept. My favourite pub in Edinburgh.

As they say, it's the smallest award winning pub in Edinburgh. It's a great little spot for a drink. Maybe a little "touristy"?

Tiny pub full of character hidden away up a side street. Good selection of beers, but even better choice of malt whiskies. Bar staff were friendly and service was quick. Sign outside says they do food but they don't.

Small old fashioned pub with friendly staff
5mins from Waverly station
Excellent for last drink while waiting on a train home or just a nice chill after walking all day
This pub is on stairs which gives it that extra something special

Cracking wee pub, whether you're caught in the rain or cannae make it up all the steps in one go. Nice wee outside bit I don't remember being there before but inside the usual mix of fascinating punters and great service. Spey's Cadet IPA was very appropriate considering we had just been to see Asteroid City across at The Scotsman.

Great old fashioned pub, and good ale.

Might be the smallest pub in Edinburgh, but it makes up for it in atmosphere and the selection of drinks. Good selection of whisky, but I stayed on the 80 shilling. Heartily recommend Wee Jock.
