The Fiddlers Arms is a wonderful pub and I will definitely come back the next time I visit Edinburgh! The service was quick and wonderful. I just wish we could have been there during a rugby match to experience the excitement of that!!
I loved the haggis, neeps and tatties they do here! Had my first taste of haggis at this pub and immediately fell in love with it!
I have been to Edinburgh twice and every time I always have my first dinner at this pub for the haggis.
Il Fiddler's Arms è il tipico pub scozzese, adatto sia per bere qualche birra in compagnia ma anche per cenare: in quest'ultimo caso è consigliabile presentarsi non oltre le 20.30 poiché la cucina ha un'orario di chiusura non proprio italiano. Il pub non offre servizio al tavolo quindi dovrete andare direttamente al bancone a recuperare la vostra birra, ma questo vi permetterà di scegliere meglio cosa bere. Se siete fortunati infine avrete anche l’occasione di essere intrattenuti da uno o più musicisti che sono soliti passare dalla zona è canticchiare qualcosa per i clienti.
While on a solo trip to Edinburgh I was looking for a place to eat my dinner in old town. During a walking tour a fellow walker suggested this place and advised to try highland chicken. I followed. The place is conveniently located in grass market area. Typical Scottish look, dark yet not shabby. Service was quick and not expensive. Highland chicken was delicious. Baked chicken filled with minced meat served with mashed potato. I will definitely visit this place if I am back to Edinburgh.
Great pub with good pub food! The hamburger and chips was so good! My husband tried haggis for the first time and said it was good. Friendly service too!
We ordered the haggis, neeps and tatties as well as the bangers and mash. The food was fine but the service was quite poor. After we placed our orders and the food was dropped at our table we didn’t see our server again for half an hour while our drinks sat empty, which was a bit disappointing. Overall it was pretty good but the service made the experience less than ideal.
Great Scottish pub with great local beer and food. Was here around dinner time, and it was very busy, but I was able to get seated within about 10 minutes. Very good onion rings, garlic bread,fish and chips, and burgers! Definitely recommend if you're in the area!
Nice server, got seared right away. Beer is cold. I had the goat cheese salad, and it was magical! Warm goat cheese rounds on toasts topping a field green salad with balsamic vinegar dressing and pockled onions with cherry tomatoes-- it felt indulgent and healthy at the same time!
Great atmosphere and food! Apart from trying some great Scottish foods we also had to try out the Battered Mars Bar - intense, but definitely a must in Scotland! Also the street the bar is located on is very cozy with lots of other nice places
Delicious pub style food here at the Fiddler’s Arms! Had the bangers and mash and it was perfection! The sausages were savoury, the yorkshire was perfection and the gravy was delicious! Also had the cider on tap, great accompaniment to the meal!
Food and service were fantastic. We arrived quite late in Edinburgh and after walking around, decided to try this place. What a lovely surprise, friendly service, delicious food and a great atmosphere. The sticky toffee pudding was incredible. We liked so much that we went back for more.
Very tasty food, good beers and pub atmosphere. Local dishes in big portion, highland chicken and bangers&mash are tasted.. 5* Available without reservation!
We loved this pub; great drinks; great food. Fish and chips and excellent tartar sauce. Innis and Gunn beer and Crabbies Ginger beer. Both were excellent; both were made in Edinburgh. Crabbies was delicious, but it did take a little getting used to the ginger taste.
Delicious Scottish food! I had cullen skink and sticky toffee pudding and it was perfect for a chilly evening. It was crowded when we first came in, but the staff were very friendly and caring and assured us they'd have a table for us soon. Situated on a busy corner of Grassmarket overlooked by Edinburgh Castle. Great experience!
