Great pub with exceptional staff. Drinks were bang on and was visiting the city for a birthday and was very well looked after. 100% worth a stop to hydrate and grab a bite to eat before continuing to explore Edinburgh.

Stopped in for early lunch - food was good for the most part (mash and chips slightly bland). Friendly and quick service

Had an amazing night watching the Rugby World Cup at The Caslte Arms, whilst getting introduced to the whiskey world by the whiskey connoisseur who even managed to get my partner to try whiskey! Extremely friendly staff and warm atmosphere, highly recommend going for a drink.

Decent pub for where it’s located! Full of tourists, especially in August (totally my bad for visiting at this time!) so got quite busy / hectic. However service was decent, beers were good (they had a decent selection), and food was alright considering!

Good place to come for a pint and some pub food. It was very busy but the service was still quick. They have a good selection of beers on tap and very tasty food.

Bar staff this evening were fantastic, Hubert & Matthew are first class. Visited with my partner and felt welcome for the start. Unsure of what drinks to choose both guys mentioned above have excellent knowledge and were very accommodating. Their drink choice was not something I would have ordered normally! However it was very nice. Highly recommend this bar Reasonable prices, very knowledgeable and friendly Thank you

The place is just under the castle, the food is typical and very well done, the haggis is a must to try but also the lamb shank was very tender and juicy, the price is really good consider the position and the portion of the food. The view outside is amazing. If you go to Edimburgh tou have to eat here.

Super amazed at Hubert’s knowledge of whiskey! I’m not normally a whiskey drinker but he put together an awesome combination of local drops that I really enjoyed!
