Booked on a Monday night and was welcomed to the bar by the owner Alex and a bartender, Rhys. Myself and my partner both sat at the bar and had a great chat with both about their love of cocktails. The dinks are phenomenal and I said to myself with at least 5 drinks down that each was the best I have ever had. The music and atmosphere is amazing and the selection of spirits is unlike any you will see at another bar. Overall, the hype is real, the professionalism and decor are second to none and the drinks are spectacular. Thank you Hey Palu for making my night and my partners birthday special!

This was our second time visiting as it is a lovely spot with a great atmosphere. Great cocktails and loved the innovation of the negroni flight. One downside was that we did regret sitting at the bar as our conversations felt constantly interrupted (though apologetically) by bar staff asking us multiple times if weād like to buy food and asking if we wanted more drinks when we hadnāt yet finished. We left feeling the service was invasive and the aim was to drive sales more than for us to enjoy our evening.

Not going back there for sureā¦ Sat down for cocktails and at first staff seemed very attentive, asking about our day. However, after ordering a cocktail called Mango swizzle, I said to one of the guys that I am having trouble drinking it since it had so much crushed ice that was getting stuck in my straw. His answer was āOh a typical swizzle, right?ā and he went back to his businessā¦ So we asked for the service charge to be removed, to which he answered that is not possible with no concern of why. But because we questioned that since it should be voluntary, he went to his manager, I assume, and came back saying heāll charge only for the drinks. Again no interest in why we asked for thatā¦My friend once again said āthis should be voluntary you knowā, he simply ignored her, showed her the PDQ and said āthatās Ā£10 my loveā ā¦. So disrespectful! I have worked and eaten at 5* restaurants and hotels and was never ever told service charge cannot be removedā¦.

Donāt go to Hey Palu. They add a āservice chargeā to the bill and then make it out to be a huge problem to remove it. Give your customers a choice and stop automatically adding service charges. Edit: I see theyāve already replied, stating itās ādiscretionaryā. If it was ādiscretionaryā there wouldnāt be a problem. But if you stick it on the bill and cause an issue when asking for it to be removed, then itās no longer discretionary, is it?

Went in after a show at the Lyceum and it was perfect for wrapping the night up.

Iāve not made it through to āchuckingā out time yet but Iām sure that will come Service was exceptional, the staff just seem to know when you are ready for another drink.

This review is biased - I love this bar. Last year we went for pre dinner cocktails (I had only recently discovered the bar thanks to a friend), we loved it so much we knew we'd be back this year. This bar offers some of the most diverse, interesting and all round delicious cocktails I have ever had. The team at the bar are excellent - they are incredibly warm and friendly, while offering a very luxurious drinks service. This is definitely a place to go for a 'fancy drink' but also has such a relaxed atmosphere. The snacks menu is also absolutely sensational. I can not recommend enough - if you are in Edinburgh it is a must for a cocktail/mocktail.

Cocktails are great - very creative and tasty. The problem lies in the service. We were constantly approached by staff asking if we wanted another drink and conversations were interrupted a few times, even when it was clear everyone at the table was only about 50% through the last round. This happened 4/5 times in our 2 hour booking. At first I thought these interruptions were just innocent mistakes, but shortly after I overheard a waiter approach a couple who had paid 10 minutes before and ask them to leave if they were not going to order another drink. It feels more like a hard sell than a chance to catch up with friends. Considering the price point, youād expect to be given some time to leave and to not be hounded to order more drinks.

What a wonderful place! Was already expecting a lot, given awards won and having looked at the cocktail menu on line, but got way more. A lovely greeting when we first arrived, a brilliantly welcoming interior and exceedingly prompt, friendly and knowledgeable service. And thatās before we even get the the cocktails: bliss! Between 4 of us we tried 8 different types. All gorgeous and so well mixed. You will be offered a food menu too, and you should take it: the most elegant bar snacks ever invented including a focaccia that is possibly one of the best things to eat ever. Could not recommend this more highly, it is an amazing place.

Everything about Hey Palu was excellent. The space is beautiful, the drinks are expertly prepared, and the food is delicious. We had a brilliant time and came away glad that such a wonderful place exists. The Delicious Sour (actual name) was a standout, and some of the best use of calvados and aquafaba Iāve experienced.

Hey Palu is a must visit for seriously good cocktails, great service and an all round good vibe. They clearly really care about making outstanding drinks and each time I've visited I've been really impressed. Their house martini is especially delightful, served right out the freezer with truffle olives and olive oil on the side. I also love that they do a whisky of the month - something very interesting that you might not find anywhere. When I visited last it was Benriach 16. I look forward to my next visit when I'm in Edinburgh again!
