Malt & Hops in Edinburgh, City of

Had a couple of beers in here. Lovely place - very traditional with a real fireplace. Great choice of beers.

Great little pub with a wide choice of real ales.

Still a great bar with great ales and whisky options. The jazz trio was a bonus!

Very cool here and friendly staff! Top

This pub is absolutely amazing....so cosy atmosphere and very picturesque inside with good music....is hidden gem for those who know... worth a visit

In short: Really greasy, rustic pub - large selection of beers and other alcoholic beverages, totally friendly, helpful service. A great mix of guests, young and old, jeans and jackets, great atmosphere. Very fun and not a tourist trap.

Very nice pub, also welcoming animals! The boss is friendly and even speaks a few words of French. I highly recommend 😉

Lovely Pub … a lot of different beers… nice people

Beautiful busy wee bar by the water serving lovely Guinness. Popped in for a couple of drinks before going out for food and sat outside looking over the water. Nice spot.

Wonderful selection of beers, espec IPA's. Engaging bar staff. Would love to have this as my "local"!

This is a good pub. Do yourself a favour and stop in for a pint.

It's a great wee pub plus the staff are great especially Archie and Jan they know there drinks 🍷🍷🥂

Great place reched the parts needed will go back

Nice pub with nice people. Can be recommended!

Our favourite pub in Leith. Always made welcome and great selection of beer.

Rubbish service, slow drinks, avoid

Large selection of beers including craft and local options. Friendly service

Great ambience and decoration. Nice music, while not loud. Ample selection of tap beers.

Really nice bar with a great atmosphere! The bartender was knowledgeable about his craft and was very nice and welcoming. Good place to get some drinks in Edinburgh!

Very nice Pub on the Water of Leith! Atmospheric interior with nice decoration! It has a few tables outside with a view of the river, while you can also sit on the bank with your drink! Friendly staff. Good prices - not touristic! Perfect for enjoying a sunny day in Leith!

Nice spot right in Leith. Nice vibe and friendly staff.

Live music, good beer, what's not to like?

Pleasant terrace, on the banks of the Leith, which can be very windy. There are plenty of choices of beers at reasonable prices. The atmosphere is very friendly, frequented by locals. I had a great time there although when I left I was a little drunk.

Fun cozy atmosphere with outdoor seating as well! Nice local beer on tap, there’s two to choose from, I liked the Pils. Friendly service and nice views of the canals from the outdoor seating area.

Visited here with friends during the Jazz and Blues Festival. Great night soaking up the atmosphere and catching the tunes. Pub was busy, busy and staff were so friendly and helpful despite the pressures. Clearly a popular venue in the neighbourhood with great views o er the Water of Leith especially on a warm, sunny evening.

My god does this place need a deep clean. The carpet is disgusting the tables are incredibly sticky and a coat of paint wouldn't go a miss.

Great selection of casks, quality tunes and friendly staff. What is there not to like!?

The perfect cosy pub! I could spend all day there!

quite a scene in spring / summer time. staff members had no time for non locals.

Can't be a better place in Sunny Leith for a decent pint of cask ale. Have to say though that prices are on the up compared to similar pubs in the immediate area.

Cosy pub with great selection of lovely stouts and real ales. Bar staff was friendly and efficient. Enjoyable evening and will certainly be back.

It was my first experience drinking Guinness! (I’m from Mexico) It was an amazing experience 🤩👌 A real pub experience, amazing atmosphere, fresh beer!

Great pub, no food but excellent beer

Gorgeous pub, great friendly staff.

Poor welcome. Told we couldn't sit at the bar as it was reserved.... What pub pub reserves the bar area? Then to be told another free area of the bar was order only so wasn't allowed to sit there either. That aside, the lassie behind the bar was rude! Our pints tasted like the smell of wet dog. If the lassie wasn't so rude we would have said so we just left.

Traditional friendly proper pub, excellent choice of beer, larger and ales the choice charges frequently. The whisky selection is also tremendous. The service was professional and friendly I would highly recommend anyone to visit here.

Great traditional pub. Excellent ales. Wish I had more time to spend there.

Great atmosphere and good selection of beers on tap.

Great cosy pub with very good service

Nice staff nice feel to the place

Both times I've been in here I have felt like I've been judged for being a woman. But as soon as I order a pint of beer it goes away, it's as if being a woman in here is less than but ordering beer makes up for it? The pints are quite expensive for what it is but the pub itself is cosy. The staff are very focused on catering for men, and don't really care about their female customers. Not sure if I'll come back. Don't know if they serve food.

Very bad experience. The waiter who told us he was the manager was very rude to us. I don't know if he was having a bad day, his ego or what he was thinking but you can't treat people like that. I tried to talk to him because I didn't understand how a person could behave like that at work and he told me that if I didn't understand him it was my problem (saying that my English was bad). He seemed like a customer who was upset because another customer was ignoring him… a very unpleasant and uncomfortable situation. We will not return and I do not recommend it.

Lovely little pub, great service with a smile, nice and friendly and a great pint

First visit, great local, packed full bit did not feel chaotic, nice atmosphere. Good range of beer, and I'm sure other tipples too. Live music is sometimes played.

Brilliant proper pub in a good location. Open fire. Decorated with hops and old whisky/water jugs.

Proper pub in the heart of Leith docks ! Sensibly priced drinks unlike other establishments near by ! Friendly staff and great atmosphere in the pub ! Most definitely be back

The Malt and Hops is a traditional cozy, friendly pub on the shore at Leith. Inside is unusual with bunches of hops and old mugs/whisky jugs hanging from the ceiling. The walls are adorned with old mirrored beer adverts and other interesting pub/drink memorabilia. There's also a real fire which was great to stand near to on a cold day in December.  If you visit in the summer there are tables outside with views of the Water of Leith. Great selection of beers and whiskies. Service was excellent and friendly with the lone barman coping well when about 20 of us arrived. 👍😀 Definitely recommended.

Incredible little pub. Fantastic range of beers and spirits. Will be heading back soon.

They charged me 7.20 for my Moonwake IPA which feels like it’s more than it should be. Maybe it’s because I’m not a local? I guess I’ll never find out.

Cosy pub with a good selection of local beers. Not cheap though.

Very nice pub with a warm atmosphere, a very nice staff and excellent choice of ales

Lovely pub nice vibe super cozy 🫶

Absolutely brilliant evening here having strolled to the sheep heid, through the park to the willow then we walked down past and into old haunts before landing here. What a great place full of locals who gave us a second glance and a seat. Thanks for being so welcoming and hope to join the party again soon. Brilliant value too

Good little pub, nice and friendly

We called in for a drink as recommended by a local bistro owner. The atmosphere is pumping what a great place to call in for a drink whilst walking round Leith!

Good atmosphere, friendly staff and wide choice of beer

I've never had a rubbish time here, always a good vibe, nice beers and the best playlist! Also, sometimes you get to sit next to a dog!

Pub molto accogliente, arredamento particolare, ottime birre.

Popped in for a pint and a dram, the beer selection was good if a little pricey. Plenty of whiskies but all were quite standard and low end, with no independent bottlers or anything special to peak the interest of a whisky fan.

Great local, super vibey and historic dockside pub. Guys behind the bar good craic. No notes.

Good Beer, crisps and chat. What else do you need?

Klassischer Pub in Edinburgh...Ale...perfect gezapft...

Ongedwongen sfeer, goede biertjes en prima whisky, kundig door de barvrouw uitgelegd

Great wee pub in the heart of Leith. Friendly staff and a good selection of beers

Very cosy bar, great beer selection

Great place lovely staff dog enjoyed it too got biscuits

Great pub excellent choice of drinks and friendly staff, will definitely return.

Great pub, proper pub pub with great vibe, went on a Friday night and it was really good would recommend to anyone looking for a proper pub

Grymt ställe. Fick en känsla av Danmark.

Old bar with seemingly endless beverage choices! Beer on tap and bottle/can me for me. Very friendly, kind bartender, bar and table seating.

Busy pub, excellent atmosphere, only had a couple drinks in here so can't say much more, would go back

Found this place a few months ago and happy now to call it my local. The staff and customers are very pleasant and the atmosphere is great, a nice place to chill and relax. Good selection of beer and IPAs too. I love coming here a few times a week, well.... why not right? 😁

Doesn't do food but we asked if we could eat our sandwiches and this was ok. Nice to find a quiet pub on a midweek lunchtime.

Great old style traditional pub. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. Good selection of beers. Very, very busy!

Great selection of beers and whisky, lovely and cozy atmosphere with very friendly bar staff

Didn't have any food, but fancied a quiet drink after a Fringe show.

Top Kneipe. Superfreundliche Bedienung. Grosse Auswahl an Bier. Top.

Didn't eat here but had a few drinks and free jazz band playing so atmosphere good.

Didn't eat, but great atmosphere and great selection of real ales and whisky

Salaş eski bir İskoç bari arıyorsanız ve beklentileriniz çok yüksek değilse kesinlikle tavsiye ederim 🌝

Proper boozer where everyone is welcome

Great Edinburgh pub, would recommend!!!

Extremely rude blonde staff. Brought my sister up from England. Others are laughing and giggling (loud) but aimed at our table of a group of girls and one guy for laughing with the bar guy (Australian). Told to quiet down. Gtf this is leith. And a good vibes only. Sort your staff out it’s embarrassing. Don’t do here if you don’t want fun and laughter. Honestly never seen such bad vibes in leith in my life.

Great pub! Friendly local atmosphere. Great staff 😁

Old school sailors pub in a modernized and livable Leith port district

Very traditional pub, friendly and accommodating owner . Great location right by the docks.

Great local pub. Not many of these left around in cities anymore. Good beer choices

Great choice of ales. Friendly mixture of locals and tourists. Always a fan.

Classic old school pub with friendly vibes and great beer. We were able to get takeaway pints and sit by the riverfront. It was lovely.

Bestest It's one of the place I keep going again and again for it's cask ales and best whisky collection , believe it not they got decor of hops and beer badges which completely defines the place. It can never be a disappointment to be at this bar. Once again went to the bat and tried the amazing whisky collection , it's lovely.

Walked by and just had to go in, which I don't regret. Great selection and the staff is so friendly and welcoming. My husband and I found it the second to last night of our honeymoon and decided to end our trip with a pint here on our last night. Great atmosphere where everyone seemed happy and relaxed, just as we were. I will definitely be back here on my next trip to Edinburgh!

Excellent friendly staff, very helpful, good range of beers and dog friendly.

İçerideki kalabalığı görüp girdik. Doğru bir karar vermişiz. Ortam çok güzel, müziğin tarzı ve sesi olması gerektiği gibi. Şans verdiğiniz zaman pişman olmazsınız 🍻

Nice evening with a good trad Jazz trio on a Sunday night. Friendly, busy and perfect for a dip into the local vibe. Been here before, want to be here again!

Sunny day so pretty busy but always a great selection of beers and a magical setting

Lovely pub with great view & vibes! Staff incredibly friendly every time :)

Nice place, some good whisky, ambience and live music as a bonus

Lovely traditional pub, good selection of ales.

Cozy pub with a nice range of beverages!

Great wee pub with a bit of character. Would recommend popping in for one or two.
