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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
