Absolutely delightful and cool venue just off the main street in Edinburgh. The food was delicious, and the range of craft beers available to drink in or take with you are excellent and reasonably priced. Staff were very helpful, friendly, and ready to provide recommendations as needed.

Initially rated 5 years ago but made my second visit last night. Great selection of local and further afield beers on tap, staff are enthusiastic and knowledgeable. Definitely book if you’re planning on going as I saw people get turned away. Food was on the higher end of what you’d expect pricewise, but the quality matched it

Not tried the food yet but the staff are ridiculously rude to the point we didn’t feel welcomed. Chatting at the bar when the place was empty and when we asked to be served she didn’t like that and was rude and passive aggressively slamming things on our table 😅😂 we’re chuckling about it because it’s beyond rude, not sure what her name is but girl with red curly hair, never experienced anything like it - don’t bother! Getting paid to sit on a barrel looking moody giving dirty looks at customers, not sure how you get a job on customer service like that 😬 Edit: food was amazing! Just don’t go if a certain worker is on 😂

To caveat my experience, I’ve only ever come to buy takeaway beers from the fridge and not stayed for food yet. First visit was great, this most recent one the fridges looked to be lacking a little based on expectations. Swings and roundabouts, I’m sure I’ll stop in again soon.

Always loved this place, super chilled, and a great selection of beers. With a great wee bottle shop next door for taking away, or to be consumed in the bar too. Just outwith the main madness of Edinburgh, with that it's often easier to get a table, which is always a welcome sight. The staff are always super friendly and knowledgeable of their great beer selection. A selection of wines and spirits and soft drinks too, so they basically cater for everyone, really. A must visit if you love good beers. I've never eaten here, so I can't rate the food, but I suspect it's very good also.

If you want a burger or beer, just go. Burgers don't look amazing, they just *are* amazing. The beer selection - on tap - is small but meticulously curated. If you need more selection, their bottle shop appears to be huge.

Goats on tap! 😀 Took the kid for a burger for lunch today after a wet walk, "this burger is a 9.5 out of 10" Update (because Google insisted): It's still an awesome bar and bottle shop. Update 2: Still an awesome little bar. Needs a crossover with Holy Goat to be on tap though, a Salty Goat, if you will 🐐 Update 3 just because: the beer is awesome the staff are brilliant and friendly. Great place to meet up with friends or pop in for a quiet beer after a dog walk. Update 4, Google keeps asking. Still an awesome bar. Update 5. Google needs to get a grip. The burgers are awesome. Maybe the best in edinburgh. So an actual update..... Goat crossovers on tap!!!! Seriously, don't visit here, I want to keep being able to get a table. Bowhouee burger benefits from a second patty. But is still the best burger in town with or without. Actual update 2. No goats on tap but Taylor found some hidden away. And more for takeaway later. It's still the best burger in Edinburgh. The cauli-bombs with hit sauce are pretty damn good too!

Being a long time lover of Asian food, being in Edinburgh meant I had a myriad of options but with choice blindness being a cruel mistress and the salt horse being a stones throw from my hotel I decided for a burger whilst I researched the rest of my weeks meal options. I was extremely pleased with my decision, the place itself was quant and rustic and the staff truly seemed to enjoy being there. The food was superb, had to have been thrice cooked chips to be this crispy and the pulled pork and apple slaw on a burger is not a combo I would have leaned toward but well done salt horse team. If you are around and want a real burger in a real (albeit rather small) pub then look no further. If and when I am next in Edinburgh I will be popping in again, that's for sure!

We gave this one a go as it was right across the road from where we were staying. We all had very yummy burgers and fries and a range of drinks. The staff were really friendly and helpful. It's worth noting that they don't take cash - some of us wanted to pay by cash and couldn't (in our case this wasn't an issue but for others it could have been an issue especially as it wasn't clear until we asked at the end of our meal).

My go to bar in Edinburgh. A revolving, always fantastic selection of beer. In a cosy, warm, candle lit bar. There's a bottle shop next door too with every beer you could imagine and some you probably can't. Some top notch breweries are consistently on offer as well as locals like newbarns in Leith. The staff are always in good form and are there to help recommend a beer you might enjoy. The kitchen is worth giving a try too if you're in the mood for wings or a burger. It's classic pub food with a bit of care and a little extra flavour.

I'm upping to low 5 star....and this place will only get better. This is a rising star in the making. Fab service and exceptional quality. Be brave Salt Horse. Go a bit different and keep (mostly) flying the Scottish flag***4 stars trending to 5. It's really tough to inject soul into a micro pub. The Salt Horse excels in service. The beer is spot on. For me it still needs that je ne sais quoi. Am being really fussy I know. I really do recommend this bar. The standard globally is so very high.
