The Caley Bar in Edinburgh, City of

Great late night cocktails complimented with D’lish “nibbles”’. Mmmhhh.

The Celey Bar is quite delightful and offers an extensive variety of beverages. The cocktail menu drew inspiration from diverse cities across the globe, which was particularly intriguing to me as an avid traveller. We received exceptional service from Megan, Emily, and Lukasz. They were all very courteous and took great pleasure in answering our inquiries and assisting us in selecting our drinks. Definitely recommend for a drink or two

Excellent staff and experience at the Caley bar. Meghan and Beth were superb bartenders, sharing with us their extensive knowledge of the cocktails, local gins, and fine whiskeys and scotches on hand. They not only crafted some of the most sumptuous drinks, but also shared with us the ‘dos and don’ts’ in Edinburgh. We enjoyed our time at the Caley bar, coming back thrice during my stay at the Caledonian. The service was above and beyond — we even came back as patrons while we were staying at the Balmoral, a dusty old hotel up the road. We love the Caley bar, can’t wait to be back! Be sure to ask for Meghan or Beth. :) 10/10

The Caley Bar embodies sophistication at its finest, providing a polished atmosphere that's just right for enjoying a drink and some quiet chat. Its ambiance perfectly melds elegance with comfort, creating an ideal haven for anyone wishing to relax with a touch of class. The cocktails are mixed with meticulous care and a dash of creativity, offering a broad spectrum of tastes to please all preferences.

Amazing place to have a formal drink, bar staff knows their drinks and how to make them, the best bar team in town for sure, especial thank to Damian for an excellent service

£15 for a glass of wine. Service cold, welcome frosty so won't be back.

This is exactly what you’d expect from a luxury cocktail bar. Beautiful place, warm atmosphere, huge selection, great cocktails, and staff who are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. We always feel welcome when we pop in for a drink. The drinks are delicious and the vibe is perfect. Staff know their stuff and go out of their way to make you feel welcome - whether you want a quiet drink to yourself or fancy a chat with someone new. There is always a chance of seeing a famous person enjoying a drink as well! As for food, hands down the best club sandwich in Edinburgh is served here. Always a 10/10 experience whenever we come here. Shout out to Charles, Ellie and assistant manager Lukas for their warm welcome.

Perfect atmosphere in a beautiful, cosy and stylish bar. We had whiskey and sherry based cocktails that were created by the excellent mixologist Ellie, all served with that unique warm, welcoming Scottish hospitality. Would definitely recommend this place.

Service impeccable. Came on Christmas Eve a nice before dinner drinks. Atmosphere cozy, pleasant, club like. Would come back more often. It isn't loud, can have a conversation without shouting.

Brilliant bar service by Domian. Staff so friendly and lovely cocktails

Charles, Ellis, and Ellie will absolutely take care of you here. Expert cocktails crafted in the most artful way possible. This isn’t your normal 5 star hotel bar or even your normal high end cocktail lounge, it’s something above that. Whether you’re staying at the hotel or simply passing through you will be welcomed in the most professional way and will absolutely have a fantastic time.

A lovely spot in just the right place, where you can enjoy all kinds of drinks: a wide selection of whisky and rum, great original cocktails, classics and also own mixes. Highly recommend, whether for couples, solo, or with a group of friends - I had an amazing time, the staff is also really nice and chatty, so you know they care about your comfort.

Great space & superb cocktails. Highly recommend the Edinburgh cocktail, prepared by expertly by the excellent Charles. Solid selection of scotch, which they were happy to help a novice like myself navigate.

Great service and friendly staff. Thanks Thomas, Emily and Charles.

No longer has any train history. :( Over priced and too fancy for me. Also a way too sweet old fashioned.

Good service but small choice of draught beers

Thank you Thomas for going above and beyond on our authentic Whisky experience. You were incredible!

Recently been refurbished, this is one classy bar that you want to be seen in. The decor is plush, with gorgeous comfortable seating, dim lighting and excellent cocktails. This is one perfect spot for romance - its sexy and ideal for making an impression. Obviously you dont have to go on a date! Large booths and cube seating to host large groups or just mates that fancy a wee night out.

This bar has had a makeover recently so we were curious to see what it looked like - we had never been in this bar before. Designers have gone for very dark low level lighting. One clever thing was attaching mini lights to the menus. As you can imagine, within a 5 star hotel, its not cheap. My wife had a very nice cocktail (Osaka) at £15 and I had a pint of 'Bitter & Twisted' for £7. Then add a 12.5% discretionary service charge.

Great place for a business meeting. Calm and cool.

Had a great time there, seats were comfortable and service was great. Little bit pricey and wifi signal was good there. Last order 11:30 PM

What a gem. Upon looking at the couple bartenders, i judged them to be too young to know anything about whiskey. I could not have been more wrong. They were fantastic on their knowledge and explanations about a variety of whiskey.

Great bar with an impressive array of spirits! Guys behind the bar were really knowledgeable which was no mean feat considering the incredible range of drinks and cocktails they were serving. Jonathan and Thomas were such great hosts and we strongly recommend their service.

Big shout out and an even bigger thank you to Jonathan, Thomas and Sophie at the Caley bar inside the Waldorff Astoria in Edinburgh. They saved our disappointing night on the town with great drinks, service and conversation. Thank you all and we look forward to seeing you again!

Great bar for a pre dinner drink. Very friendly staff.

Excellent drinks in a lovely atmosphere

Loved it, best bartender I've ever experienced. Ciaran deserves all the praise

Edinburgh's finest hotel bar. Superb staff. Comfortable and quiet environment. Pity about the awful muzak, please rethink this, it's awful and inappropriate for this classy 5 star piece of heaven.

Fantastic service from a great team, very game for fun! Delicious afternoon tea as well.

Sat for over 10 minutes waiting to be served. Walked out and went elsewhere

Great service, quality products, never been disappointed.

Sophisticated and comfortable bar space, served attentively by a team of waiting staff which will offer you practically any drink you can name - but with the inflated price tag that the luxury commands. Go here occasionally to treat yourself, but don't make it your regular unless you're the kind of person that never needs to read the bill at the end of the night...!

Wonderful atmosphere and great service. Great cocktails with bartenders that are very social and helpful.

Great place for a quiet drink, service is great and are always accommodating, price is a little higher than you'd get in other venues, but that is made up for in the service given.

Nice wee bar, food was pretty good but the overall cost for 2 burgers and 2 pints was a bit steep! Staff were helpful and friendly

Nowhere better for somewhere for a quiet drink & a chat - worth the money in a busy city centre

Il Caley Bar è parte integrante del Waldorf Astoria Caledonian e anticamente era la biglietteria della stazione. La scelta delle bevande a disposizione è infinita e la preparazione viene fatta in maniera impeccabile dal personale che è molto preparato e attento ad ogni richiesta. Assolutamente da provare sia da soli che in compagnia.

Große Auswahl am Whiskey und Gin

A very classy and laid back bar, lots of comfortable low arm chairs and small tables make this perfect to either kick off your night or for a cheeky night cap on your way home.

Great food, service and drink selection. Went as part of a large group and everyone was impressed.
