The Royal Mile Tavern in Edinburgh, City of

Had a great time at the Royal Mile Tavern! We stopped in for a drink and loved the lively, welcoming atmosphere. The pub has a great vibe—perfect for relaxing and enjoying a drink with friends. The staff was friendly, and the overall experience was fantastic. Definitely a spot I’d recommend for anyone looking for good drinks and a fun, laid-back atmosphere!

Great menu, excellent food and service, nice pub atmosphere, and very reasonable prices for the quantity and quality of food.

Closed! A waitress told us there was a fire. Now it doesn't even have a floor (as you can sort-of see in the pictures). (I gave it 5 stars for past effort and future wishes. Plus it was interesting to look in the window and see the charred remains of notices on the wall).

Brilliant service great atmosphere vast collection of whiskey to choose from live music can be quite busy but lots of fun

Authentic ! The rare opportunity to fraternize with the locals 🇨🇵🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 well done!!

Beautiful pub and nice atmosphere to enjoy in the city of Edinburgh a very good local pint! I Fully recommend!!!

Fuimos sólo para el desayuno, pero de quedarnos más dìas seguramente hubiéramos vuelto. La ambientación, la amabilidad y por supuesto el menú, hicieron de nuestra experiencia un momento muy agradable.

Maravilloso y unico. Tradicional, la atencion es propia, uno retira dn la barra su pedido yvlo lleva su mesa.

We had all day to explore Edinburgh so after our castle tour we strolled down the Royal Mile looking for a great place to eat. So many choices and we opted to try the Royal Mile tavern. It was just filling up with lunch crowd. Although short staffed, the bartender managed to keep all the tables hoppin. I got a very yummy bangers and mash. My wife got chicken pot pie which was good, but after I gave her a bite of my lunch, she wished she got the bangers and mash. Overall a nice place to eat.

Great taste, great place. I advise.

Came here for dinner in the middle of the week. The atmosphere was spot on . Food was great and the music was perfect. Even my teenagers relaxed enough to talk with us

We stood in front of a closed door. Apparently destroyed by a fire... unfortunately the pub next door was open and cozy.

Nice place, wonderful food but sad that no salmon and no haggis was available … thats a no go. Regarding to that one star less.

Το φαγητό ήταν ικανοποιητικό και στις δύο επισκέψεις μας. Ωστόσο την δεύτερη φορά η εξυπηρέτηση ήταν αργή και η αναμονή στην πόρτα αδικαιολόγητη.

This was the best pub we went to in Edinburgh. Lovely atmosphere and the food was incredible. My burger was some of the best pub grub I have ever eaten.

Welcoming, great service and lovely food. We had bar snacks and cocktails with coffee. Liam and Amina were very helpful!

Amidst a plethora of changing, faddy food places in a tourist hot spot, the Royal still stands out as a traditional- feeling howff, serving decent food, at fair prices in a warm atmosphere. It may be part of a chain these days, but most are,and this place still has the right mix of cheery banter and good vittles!

Fue una muy buena experiencia, la música en directo es genial!!

Essen ist sehr gut. Der Lachs war einfach nur köstlich. Gute Auswahl an Bieren. Personal ist zurückhaltend freundlich. Die Einrichtung empfand ich als sehr angenehm! Viele Bilder, Spiegel, usw. Die Musik war super!

A quiet weekend evening that still had a vibe

The staff was very friendly, but over all the service was not great. We walked in and were seated right away, but then service after that was very slow. The food on the other hand was delicious! The waiter recommended the highland chicken, which I loved. They had plenty of vegetarian options and alternatives available, which was great for my friend.

Pub e ristorante tipico scozzese, bello e caloroso e musica dal vivo dopo le 20.30

Amazing pub. Staff are friendly and wonderful and the food is exceptional. Cant ask for more.

Amazing drinks and amazing music by Acustic David

Hostile door staff with an ego. Avoid, seriously. Go next door.

Locale di grande fascino. Ottimo il cibo, a cominciare dall'haggis superiore a quello consumato in altri ristoranti. Avendone l'occasione è un locale dove ritornerei sicuramente.

Great pub restaurant meal was excellent. Staff very attentive.

I went for macaroni cheese big mistake. Tasteless def not worth the money plus garlic bread accompaniment was burnt. Never again. Left most of it and waitress said she would let the kitchen staff know - big deal. My partner had fish and chips again a big let down but he ate it as he was hungry. Would never eat t here again

We really enjoyed this place. The staff is lovely and good humored what’s the most important thing for us🫶🏼 thank you

Ottimo tutto ma il salmone sia nell'antipasto che come piatto principale spettacolare 😍 Da abbinare alla stella artois

Nous y sommes allés plusieurs fois, un midi pour déjeuner, service agréable et attentionné, plats proposés typique de la région et bonne bière. Un soir, pour l'ambiance avec live music super et grosse ambiance. Si vous ne devez qu'un pub, faites celui-ci sans hésitation

We ate here twice during our weekend stay in Edinburgh. The food was fantastic for what is quite an unassuming looking pub on the inside. Granted the feasting platter we shared on our first visit didn’t look very elegant, but everything was cooked well and it was just what we needed after arriving in the city from London. We returned for dinner before flying home, with my wife enjoying the bangers and mash in a giant Yorkshire pudding, while I had the Highland chicken stuffed with haggis, which was absolutely scrummy. Staff were very friendly on the whole, and the prices reasonable for the quality of both food and drink.

Excellent hostel. The staff is always smiling and willing to help. Everything is very clean and comfortable! The location is awesome!!! I loved my stay at Royal Mile.

We came here for lunch over the Christmas period. Myself and my other half both had a locally caught haggis and then deep fried Mars bars for dessert. The service was friendly and the food was brilliant. I'd definitely come back

- Nos sentamos en una mesa al lado de la puerta, hacia mucho frío y no nos permitieron cambiar estando casi todo el local vacío. - Comida mala. La sopa del día eran macarrones con tomate aguados, el perrito duro que no había quien lo mordiese y los tacos nada del otro mundo. Aparte de que era más caro que en otros sitios de la zona. No lo recomiendo

Small but friendly restaurant. Very reasonable price, the owner was really courteous and friendly

Une excellente surprise. Les plats étaient très bons avec des produits de qualité. Le service était au top dans ce bar restaurant à l'ambiance conviviale. Les prix étaient très intéressants au vu de la qualité. Je recommande vivement

Saul and Louis were so friendly/ funny! They gave me great travel tips and they had fun trying to guess where I'm from just from listening to my accent! Highly recommend the fish n chips. Super flaky moist fish. They also have live music on some evenings

Je recommande cet endroit pour déjeuner ou dîner! Les plats ultra copieux, savoureux et pas chers du tout! Le staff incroyablement simples et aux petits soins! Un des serveurs si gentils nous a indiqués les endroits à visiter! Bref so scottish!

Great food, really tasteful and excellent service. Very kind people and you can go with your kids. There's also an area to "park" the pram. Thank you!

Came to the pub on a trip to edinburgh a couple of years ago and returned this weekend with my partner. We had a great time - there’s lovely drinks and atmosphere in the pub and the food is delicious.

Barman did not know what drink I wanted I tired to show him & another member of staff had a go at me ! On my birthday won’t be back He could not find the drink on the till ! I was only showing him I don’t think I look like I could cause trouble a woman in her 50 s What’s the world coming to ! 😡 Rude beyond belief

Aunque el precio puede parecer elevado, los platos de gran tamaño y están increíblemente buenos. Además de que todas las noches tienen música en directo. Muy recomendado

Un posto di sicuro interesse, hanno ricreato un ambiente che evoca la storicità di Edimburgo. Purtroppo la ristorazione non spicca per originalità, mi sarei aspettato un po' di fantasia in più rispetto agli altri ristoranti. Il menù è la fotocopia di tanti altri locali nella zona, la qualità del cibo è discreta, la gestione si divide tra sopra ristorante (prenotate) e sotto bar... Entrate e se vedete un posto libero vi sedete.... Non aspettate come me che vi venga chiesto di accomodarvi perché rischiate di attendere invano 😉 Costo in linea con tutti gli altri locali... Ovvero costoso ma se andate altrove forse risparmiate qualche Pound nel totale nulla di più

Awesome atmosphere, staff, food and local musical talent.

Amazing place and live song was softened.

Great authentic Taverne with deliciuous haggis. Friendly staff and good joice of drinks

Perfect Haggis. Was great there 😀

Siamo stati al The Royal Mile per cenare, hamburger e fish&chips ottimi. Personale gentile e atmosfera accogliente. Prezzi nella media della zona.

Wow!! Great fun, great dinner. Louis was a great host!!! Cheers!!!

On a cold, wet January day I would recommend the Mac and Cheese and messy hot dog. The best warming, comfort food ever! The staff and their service are exceptional; the pub itself is lovely and welcoming. Visit this pub.

Muy buena atención, comida rica y lugarmuy animado con música en vivo cada día.

Really friendly lively place with a great atmosphere . Came for a drink and some Mac n cheese. Young guys behind the bar were very friendly and service was excellent .

Locale accogliente e personale cortese, musica piacevole e soprattutto cibo TOP. Prezzi giusti nella media, consigliato.

Pub très sympa, le personnel est adorable et attentionné. On y mange des plats traditionnels très bons et copieux. Bon rapport qualité prix. Vous pouvez vous y arrêter sans pb.

Excellent food and excellent and friendly service.

Great wee pub, with good food, great ales, and nice atmosphere.

Was nice too go for a drink,nice staff and a good time with the live music.the musicians are always good.there’s different ones.nice atmosphere, Iove this pub.

The highland chicken is the meal I recommend, the tastiest meal I’ve had in years, really great food

Great pub. Lovely friendly staff good drinks on offer

A quite and nice pub, good food and not expensive.

What a perfect spot to duck out of the December chill for a bite. Cozy, warm, and Christmas was in the air. Santa hat bedecked staff were so friendly and fun. Nice vegetarian options but beware when ordering the veggie fried sampler platter, it was enough for 4 people! Delicious and delightful! Will return if we ever find ourselves strolling down the exciting Royal Mile!

Staff isn't really welcoming. Prices are ok though

Fantastic staff and great food.

This place was really nice but the staff was actively trying to discourage customers from coming in. It was 730 pm on Thursday Not enough management here to oversee food quality and customer service

Terrible, 30m waiting to be attended. I just left. Honestly never back, not worth it and also over priced

Absolutely beautiful place. Atmosphere was fantastic. Relaxed, friendly, clean. Good food. Lachy was especially helpful. Definitely will return.

Great food, great service. We visited with kids and were very welcoming and great child menu too! Never made it to dessert due to being too full, but nachos and burger were spot on. Good sized portions making it very good value for money! Will...

Totally unaceptable, 40 minutes waiting to be atended, not worth it

Came for pie of the week. After having to pay at the bar are order was forgotten. After 45 mins I mentioned to staff that did not have our order. Finally they released order didn't go through. Waited annother 10 minutes and was served a bowl of stew wth a puff pastry lid that was too small for the bowl. This is not a pie. Got a refund however lost an hour.

Friendly staff offering table service. If you like old nick.nacks, you will love the interior design.

Our family happened to meet Simon, the owner, who told us to check out The Royal Mile Tavern for lunch. Hands down, it was our best meal in Edinburgh and our server, Rob, was outstanding! Overall, it was an amazing meal, with great atmosphere. Wish...

Amazing place, food outstanding! Went today for lunch, great atmosphere. We will be back tomorrow before we go home. Been to Gordon Ramseys and the ivy and hands down you are the best. Don’t waste your money people, go here first!

Great as usual! Love the deep fried Mars bar!

No conocia una taverna y tuve la dicha de ir a Royal Mile. A mi me encanto la experiencia. Vivanla uds.

I had a really nice time. The best crafted beer in town and great whisky assesment. I will definitely return when coming back to Edinburgh. The bartenders are excellent :)

Great food and atmosphere, staff very friendly, tried the battered Mars bar desert for first time 👌 Definitely return next time I visit Edinburgh A+++++

Nice and cosy, very clean. Good beer.

Excelent pub. Excelent service, Best crafted beer in Town :) i will definitely return when coming back to Edinburgh

Went in with some contiki friends as a random lunch spot- couldn’t get a photo because we ate the food so fast! Fantastic food and friendly service! We didn’t even notice a wait time but they still offered complementary drinks as a thanks for waiting. So pleased with the service

Good whiskey and great place to listen to live music and dance together with all pub 🔥😊

Loved their haggis!! Service was great! We will back for sure when in Edi again!

Located as the name suggests right on the Royal Mile. Think the clientele would generally be tourists. We came in here as we had read that the Guinness was one of the better Guinness that you'd find in Edinburgh. Whilst the Guinness was not as good as you'd find in Ireland, it certainly was one of the better pints you would get in Edinburgh. Friendly staff.

Apart from good beer selection the Royal Mile Tavern suprised us with wonderful food - their Cullen Skink must have been the best one we had in the entire Scotland!

Great place, great homey feel. Amazing live music would Recommend to anyone

We visited this place twice during our stay in Edinburgh. Fantastic choice of drinks really enjoyable food great atmosphere, brilliant location. Loved it!

Lovely pub and food in heart of Royal Mile

Molt bon menjar. Ambient molt agradable. Recomanable en la vostra visita a Edinburgh.

What a great pub, great music and attentive staff. Will be visiting in the future for sure. Drop in if your on the Royal Mile for a drink🥃

Brilliant live music at the weekend

First time visiting here and had deep fried Mars bar with Irish Black Russian and I loved it! Good friendly staff, fair prices

Gullen Skink was delisious. Place is quite convenient.

We visited on a Sunday evening, it was fairly busy but a table came free and we ordered food. The food was really good and we really enjoyed our meal. The pub is lovely inside with and felt very festive with a nice Christmas tree in the middle. We would definitely come back. There was also live music on later that evening.

Много хубаво заведение в центъра на Единбург. Храната е вкусна. Може да опитате различни ястия и всичко ще ви хареса. Персонала е приятелски настроен но имат много работа и трябва да се запазите с търпение. Но докато изпиете една бира и вечерята ще дойде.

We usually stop in during our trips to Edinburgh. Food is good, service is a little slow for beverages. This last visit, we ended up leaving and going to a other bar. Great atmosphere though and always a good time.

Gammon was very salty & too much black pepper used as seasoning. Sausages were burnt & too peppery, mash was fine yourkshire pudding was hard.

First time in Scotland and I tried the haggis here, it was delicious and savory!!!! The waiter is super nice too

Accueil chaleureux, Cadre très sympa, Service super et rapide, serveur sérieux et à l'écoute, Haggis et fish and chips délicieux,...

Sehr coole Atmosphäre, große Auswahl an Getränken und gute Musik
