  What a stunning bar tucked away in Advocate’s Close, right off the Royal Mile in Edinburgh. We were visiting from London and looking for a great cocktail spot for the evening and this place absolutely delivered. Aesthetically beautiful, with amazing cocktails and genuinely attentive service. Not to mention their exquisite whisky collection, which is an experience in itself. The small plates were delicious too, making it the perfect spot to unwind. Highly recommended.

  It’s an overall nice place. We had soup, some starters, and really good truffle fries. The service felt a little bit pushy at times, but also quite attentive, so maybe it was just the Sunday evening vibe. The whisky Old Fashioned was great, and the cocktail To the Point - highly recommend, super tasty. Overall, an average good experience

  We sat outside because restaurant was packed. It was chilly but quiet and very nice. Waiters were very good. The pork chop was excellent. The flat iron steak was supposed to be medium, but it came well done. The honey and buttered greens were excellent. Definitely recommend to come here.

  Most lists have this as the place to go for a top notch whisky selection and I see why. Wonderfully designed flights to provide whatever variety you want. Couple this with 391 more you could try off the self and you’ll need to have an exit plan and a way to get home. The flights give very generous pours. It’s worth it to share the flight. I loved my tour of Scotland and the help the staff gave with the journey was invaluable. The food was borderline boutique but plentiful and very good. Sitting outside provides a nice feel for people watching and the inside is a great slice of history. A must stop.

  Great spot for both intimate dinners and big group hangouts. The bar strikes a cool balance between rustic and modern, and their whisky tasting flight is a fun touch—especially for anyone visiting Edinburgh. We had the duck, hake, haggis, and crab cakes. All were decent, though nothing mind-blowing. The crab cakes came out a bit cold, which was a letdown. Overall, the food was just okay, but the ambience and drinks made up for it. Bonus points for their wine list—the Picpoul was genuinely excellent.
