Our Take

Royal Mile's 300-Whisky Bar with Daily Live Trad

Whiski Bar & Restaurant is the Royal Mile's most respected whisky bar — 300+ Scotch whiskies, daily live trad music, and modern Scottish menu. The room is wood-panelled with leather banquettes and a long mahogany bar.

The whisky list runs 300+ bottles including rare bottlings from closed distilleries. The bartenders are whisky specialists and walk through the regions before pouring. Cash and card friendly.

Pair with The Bow Bar for a more heritage whisky experience.

What to Order
Macallan 18
Premium Highland sherried Scotch. The Whiski standard.
Lagavulin 16
Islay peated single malt. The smoky default.
Whisky Flight
Three rotating Scotches from different regions. The way to use the bar.
Live Trad Music
Daily from 19:00. The Royal Mile heritage music ritual.
