"I 'm not a pub person, usually, but in another life this establishment was my watering hole whilst waiting for a special someone to emerge from work or something nicer. We are told that evolution is almost mandatory, but I don 't agree. 25 years later, and it 's just like coming home. Same welcome, same atmosphere, didn 't use the toilet so no evidence of inflatable sheep next to a machine selling tartan condoms as there was in 2009! Usual selection of alcoholic offerings, plenty of regional ales to keep me happy. Didn 't eat this time, but there 's no reason to suspect anything different other than excellence. No Muzak , plenty of soft furnishing and corners to lurk in. Being at the far end of the 'Royal Mile ' has it 's advantages. It can get busy around food times, but on a cold winter night out of the tourist season (whenever that is) a welcome place to sit, consume a leisurely pint and read without pressure. Gets my vote too as hasn 't adopted the 'treat the customer as a leper ' card only philosophy, which I find lazy and insulting, and instantly avoidable. A huge bonus was they are (well behaved) dog friendly, even to the extent of keeping dog treats, though you might like to choose somewhere larger if your canine companion is much bigger than a Border Collie, say.... Having experienced hostility elsewhere on the day of our visit, following a recent decision by Wetherspoons to ban dogs other than service dogs, this place was a very welcome refuge from the terrible weather outside. I 'm sure the proprietors won 't mind me mentioning their sad, involuntary claim to infamy. Long ago in another time, though recent developments in forensic technology brought closure. I 'll leave it to you, dear reader, to do your own research.... Enjoy!"

It's a great spot to grab some whiskey and hang out. The live music was nice it was more pop songs than folk if that's what you're looking for. View menu

Couldn’t get burgers so was a bit gutted. Loved the haggis and then the Mac and cheese with chips though. Been a few times and the foods always amazing.

My wife recommended this restaurant to me because it has a connection to the TV show Outlander. Despite not being a fan of the show, I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent service, delicious food, and overall enjoyable experience. Even though there were some tourists present, I highly recommend this restaurant. View menu

while on edinburgh my partner and I stopped at the worlds end bar because why not. we loved the story of the pub holding and while the pub is quite small, it is beautiful and contemporary decorated for its history. the bartender was very helpful to make sure our drinks were always full before we could empty them. we're gonna eat again for a drink and maybe something.

Tourist bar. We couldn't order some dishes because the oven broke. Food is normal, some dishes better than others but there is nothing extraordinary. It felt bad that they made us wait for a table while they cleaned it but they passed on to several people before us until we had to go claiming the table. The place is curious and finally the waiter was friendly but, it does not stop being a tourist site where you are a more tourist.
