"What a great place and amazing oysters! We walked on the streets on our last day and saw a 20 something lady eating 30 piece of oysters in the window. That saw the first strange sign of something is going on. My wife loves oysters so it made sance to eat one or two pieces, since in Hungary there is no sea. We ended up eating 8 oysters together since there were Sunday Happy Hour for Oysters! That is lucky I have to say but the quality? Hmmm. Best we ever had. We did sit at the bar and our waitress recommended her favorite type of oyster and my wife liked it a lot. When paying I realized there is a happy hour so I asked for 2 of each 3 types and we tried all together too. The one type what is the favorite of the barman was blow my mind. I have to say I became an oyster lover myself thanks to White Horse and the staff. They made us feel good even it was a bit embarrassing to sit in just for two oysters at the first place. Their kindness helped us feel good end relaxed and give us the feeling we want to come back. Thank you guys. I also decided not to eat oysters in Hungary anymore but save up the money and come back this place everytime we are in Edinburg."

Exceptional, delectable and surprising in every way! Brilliantly run Edinburgh restaurant. The food was a religious experience and the staff were absolutely fantastic! It was an experience we’ll remember for a very long time! Thank you for the outstanding evening!

the white horse seafood oyster bar, named after the maritime word to describe the comb of crashing waves, modernized heroic seafood oyster. in the oldest guest house on the edinburgher royal mile they focus on the procurement of local products and the provision of diners with the possibility to share meals in their beautifully renovated space.

The best meal we have had all year! A lovely surprise! We randomly picked this place last minute on a Sunday night. The octopus was perfectly cooked, the scallops were juicy and paired well with the rest of the dish but the favorite was the scotch bonnet salmon. The wine was precisely paired and the service was friendly and quick. We will recommend to everyone

Excellent quality of seafoods on a Friday night. Do have a cocktail with pineapple juice. seafood is super fresh. Normally the kids don’t eat tasteless lobster but this time they love it very much. Not only suitable to have gathering with friends but also with small kids. 4-5pm is happy hour, oysters £2@, but only 2 types out of 3 are included in happy hour. Monkfish satay is fantastic too.
