Recently a small bunch of Yelpers rocked the mic at Supercube…read more Super fun can be had at Supercube which caters for karaoke groups in various sizes - pre-booked or walk-ins. Great service from the start introduces you to how it all works. With an extensive song list menu you will never be stuck for choice and this is available for viewing on their website too! Comfortable, sizeable rooms come with basic seating, a gigantic screen filling an entire wall (much better than a wee tv screen) and room service via a button on the wall to provide for your eating and drinking needs from the menu. During pauses between songs, nearby rooms could be heard belting out their lungs/murdering songs. The only downside was that the room was quite expensive and on paying bills at the end before leaving we merged with another large group in the small reception area who had come out at the same time so there was quite a delay in getting payments done and dusted. Never the less, I'm sure I'll be back, but with a larger group to justify the cost of the room.

This service is outstanding the proprietor is extremely friendly and the selection of beer and alcohol is excellent. Excellent bar menu everything from Fish and chips to burgers as well as mac & cheese. Very fair price and everything tasted outstanding. The place is extremely clean and very well kept. They have videos playing on multiple screens of TVs. Also a couple of electronica pub games. And if you need they also have coffee. Wish this place was closer to the states. You have to stop in and say hello and try and paint.

Yet, for those students who do come here, this makes it all the better! The atmosphere is much more relaxed than many of the more central pubs as locals can meet the students. The selection of drinks is good and prices are alright as well. The best bonus is the adjacent lounge however, connected to the main bar, but having its own entrance. This lounge can easily be booked for societies and events, and while it does have the typical cozy pub feel to it, it is guaranteed to provide lots of fun, given the bar and the karaoke machine!

Have never been in before when it gets busy as I am sure it must. The patrons all seem to be regulars and older gentlemen. Place seems clean and make tasty looking bar food. I feel like I always get watched when I go in because I am not a regular, but in a curious look nothing hostel or anything like that. This particular day was funny as the old guys were listening to and playing American country music on the jukebox and singing along. I should have joined in cause I knew every song playing but I let them enjoy their moment of Willie Nelson and Garth Brooks glory! So yes a cozy little pub with interesting characters and lots of good music. I am a fan and on the rainy days I am waiting for the bus I will becoming in for a wee pint and enjoying the chill atmosphere.

This place holds a very special place in my heart…read more Besides having worked here behind the bar, I have many fond memories of late nights and flowing drinks here with friends. It's an unofficial local nexus for Fence Records, the small indie label started by a friend of mine over a decade ago, and chances are if you pop in here on a Friday afternoon you might just run into someone you know. Over the years the Ship has seen its share of music, and like any local pub worth anything it has a healthy cast of regulars who'll you'll find propping up a bar stool everyday. The nautical theme is par for the course in this seaside village, but there are loads of really neat historical shots framed and hanging on the walls that are worth checking out if you're ever in there. And be sure and say hi to Dave, the owner!

It's kinda divey and I loved it. Not super high end, but very comfortable, welcoming and friendly(as a 'merican no less) and we never once felt offput. I see the reviews and I guess a ~4 star is 'justified' as it isn't spotlessly clean and you can nitpick some things but I thought it was excellent and I hope to go back. There's lots of choices in the vicinity if a local dive isn't your thing. Plan accordingly and go in with an open mind.

This is really what you would call an old mans pub (though to me old counts as over 30, so don't be…read moreoffended by this statement), but it's friendly enough and doesn't make you feel out of place. On Friday and Saturday nights you get karaoke here and that's been the reason for my visits, because you get a decent amount of numbers in without the same amount of wait time you get elsewhere. All round it's a decent enough pub, but I still feel a bit too young to truly feel at home here - maybe when I'm older though.

The one I went to was a Celeidh. The hall can easily hold about 200-300 people. I believe, we were about 70 -90 people and of which there was still plenty of space left for all the Celeidh dancers in the middle and plenty of tables on both sides. At either end of the room you could find the bar and the stage with the band playing the rhythms of traditional folk music. This Hall can be used for plenty of purposes, like weddings or parties or galas or......Upstairs are the toilets that are in ok conditions. Overall the place is clean and was nicely presented. Nothing fancy when I was there, but I can imagine it can be dressed up for special occasions. Personally I don't know the room rate or other costs, but I'm sure if you inquiry you will find out. The location is very central and only a 5-10 min walk from Grassmarket. Buses 2 and 35 pass by as well as plenty others.
