You're able to do a mobile order and pay for your food there, but if you want the discount you have to order from the bar and show your room key. They were open pretty late so it was convenient for me to grab a bite with my adjustment to the time change still off. The burger was ok, it came with some gravy to dip my fries and burger in but I didn't use it. There are a lot of better places to eat in Edinburgh but I just went here out of convenience. They host a lot of daily events so I imagine those are fun to socialize and meet new people passing through.

Wetherspoons has a reputation in the UK ranging from great to terrible. I had never been in one…read moreuntil my recent trip to Edinburgh brought me to The Caley Picture House. That Wetherspoons took over an old theater that started out as a silent picture venue in 1923 and later turned into a music venue (where notable acts like Queen, Pink Floyd, and The Smiths had played) really intrigued me! When I told my husband that Wetherspoons is known for their cheap meals and beer, he was all in! The Caley Picture House did not disappoint. What a cool, gorgeous place! We found a table and ordered our meals from their app, and they were delivered a short time later! They have meal deals which include drinks (you pay just a little more to include alcoholic drinks). My husband had their ramen and I had a jacket potato with roasted veggies. I had a delicious cider with mine and my husband had an IPA. We so enjoyed the experience that I took out my phone and ordered ice cream for dessert. We took note of the breakfast menu and came back the next morning to check it out. We both had inexpensive egg and English muffin sandwiches that came with unlimited coffee (a serve yourself espresso machine that included mochas). Really good! The Caley Picture House is fabulous! We told our son he needs to check it out and bring friends. This place is enjoyed by the young and old and everyone in between. We'll be back the next time we are in town!

I mean it's OK - they've got a couple of decent beers on and the food is passable. But it's just got a bit of an odd feel to it. Also, it felt a little touristy. I'm struggling to sum up my feelings for this place. It's OK, but I can see no reason to ever go there because there are so many other places that are better. Yeah, that's a fair assessment. Not cheap either.

Down below in the basement level of Teviot lingers the Sportsman Bar! This bar provides coverage of…read moreall main sporting events and many football matches. The action can be seen on a large projected screen and also on several smaller wide screen televisions. The bar itself is currently getting a slight make over with lighter and fresher colours being added to the walls. There are loads of seating areas, including a couple of very comfy sofas! Furthermore, there are game machines and a wii! However, if you are still in need of some more entertainment then upstairs there are two rooms with pool tables. One room, which sits as a balcony above the main part of the Sportsman bar is dedicated to American pool tables while the other room has British pool tables. A word of warning though, even though pool costs 50p a game, the tables are highly unreliable and you will be very lucky if you don't go through an entire game without losing the cue ball or having to kick the table! Drinks are at student prices, but the Sportsman Bar does not have the same range of drinks on offer compared to the Library Bar. It is great that this bar is getting a makeover which it needs, and which will make this bar even better!

This is definately a chip shop I would recommend.

The interior has been replaced, a pool tabel installed and new tvs put in everywhere, which makes it an ideal place to catch a game. On big match days it does get very busy so be prepared to stand if you have to. The also do a pub grub menu which is very cheap and quite good food aswell. In the morning they are open as a kind of sandwich shop which serves sandwiches and soups etc at a kind of seperate bit divided from the pub, which the keep up until lunch and then take awa the divider to have the pub as one big place in the afternoons/evenings. The pub has a great atmosphere and since its name change has many more younger people in it, the prices for drinks are great too. At weekends you can also catch the Kareoke or disco!

Situated literally 50 metres from Tynecastle stadium, it's an obvious hotspot with the Hearts…read moresupporters and all around the pub you will find Hearts memorabilia as well as signed Scottish football shirts and the like. The decor of the pub is pretty old, but in all honesty this is probably what gives the pub so much character I came here just before a Hearts game versus Rangers and it was very packed, but the bar staff were very fast in taking orders. The vast majority who venture into the Tynecastle Arms are Hearts supporters with away fans opting to frequent other venues. I would come back here, but only if I were going to see Hearts play.

This pub, for decade's was a great pub. When Stevie was…read morerightly removed and Sharon was hired as manager, it became a pub to avoid ( except, of course on a matchday, at Tynecastle ). She ( Sharon, the manager) is an ignorant, arrogant, condescending, disgusting individual. The pub no longer has any kind of atmosphere. She constantly slags off staff to the regular punters and other members of staff. And overall she lacks any kind of personality and has killed this once great public house. As someone who has worked and managed all over Edinburgh, from five star hotels to pubs with questionable reputations, I've never met such an ignorant individual or someone with such poor people skills. Take away her customer service skills ( or lack of ) she knows how to work a bar, that's not in question, it's her disgusting personality that's destroyed this pub.
