Kays Bar is a hidden gem within the new town, we have 7 Cask Ales, a wide range of premium wine & spirits. The real fire povides an instant glow enhancing the womb of warmth.
Originally a Georgian coach house, in the early Victorian era the building was remodelled into John Kay and Sons, Wines and spirits Merchants. Sympathetically modified in the 1970's the bar hosts a plethora of original Victorian features.
We source our ales from all over the UK and we always have seven guest ales available. The beers change regularly so come in and have a try. As well as our ever changing Guest Ales we have a range of bottle beer.
We stock several house wines from a refreshing Garganega to a very quaffable Merlot!.

Doesn’t get any better. Proper pub with history, great staff (Andrew). No actual point in going to Edinburgh unless you stop here for a pint and something to eat. A hidden jewel
The most incredible wee pub - as in proper pub - I’ve ever seen. The fire place is the cherry on top. Nae tourists, no highland coos, no overpriced shortbread, just a proper tiny pub for friendly locals, with great staff and a lovely selection of reasonably priced cask and keg ales. Need to bring back the shrink wrapped ham and cheese n pickle bar rolls. Outstanding place that deserves every penny.
Wonderful little gem tucked away on a hidden street in the middle of new town. Really nice staff and cozy pub, we had a great time here! My new favorite pub in Edinburgh.
It's a locals pub with flare and atmosphere! Not big just right. Great selection of scotch's.
I have been meaning to try this pub for years when I was working nearby and it was closed due to Covid, so I made an effort to do so over Easter and I wasn't disappointed. It was like stepping back in time in the nicest of ways. A quaint, clean pub with well-kept ales, a real coal fire, fresh sandwiches, dog friendly with a selection of newspapers to read. This is clearly a popular local pub in a wealthy enclave of Edinburgh with prices to match. You can expect to pay £5.60 for a pint of real ale and £7 for Beavertown lager. This pub has been crowned by CAMRA for its ales and is worth seeking out if you want to enjoy a quiet drink in quaint surroundings with friendly locals. Highly recommended.
