Classic Edinburgh pub with beautiful old woodwork & a great pint selection. Always busy, but that?s part of the charm.
Friendly service & loads of character, worth a stop if you?re in town.

Great pub in the city centre - a real old style good honest pub with a great range of sprits, beers and real ale. Staff are friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming and know who's next to be served! Hope to be back soon and trying out their food (eating area also upstairs) it looks great!

100000/10000 amazing food. The fish and chips was so good and the pie as well, had to come back for more!

A proper pub! Clean tables, clean bar area, clean floor & importantly small selection of great beers and a v.reasonable offer of interesting whiskeys. Nothing fancy just a genuine authentic feel to the place on this Monday afternoon. No loud music, just the hum of conversation and a sense that the staff care about delivering good service. This is a place to be proud of and a place to visit. Didn?t sample the food but it looks like classic good pub fare! V. Impressed.

The Abbotsford Bar and Restaurant
We were in the bar, not in the Above Restaurant.
It is very beautiful, tasteful bar with quite a few local customers.
Very welcoming and kind bartenders. Good choice of beers.
At the start of our tour of Scotland, two weeks ago, we vowed that we would not eat haggis. Our wonderful bartender Irmina talked us into it, after asking if we eat hotdogs: don?t think what goes into it, just enjoy the taste. Abbotsford has reputedly one of the best haggis of Edinburgh. We tried it and it tasted really good. Thank you Irmina
