It is hidden behind Princes Street, away from the tourist life. Original decorative elements (dating from 1862) have been preserved, in particular the mosaics recounting moments of life in the 19th century. Seafood has been enjoyed within these walls since Victorian times! Among other fish dishes and beautiful seafood dishes, the house's specialty remains oysters, served fresh on its bed of ice, with lemon. One of the most beautiful pubs in Edinburgh and in that respect, it deserves a break!

I love the Cafe Royal, it used to be one of our go-to places when we were in the City Centre. For some reason some bright spark has decided to play loud, thumping music at an ear-splitting level, making conversation almost impossible. This wonderful Edinburgh institution is in grave danger of becoming just another noisy pub with zero atmosphere. Such a shame!

I visited w/c 1/4/24. While the food was OK, the service was pretty poor. Everything seemed to be manyana. I had to clear my own table. The server cleared some glasses then left other things on the table as he moved on to serving another table. When I asked if it was bar or table service the barman said "its up to you". The attitude just seemed a bit off. Newer venues are opening up locally and if the Cafe Royal keeps this level of service they will surely lose repeat business. A shame!

Bel endroit, service accueillant. Nous avons très bien mangé, la viande était très bonne ainsi que le cheese cake.
