Our stunning pub sits in the shadow of the craggy backdrop of Edinburgh Castle. Boasting a history going back some 400 years, we’re big on hospitality and have been making locals and tourists feel at home in the Beehive Inn for quite a few years.

Soak up the atmosphere of the vibrant Grassmarket either indoors or out in the street café area. To the rear of the Beehive you’ll find a secret garden terrace which is set over three levels and is also served by an outdoor bar. We hope you’ll make a date to pop in to this iconic Edinburgh pub where a warm welcome awaits!
