Hame fae hame in Edinburgh’s famous Old Town.

Abody’s welcome at Pipers, from the lone wanderer, happy couples, families or groups on a night out. Even dugs are our pals…….we support “Dugs in Pubs”, welcoming all well behaved pooches in our bar area.

Find us in the heart of the old town, on Hunter Square, behind The Tron just off The Royal Mile. We carry a great selection of malt whiskies, local gins and an eclectic range of craft beers. Our cocktails are fun and tasty! If you’re hungry, our food menu consists entirely of Scottish favourites and we use locally sourced ingredients where possible. Think your Granny’s kitchen!

If live music is your thing, we have you covered. We’ve got some of the best local entertainers on circuit, 7 nights a week with a mixture of traditional Scottish tunes and upbeat covers. If it’s a party you want, we’re here for you!
