Edinburgh's Authentic Irish Bar. The home of great live music, live sport, delicious homemade pub grub & the best pint of Guinness in town!
Spacious bar with traditional Irish decor, gourmet burgers, live music and big-screen sport.
Great spot, good vibes, friendly staff and pizza can be delivered straight to your table. The pizza was great but not completely the kind of pizza I like. I think it was the Super Mario I had, still evidently fresh ingredients.
Had a great night in this pub really great atmosphere π π
They have an insane amount of whiskies. Lots of seating and some good outside seats and window ones, though at the moment there's a giant construction site in the way. Good music and atmosphere though, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Great local pub.
Early open for the 6 nations home match. Great atmosphere, nice choice of beers for a chain pub. Particularly good back ground music on this occasion. Sounds weird, but it was. We left at 11am. So may have got more lively later I'd imagine.
Music is very noisy. Not somewhere for a quiet drink as there are football games/ sports played on TV here. There is a lot of seating but it's still quite busy, especially at peek drinking times. There is outdoor seating for smoker's, with a canopy so you don't get soaked which I thought was great. I wouldn't call this place expensive in regards to the price of alcohol in the capital city. I think all bars/ clubs in Edinburgh are overpriced. The outdoor seating is not solely for smokers, ur just so happened to be reading so it was only smokers outside at that present time. Many other times, on a sunny day it looks really pleasant to sit outside and enjoy a beverage alcoholic or not. You cam just order a coffee here, however, I wouldn't recommend if that's what you'd liked to do then here's probably not the best place to but you can. I think the crowd Malones attracts now is different under the previous management (Diane's pool hall). As I am no pool fan I didn't frequent this venue previously. I would return here but it would probably be better in a group of friends, rather than just two people. My expectations were it would be more Male orientated than it was. It was a great mix of people; males, females, under 25s, over 50s, tourists also. The noise level is the only reason I would be inclined not to come here in the evening, or when there's sports on. It's lovely when the sun is out and sitting outside with a refreshing drink. I'm sure there's an upper level, although I've never ventured that far, probably should. Although someone told me they serve food upstairs? I can't be certain, however, I certainly haven't saw food downstairs. Also I've not used their toilet facilities yest shl can't comment on that. Overall it was pleasant, friendly staff, fairly quick service considering how busy it was, not over priced, quirky interior, outdoor seating is always a bonus for me. I couldn't spend a whole evening here, after 2 or 3 drinks the noise is too much. Great to check it out now it's under new management.

Here at Thompson's Bar, it's about the pints, the pies and the banter! The best steak pie in Edinburgh to match the best variety of real ales and Scotch whiskys.
