seriously, don't even bother, this place is a nightmare, drinks take a year to get served, bar staff are complete twats, and the bouncers are completely up themselves, stay clear of this place, unless your part of the mafia and about to come close it down, its a dog house.

One of my favorite pubs in edinburgh. Its got a great atmosphere with good music, cheap drinks and a space to dance. There is also lots of seating so you can usually find somewhere to sit. Its altogether a bril laff. oh yea and good cocktails which are really cheap

If you heading out with more than 2 males in your group then this is not the place to go! The doormen seem to take exception to most groups over the size of 2 no matter what age they are!

I was in this whole on Saturday night. It took an age to get served, the girl that served me was really rude and up herself. Just to top it off I was offered drugs on three seperate occasions!! Great advert for Edinburgh!

I went in to meet some friends about a week ago and went to the toilet just as I arrived at around 7.30pm. Just inside the gents toilet door was a huge pool of vomit!!
Having been in before and eaten I found Edwards to be nice enough, just don't go on a Saturday Night!!!

Went into Edwards under protest. Great place.Freindly doorstaff, cracking bar staff and a brilliant atmosphere. Totally brilliant night. No trouble or hint of trouble, just full of nice people enjoying themselves. Will be going back regularly.

if you can respect the door and bar staff in this pub then your going to have a good night, only reason the door staff are so up tight are to keep the idiots out off the pub, if they werent you would be complaing even more about fights, witch as I am a regular here arent that many.

Not a place I would visit again in a hurry. The bouncers asked my friend to leave on Saturday night as they accused her of falling asleep, she was actually using her mobile phone! As respectible 32 year olds being asked to leave after questioning why, this was well out of order. The place was full of chavs and neds, these must be the sort of customers that Edwards is aiming for. Certainly alienating its older more respectible customers. Will not be back.

This place used to be full of all the scum of the day, not now! There seems to be a new Manager who really knows how to run a bar. Great service too. What a change. Cheap promos pretty well all the time, ridiculously well priced wine and tasty food. Keep it up, this place rocks.

Edwards used to be a great place for a few before clubbing but recently since its "over 21's" policy was taken up and dropped again because they lost so much business it only seems to attract chavs and neds who are anti-social. Used to love it but theyve lost all the decent customers since the 21s ban

This is definitely a pub for trendy people only. Also, it tends to have big sections cordoned off for parties at the weekend, which can be annoying when you have to stand despite all the empty seats behind the rope!

AWFULL!!!! and thats all i really have to say.............

Just come back from Edinburgh and i have to say that on Friday night this place was great, hello to the girls who made us feel welcome especially a certain N.Ireland lass ( : Went on the Saturday but just too busy and a nightmare to get served, go on a friday about 10pm and it's great.

Great place to go on fridays at 10ish and then go to clubs near closing time. Nice place and a good atmosphere and a great DJ!
