Earl of Marchmont

A recently refurbished pub in the heart of the beautiful residential area of Marchmont—home to the major part of Edinburgh's student population—Earl of Marchmont offers a clean, cosy space for locals and students alike, while young families are also welcome (children's high chairs are on offer.)

Its dark décor combined with a comfy sofa create a relaxed atmosphere, where the mainly young clientele can enjoy a decent range of spirits, wines and beers served by the always friendly staff.

Drinking aside, there is also a nice selection of meals at reasonable prices, with lamb moussaka and pasta with chicken in a creamy sauce being the highlights. Music is for the most part downtempo, which is a plus, while jazz themed Sunday evenings will ensure a second visit to this small corner of Edinburgh.
