I love this pub, live music, you have to go early because it fills up, at noon you can eat soup and sandwich, at night only snacks and drinks. Very cool place....

Stopped in for some live local music and some drinks and we enjoyed every moment. The drinks are typical and the music talent that night was amazing.

Ensign Ewart is an Edinburgh pub that delivers on all fronts. With a fantastic selection of whiskey and gin, great food (especially the cheeseboard and sandwiches), and a welcoming atmosphere with live music, this pub is a must-visit for both locals and tourists. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, and the history of the place adds an interesting touch. Although some customers were disappointed by a limited whisky selection, overall, Ensign Ewart stands out for its great food, drinks, cozy atmosphere, and live music. Don't miss out on this gem in the heart of Edinburgh!.
