Edinburgh's oldest pub, dating back to around 1360! Allegedly a favourite spot for Mary Queen of Scots and in summer 2016 our current Queen Elizabeth II stopped off for a visit! There's a beer garden, conservatory and a 19th century skittle alley. A great place for some food and drink after a walk up Arthur's Seat.
