Reviews of Eastside

E. J.

Honestly fantastic, we were looking for a fab bar all night and this was it. Drinks weren’t priced OTT. the staff were amazing and made things off menu, absolutely loved both the vibes and the staff here and would 100% recommend a visit here. Don’t do yourself an injustice and visit here. It’s next on our place to come for drinks in our next trip to Edinburgh. Thank you for the brilliant night honestly

I have been to Eastside a few times now, and will continue to return again and again. The atmosphere is great, and the service is even better. Chris makes some of the best cocktails I've had in my life - he will even change up the recipes based on my preferences of whisky and other flavours. He was even able to create the perfect drink for some of the pickiest drinkers I know! The overall drink selection is great - it seems like the bar is continuously adding and improving the brands and liquors they offer. Additionally the menu is growing and changing... Continuous improvement is definitely a focus here. Really cannot think of a better place or bartender to spend an evening at. And I haven't even mentioned how the DJ is always on point. I will be back at Eastside very soon!

Late night Cocktail bar, with pool table and leather sofa and high tables for those one on one conversations. This cocktail bar plays recorded music and has a dj set. You can get table service or order from the bar. Nice vibes.

P. E.

The staff is really welcoming and helpful, and the environment is great. The only downside is that for a place where you are supposed to be sitting while having drinks or food, the music is too loud. I was in with friends, and we left after 20 minutes because we could not listen to each other. Definitely won't be a place I'll think to come back to.

This bar has such a great feeling! Little hidden gem on the popular George Street. The staff are very welcoming and attentive. The cocktails alone are enough to warrant another trip to Edinburgh.

Really great venue. Large bar with indie board games, a good cocktail menu with a really good gin variety, a wide choice of snacks and toasts and three pool tables (free to play!). When I've been here first, it was for a gin workshop which I really enjoyed a lot. Definitely suggested for a night out with your friends.

It's a great atmosphere, very busy but super fun! Would recommend a visit, a bit of a hidden gem. Pool tables and friendly staff too.

Had a leaving event there, the staff are brilliant and helpful

M. S.

Nice bar and good food. Staff are awesome.

We had a private party here which took over the entire venue until late. It was an incredible night. The atmosphere of the bar was welcoming, the staff were friendly and fun. Plenty of places to sit and chat. Located on George Street, it's bound to get busy at peak times, but I'd recommend checking it out anyway. Nice place!

I always enjoy a visit to eastside. They have good cocktails, free pool tables and darts and generally a very chilled vibe. On Wednesdays they have a good pub quiz. I only knocked a star off because it always feels just a little bit sticky and the bathrooms are in need of a bit of TLC

K. M.

Great concept for a bar but apparently poor execution. Hope you like basic cocktails and Camden beer because that's your options. Food on offer, unless on a special night, is pretty sad as well. Admittedly wasn't in for the pool tables, which would have improved the night, but the bar would have remained less than impressive.

E. G.

Cocktails are lovely, cool concept, great music playlist. Sadly had to leave a lot faster than anticipated as the smoking area is directly outside and people did not go up the stairs, so second hand smoke was entering the bar. As an asthmatic I had to take my inhalers and leave. Ended up having to end our night overall early as I was wheezing badly. My asthma is well controlled, this doesn't normally cause an issue but it was bad.

M. M.

Really relaxed vibe, nice atmosphere . Not much choice on tap. Some really heavy second hand smoke getting in from people smoking on lower steps next to the entrance, all clothes went to the laundry bag in the morning.

R. B.

Great place for a casual night out. Pool table and dart boards available. Drinks are reasonable priced (especially for George street), the atmosphere is relaxed and bar staff are friendly!

g. m.

Great beer selections.. and good music..

S. M.

Had a great night in here, playing pool and chatting with most of the other customers. Thoroughly reccomend!

S. P.

Good atmosphere and good mix of ages, not overly populated with 'youngsters'. You can order at the bar or your order can be taken at your table. Staff very pleasant and welcoming.

F. M.

The concept of the bar is awesome. Street food Amazing beer and awesome cocktails. Would of gave it 5 stars but there is a small problem with the smoking area. I have a girlfriend that suffers from asthma and half way through our drink we had to leave because the smoking area is pretty much at the front door so there smoke was coming in to the bar and she started to wheeze. I'm an ex smoker and even I was noticing the amount of smoke coming in. As much as the smokers are at the side of the door there was a few when it got crowded who where standing at the entrance. Feel if someone a had lung condition not as controlled as my girlfriend you could have a serious issue on your hand. Again the bar is great but if the smoking situation was sorted I would be back. Unfortunately when my girlfriend struggles to breath midway through a drink I can't return.

First time here and so glad never had good after reading previous reviews. Other people in our group did and I can honestly say the burgers looked very average came wrapped in tin foil and the plastic basket you get in American diners. Cheap enough for drinks but for a Montpeliers bar the worst out of them all. Go to any other much nicer food, bigger selection of drinks oh and the toilets need upgraded no hand soap!!

k. R.

Had a lovely night tonight, I really must say the bar man John really made my night. Everything about this bar has been great and I really enjoyed my time! I would highly recommend coming here

I. L.

Ace cocktails. We had the band so you got a selection of cocktails for 4 quid..... fantastic value

L. K.

Pool tables and darts and a very good selection of drinks. A great chilled late night hang out spot.

C. L.

Very well run establishment. Skilled staff. Excellent customer service and great selection of beverages.

A strange atmosphere for George street, need to go back to try again before I can say for sure. Pool tables and a darts board for entertainment.

D. G.

Brilliant place for food, entertainment, excellent choice of music. Surprised by the food quality - complements to the Chef
