Friendly staff, great selection of local craft ales and Whisky, even has a few seats outside for the days!
A proper traditional British bar hidden down a close off the Royal Mile. The roaring fire makes this a perfect place for a whisky mac after exploring the city's Christmas market or the courtyard is a good place to have a drink on a sunny afternoon.
Traditional pub, good selection of changing guest ales, and reasonably priced whisky. -- Just recently voted in the top 50 pubs in the UK by CAMRA (Campaign for Real Ale).
The Jolly Judge sits at the foot of an Edinburgh ‘close’, at the centre of one of the capital’s historic Old Town, a mere 2 minutes’ walk from the Castle. A log fire, low-beamed ceilings, a lack of distracting music and an off-duty piper or two characterise this stalwart on the Edinburgh pub scene. It’s easy to miss, semi-underground and tucked away at the end of one of the Royal Mile’s famous alleyways. It serves as a hangout for the local busking community (who roll up for a pint or two between shifts). One of them, Tam, who has busked around the corner for nearly 20 years, describes the Jolly Judge as “a braw wee place with bags of character”. And he’s bang on the money.
