I tried their Legend Burger with Guiness beerThe guiness beer is one of the best beers i have drank. The ambience is quite loud inside and outside is calmer. Great place to hang out with friends when you are visiting Edinburgh
Visited here for a casual dinner of an evening, two of us including a 4 year old. Fantastic service by Analisa. I had the chilli which was so delicious. My partner had the gammon which was by far the nicest gammon steak we both had ever tasted! Would definitely come back here and would recommend to anyone.
What a fun bar! We stopped by this bar during bar hopping and it was packed. Although we did not stop to eat, we did manage to get a few rounds of drinks here since this place had quite an upbeat vibe and good music.The servers were friendly and helpful. The bar also has a separate seating area which is right beside the windows making it ideal for dining as well. Will definitely recommend for a visit for pint or two.
We went to Ryans Bar to celebrate Rabbie Burns Birthday and eat the traditional Haggis, Neeps and Tatties. As we couldnt make it on a Monday night we attended on a Saturday night which is no doubt when Ryans Bar are at their busiest; and I have to say their service was brilliant. Their staff are very friendly, very accommodation and efficient. We had their plates of haggis, neeps and tatties and a wee dram of whisky which was 10pp. Great value as the portions were huge and the whisky’s were either Ardbeg or Glenmorangie. The haggis was delcious, slightly spicey; the potatoes light and fluffy and the neeps smooth and sweet. A perfect plate of Burns happiness. My dining fellow, had never eaten haggis before but managed to clear the plate and would of happily taken seconds home. We also had 2 of the 3 Burns Cocktails that were on offer – we had the Tablet White Russian and the Ginger and Rhubard Martini. Both were lovely but the white russian was my favourite only because I do have a sweet tooth. With very full bellies and I smile on our faces we left Ryans. It is a great spot for drinks, cocktails and big enough to accommodate groups of friends meeting up. Great for pre and post rugby matches at Murrayfield. tartanspoon.co.uk
My fianc and I were looking for a place to have breakfast and we spotted this place on the other side of the road. It was a chilly morning and there was an indoor seating area right in the sun so we decided to sit there and warm up a bit. The locarion was really nice and clean, service was fast. I had the vegetarian Scottish breakfast, which was delicious, absolutely perfect. I had the best scrambled eggs and veggie sausages. The coffee was really good too, not too bitter, not too sweet. Worth going to if you’re in the area 🙂
Friday evening in sunny Edinburgh and we struggle to find a place to sit outside in the sun. Finally went to Ryan’s and managed to find a table outside in the shade. We went inside to order our drinks and food. It took a while as the place was packed. I managed to order a chicken ceasar salad and lager. Meanwhile waiting for our food to arrive a very nice member of the staff offered us some complementary finger food. So we got some onion rings and steak pies. It was a very lovely gesture from the bar as we didn’t expect that! My salad came quite quick. It was a big portion with a lot of chicken but I was surprised to find bacon in it. Didn’t expect that but actually found it very tasty. I guess one can’t go wrong with bacon in the UK. The food was good but not amazing. Overall I enjoyed my visit at Ryan’s Bar and would definitely come back.
The jewel in the crown of the West End, at least location wise, is Ryan’s Bar. A grand looking bar with an extensive outside seating area.Inside, the bar is a traditional looking haunt, albeit with interesting decor on the ceiling which is the most intriguing part of the bar, as the rest is generally just darkly varnished wood. The selection of drinks is vast, with the long bar hosting a wide array of lager, ales and craft beer, as well as cider.The bar also makes cocktails, but it is not a proper cocktail bar, so the standard is generally poor. Deals often run throughout the year, with the most recent pairing up the traditional Brazilian cocktail, the Caipirinha, with a burger designed specifically for the duration of the World Cup. The food itself is standard for the most part, but specials are also offered, with Venison and other dishes offered which are a cut above standard offered on the Specials Board make the bar a lot higher in most people’s estimations.Ryan’s loses marks for the weird layout of the bar, with the serving area being generally high, making it harder to order drinks and then your pint has to be passed over the beer fonts. The lines are kept well in order and the taste of the beer is very crisp and clear.
