Malt Shovel Inn
Malts and cask ale on Cockburn Street
In brief
A traditional pub on Cockburn Street, the lane dropping from the Royal Mile to Waverley, holding its ground among the souvenir shops. Around fifty single malts and Scottish cask ales give it the feel of a local rather than a tourist bar. The kitchen turns out burgers, pies and fish and chips.
