Ryrie’s Bar

Located near to Haymarket station is Ryries. It is a typical pub serving various beers and ales including many different whisky. Definitely not the best pub by any means but for a quick drink after a long train journey it has its purpose.

The bar that survived the tramworks at Haymarket station!
Yes, it’s a good old fashioned real ale pub, but it also feels modern. It’s perfectly located within walking distance from the station, or staggering distance to the station, depending on which way you look at it.
You walk in, and it’s bright and clean, yet still kind of snug enough to feel old school. Walk up to the bar and you’re hit with a flood of options on tap. There’s well over 10 lagers and beers on draft, and as far as I could see as I observed (for research purposes, obviously) you get the correct branded glass for whatever drink you order, which makes me geek out a little.
I ordered a pint of Deuchars, which is my personal favourite tipple, and it was cold, fresh and went down a treat having just came off a train. Yes, with the trains being close by, you can top up yourself if you’re in danger of dehydrating and/​or sobering up…
Because of it’s location, I sometimes overlook Ryrie’s on my travels, which is a shame, I really should make more visits here… and so should you!

What an awful awful place. I like tradition pubs and think this could be a good place, I think this place is spoiled by not only poor management but the war the poor management seem to put their «so called staff» before their customers. This is avert average place which could be run better — especially when the Platform 5 or Haymarket are cheaper and better– poor, poor pub– avoid
