This is a good pub & go from time to time as it does serve Murphys on draft. Sadly pic should speak for itself as they need some in house training on serving a pint of beer think we had 6 pints each and none was pored right. Staff was lovely & we did tip but a full pint would be fantastic 😀

Lovely find. The food is great I tried the dumplings on a 3 fo £18 offer absolutely lovely I definitely recommend visit the atmosphere is chilled and relaxed.

Atmosphere is quite nice, cosy bar and seating area. Drinks are overpriced and not very well done. After half of the drinks menu wasn't available, we found a few drinks to order. The experience was rather unsatisfactory we've got a warmish IPA and a watery lemon water which was sold as Hot Toddy. The most expensive lemon water I've ever had. 😅 I did go back to the bar, explained that the hot toddy tastes rather incomplete and that the whisky seemed to be missing. I was sent away, after I was told that the drink was made without any errors and missing ingredients. Fun fact, the girl told me a list of ingredients that weren't even on the menu but was not interested on discussing the issue any further. So we finished our funky drinks and continued our journey. Quite disappointing experience but lucky there are many more really, really cool places in the area! Would not come back, would not recommend to anyone. Sorry.

Picture this: you walk on your way from Leith to Edinburgh, gasping, frothing at the mouth for the last taste of proper fish and chips before you hit the big smoke. With these fish and chips, paired with the Finnish classic of Hartwall's Long Drink, you just know you're in for something truly special. Making itself known at first is the chips, best eaten hot, retaining their fluffy inside and crispy outside prefect for dipping or honestly, just a delight by themselves. And Im not just saying this, many places will claim to have these attrobutes but none can claim to do them justice - many such cases! The peas serve as a perfect complement to the big two "fish" and "chips", mint is strewn between them with salt making itself known throughout this chorus of the culinary high life. Last of all, the fish, the mainstay, the headline act. Coming in loud and proud with a bold beer batter that warns you that this will live in your tastebuds for life. But then comes the fish itself, such beauty in vulnerability and power in freshness - thats what its for, to comfort you. Rest assured I will be back, proclaiming the good news of the fish, chips and lonkero from the hills. Smoking area at the front on sunny days and quick links to the tram and bus stops.

Absolutely amazing. I always have to stop by here when in Edinburgh. The Swedish meatballs are Absolutely incredible! The staff are always so friendly and welcoming. And very cosy seating. Always enjoy my visit here :)

I absolutely love the staff at JP’s. They are friendly, attentive and professional. I had the fish and chips this time and I did not enjoy the chips – I wonder if they are oven chips. In hindsight, I should’ve had the meatballs which are amazing.

One of the best pubs in Edinburgh! Excellent service with a lovely and delicious food menu. You definitely should give this place a go

I booked a pre Christmas lunch for myself and my husband. Unfortunately my husband had come down with a nasty migraine the day before so I had to go on my own. The staff were absolutely lovely and looked after me like family. The food was wonderful and I had a lovely time. Thanks so much.
