Atmosphere and service was spectacular, especially from the incredibly courteous and engaging Ben C, who made sure I was well taken care of with regards to drinks and conversation. Ben C deserves all the raises and all the praise in the world, and I will definitely be back because of him.

The experience was ruined by a terrible service, the place was half empty and yet 20 min and no one bothered even though I've asked twice at the bar and asked if I can order right then, but was told someone will come over... extremely disappointing first experience. I would have walked out if it wasn't for other people joining at this place.

I only stopped for a quick drink on Sunday, wish I had longer as it seems a great place. Was heading back south in morning so couldn't have many 🤣. Will visit for night when I'm back

I hate to leave negative reviews because I’m incredibly understanding but I could not help it with this establishment. I also want to mention that the staff was very apologetic after our experience.
When we arrived, we waited roughly 20 minutes for a waiter to come to the table so we placed our order right away. We waited over 40 minutes with no drink refills and no updates. Finally, someone from the waitstaff came over and apologized for taking so long with our food and that they would not charge us due to the large wait. The food was not very good and my husband found two long hairs in his fries, so we were a bit grossed out. We tried to flag someone down to close out but waited another 15-20 minutes until we got up to go to the bar to close out our bill.
If you’re going for drinks, not bad but I would not recommend any food based on this experience.

Very nice place with great music, lovely service, great beers and absolutely awesome food. 🫡 that beef burger is food porn, one of the best I ever had

A great bar with friendly staff. Standard Edinburgh for prices for the city centre. Good atmosphere every time I have visited.
Edit:
3 years later, still great staff, still awesome, still a great place to grab a drink.
Only thing I would love is for them to go back to the old haggis fritters.

First time visiting Scotland from the states and ended up finding the Newsroom. Absolutely loved the atmosphere of the bar. Sean was our bartender and gave amazing recommendations on things to do and see while in Edinburgh. Would definitely recommend making a stop at the Newsroom and getting a cocktail from Sean

Loved the chilli beef nachos on our first visit so had to go back again, to try the haggis nachos (which were even better!) Food took a little longer on second visit (was busy!), but offered us a free drink before we said a word. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. We will be back!
