Malone's Irish Bar in Edinburgh

6 nations rugby..great atmosphere and good craic.... mixed crowd, young, old, Irish , English ,Scottish and French!!

Great atmosphere, good Guinness, staff are great craic. Nice screens for sport. Live music and opens late.

It is a great pub....grear atmosphere..however was absolutely gobsmacked when the staff told me that football was being showed in the spacious upstairs and the Rugby 6 nations was bening shown downstairs on the smaller screens.......Ridiculous...considering this was the 6 nations international i simply could not believe it.

Very chatty customers , feels welcoming and lively , nice atmosphere and fantastic "straight to the glass " tennents, never tasted anything like it .

Great time upstairs. Busy pub but served quickly. Compliments to the staff. Area booked for a small group. Great atmosphere.

We came from Aberdeen for the weekend. Had an absolute ball. Band last night were amazing. No drama, folk really friendly. Defo be back

Great food. Great atmosphere. Good value for money

The food is banging. The portions are huge and well worth the money. I would tell anyone to visit this pub because it's a good place to chill out/vibe to eat, watch sports etc

Music is very noisy. Not somewhere for a quiet drink as there are football games/ sports played on TV here. There is a lot of seating but it's still quite busy, especially at peek drinking times. There is outdoor seating for smoker's, with a canopy so you don't get soaked which I thought was great.I wouldn't call this place expensive in regards to the price of alcohol in the capital city. I think all bars/ clubs in Edinburgh are overpriced.The outdoor seating is not solely for smokers, ur just so happened to be reading so it was only smokers outside at that present time. Many other times, on a sunny day it looks really pleasant to sit outside and enjoy a beverage alcoholic or not. You cam just order a coffee here, however, I wouldn't recommend if that's what you'd liked to do then here's probably not the best place to but you can.I think the crowd Malones attracts now is different under the previous management (Diane's pool hall). As I am no pool fan I didn't frequent this venue previously. I would return here but it would probably be better in a group of friends, rather than just two people. My expectations were it would be more Male orientated than it was. It was a great mix of people; males, females, under 25s, over 50s, tourists also.The noise level is the only reason I would be inclined not to come here in the evening, or when there's sports on. It's lovely when the sun is out and sitting outside with a refreshing drink.I'm sure there's an upper level, although I've never ventured that far, probably should. Although someone told me they serve food upstairs? I can't be certain, however, I certainly haven't saw food downstairs. Also I've not used their toilet facilities yest shl can't comment on that.Overall it was pleasant, friendly staff, fairly quick service considering how busy it was, not over priced, quirky interior, outdoor seating is always a bonus for me. I couldn't spend a whole evening here, after 2 or 3 drinks the noise is too much. Great to check it out now it's under new management.

Came to Edinburgh for my Birthday and spotted this pub just opposite the hotel I was staying at.Its fair to say that it was one of the best nights I have ever had. Band called The Guiness Brothers were playing and it was a great atmosphere, certainly come back on next visit!
