I already reviewed this place on trip advisor but I had to compliment them over here also. Fantastic pub will definitely be back very soon! The lasagne is amazing

We ate at Shakespeare on a Monday afternoon while we were on vacation in Scotland. Our waitress was Becky. And Becky was great. She helped us to decide what we wanted to eat from their menu. And the help she gave us was invaluable. Very friendly. Couldn't say more about how much we enjoyed our food and meeting Becky. We are from Missouri.

Despite being a little understaffed, staff were lovely and extremely high spirited and helpful. There was a delay in orders towards the end of the night but staff had explained this to everyone before it happened.Great staff!

Haven't been in in maybe 15 years, until going in January this year. Whilst it never used to be what you'd call classy, it's definitely lost every last bit of it's character. Bland, boring - could be anywhere at all.

Nice location, very convinient from Usher Hall and the Grand Sheraton Hotel. Quick service with a large enough area to find a quiet spot. Decent menu selection w/quality pub food. Staff was very helpful and friendly, particularly want to acknowledge Eilish (sp?) as the floor manager.

Most enjoyable Mulled Wine. I had the Half roast Chicken and rosemary fries, very tasty.

Shakespeare's has a fine selection of beers, ciders and spirits, and for its location being so close to Princes St it is surprisingly cheap at pints between £4-4.80.The service can be slow though, it feels like the staff seem to forget to check for table service made on the app, with my visit on Saturday taking over 40 minutes after ordering drinks. It wasn't nearly as busy as they made out for that mistake hence the lower rating.If you're going to the Usher Hall and it's for preconcert drinks it's fine. But you're better going elsewhere for post drinks.

Super cozy restaurant with really friendly staff. My fish was DELICIOUS perfectly soft and tasty. I loved it, definitely coming back here next time Im in Edinburgh!

Great service in the middle of the city!!This pub has wonderful food, especially the wings!! They were kind enough to let us hang out for a few hours with our luggage as we waited for our train. Good selections of beer and comfortable atmosphere. Definitely would recommend!
