Quinno _ left this review about The Windsor

Fair interior separated-out by multiple arches and pillars but in no way as enticing as many others in town, though the curved Art Deco bar back is of interest, as is the lovely tiled floor. There's also some intricate dado but it's all painted over rather than picked out with colour. Three cask; Loch Leven, Duddas Tun and Northern Alchemy. A half of the latter's Widening of the Imagination was in decent shape (NBSS 3) but was a mediocre brew. Not a bad place and the barmaid acknowledged the stupidity of Scotland's COVID pub 'rules' (which most places outside of the immediate centre happily disregarded presumably due to their sheer contradictory madness). Very quiet, in contrast to the other pubs that evening that were all doing a fairly healthy trade.

Old style interior that has been opened up slightly. 4 real ales served.

Despite the misleading name, this is actually a pub. It does sell food, although none of the customers were dining on the Friday evening I visited and it seems to be mainly drink orientated. The pub sign outside just says "The Windsor," so it may be that it was originally just called that. The outdoor seating isn't ideal given that it is on a very busy main street, but it's a pleasant and fairly typical Edinburgh pub.
