Not my first visit, but somehow didn’t write a review before. I don't often go out after 9pm and I was reminded why when I opened the door and it felt like 50 people were shouting at me. I made my way to the bar and managed to order a half of very good Orkney Cliff Edge IPA 4.7% (NBSS 4, £5.40/pint). This would be quite a pleasant bar if most of the people would clear off, or at least just stop shouting for a few minutes. There were three other beers but I'll bet none of them were as good as mine, and I'll shout at anyone who tries to tell me otherwise.

A real gem of a pub - lovely looking exterior - dark wood surrounding etched glass window. Just as nice inside, with a low ceiling, loads of brewery/distillery mirrors. We were lucky enough to get the boothed Window seat. If allowed to be published, you will see Mrs M checking in my perfect Stewarts 80/-
Edinburgh just keeps on throwing up (nice) surprises.

Real Ale Ray left this review about Barony
This small pub retains the majority of its fixtures and fittings from the 1899 refit by John Forrester. The only fixture that has gone was a couple of snugs at the rear. Again the ceilings and the multi coloured tiled dado along with small pictorial panels of rural Scottish scenes are outstanding.
The bar area was low slung and finished in mahogany. Four handpumps with three ales and one cider, the beer line up was Broughton Royal Mile IPA, Stewart 80 and Orkney Tidal Bay.
