Tiles Bistro Bar, Edinburgh


Directions

You want to visit - You have this in

Cafe-bar in the old Prudential Insurance office. Decorative tiled walls, a high ceiling and huge lamps set the scene along with a central bar with counters on both sides. High window seats allow views over St. Andrew Square. With sport on the big screen it can be a lively, bustling venue. The guest beers are normally from smaller Scottish breweries. Cask beers are served from two modern chrome dual founts with long plastic spouts. (DEC 2024 - May have been replaced by handpumps? )

WARNING: An adjacent similar looking single fount serves keg beer.

Information for this venue is provided by the Edinburgh & South East Scotland Branch of CAMRA
