Pub Home & What's On
The Hunters Tryst Edinburgh
The Hunters Tryst Ember Inn is right up there as the best real ale pub, bar and restaurant in Edinburgh. And none more so than on darker, chillier nights when we welcome in the grown up crowd that really enjoys drinking and eating out in Midlothian, around Edinburgh, and Juniper Green, Kaimes or Fairmilehead!
We're constantly refreshing our choice of quality cask ales and sourcing great quality, affordable wines. And all our drinks are designed to perfectly complement a pub food menu heaving with seasonally inspired favourites that will warm your cockles on the coldest of nights.
Isn't it great to unwind with a quick drink or a special meal in a pub that's about rattling good conversation not thumping music? And we're so dedicated to cask ale you can try before you buy, or Sip Before You Sup, and even ask to have your favourite beer put on!
