Festive Buffet Menu
1 Dec to 23 Dec 2026
The Beehive is a historic pub on Edinburgh's iconic Grassmarket, nestled beneath the towering walls of Edinburgh Castle. Dating back to the mid-19th century, this former premium hotel and restaurant has long been regarded as one of the Old Town's most distinguished pubs, renowned for its traditional pub food and expertly kept cask ales and craft beers. A favourite among travellers, workers and the local community, The Beehive has seen more than its fair share of famous guests over the years, including Charles III and perhaps even Rabbie Burns during its days as a humble coaching inn. Today, it remains a beloved landmark in the heart of the city, with free Wi-Fi, disabled facilities, and a dog-friendly welcome. Step inside for a classic plate of Fish & Chips, one of our much-loved burgers, or simply a few perfectly poured pints enjoyed beneath Castle Rock in our beer garden. With generous space to host group gatherings and private functions, The Beehive is also a welcoming spot to catch live sport, making it just as good for matchdays as it is for laid-back afternoons. We can't wait to welcome you to The Beehive.
