Greyfriars Bobby
Popular and Traditional Pub near Greyfriars Kirk

City of Edinburgh, GB EH1 2QE
Phone: +44 131 225 8328
This traditional pub is named after the loyal Skye Terrier Bobby, who famously stood vigil at his master's grave in Greyfriars Kirkyard behind the pub, for 14 years. A visit to the pub makes a fine break after exploring the nearby post-Reformation church and its wealth of monuments. Behind the attractive wooden exterior, the pub is decked out in a mock Victorian style. There's a good selection of drinks and a decent menu, featuring some pub standard meals. If you are drawn to the wacky and irreverent, you can buy a t-shirt in Bobby's honor, depicting the brave canine with shades on and a pint in his paw.
