"Amber Restaurant and Whisky Bar sits below the Scotch Whisky Experience at the top of the famous Royal Mile, making it the perfect place to stop for coffee, cake, a bite to eat, or of course a dram or two of whisky as you explore the city of Edinburgh. Our menu evolves with the seasons, using only the finest authentic Scottish produce, and our unique-recipe haggis is often referred to as the best in Edinburgh. You'll find many other traditional Scottish delicacies with a contemporary twist across our lunch and dinner menus, including smoked salmon, Cullen Skink and Cranachan. Our whisky bar is one of the best-stocked in Edinburgh with a specially-trained team on hand to help you choose. Also available for events, group dining and walk-ins."

We had a three course meal here with whisky pairing at each course. The food was stunning and raised to a different level with the paired whisky. My partner said the venison was one of the best things she had ever eaten. The staff were all friendly and knowledgeable. We will definitely come back next time we are in Edinburgh
Went for the Burns night Mary kings close then meal. Food was great except the turnip/swede fondant was pretty raw and the whiskey sauce and dessert could do with a touch more whiskey so there's a taste of it but other than that food good. Service started fantastic however the busier it got the slower drinks service and clearing tables became. However yes we would go again it was great value and the drinks prices I though we're good value
It was the best lunch we had in Scotland. The salmon came in large quantities and was delicious. We ordered the venison, which is only made for dinner, but we were still very well served. The other dish was the traditional haggis, which was very tasty.
A nice dinning experience especially if youbare wanting to try different whiskey. The staff was friendly and the food was very flavorful. The only unfortunate part is that they close so early. Our reservation were at 630pm and the restaurant was very quite. They turned several people away while we were there because they close at 730p. Would be great if they considered extending their hours.
Skipped the tour and came right here! An excellent selection of whisky and amazing food! I didn't think vegan haggis could be a thing but it most certainly was. The staff were happy to recommend pairing whiskys and more, would love to return! Found my new favourite whisky, tootoo. Great service! Vegetarian options: Vegetarian haggis was excellent! The tapas platter had some veg options too, an
A rotating menu of quality dishes, everything we ordered was amazing and Ben was kind enough to take the time to help us pick some drams of whiskey to suit our tastes. The bacon wrapped, haggis stuffed chicken I had was amazing and my wife got the sticky toffee pudding which is as good a pudding as Gordon Ramsay makes it out to be!Food: 5/5
Our group had a wonderful tasting menu here. Great location near the castle. They gave a presentation on a few whiskeys. Really well done. The food was amazing. Everything was delicious. Just a great opening evening in Edinburgh. Great staff and service.
Ideal luncheon venue after a tour of the castle or a walk up the Royal Mile. Haggis wrapped in chicken for lunch earlier this week and haggis today. Both fabulous. Interesting wine list, a sincere day 1 and a pinot grigio today. Service was excellent although a tad slow to start. Huge selection of whiskies available!
Food was really great, everything well served and tomato soap was amazing. Unfortunately some things were annoying like wait 20min for each drink from the bar, but this doesn’t affect the overall experience. Staffs were really nice and friendly.
Really good Scottish restaurant! Went for dinner and didn’t think much of it, but ended up having a full 3-course meal with a drink. Absolutely amazing food, very friendly staff and very nice atmosphere. If you’re a whiskey-lover, that’s the place for you. Would certainly recommend and come back again when in Edinburgh.
