was at Deacons on Saturday 15th November, the South African rugby was on, there was one waiter and two girls, they were very busy, and exceptionally pleasant to everyone, the food was gorgeous, i would certainly go there the next time i'm in Edinburgh and would recommend to my friends when i go home.

I live in New Zealand I was in Deacon Brodies at the beginning of December with my grandchildren, we were upstairs in the restaurant, where the staff do a great job and were very friendly, especially to the boys.

Very busy, traditional pub on the Royal Mile, popular with tourists and locals.

The décor narrates the story of local villain William Brodie, the real life inspiration behind Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, who was born and hanged nearby.

The changing real ales are usually from smaller breweries, some not often found in Edinburgh.

An upstairs restaurant provides more space for diners.

Children are only allowed in the restaurant until 8pm.

Deacon Brodie's Tavern: Tourist Trap or Delightful Traditional Pub ...

Review analysis
food   drinks   ambience  

Deacon Brodie's is a traditional Scottish pub located in the heart of the Old Town of Edinburgh on the Royal Mile.

This picturesque pub is named after one of Edinburgh's most famous sons – William Brodie – who was the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's classic novel The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

William Brodie was, at first glance, a fine and upstanding member of Edinburgh society.

Another popular myth states that Deacon Brodie actually built the Tolbooth gallows (the first of its kind in Edinburgh) only to become their first victim!

Whatever the facts of the case, the contrast between Brodie's respectable facade and his depraved secret life inspired Robert Louis Stevenson to create one of the more enduring and fascinating literary characters.
