This review is taken from the current (2012) edition.
Straddling a corner a few metres from Princes Street’s West End, Ryan’s Bar enjoys a prime location. So, it’s little wonder that it attracts a clutch of regulars and is also a haven for tourists. Pictures of old Edinburgh hang on the walls of the upstairs bar, which boasts an intricately decorated ceiling. There's now a separate restaurant in the basement area majoring in surf and turf (see review in Scottish section), though bar food is served in the main bar, while coffee and snacks are a popular option for the outdoor tables. Look out for local ales from breweries such as Harviestoun, while there's live music in the bar on Thursday evenings.
- High point: A bar with prominence and character
- Low point: Rarely a haven of peace and quiet
