The Cumberland is a hidden gem! Inside is a lovely bar made up of several rooms; from small little nooks to a large backroom with an open fire for those frequent cold Edinburgh days. On a sunny day though, their garden, which is across two levels shaded by a mature willow tree, it is an oasis in the city. The bar has a good selection of beer, both cask and keg. Food is served all day and they have a well loved Sunday lunch offering too
