The Mitre is renowned for its long history on the Royal Mile, where it is popular with both tourists and regulars. It is known for its tall and grand featured ceiling and candle-lit, cosy atmosphere.

On the weekends, it’s best known for its live music events on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Guests can tuck into traditional dishes such as Haggis, Neeps & Tatties, Balmoral Chicken, and a range of delicious pies.

Speaking about the refurbishment, General Manager Dan McNicholas at The Mitre said: “We are excited to reopen The Mitre and welcome back our guests.

“As such an iconic and historic pub on the Royal Mile, it was important to us that we retained all of the old-style features that our pub was known for by regulars and tourists alike. Everyone in Edinburgh knows of The Mitre, and we can’t wait to show it off to you.”
