A little bit about us…

Each pub has its own story, character, and loyal locals, but they all share the same welcoming spirit. Whether it’s top-notch sports screenings, quiz nights, or DJs keeping the party going, there’s always something happening. At most of our pubs, you’ll find proper pub grub – with big, juicy burgers and classic fish and chips being firm favourites. And when it comes to pouring a cracking pint, we’ve got it nailed. We serve up real value, a great atmosphere, and a pub experience that’s worth every penny. The Southsider is a friendly little quaint pub in the heart of Edinburgh's student district. This is a busy student venue that really comes to life at night or watch live sport. It boasts an excellent selection of beers and spirits, along with a fantastic food menu.
