Derby in Edinburgh

[The Pointer]

My daughter will be in Edinburgh at the weekend and wants to know where in the city centre will be OK for watching the game. She'll be heading back to Glasgow afterwards, hence her desire for a central location.

Any suggestions as to a relatively Jambo free pub as I haven't a clue these days?

Robbie's on Leith Walk for us.. 🇳🇬💚🇳🇬💚🇳🇬

Has the Phoenix closed down yet?

Does the Greenmantle show derbies?

Phoenix is still open as far I'm aware. Relatively new owners have just come in.

Cask and Barrell on Broughton Street is always a safe bet for football , about 5 or 6 TV's so you get a good view from anywhere in the pub. It will be mixed but with a majority of Hibbies.

Good shout and the one I'd recommend too for the same reasons. I often end up there just because of the choice and quality of the beer

If your daughter is travelling back to Glasgow by train,Leith Walk pubs would be the best bet.
City centre pubs will no doubt be mixed.
If she is getting the bus,possibly somewhere on the bus route/Roseburn/Murrayfield area pubs.
That is me assuming that the Roseburn and Murrayfield bar will be hosting mostly ticketless Hibernians.

I will be tuning in at a bowling club in Corstorphine.
It will be mixed,but mostly non aggressive pensioners !!

The Roseburn will empty before the game , wont be many Hibs fans in there to watch it.

Would they have the sound on for a derby? Haven't whenever I've been for games including the CL final.

It closed for a week or 2 but reopened under new owners pretty quickly.

Cask & Barrell will have the sound on , they are always mobbed when the football is on , its one of the most popular pubs in that part of the city to watch games.

The Murrayfield Bar has had a name change and gone a bit hipster. It didn't appear to be welcoming football last game although I'm sure it will throw its doors open to the 6Nations fun boys over the next month or so.

Will be, if not just ask.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, looks like she's going to head for the Cask and Barrel to meet up with her big bro.

Jinglin Geordie on Fleshmarket, raise a glass to George while you are in there.

Guy that runs the Greenmantle just got Sky-Sports taken out - not the best of ideas but he's not over-fond of listening to his customers !!

Used to go to Jinglins back in the 70s. Didn't it have tiny wee bogs?

That's where I'd be. Was there for the last one on the 27th, a good atmosphere, mixed fans and although it was rammed, bar service was reasonably quick.
