Salt Horse

We Don't Sell
Butterbeer.

We get asked all the time — we're right on the Royal Mile. Totally fair.

But we do have 14 taps, over 200 bottles, and a Sorting Hat Tap that'll find your perfect pint.

Five quick questions. One perfect beer style. No wands required.

Question I of V
You walk into Salt Horse. Where are you heading?
Question II of V
You're ordering food. What is it?
Question III of V
It's raining in Edinburgh. Obviously. What are you doing?
Question IV of V
Pick the sauce.
Question V of V
It's your last night in Edinburgh. How are you spending it?

The Sorting Tap is Deciding...
The Sorting Tap Has Spoken
Still no butterbeer — but honestly, you won't miss it.
