user reviews of the Star Bar, Edinburgh

please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.

Very close to the city but very out the way - if that makes sense. You need to know its here, otherwise you wouldn't find it by accident.

Quirky interior - with split level seating, with the bar down low. Table football, nick nacks and jukebox. Friendly locals. Not every pub you enter and are immediately asked if you like "Roller Skating".

Friendly ,Pleasant little new town bar tucked away in side lane .

Decent draught beer , great cheap jukebox and table football. And a nice beer garden . can get very busy and as its a small shop that can be a bit uncomfortable as their isnt a huge amount of seating .

Like it though .

Seems to have changed little since my student days. A nice little bar, nicely tucked away. I enjoyed revisiting it.

Nice little bar this. The interior is a shrine to all the good things in music with posters, sleeves, magazines, etc., plus an imaginative jukebox. Although I didn't stay as long as I would have liked all the indications were that later on in the evenings this becomes an interesting and lively boozer, much loved by it's regulars. Nice beers, attentive service, the most memorable bar I'd visited whilst in the Stockbridge area.

Still my real home, despite being 350 miles away.

I genuinely love this bar. There is nothing that stick out that makes it so great, it is an amalgamation of wonders. Unfortunatley I only found it aout 9 months before I left Edinburgh but I make sure I go there whenever I am visiting my mates. Has all the board games you used to play as a kid (jenga, monopoly etc), tattered books, table football, a jukebox that plays for 20p a song - that alone should sell it! good selection of beers, not so good for wine but no complaints. Great for a quiet/boozy night which more often than not turns into a brilliant night.
