About this space

Private Bar is a Bar in Everyman Edinburgh and a lounge-style space anchored by a polished service counter.

Design: The interior uses warm timber panelling and a low ceiling over herringbone parquet and patterned rugs. The room pairs velvet-upholstered sofas and low tables with exposed brickwork and soft pendant lighting to create a low-slung lounge layout.

Features: The space includes a staffed bar counter, public Wi‑Fi, natural daylight, a step-free guest entrance and accessible toilets. The layout is adaptable, combining lounge seating and small tables that can be rearranged for seated service or a standing reception.

Ideal for: Small to medium groups seeking a relaxed, conversational, seated social gathering around sofas and low tables.

What guests say: Service in the space is often accommodating and friendly, though drink and food service can be slower during busy periods.

Seamus was amazing the whole night and really kept everything running smoothly. They kept us informed on the bar tab, helped us with the birthday cake, and made many excellent cocktails as well as being chatty and cheerful all night. A big thank you to them! In terms of the venue itself, it was easy to hang a few decorations. The space suited our purposes really well. The food was nice, the drinks were excellent.

The vegan food wasn’t obviously labelled in all cases, which I had specifically asked for beforehand. There was a selection on the bar that was all vegan which was helpful, but the other things were only differentiated as being vegan by having a piece of brown paper under them, and I wasn’t told this so had to ask and let then people know, by which point a lot of the vegan stuff had been eaten by other people so that wasn’t so good for those with dietary requirements. One of the guests ordered a meal because they couldn’t find anything suitable.
