About this space

The Bar in Duck & Waffle is centred around a 360-degree walk-around bar. Cocktails are served alongside a selection of other drinks, drawing on Duck & Waffle's approach.

Available for exclusive hire, The Bar provides a setting for drinks receptions, networking events, private celebrations, and corporate gatherings. Signature cocktails include the Duck & Stormy, Cranachan, and Strawberry Sling.

Just off the bar, The Terrace works during warmer months as an extension of the space — an outdoor setting for al fresco drinks, dining, and gatherings overlooking the city. Together, The Bar and The Terrace create a flexible event space in central Edinburgh.
