Cask & Barrel Broughton Street is a traditional Edinburgh pub at 115 Broughton Street. The premises began as a bank before passing through several bar identities and becoming the Cask & Barrel in the early 1990s. Its horseshoe bar, timber floor and brewery mirrors give the spacious room the feel of a longstanding city alehouse.
Homemade lunches are served from noon to 2pm from Monday to Saturday. Soup of the day, a changing hot special, baked potatoes, panini, chilli, pies, nachos and chicken Caesar salad form a concise but substantial menu. The choice is designed for an unfussy midday meal rather than an elaborate evening restaurant service.
Vegetarian fillings, vegetable chilli and a mozzarella, tomato and pesto panini provide meat free options. Daily changes mean guests should ask staff about the current special and discuss any allergens before ordering. Seating is first come, first served, matching the direct and informal character of the pub.
Cask ale is the defining drink, with changing independent beers joining familiar regular pours. Whisky, other spirits, bottled beer, cider and alcohol free choices broaden the selection, while live sport is shown across the venue. Cask & Barrel Broughton Street combines a focused homemade lunch with one of Edinburgh’s more committed traditional beer pub experiences.
