Frommer's Review

Deacon Brodie's Tavern is primarily populated by tourists wandering the Royal Mile and by members of the legal fraternity who come over from the nearby courts. Its name, of course, perpetuates the memory of William Brodie, good citizen by day and nasty robber by night: A real-life character of the 18th century, he may have inspired Robert Louis Stevenson's fictional Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Certainly this traditionally styled pub would like you to think so. Open Sunday through Thursday from 10am to midnight and Friday and Saturday from 10am to 1am. Food is served in the bar from 10am to 10pm; in the restaurant upstairs, from noon to 10pm.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
