My partner and I went here for Espresso Martini's and this bar specializes in them...and you can tell. The different flavours were exciting to choose from and they tasted incredible. The best espresso martinis we have ever had. The music and atmosphere of the bar was great, we didn't want to leave. The staff were super friendly and helpful and clearly passionate about their work, especially Dan. The flavours change seasonally but our favourites were the Mint Choc Chip espresso martini and the Raspberry Ripple. Next time we are in Edinburgh we will be back.

Ben made one of the best drinks I have even had. I have had many penicillin but with smokey twist. He changed my life. Thank you.

Ben and Pierre were extremely accommodating. We had 3 nights in Edinburgh and spent 2 of those at the raging bull. Will definitely be coming back!

We had our first night here and then booked a cocktail making experience for the next day! The cocktail making was spot on, Ben and Pierre were extremely personable. We will be back here every time we come to Edinburgh! Cocktails were unreal, the custom was second to none and the overall experience was exactly what we needed

We came in as two people and were quickly greeted and welcomed. My family ended up coming to meet us so 2 turned to 8 quickly and the staff handled it with such grace. The cocktails were some of the best I’ve ever had and it is was such a vibe inside. This atmosphere isn’t great for large parties but we never felt like we were an inconvenience or out of place.
