Cannonball Restaurant & Bar Venue

Cannonball House is located at the top of The Royal Mile with breath-taking views to our next door neighbour Edinburgh Castle.

An award-winning venue serving locally sourced ingredients from Scottish artisan suppliers, available for exclusive use 7 days a week.

We love Cannonball House with all its history and all the character you would expect from an Edinburgh Old Town building that dates back to the 17thC.  Cannonball House captures all the mystery and history of the best dining on the Royal Mile.  You’re dining in the shadows of the first Duke Gordon, the first key keeper to Edinburgh Castle who originally owned Cannonball House.

Great food and a warm welcome are what our reputation is based on.  

We’re here to ensure your guests have the very best experience and enjoy the best of Scotland’s Larder.

We pride ourselves on our relationship with our suppliers.  Buying direct from as many of Scotland’s small producers as we can allows us to showcase Scotland at its best throughout the seasons.

Our menus change with the seasons and can be created especially for you and your guests. Whether it’s Glamis Asparagus that we normally get in May or foraged fresh Chanterelle that we get in September or glorious Grouse in August our suppliers are there to source the best freshest produce so we can prepare for you and your guests.
