Welcome to the Tea Rooms at Edinburgh Castle where you can indulge yourself or treat a loved one to an afternoon tea experience.
Our Tea Room is located in the heart of the castle, Crown Square. The walls have been painted a rich Dutch blue, embellished with touches of copper/brass, vintage mirrors and botanical foliage to keep things feeling fresh, modern but still with a rugged Scottish ambience. The perfect setting to relax and enjoy afternoon tea.
