Afternoon Tea Experience
Indulge yourself or treat a loved one to an afternoon tea package, which includes admission to the castle.
Castle admission and afternoon tea must be pre-booked during the purchase process.
Food and Drink
Sample some of the best produce Scotland has to offer in a beautiful setting, with views overlooking the historical city of Edinburgh. Enjoy a delicious afternoon tea in The Tea Rooms, located in the heart of the castle in Crown Square.
Full of sweet and savoury delights created with some of the finest Scottish ingredients, including a Blacketyside raspberry, Fairtrade dark chocolate macaron, and an Ayrshire ham and Glenrath free-range egg finger sandwich with Arran mustard, our afternoon tea is a castle must-see!
We also have an extensive bar menu, including our whisky flight which features a sample of Scottish single malt whiskies from the Highlands to the Lowlands, as well as our new range of Castle Cocktails including our Irn-Bru Daquiri and our Rob Roy made with our Edinburgh Castle 10year old single malt whisky.
Freshly-baked cakes and scones, as well our barista-made carbon neutral coffee, are also available if you fancy something lighter.
