Royal Mile Tavern

According to the Spinach guide, the venue offers vegan options including vegan haggis topped nachos and falafel patties for burgers, though the bun contains egg and milk and must be ordered without. Staff are described as having a basic understanding of vegan needs, with some users reporting that staff are not always sure about ingredients. The venue's own website does not mention vegan options.
