Tigerlily Edinburgh on George Street Edinburgh with outdoor seating

Tigerlily Edinburgh

Tigerlily Edinburgh is a stylish 4-star boutique hotel, restaurant, and bar on George Street in Edinburgh’s New Town. It’s known for its striking interiors, creative cocktails, and lively social atmosphere right in the heart of the city.

Tigerlily combines boutique accommodation with dining and drinking in one of Edinburgh’s most iconic locations. The venue features bold design, Pan-Asian-influenced food, and an extensive cocktail list that draws both locals and visitors.

Tigerlily has been a George Street landmark for years. The venue mixes contemporary luxury with a social vibe that works for everything from morning coffee to late-night drinks. It has 33 stylish bedrooms upstairs, while the ground floor handles dining, drinking and the new summer Casamigos terrace out front.

The food leans on Scottish produce with Pan-Asian influences. You’ll find sharing plates, refined mains, and a good mix of lighter and heartier options.

All-Day Set Menu A strong draw is the All-Day Set Menu (available 12pm–10pm, Sunday to Friday).

  • 2 courses: £19.50
  • 3 courses: £23.50

Recent examples include:

Starters — Beer-battered bubble prawns, chicken liver parfait, Tom Kha mushroom broth (vg), Cullen Skink tartlet. Mains — Pork tonkatsu, honey & soy grilled chicken salad, butternut massaman curry (vg), sea bass fillet, chargrilled sirloin steak (+£5).
Desserts — Sticky toffee pudding, rhubarb & ginger crème brûlée, dark chocolate & orange torte (vg).

It’s good value for George Street and gives a proper Tigerlily experience without the à la carte prices.

Drinks & Other Options The bar offers excellent cocktails (including seasonal spritzes) and has a solid wine list. There’s also breakfast, boozy brunch at weekends, afternoon tea, and full day/evening menus.

What’s New at Tigerlily Edinburgh

This summer, the front terrace is the standout addition — open daily until 30th August with dedicated Casamigos cocktails.

Whether you’re after a morning coffee, a long lunch, evening drinks, or a stay in one of the 33 well-appointed rooms, Tigerlily delivers a high-end yet relaxed experience on one of Edinburgh’s busiest streets.

Our Take

Tigerlily delivers on the George Street promise — great location, good-looking spaces, and food that’s better than many central spots at these prices. The set menu makes it especially useful for lunch or relaxed dinners.
