About this restaurant

Great for craft beers
Good for groups
Neighborhood gem

Right on the Shore in Leith, Moonwake Beer Co. is an independent microbrewery with a relaxed, inclusive vibe. Located near the Royal Yacht Britannia, our space features a mezzanine taproom overlooking the brew kit alongside our outdoor beer garden. On the taps you’ll find our award-winning core range alongside seasonal specials—we genuinely believe there's a beer style here for everyone. We also pour a curated selection of spirits, wine, and non-alcoholic options.

For food, we keep the bar well-stocked with quality snacks, plus you can order fresh pizza straight to your table from our neighbours at Pizza Geeks.

There is always something happening, from official brewery tours and tastings to major sporting events and our monthly pub quiz on the first Thursday of every month.

Our taproom and beer garden are dog-friendly and fully wheelchair accessible. Families are welcome until 6pm. Please note we are a card-only venue and operate a strict 'No Nuts' policy across all areas.

Always a delight to go to Moonwake, especially for the monthly Pub Quiz! The staff are always friendly and attentive, and are very knowledgable and accommodating when it comes to helping you decide which of their various beers would best suit you. The quiz itself is also a consistent treat, with an engaging host who, despite some occasional technical issues, handles the entire affair with an effortless humour. If nothing else, come for the quiz and stay for the brews!
