As you can see from the picture, Drop Kick Murphys was formerly known as Bertie's. For many years this was a late night drinking establishment in the Old Town. Now, as Drop Kick Murphys, this is the latest addition to Edinburghs Irish themed music bars. The bar is open from 8pm until 3am.

| | Paddy | Awful | | I visited dropkicks last week for the first time, and i will never ever be back. How this can be one of the best bars in Edinburgh is beyond me, the place was disgusting! I was met in the door by two rude security guards, then was hit by the overpowering smell of hundreds of sweaty drunks - not the most appealing thing in the world let me assure you. After ten minutes of trying to work my way through a huge scrum of shouting, jumping and in one case - fighting customers, I only just saw the bar and was met by the sight of two stressed barstaff, giving horrific service, some of the worst pints ive ever seen! So i left, and will never go back! People listen! There are much better places to go than this dive! | | Sunday, February 07, 2010 | Rating: No rosettes |

| | karchino | dropkick murphys´fans,do not go here! | | Why call a pub Dropkick Murphys if you do not play their music or know who they are?? Really a deception.... | | Sunday, October 01, 2006 | Rating: No rosettes |

| | Not happy | bloody awful.... | | apparently its been bought by a Cork man which would explain why this place is so CRAP! Over-price, over-crowded, the staff are miserable and the doormen are bullys. Dont bother with this place. You may aswell be in Reardens! | | Thursday, June 15, 2006 | Rating: No rosettes |

| | Ed Austin | OK | | But I miss the Berties days. Back in '93 Berties was alive and kicking, and when I went back to work in Edinburgh in 2000 it was still there. I had hoped it would have become an edinburgh landmark. Oh well :( | | Thursday, April 27, 2006 | Rating:  rosettes |

| | B R | Canny beat it! | | Love this place! Handy when grassmarket andcowgate pubs shut at 12 or 1. dangerous stairs when under the influence to go to toilet though! Get to talk to loads of gret Irish people all there for a good time | | Thursday, March 09, 2006 | Rating:     rosettes |
| | Brian | A bit too irish | | Big massive pub well laid out but Irish Pubs arent like it. In saying that good craic for Gaelic Gaes loved the atmosphere last JULY and August | | Wednesday, March 01, 2006 | Rating:   rosettes |

| | Micky Creano | Awesome bar | | this is a great bar for when most bars close at 1am. Quite expensive but not so bad. 3 for 2 deals are good. Its never really that packed, and its a great place to hang out when you want to keep drinking till 3 and you dont want to bother going to espionage or stereo | | Friday, December 16, 2005 | Rating:     rosettes |
| | disgusted punter | Worst pub in edinburgh...AVOID IT | | Most ignorant, undignified door and bar staff ever, thay have no respect for any of their customers, i have seen them manhandle so many people and roughly throw them outside, even saw one of their men hitting a girl. drink is far too expensive anyway, its filthy and everyone is so packed in its so uncomfortable. definitely a place to avoid. | | Tuesday, August 16, 2005 | Rating: No rosettes |
| | T. Miller | A great bar,... but,... | | Great bar...!! One of the few pubs open to 3.. I really loved it... -But they lost a lot of customers because the staff was quite rude... Sad, but true... :-/
Or what do you say Olly and Arch...?... | | Tuesday, July 12, 2005 | Rating:   rosettes |
| | Donal Ryan | Mighty craic | | I spent the best 6 months of my life in Edinburgh and most of that was spent in dropkicks. I was there the day we beat england. What a session. Heavy handed door staff even though they are irish. Still, mighty craic. | | Wednesday, April 13, 2005 | Rating: No rosettes |
