Greenside, Edinburgh
Bar in Edinburgh, United Kingdom
Book with PearlWhy go
Lady Libertine is worth booking when the evening needs dinner, cocktails, and late-night energy in one polished New Town setting. The split-level format works well for small groups and dates that may run long, with shared plates, wine, and a cocktail-bar finish. Go earlier for conversation; go later when a livelier room is the point.
About Lady Libertine
Should you plan around Lady Libertine in Edinburgh? The details are simple: it is open daily from midday, closes at 11 PM Monday to Thursday and Sunday, and closes at 12 AM on Friday and Saturday. Dress is smart casual. Beyond those points, specific claims about menu, drinks, layout, pricing, booking policy, or service style should be checked directly with the venue before you build an evening around them.
That makes Lady Libertine most useful to consider when the key requirement is timing. It has consistent midday-to-late-evening hours across the week, with a later finish on Friday and Saturday. If you need a precisely food-led, drinks-led, or format-specific plan, confirm those details with the venue rather than assuming them from third-party descriptions.
Go for the late-evening flexibility, but verify the details that matter
Lady Libertine’s confirmed schedule gives it a broad window for Edinburgh plans: 12–11 PM from Monday to Thursday and Sunday, and 12 PM–12 AM on Friday and Saturday. That is the grounded reason to shortlist it for an evening when timing matters. For menu style, drinks focus, prices, reservations, dietary needs, or group arrangements, contact the venue directly before committing.
If you are comparing it with more dining-led options, use our full Edinburgh restaurants guide and check each venue’s current details carefully. The best choice will depend less on assumptions about Lady Libertine’s concept and more on whether its confirmed hours and smart casual dress code fit the occasion.
The decision comes down to timing, dress code, and how much certainty you need
Smart casual dress is the guidance, so plan for a polished but not overly formal visit. The hours are also clear enough for basic scheduling: daily opening from 12 PM, with 11 PM closes most nights and midnight closes on Friday and Saturday.
For wider Edinburgh planning, compare options through our full Edinburgh bars guide. You can also compare Lady Libertine with other named options such as Lamplighters, Palm Court, SCOTCH, The Register Club, or W Lounge, depending on the kind of evening you are trying to build. Visitors building a full trip can also use broader Edinburgh guides for hotels, wineries, and experiences.
Bottom line: consider Lady Libertine for an Edinburgh plan where confirmed opening hours and a smart casual dress code are enough to start the shortlist. If menu, drinks, price, atmosphere, or booking details are decisive, verify them directly before you go.

Bar context
How it compares in Edinburgh
Choose Lady Libertine over The Register Club when the night needs more food flexibility and a less formal glide from dinner into cocktails. The Register Club is the cleaner pick for a composed hotel-bar feel, while Lady Libertine is better for groups who want a livelier late-evening rhythm without making a second booking.
Against Lamplighters and W Lounge, Lady Libertine is the more useful middle ground: polished enough for a planned night out, but not as narrowly lounge-led. Pick Lamplighters or W Lounge when the setting matters more than the food; pick Lady Libertine when shared plates are part of the brief.
If whisky is the priority, SCOTCH is the sharper match. If afternoon tea or a grand hotel room is the occasion, Palm Court makes more sense. Lady Libertine wins for an easier, later, more social evening where cocktails and food need equal billing.
