The Voyage of Buck

Globetrotting Flavors & Edwardian Glamour on William Street

Tucked away on the charming cobbled stretch of William Street in Edinburgh's West End, The Voyage of Buck is a sophisticated gastropub inspired by the fictional Victorian gentleman, philanthropist, and traveler, William 'Buck' Clarence. The interior is a marvel of velvet banquettes, polished brass, dark mahogany, and vintage travel curios collected from Buck's travels between 1890 and 1910.

World-Class Cocktail Storytelling & Gastro Dining

The Voyage of Buck is celebrated for its narrative-driven cocktail menus, structured around Buck's famous international expeditions:

• Paris & London Flights: Elegant absinthe, cognac, and dry gin creations paired with delicate floral bitters.
• Taipei & Havana Infusions: Exotic rum, lapsang souchong tea, and tropical botanical blends.
• Seasonal Scottish Gastro Menu: Small plates and mains featuring pan-seared sea bass, Highland venison, truffle mac & cheese, and vegan heritage squash.

It remains one of the West End's favorite evening haunts for stylish post-work drinks, romantic candlelit dinners, and weekend brunches.
