The pub’s story
The Murrayfield Bar & Kitchen fills a long stretch of Roseburn Terrace, close enough to the stadium for rugby fixtures and concerts to change the pace of the room. This is a pub with recent chapters rather than an old interior story. CAMRA records a reopening after refurbishment in 2021, followed by a new operator in October 2025. The same record says the venue was fully open again by 11 October. Its own website now lists a short trading week from Thursday to Sunday. Star Pubs is advertising a further investment plan, but that work is still presented as a proposal. For now, it is a working match-day and neighbourhood bar whose hours and layout may change as the next refurbishment develops.

Sources & confidence
CAMRA records the 2021 reopening, the October 2025 operator change and the return to full opening by 11 October. The official website confirms the current name, address and Thursday-to-Sunday schedule. Star Pubs advertises a further investment plan, but its proposed features are not described as complete. The 2001 Gazette notice provides a dated planning record for work at the premises. The official site marks the telephone as to be confirmed, while CAMRA shows an older number, so the app leaves the phone blank.
