The Kilderkin
67 Canongate,
Edinburgh,
EH8 8BT
With a name like this (it’s a unit of measuring ale equivalent to two firkins or half a barrel) it’s no surprise to find that Kilderkin is serious about its alcohol. Under the co-ownership of James Nisbet, also of Leith Walk’s Windsor Buffet and…
The Regent Bar
2 Montrose Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH7 5DL
Edinburgh's gay real ale pub. Relaxed and comfortable, The Regent is not the archetypal gay bar. It has been voted Edinburgh Pub Of The Year in both 2008 & 2010 by the Campaign for Real Ale.

The Sheep Heid
43–45 The Causeway, Duddingston,
Edinburgh,
EH15 3QA
Stranded on the shores of Duddingston Loch, the venerable Sheep Heid Inn (which holds a solid claim to be the oldest pub in Scotland) is a well-known spot long popular with footsore travellers escaping from the city. Entering the whitewashed stone…
The Canon's Gait
232 Canongate,
Edinburgh,
EH8 8DQ
The Canon’s Gait is a pub with plans. It has become something of a hub for Edinburgh’s Gaelic community, and hosts Scottish folk music three nights a week: as a large space in the traditional heart of the city it takes to these roles well. It backs up…
The Holyrood 9A
9a Holyrood Road,
Edinburgh,
EH8 8AE
If you can’t remember your last really great burger, head to Holyrood Road to have your faith in the patty renewed. Savouries are split between ‘one’ and ‘two handers’ – the former being edible with a fork while chatting, the latter needing both hands…
The Auld Hoose
23–25 St Leonards Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9QN
Standing proud on the Pleasance for nearly a century and a half, the Auld Hoose is viewed with affection by its locals and habitués as an unfussy establishment with an emphasis on good beer and hearty pub grub. The bar is well-stocked with an…
The White Horse
266 Canongate,
Edinburgh,
EH8 8AA
With sofas that absorb you, gently lit stone walls and soft-voiced classics on the stereo, this pub has one of the most chilled-out back rooms possible. It’s not surprising, then, that it’s used by an eclectic mix of communities, from tarot reading to…
El Bar
6–8 Howden Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9LH
Little L-shaped El Bar is the tapas bar and restaurant of Scotland’s only dedicated Flamenco school and studio, Alba Flamenca. It’s an unusual set-up, but one that’s won plenty of fans since its inception in 2008. Diners hoping for intimacy here might…
Barioja
15-19 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DR
Barioja has been dishing out its albondigas for over a decade, so could be considered a pioneer of the still relatively youthful Edinburgh tapas scene. Sitting alongside its big sister restaurant, Iggs, it’s seen competition come and go over the years…
The Salisbury Arms
58 Dalkeith Road,
Edinburgh,
EH16 5AD
Opened in June 2011, the Salisbury Arms was the first Scottish venture of the Village Pub and Kitchen group (their takeover of the Sheep’s Heid being a close second). With 39 establishments across the UK their ethos is to keep an independent spirit in…
The Ale House
18–22 Clerk Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9HX

Greenmantle
133 Nicolson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9JP
With a scoreboard of their top beers on the wall and poker nights on Sundays, this old-fashioned corner bar’s relatively recent update appears to have taken place with the local student population in mind. The atmosphere is somewhere between shabby-chic…
The Brass Monkey
14 Drummond Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9TU
Drummond Street’s long-established original branch of the Brass Monkey is a bar with a mainly studenty crowd and a bunk-seated cinema in the back room showing classic films at 3pm every day. It now has a sister venue on Leith Walk with its own big…
The Royal Oak
1 Infirmary Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1LT
An honest, frill-free hub for local Scottish folk music, the Royal Oak represents Edinburgh’s ever-diminishing traditional face, stripped of canned bagpipes, faux chandeliers and obscure cocktail ingredients – in fact, any cocktail ingredients. This is…
Whiski
119 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SG
With its antlers, tartan and tongue-in-cheek name, this might seem at first glance like another tourist-centric set-up. Instead, Whiski delivers a buzzy atmosphere, some fine food and a drinks list to satisfy the most specific of whims. The (somewhat…
The Meadow Bar
42-44 Buccleuch Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9LP
With Edinburgh University around the corner, it is little surprise that the Meadow Bar has long been a favourite of students and academics. Those in the know forsake the self-consciously happening haunts in this part of town for the understated cool of…

2–6 Calton Road,
Edinburgh,
EH8 8DL
A selection of the best Edinburgh DJs play every night for free.
The Reverie
1 Newington Road,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1QS
Reverie's split-level set up gives visitors plenty of options. Tuck yourself into a comfy chair for some undisturbed peace and a pint, or watch the world go by perched up at the dining tables opposite the huge windows. The lunch menu is compact and well…
The Pear Tree House
34 West Nicolson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DD
The grande dame of the Southside drinking scene has been standing proud on the spot since 1749, and 2012 sees the thirtieth anniversary of its current incarnation. The Pear Tree’s justifiably famed selling point is the large walled beer garden…
City Café
19 Blair Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1QR
Pull up your pop socks and pick a song for the juke box: the City Café is your Grease-shaped American diner. Its red banquettes are just right for a short lie down after eating more than your fill of the great BBQ sharing platter, with sticky pork ribs…
