Red Squirrel
21 Lothian Road,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2DJ
Having struck upon a winning formula of great beers and gourmet burgers with Holyrood 9A, it’s unsurprising to see owners Fuller Thomson attempt to replicate that success across town. While Red Squirrel lacks some of its sister venue’s subdued charm…
Henricks Bar
1 Barclay Place,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HW
This modern bistro bar provides a useful alternative to the more traditional boozers in the local area. Increasingly wine and food focused, the relaxed atmosphere means you will feel equally at home with a pint, a glass of wine and some nibbles or a…
The Links
2–4 Alvanley Terrace, Whitehouse Loan,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1DU
The Links Bar is the kind of establishment where anyone over thirty might feel out of place. Populated by gregarious guys and giggling gals, this is very much a student haunt especially popular with those looking for a raucous afternoon of televised…
1780
167 Rose Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4LS
Formerly known as the Bad Ass Bistro, this Rose Street pub has a dusky but snug interior, with walls peopled with iconic photos of the twentieth century’s good and great, making for a slightly clichéd yet classic pub vibe. Although 1780 seems to be in…
The Cambridge Bar
20 Young Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JB
The Cambridge Bar has long been known for its fine ales, and continues to offer more than 30 from around the world, together with guest beers from Scottish micro breweries. Tucked away in a cobbled thoroughfare running parallel to George Street and…
The Oxford Bar
8 Young Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JB
There may be those who suggest the Oxford’s reputation is entirely down to Ian Rankin, who drove his literary detective John Rebus in there on a frankly unprofessional number of occasions. Regulars, however, will tell you the reputation was always…
Bennets Bar
8 Leven Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9LG
Established in 1875, Bennets feels reassuringly as if little has changed in over a century. This is not the place to come looking for lattes, cocktails or wi-fi. It is most definitely somewhere to come and see the original Victorian fittings of the…
Hamiltons Bar and Kitchen
16–18 Hamilton Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5AU
This dusky Stockbridge stronghold never looks the most inviting, yet is always busy – packed with pram-pushing mothers during the hours of daylight, and stuffed with drink-quaffing suits of an evening. And, with separate menus on offer for breakfast…
The George Hotel
Main St East,
Inveraray,
Argyll and Bute,
PA32 8TT
The emphasis here is on good quality, local produce in relaxed and friendly surroundings; enjoy wild Argyll vension or potted Tarbert crab in front of one of the hotel's four open fires.
Traverse Bar Café
10 Cambridge Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2ED
As one of Edinburgh’s most popular art hubs, the Traverse Theatre has long been a firm favourite – and the attached café-bar plays its part in that enduring appeal. Families are made welcome day and night, thanks to the café being kid-friendly until…
Candy Kitchen and Bar
113–115 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JN
This George Street favourite screams class and decadence, with its gleaming wooden floor and tables, smooth leather booths and dinky eggcup-shaped swivel chairs. It also says clearly night-time fun and frolics for the hip and happening. More sedately it…
Ivory Lounge
126–128 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JN
For an after-work drink and bite to eat the Ivory Lounge is a comfortable option. A flamboyant entrance with patterned mirrors and upholstered seating gives way to a large bar and dining area. Part of a chain of similar bars, the interior is a…
Tigerlily
125 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JN
Tigerlily is the flagship venue for the Montpelier Group, a set of well-liked, bold restaurants and bars in the city, centred around this boutique hotel, restaurant and bar on George Street. The restaurant layout is charmingly haphazard, with mismatched…
The Blue Blazer
2 Spittal Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9DX
Apparently Rod Stewart frequented this establishment in his younger days, and in many ways, the Blue Blazer is just like an ageing rock star, with its whiff of nostalgia and an unmistakeable smell of stale booze. And despite the fact that is has seen…
Kay’s Bar
39 Jamaica Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6HF
This pocket-sized pub, squirreled away among the New Town’s cobbles, is the perfect place for whiling away an afternoon with the papers and a pint. Refreshingly unpretentious, it offers a window into the pre-wine-bar world, with a focus on real ales and…
The Cloisters
26 Brougham Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9JH
Despite the name and former-church setting, the only monks you’ll find in The Cloisters are those behind the bar – in the form of guest beers like the fruity (and potent) Westmalle, brewed by Belgian Trappists. They’d no doubt approve of the no-frills…
Tonic
34 North Castle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3BN
While first and foremost a cocktail bar, Tonic also manages to produce a small but appetising menu. And although the surroundings might bear more than a passing resemblance to a Polish casino, the food is both tasty and good value. Succulent prawn…
St Vincent Bar
11 St Vincent Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6SW
‘The Vinnie’ has built a loyal following over the years, drawn by a cosy atmosphere, an array of draft ales supplemented by a guest option, an equally impressive range of bottled beers, and a wide choice of spirits. While some drinkers prefer to stand…
Iglu
2b Jamaica Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6HH
For all that it is tucked at the far end of a side-street, Iglu has established an enviable profile, priding itself on serving seasonal, locally-sourced, organic and wild foods in the cosy upstairs restaurant and downstairs bar area. Proving high…
The Standard
24 Howe Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6TG
With four large TV screens this is a popular location for watching live sports, especially rugby internationals when free pies are served during half time. The decor has a 1930s American feel with fixed red leather seats, deco-style lights and framed…
