Abode Bar on Leith Walk is an absolute treasure. From the moment you step through the door, you’re welcomed with warmth, charm, and genuinely friendly service that makes you feel right at home. The staff are not only attentive and knowledgeable, but they create such a relaxed, inviting atmosphere that it's hard not to settle in for the whole evening. The drinks selection is fantastic - local beers, and a few unique surprises that make each visit feel special. There's clearly a lot of love and thought put into what they serve, and it shows in both quality and presentation. What really sets Abode apart, though, is the vibe. It’s cozy without being cramped, stylish without trying too hard, and always buzzing with good energy. Whether you're out for a quiet drink or catching up with friends, this place strikes the perfect balance. If you haven’t been yet, do yourself a favour and drop in - you'll be glad you did. A proper Leith gem!
