Great in itself. Also, I always think you can tell a good pub by what they charge for a pint of coke. This passes the test.

Cracking boozer. Lovely place to while away an evening and a good one to escape the hustle and bustle of Fringe.

A cozy, basement-level gem in the heart of Edinburgh with an atmosphere that’s equal parts warm and characterful. The scotch whisky selection is extensive and well-curated, and their rotating taps keep things interesting, with a few excellent cask ales from local breweries on offer. The bartender was genuinely friendly and happy to chat, adding to the welcoming feel. A standout is their weekly showcased whisky, the “Dug Dram,” which is offered at a very affordable price—perfect for exploring something new without breaking the bank. A great spot for both whisky lovers and casual pub-goers alike.
