Bramble Bar & Lounge

Wondering why the picture above? Bramble Bar is probably the most hidden bar of the city, hidden beneath a dry cleaner in a basement. At first it might seem a bit dodgy to take the stairs to a dark New Town basement. Once you are through the door, you will find yourself in a cave-like cosy bar with an extensive drink list.

The Canny Man's

It's a truly historic pub, open since 1871. Try not to lose your confidence reading the sign outside the pub: 'no smoking. no credit cards. no mobile phones. no cameras. no backpackers'. Indeed there is strict door selection, but if you get in (as I did), you can expect a truly unique experience. Dress smart casual.

Fancy a drink, but want to avoid the tourist trap Grassmarket bars? Walk a bit further, towards Edinburgh's strip club area, the so-called 'Pubic Triange'. Dragonfly is located halfway between the two, and it is a perfect stop for a tasty coctail. The staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is warm in this cosy wee bar.
