Roseleaf is a quirky little pub by the historic port of Leith, with tasty brunch options, mad hatter (and boozy) tea parties and a lengthy and extensive drink menu. It might be a bit off the beaten path, but well worth the detour. Plus you get to pass the picturesque Leith Shore on the way. Book your table in advance to avoid disappointment!

Visit if you love gin - in case you don't, you won't stay thirsty either. Besides the impressive selection of 70 gins from all over the world, they also have a range of wines, beers and coctails. Note that mixologists matched every gin with a specific tonic water, so you can also test the waiters' memory.

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.

Dark and dirty, the bar does different nights for industrial/ metal/ rock karaoke, and the music ranges from heavy metal bands from between the early 80s up to 2000s - thus you are in for a bit of a nostalgia trip.
