Sooo many brilliant local bars on Leith walk. 10-15 minute walk from our house. The further away from Edinburgh city centre you walk on Leith Walk the lesser the price! Far more locals drink in bars like The Harp & Castle, Robbies and The Brass Monkey

A real local pub with a few characters that are regularly there. Hosts a pub quiz on a Tuesday night from 19.30, get there a little earlier to get a seat. You may see us there! It is reasonably priced these days but does not take card unfortunately. There are a few cashlines just up the road however, one at Sainsburys and the Co-Op both marked in the guide, and one down the road opposite the Harp and Castle.

Hipster bar nearby the apartment. Can be expensive, the food is OK, nothing great. It does do great groupon/itison vouchers which are worth checking out.

Food Scene

Great Tapas surrounded by brilliant bars. Reasonable to slightly more expensive area. Most bars in this area will be slightly more pricey than others on Leith walk for example, however they are highly recommend!

Local restaurant with a strong heritage and proud history of supporting women in the local areas who are from backgrounds that suppress them. Add to it good food and corkage free BYOB as well as a short menu and you have yourself a good place to eat. The menu is extremely reasonably priced and is small so you know you aren't eating items that are based on the same sauce with a different vegetable included! The reviews are mixed which suggests it can be a hit or a miss.

Excellent Thai food at excellent prices. You cannot use your card and cannot book in advance so expect a queue outside which does go relatively fast. You do have to sit at communal tables so keep this in mind when going!

GREAT for a taste of our local pies on your way home from a night out! Open til the wee small hours so ask your Taxi Driver to take you to Storries! It is about a 15-20 minute walk from our flat as well so not too far at all for a tipsy stroll home! We'd love a pie, if you're going ;-)

Sightseeing

A long stroll along Portobello promenade clears the head! It can be cold due to the proximity to the sea, so keep that in mind when deciding what to wear. Nice views and a few bars and restaurants.
