(104 Hanover St; ) A cellar furnished with stone-slab floors and a fire sale of battered,
mismatched sofas and armchairs makes an unlikely setting for one of Edinburgh's best
cocktail bars, but the relaxed atmosphere and friendly welcome here can't be beat. Excel-
lent mixed drinks and some unusual bottled beers, but no brews on tap.
Kay's Bar
Offline map Google map
( www.kaysbar.co.uk ; 39 Jamaica St) Housed in a former wine merchant's office, tiny
Kay's Bar is a cosy haven with a coal fire and a fine range of real ales. Good food is
served in the back room at lunchtime, but you'll have to book a table - Kay's is a popular
spot.

Amicus Apple
Offline map Google map
( www.amicusapple.com ; 15 Frederick St; ) This laid-back cocktail lounge is the
hippest hang-out in the New Town. The drinks menu ranges from retro classics such as
Bloody Marys and mojitos, to original and unusual concoctions such as the Cuillin martini
(Tanqueray No 10 gin, Talisker malt whisky and smoked rosemary).
COCKTAIL BAR
Leith
Roseleaf
( www.roseleaf.co.uk ; 23-24 Sandport Pl; 10am-1am; ) Cute and quaint and verging
on chintzy, the Roseleaf could hardly be further from the average Leith bar. Decked out in
flowered wallpaper, old furniture and rose-patterned china (cocktails are served in
teapots), the real ales and bottled beers are complemented by a range of speciality teas,
coffees and fruit drinks (including rose lemonade) and well-above-average pub grub
(served 10am to 10pm).
CAFE-BAR
Teuchter's Landing
( www.aroomin.co.uk ; 1 Dock Pl; ) A cosy warren of timber-lined nooks and crannies
housed in a single-storey red-brick building (once a waiting room for ferries across the
Firth of Forth), this real-ale and malt-whisky bar also has outdoor tables on a floating ter-
race in the dock.
