As we are also going it would be a good opportunity to meet up with fellow fabbers for a social drink. If anyone wants to meet up please feel free to get in touch with either bearhugs or ourselves xxx |

Hi
Grassmarket is good for pubs better than rose street I think
but might be more of a choice on rose street which has a few pubs dotted around close by as well
If your going in the afternoon/early evening I would pick rose street, later on in the night the Grass market end prob better

"Rutland hotel now Huxley ; enjoy "
cheers for that
then there is always the Dome but I prefer the old style pubs of Royal Mile, but that's why we are all different |

We would agree with Rose Street. Amber Rose in the West end of Rose Street then we love Milnes - up at the Rose Street level its a loud raucous Friday night pub with music etc; go down stairs and you can eat excellent food then through to the quieter Hanover Street basement bar area with its roaring open fire. Three pubs in one!
Also from Rose Street you can sample George Street but head back if its not for you! |

"Really! I am in licencing and property business and can tell u it's fact! ... go see for urself "
Don't need to 'go see for myself'. Lived in Edinburgh all my life and whenever I'm out in town I go to the grassmarket. To say it's full of students is just utter bollocks. If you don't like the place, just say, no need to concoct a story.  |

Go to a pub called the ( Malt Shovel ) Cockburn st then follow road up and you will come to the Royal Mile few pubs around there, turn to your right at the top off road and walk up royal mile head towards castle and when you see royal bank left hand side go down that street then turn right now your in the grass market few pubs around there , hope that helps and enjoy your time in Edinburgh as I do every time I visit the place  |

Born and bred Edinburgh here.
Morning.
Rose Street and Grassmarket are both good. George Street is a fiver a vodka and unless you do A G Bells or Standing Order. Amber Rose is excellent on corner of Rose St and Castle St. Avoid Huxleys unless you have just won the lotto.
Grassmarket - 3 sisters and last drop are my particular favourites. Usually a good mixture of people. Popular with stag and hen nights.

"Don't start ur class shite again LOL!
Yes, he does not want pretentious so George St could be viewed as this!
It's Auld Reekie and all bars are good! "
You trying to say standing order is pretentious? Lol place is a shit hole. As are half the places on George street. Some places could be classed as pretentious but as a whole the street is average at best. |

Totally agree, standing order and few others are certainly not, was referring too - Tiger, etc... I don't see them as pretentious... be disloyal if I did! |
