The Street

A bar on Picardy Place, at the edge of Edinburgh's traditional gay quarter, drawing a predominantly male crowd of regulars and visitors alike. It has the feel of a proper local, with conversation at the bar rather than posturing, and enough space across its rooms to settle in for the evening without feeling cramped. Fridays and Saturdays run until 3am, making it one of the later options on the Edinburgh scene for those not heading to a club.
