Karey - if you walked out of the main entrance to Waverley Station(facing Princes Street gardens) and turned left, the road there is Cockburn Street. It is quite a steep hill and has some good shops on it and a few pubs too, including one just up from the corner - don't know them myself but there are reviews of them on Google and they always seem quite popular when I pass them. Also some sports bars right next to the station too (plus The Edinburgh Dungeons!!).
Sweets suggestion of finding somewhere in the Grass Market is good too - plenty of parking down the bottom (plus the opportunity for a Ghost Walk at night....).
Once again, I am not familiar with the pubs there but I DO know Frankenstein's very well, which is just up from the Grass Market on George IV Bridge. It is a themed pub (based on Dr Frankenstein's lab complete with monster!) has a great atmosphere, serves good food and has cute staff (of both sexes...). Has parking very near to it opposite the National Museum too.
grrrr just typed a reet long answer and lost it !! anyways to cut a long story short..
Moz... yeh im sure it was the Black Bull, we had a reet laff in there, some great ppl.
TC..yep i know Cockburn Street, there some good tattoo parlours up there too. And a little pub halfway up a lot of stairs.. called 'The Halfway House' I think.. and the Chinese Buffet place on the Bridge.. Jimmy Choos or sumthing ! lol brilliant!! i had some great times up there last year.. love Edinburry!!
OOhhh theres the Black Rose too.. on Rose Street.. i think,, kool pub, had some good afternoons/nights in there.
Anyways..back on thread.... I'm liking Sweets idea of the Grass Market area and the Ghost Walk sounds good too.
And hopefully get to the MAG rally agen this year, mite even get to Wildcats again.. if i get someone to take me ! lol
oooh gettin giddy now!!
Can you picture a Ghost walk after having a few beers? lol should be well funny have been on a couple of Ghost Tours in Edinburgh had a right laugh and the Dungeons are worth a visit All we need now is a few more who's interested and get a date sorted Look forward to it
