As a…read morewelcome gift I received a small free beer for staying at the hostel and a discount on my food order. You're able to do a mobile order and pay for your food there, but if you want the discount you have to order from the bar and show your room key. They were open pretty late so it was convenient for me to grab a bite with my adjustment to the time change still off. The burger was ok, it came with some gravy to dip my fries and burger in but I didn't use it. There are a lot of better places to eat in Edinburgh but I just went here out of convenience. They host a lot of daily events so I imagine those are fun to socialize and meet new people passing through.

I mean it's OK - they've got a couple of decent beers on and the food is passable. But it's just got a bit of an odd feel to it. Also, it felt a little touristy. I'm struggling to sum up my feelings for this place. It's OK, but I can see no reason to ever go there because there are so many other places that are better. Yeah, that's a fair assessment. Not cheap either.

Down below in the basement level of Teviot lingers the Sportsman Bar! This bar provides coverage of…read moreall main sporting events and many football matches. The action can be seen on a large projected screen and also on several smaller wide screen televisions. The bar itself is currently getting a slight make over with lighter and fresher colours being added to the walls. There are loads of seating areas, including a couple of very comfy sofas! Furthermore, there are game machines and a wii! However, if you are still in need of some more entertainment then upstairs there are two rooms with pool tables. One room, which sits as a balcony above the main part of the Sportsman bar is dedicated to American pool tables while the other room has British pool tables. A word of warning though, even though pool costs 50p a game, the tables are highly unreliable and you will be very lucky if you don't go through an entire game without losing the cue ball or having to kick the table! Drinks are at student prices, but the Sportsman Bar does not have the same range of drinks on offer compared to the Library Bar. It is great that this bar is getting a makeover which it needs, and which will make this bar even better!

We tried on our first week in Edinburgh and failed, but were able to make reservations 3 weeks out for our last night in Scotland, and we are glad we did. Pork cracklins were a bit hard and crunchy, but everything else was perfect. We had fresh bread and langostinis for starters, along with a smokey whiskey cocktail, the Smoked Indiscretion! For mains we enjoyed the poached Cod, and the Pork with Barley. Service was very good, and wine selection was extensive. Atmosphere was loud with music and locals' chatter in the bar below, but dark tables and heavy wood panels made it a perfect place for a couple celebrating 3 weeks of travel. Highly recommend a visit to the Devil's Advocate, if you can book a table in advance.

But they call these lessons, "character building," apparently. No matter, the Devil's Advocate is worth the search. Located in an old Victorian pump house halfway up (or down) Advocate's Close, the Devil's Advocate is known for a killer whisky shelf of more than 300 different bottles from various distilleries across the Highlands, Lowlands, Speyside, Campbelltown, the Islands, and Islay. I finally sipped on a 15-year Tamdu that has convinced me to keep a bottle at home. Then there's the Clydeside 2024 Limited Edition Cask Strength that was wicked impressive. The bartenders are class at making and serving seasonal and regular cocktails that have their spin and character. My wife enjoyed gin-based cocktails such as the Clean Slate (with St-Germain, citrus, and sugar), Rose Garden (with Yellow Chartreuse, Cocchi Rosa, apple, lemon, and mint), and Bee's Knees (honey and lemon). I went full speed ahead with the scotch cocktails, which are essentially classics with a scotch-substituted twist. The Double Shot is an Espresso Martini with Dalmore 12 in addition to Kahlua, espresso, and demerara -- quite smooth without being too sweet. The Scotzia is a Negroni with Fettercairn 12, while the Boxcar is a Sidecar only with Aberfeldy 12. We enjoyed the bar for a few hours, watching the bartenders make magic while sipping on cocktails, while listening to 80s pop tunes. A great evening indeed.
