Edinburgh, it’s been said, has more pubs and bars per square mile than any other city in the UK – so it’s no surprise there's some absolute crackers among them.
Now, popular travel magazine Time Out has compiled a list of what it reckons to be “the absolute best pubs in Edinburgh for drinks, food and just generally hanging out”.
Browse our photo gallery to see what Time Out considers to be Auld Reekie’s best boozers. And, before you go, please let us know your own favourites in the comments section.
Note, the pubs and bars are compiled in no particular order.
