13. The Cumberland Bar
Where: 1-3 Cumberland St, Edinburgh EH3 6RT. Time Out says: From the hanging baskets and beer garden outside to the warren of rooms inside with their simple, traditional decor, you can tell this is a highly civilised pub. Photo: Third Party
14. The Jolly Judge
Where: 7 James Court, Lawnmarket, Edinburgh, EH1 2PB. Time Out says: Its proximity to the tourist-friendly Royal Mile means it fills up quickly, but despite all that, it still manages to maintain a friendly, local atmosphere. Photo: Third Party
