16 Best Bars & Pubs in Edinburgh | Condé Nast Traveler

"It's clear that Bow Bar's management cares about keeping the tradition of a proper pub alive at a time when so many are disappearing: You won't find music blaring—or any music, for that matter—or TVs broadcasting the latest match. Instead, the focus is squarely on the details, from the polished wood bar to gleaming brass taps that date back to the 1920s. The bar stocks more than 300 single malts alone, but there are also six kegs and eight cask ales, so keep an eye out for your favorite British real ales and craft breweries, as well as under-the-radar international selections." - Krystin Arneson
