The Last Drop

Pub · Old Town

"Located off Edinburgh's Grassmarket, The Last Drop's macabre past is part of its draw: The name references the square outside, which was once Edinburgh's hanging grounds. Don't expect a gloomy vibe inside, though. The place retains its traditional character, with plenty of banter and great beers to try (plus an excellent selection of British and craft gins)." - Krystin Arneson
