On the Grid : Smoke & Mirrors

"One of Leith’s newest venues, Smoke & Mirrors has an excellent choice of local beers served in optional schooner measures (two thirds of a pint). The decor is an eclectic mis-mash of up-cycled furniture and lights, giving it a retro 90s vibe. Think greens and purples - channel your inner teenage girl's bedroom. The bar also prides itself on sustainability, with food and drinks responsibly sourced. Try the Brazilian Bramble cocktail, topped off with Fair Trade acai berry liqueur, and if you get peckish tuck in to the selection of meat and cheese platters available." - fourcolourblack

Leith... and Edinburgh's new rising star. They say the best things come in small packages. Get off the tram at Foot of The Walk and you're there. While away a bit of time with nice folks, a great bar and genuinely friendly bar staff 👌🤗

This is a really nice, cozy and calm pub for a good drink with a nice atmosphere. There's good background music, and it's not too loud that you can barely hear the person you're chatting with. There's also no glaring TV taking the attention away from any banter that might be happening. They've got funky decor any the staff were grand, always to hand, regularly checking up on folk and taking away empty glasses.

Amazing cocktails served by super friendly waiters like Joe. We were talked through our cocktail and spoke about the ingredients. Lovely vibes, great atmosphere and cosy setting.

Best wee bar in Leith. Delicious drinks, brilliant staff, place is stylish yet comfy and cosy. Always has good music and the weekend evenings guarantees a good crowd with friendly folk that love a random blether. Today we sat outside in the sunshine for a post lunch drink. Love this place.

Such a lovely place at the Foot Of The Walk. Good drinks, lovely staff, nice music and great cozy living room vibes, definitely recommend! I believe they do a Tuesday Quiz, but any other night of the week is just as nice.

Great little alternative bar, fantastic selection of music and a class cocktail menu. Affordable and good quality.

Great little bar hidden put the way, inside nicely decorated and felt comfortable. Covid procedures seemed good apart from allowing 1 man to just move from table to table. They had a great drinks selection, we ordered cocktails although their menu doesnt really suit me. Not really much Whisky cocktails and too many are creamy, yuk!! Other that a good beers, cider and spirit selection most of them local. Id go back for drinks not cocktails. Staff were really nice, welcoming and thisvis one of the reasons id return.
