Self-billed as Scotland's most haunted pub, the labyrinth of vaulted Niddry Street chambers serves cheap beer, free cinema nights and a karaoke room in former medieval cellars.
TipThe cinema room is free and shows cult films most nights, the back vault has the loudest karaoke if you want to sing without being heard.
The West Bow whisky and cask ale specialist runs a back bar of over 200 Scotch whiskies plus a rotating cellar of Scottish cask, no music and no televisions.
TipAsk for one of the bar's own limited bottlings, single cask Highland or Islay releases that are not sold anywhere else in the city.
The Hope Street basement under the corner of Charlotte Square is a candlelit warren of historic wine-cellar vaults serving Scottish seafood and a deep wine list to late night drinkers.
TipFind the entrance under the stair on Hope Street, the back-corner booth in the second vault is the best seat for a long conversation.
The converted Cowgate church runs free live bands and ceilidh nights until 03:00 every day over two floors, the most reliable late-night live room in the Old Town.
TipThe Wednesday ceilidh is beginner friendly, the caller walks the room through every dance before the band starts the first reel.
The tiny Infirmary Street pub fits about forty people and has been the heart of the Edinburgh folk scene since the 1960s, traditional song sessions in the upstairs room every night.
TipThe Sunday night Wee Folk Club is the standout, arrive an hour before the set to get one of the upstairs benches near the singers.
The arts-trust run Bongo Club just off the Cowgate is the long-running heart of Edinburgh underground clubbing, with weekly drum and bass, dub and disco residencies.
TipCash for the cloakroom moves the queue quickly, and the side door on Cowgate is the shorter wait after midnight on a Saturday.
