September 16, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Escape the main drag in Stockbridge at Crybaby, a friendly bar serving thousands of chicken wings and Smashburgers. With a jukebox controlling the screens and a “no crybabies” attitude, it’s a refreshingly different and affordable spot.

Review: The Cocktail Geeks, a cocktail bar in the city centre

September 13, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The Cocktail Geeks delivers a fantastic, themed experience. The Stranger Things decor was atmospheric, the staff attentive, and the drinks menu (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic) was a creative triumph. A top spot for an Instagram-worthy night out in the city centre.

Review: Chilo’s, a burger restaurant on Clerk Street

August 30, 2025 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Chilo’s in Edinburgh’s Southside promises big things with its monster burgers and own-brand cola. The food is good, but the messy, unclean venue lets it down. A potentially great spot for a burger fix, if you can overlook the grime.
