For sublime sips in the sunshine, nab a spot on DogHouse Edinburgh's cool terrace. From snazzy alfresco furniture covered by pergolas with heaters to rounded benches and luscious foliage, it's a great spot to dive into the 30 taps of craft beer on offer.
A wonderland of craft beers, cocktails and stone-baked pizzas, Cold Town House offers a fantastic spot for your weekend antics. But the real showstopper here has to be the rooftop bar near Edinburgh Castle, which comes complete with lovely views and foliage-adorned pergolas.
