Dukes

Proper neighbourhood bar on Duke Street where cocktails are taken seriously and the vibe is refreshingly unpretentious.

You'll find yourself on one of Leith's best stretches, where Duke Street has quietly become a destination in its own right. Dukes slots in perfectly with this crowd—the kind of place where bartenders actually know what they're doing, craft cocktails don't come with unnecessary theatre, and you can just as easily order a decent beer or a simple spirit. The room has that warm, lived-in feel that comes from being somewhere locals actually choose to spend their evenings, not somewhere designed to look that way. It's exactly what Leith's renaissance needed: a bar that respects both the drink and the drinker.
