Somewhere by Nico

You'll find Somewhere by Nico tucked away on Charlotte Lane, in that sweet spot between the New Town's Georgian elegance and the slightly rougher edges of Broughton Street. It's the kind of place where the bartenders know what they're doing but won't make you feel stupid for ordering a negroni. The drinks are crafted with actual care—they're not charging you £14 for theatre, but for genuinely good spirits knowledge and execution. It's got that lived-in Edinburgh vibe; locals actually drink here, not just tourists ticking boxes.
