The Galleon

You'll find yourself on Portobello High Street—that stretch of Leith that's been quietly brilliant for years—pushing open The Galleon's door to discover the kind of bar that doesn't need to shout about itself. It's unpretentious without trying, the sort of place where the bartender knows what you're having before you order and the crowd's a proper mix of locals, workers popping in after their shift, and people who've figured out that some of the city's best drinking happens away from the city centre.
