Three Marys

Walk into Three Marys and you'll immediately clock the place has character—the kind you can't manufacture. It's housed in a beautiful old Leith townhouse, all exposed brick and period details, but done without any of that try-hard aesthetics nonsense. The bar staff actually know what they're doing, crafting cocktails that feel considered rather than Instagram-baity. You'll find locals propping up the bar alongside folk who've made the journey from the city centre, which tells you something about the quality of both the drinks and the atmosphere.
