Pivo: 2-6 Calton Rd, Edinburgh


In bar terms this is the equivalent of a Sweet and Sour Chicken. It calls itself a European bar but is actually fairly generic. There are a few European beers there such as Erdinger, Staropramen and Budvar (which you can also get in Wetherspoons) but the majority of beers are the likes of Tenant’s, Guinness, Miller, etc. The major advantage of this bar is it stays open until 3am which is great. While there is a dance floor it is pretty small and the feel of the place is more like a bar. It also doesn’t cost anything to get in which is a bonus, but as you’d expect with most late licences they don’t give the drink away! If ordering drinks at the bar chose your place wisely as there is a big metal semi-circle, sculpture type thing on the top of the bar (possibly it has something to do with the beer pipes?) which makes getting the bar staffs attention quite difficult.
All in all a good option after 1am for folk that don’t like dancing.
