You know that awkward moment when you’re on the Royal Mile, hungry, but everything is either a tourist trap or a pub that smells faintly of stale beer? Infirmary Street is your escape route. It’s literally a two-minute walk down from the Mile, right near the Cowgate.
You can pop in after visiting the National Museum of Scotland or after a ghost tour. It’s central enough to be easy, but hidden enough to feel like a discovery. You’ll thank yourself for remembering the address: 3-5 Infirmary St, Edinburgh EH1 1LT.
Just plug it into your maps and go. No reservations needed for smaller groups, though you might wait ten minutes during peak times. Use that time to peer through the window and get excited.
