About the Pub
Sandy Bell's is THE place to hear free live folk music in Edinburgh every evening and on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Bring along an instrument and join in! An arch, the gantry bar counter and wall panelling are all in dark wood, in marked contrast to the atmosphere which is far from gloomy. The lunchtime pies are excellent and, in addition to five real ales, there is an impressive range of malt whiskies and craft gins.
Children are not admitted.
