Edinburgh, United Kingdom — Edinburgh's Irish pubs concentrate around the Grassmarket and Cowgate, with Biddy Mulligans holding the corner spot under the castle. Thirteen of the fourteen verified pubs here run live music, though genuine trad sessions are scarcer than covers bands — Finnegan's Wake is the reliable bet for the former. During the Festival in August, every one of them is rammed; arrive before 8pm or embrace standing. There are 14 verified Irish pubs in Edinburgh on Craic Map, with photos, opening hours, and features for each.
