Our Take

Old Town's Hidden Basement Speakeasy

Underdog is a hidden Old Town basement cocktail bar — accessed through an unmarked door, a basement corridor, and a velvet curtain. The 32-seat speakeasy is dimly lit with leather banquettes and a long marble bar.

The cocktail program is built on classics with hyper-modern technique. Bartenders work with hand-cut ice and squeezed-to-order citrus. Reservations recommended.

Pair with The Last Word Saloon for a complete Edinburgh speakeasy evening.

What to Order

Underdog Old Fashioned

Bourbon, demerara, orange. Hand-cut ice. The signature.

Negroni

Gin, Campari, vermouth. Stirred properly.

Whisky Sour

Premium Scotch, lemon, egg white. Their take on the classic.

Bartender Choice

You describe a mood, they build the drink. Trust the speakeasy.
