What makes The Street special

The Street is on the corner of Picardy Place and Broughton Street, right in the Pink Triangle with most of Edinburgh’s gay bars. Upstairs is a bright bar with big windows from which you can watch the goings-on outside; downstairs is the nightclub.

Extended opening hours apply during the festival in August and in December.

Atmosphere and crowd

During the day and early evening many come for a coffee or a first drink; later it gets louder and busier. The crowd is mixed, mostly between 25 and 45.
