The Last Word in Edinburgh, City of

Beautiful little cocktail bar, stylishly decorated and lit. Lovely chatty barmen behind the counter.

Great cocktails and good selection of ciders/ beers

Probably my favourite place in Edinburgh, for everything from a quiet afternoon or early evening tipple to a go-to destination for visitors to the city. The cocktail list is extensive and universally brilliant (By the Fire is a personal favourite), but it's their whisky flights that stand out for me, both for the shared experience and the uniquely passionate and personal selections. Always the first bar that comes to mind if ever I'm asked for recommendations.

The vibes in here are great and so is the service. I didn’t particularly enjoy my cocktails, found them way too strong/unenjoyable but I’d try here again. My friend loved ger dry martini.

Dress like it's hot & humid out. Inside 💠 it is. Cocktails on point though.

Awesome bar... warm and cozy, with delicious cocktails, the best music... and an extremely friendly, smiling and lively bartender. The best place in Edinburgh. I wish I had such a place in Spain!

Had a great time with my mates. Shout out to Felix for a superb service. Nice vibe for a few drinks.

Such a swanky, cool atmosphere. We wanted a nightcap and we were not disappointed. Our server was excellent and gave great recommendations. He made us “The Flip”, which was a dessert cocktail and we ordered 3 because they were delicious. Would definitely visit again whenever we’re in the area!

One of the best bars in Edinburgh. The staff is amazing, true masters of cocktail making. They earned their spurs in regards to whiskey and the rest. An amazing location in the quieter parts of Edinburgh with some awesome patrons as well. Special thanks to Felix who took great care of us a couple of weeks ago as well as the rest of their wonderful bar brigade. It’s a must visit when you’re in Edinburgh.

Great spot for a cocktail. Super friendly bartenders and servers. Delicious drinks. Amazing music. Great atmosphere. Highly recommend this little cocktail bar.

Great staff, great cocktails and an amazing setting.

Idiosyncratic! I came to taste the drams, I stayed for the cocktails. Amazing service from one of the guys with long hair !!!

I did not immediately spot this place, as it is well hidden, but I really loved it! It has a lovely, cozy atmosphere with some lovely decor. My partner and I set on some comfortable armchair by the fire! The bartender was really friendly and really patient and helpful when we asked him lots of questions about the cocktails. The cocktails are really unique and interesting, and they seem to have some ingredients that they make themselves. I really enjoyed the ones we ordered. In general, they seem to have a great selection of drinks.

Great cocktails and atmosphere.

Amazing setting, amazing prices, amazing drinks, amazing service - what more could you want

Intimate spot with great drink options. Staff are super friendly. Walk-ins welcome. Will definitely return.

Great wee cocktail bar. Cool ambiance, recommend for a nice chat with a friend or for a date. Had a simple G&T for £6.50, but great options for cocktails and spirits Staff super nice and welcoming too

Truly magic in here, barstaff were perfect, cocktails were banging

The Last Word has to be the coziest cocktail place I've visited in Edinburgh, with a chill and relaxing ambience. The service was great and the cocktails were top tier. Would definitely recommend for cocktail enthusiasts and looking forward to visiting again soon.

Fantastic vibes and really knowledgeable staff. Thanks Felix for your input on what whisky to try!

We tried four different cocktails and they were all amazing. All of them came with a twist that makes you wonder how all those different ingredients are combined in harmony. Even their notorious goat chese cocktail made sense after the first sip. Highly recommended for whoever whishes to experience a palette orgasm and broaden his/her cocktail horizons. Also the music really fits the vibe of the bar, very good tunes.

There's no food but a great little gem of a place for a drink.

Consistently just great vibes and great service. I’ve been 3 times and each time I get the same attentive service and immaculate atmosphere. Great place with passionate service people. Thanks lads :)

Amazing service, really cozy atmosphere when it's dark

What a treat -- what a truly delightful cocktail bar that happens to make the eponymous drink very very well. Cozy ambiance, pleasant candles & creative decor, and awesome staff who were both very friendly and very knowledgeable. I'm quite glad I went out of my way to come here tonight. Be aware the entrance was a little tricky to find as it's below street level.

Great cocktails and friendly staff. They are as happy for you to pick from their cocktail menu as to come up with an original cocktail for you.

Excellent location for cocktails and whiskey. Profound experts behind the bar!

Great bar with unique cocktails and unique place

Great place to have a whiskey or two. Love the ambience and being a bit outside the hustle and bustle.

A cool, retro intimate cocktail bar. Been making visits for years. Love the whiskey sours . Not a large space but very chilled and not many cocktails they can’t provide. Love the audio of the classic stand up comedians while visiting the restrooms.

Stumbled across this bar. Stayed for a couple of cocktails. Nice

Very cool spot in New Town. Service was great, attentive without being intrusive or pushy. Knowledgeable on the drinks, helpful in guidance with the same. Prices were very reasonable, drink selection was great. Would definitely recommend.

What a fantastic little find. We were recommended to head to Stockbridge to avoid the hustle and bustle of the Fringe and stumbled across The Last Word. Set down one flight of stairs, big old chairs in a warm rustic environment, with a warm welcome from the staff. We only had drinks but the cocktails were sublime, some of the best I've ever had. I can only apologise as I didn't get their names but the two male members of staff, were top notch. Warm, approachable and very good at what they do. We will definitely be back. A lovely way to spend an afternoon.

Each drink on the menu is a work of art, expertly crafted with precision and creativity. Whether you're a cocktail enthusiast or new to mixology, you're sure to find something that will tantalise your taste buds. The staff at The Last Word were friendly, attentive, and knowledgeable, making the entire experience even more enjoyable. They were happy to recommend drinks based on individual preferences and always ready to share the stories behind each cocktail creation

Beautifully concocted drinks with a great vibe and even better service. My only complaint is that I wish they had more boozy options to get more bang for the buck 😬

Interesting cocktails and lovely atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Fantastic cocktail bar in a lovely spot. The Last Word definitely deserves the hype; the drinks were delicious, the bar had fantastic vibes with an open fire, a sunny aspect and cushioned corners. Service was great, if anything a touch over attentive at times - but better over than under!

One of the best cocktail places in town. The staff is extra friendly and their cocktails are amazing. Highly recommend.

One of my favourite cocktail bars in edinburgh, fantastic atmosphere, knowledgeable bar staff and a great menu

Lovely bar. Dim lightning. Very good cocktails, and great location.

Best cocktails in Edinburgh by a long shot. Incredibly unique and not a single miss yet.

Great service, but the cocktails were underwhelming for the price. Lovely atmosphere though.

Amazing tucked away cocktail bar with great libations and a cozy vibe!

The cocktails are delicious, ambience perfect and the service exemplary. I'll be back for sure.

A candle lit gem in Stockbridge. Excellent cocktails and a very good selection of whisky served by friendly staff.

Super nice stuff! Good drinks, nice atmosphere! We'll be back soon.

Extra cosy atmosphere, great drinks and very kind and fun staff. Recommend the spot in front of the fireplace!

There is absolutely nothing that cannot be fixed with an optic old fashioned and a fire

Probably my favourite bar in Edinburgh - nice atmosphere, excellent service and "across the universe" might be best cocktail out there.

For anyone who loves whiskey, cocktails or just a comfortable seat to enjoy a quiet drink this is the bar for you. Can't rate the passion and friendliness if the staff enough!!!

Great selection of whiskey and music was great.

Amazing staff. Very friendly and helpful. Relaxed atmosphere and tasty cocktails!

Lovely staff, great cocktails, cozy venue

Very welcoming staff, really good cocktails and a nice atmosphere. Lovely spot. Will be returning

Lovely, cozy little pub with live music. Big club chairs, fireplaces and candlelight all around. Take your favorite girl and snuggle up in the corner table. Heaven.

Vibrant cocktail bar in the heart of Stockbridge, Edinburgh 🍹🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Cheeky lads and splendid drinks

Such a cool place with an awesome creative drinks menu and really great service from knowledgeable staff.

The staff here is incredible. Nice and also complete experts. Awesome whisky selection

Great vibe and excellent drinks. Danny & Chuck are all-stars behind the bar. Highly recommend.

Fantastic whisky selection in Stockbridge area of Edinburgh. Staff were very professional. They even presented us with the bottles we were served with to give me and my friend a better understanding of drink options. Place has a great mood setting. With dim lighting and two lovely fireplaces with comfy seating infront of them. If you want a cosy place to snuggle up by a fireplace in a cold wintery night and read a book, then this the place to go.

Friendly and very attentive staff with a great knowledge of cocktails. The cocktails were very tasty as well. Definitely worth a look if you fancy a cocktail in the Stockbridge area

Really fun bar - entertaining staff and good drinks.

Had a great evening sampling the array of cocktails available at this fine establishment. Staff were extremely friendly and happy to explain the menu and to offer recommendations. 100% recommend if you're looking for an enjoyable cocktail with a date or a good few friends.

Aquí puedes elegir un whisky de su larga carta y disfrutarlo en un sillón ovejero con los pies sobre la cálida chimenea. Fantástico!. Buena oferta de cocktails y ambiente tranquilo

Food, drinkies and service was all great

So cosy. A hidden gem and staff were incredibly kind and helpful!

One of the nicest bars in Edinburgh. We've been fans for years, and were delighted to return on our recent trip. Very comfortable surroundings, excellent selection of drinks, great staff and stand up comedy playing in the toilets is a cute touch. Will definitely return on every visit to the city!

The nicest spot in Edinburgh, if you’d like a classy but cosy feel. Great service and drinks, always.

Nice and friendly staff. I liked the cocktail list. Did I mention that the staff were helpful and friendly?

Cosy and warm atmosphere, friendly staff and amazing cocktails!

Absolutely charming atmosphere, deletions and authentic drinks, and amazing staff. Highly recommended!

Fantastic cocktails and the staff were great. They really knew everything and were great at suggesting drinks for our own preference. The confessional toilets are interesting as is the comedy show recordings. Will definitely be returning and bringing friends!

A must visit bar when in Stockbridge!

Incroyables cocktails, bar très cosy et intimiste, staff au top du top.

Stunning place for a cocktail and staff could not be any better. Highly recommend.

Great bar. Great cocktails. Very enjoyable evening in their company

Really cosy, candlelight for a touch of romantic atmosphere, super friendly and welcoming staff AND really impressive cocktails - it's worth it to try them all Cheers!

Great cocktails, ambience, and a very attentive service.

Great place, yummy cocktails and the kindest service in all of their sister bars. Had the Breakeven Bottle with a Highland Rouge.

My Favourite cocktail bar without a doubt. Lovely atmosphere and unpretentious. A cosy fireplace is always a nice touch.

We had such a lovely evening at Last Word Saloon. We enjoyed every cocktail and were really impressed with the selection of spirits and the service. Highly recommended!

The old fashioned I had was insane!

Jay and Ben were absolutely incredible tonight. So so friendly and helpful. Excellent vibes, cozy atmosphere and insanely tasty cocktails– literally we must have tried every one on the menu and they were all delicious. Thank you.

Perfect atmosphere, great cocktails

Friendly service, fireplace : cosy and intimate

The last word you'll say: gimme more Nice bartenders, good drinks

So cosy and relaxed. Amazing cocktails and helpful staff. Nice spot for a date. It's just great, one of my favourite places for a nice quiet drink.

One of the most unique menus in New Town.

Really nice, cozy spot in Edinburgh. Very relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. Delicious drinks - we had an Old Fashioned & the Honeydew and both were fantastic. Definitely worth a trip!

Good drinks, cozy bar, nice staff.

Fantastic service. Amazing drinks. Perfect atmosphere

Astonishing experience. Amazing staff = great night

Fab candlelit basement bar with wide selection of cocktails, beer and spirits. We stopped for a drink today whilst passing by. Wish we had more time. The Bartender was friendly and our cocktails were lovely. We were lucky to have sat by the fireplace on a very cold day.

Great service great atmosphere. A must for whisky lovers. Great art work as well thank you marion and becky

Best bar in Edinburgh. The optic Old Fashioneds are a dream, as is the cosy candlelit interior and super-friendly staff. Great location too, off the main tourist drag in a lovely corner of Edinburgh. Great cocktail menu with beers and wines too, so there's something for everyone. Faultless.

Great Bar. Table service cocktails with good atmosphere and (at least tonight,) great music.

Visited here for after dinner drinks. Really welcoming environment, laid back with a cool vibe. The staff were great and there was a fantastic selection of drinks on offer. Well worth a visit if you are in Stockbridge or The New Town.

Awesome spot with an even cooler vibe. From America and would suggest it to any tourist for a more local vibe with awesome whiskey selection

Tasty, creative and very reasonably priced cocktails matched only by the excellence of the service.
