Colin and Theo are absolutely fantastic whether it’s busy or not they’ll make you feel like you’re at home. Great drinks at great prices!!! Honestly for all my gays this is a slay
Beware! At a certain time of night The Street is run like an exclusive club for regulars and friends of the bar only. Unknown faces can be abruptly asked to leave when it gets busy. The female bouncer in particular has a disturbing code of conduct and is known to single out "new faces". I've seen this mentioned in a few other reviews here and felt I had to share my own experience as well.
Great bartenders but the most pretentious, unfriendly clientele I have experienced in a long time. People in tweed suits and designer jackets looked us up and down the moment we walked in over their semi-lunar glasses. Really uncomfortable and unpleasant. Downstairs is a bit more fun.
Great, friendly service. Little burger menu and some continue till midnight bites. Good chilled music. Had an unusual crab and lobster Burger. Good price for the area it is in. Drinks my be expensive but there is higher around. Nice atmosphere and lovely little place.
This was a decent bar at one point. Not anymore. After a certain time they start to openly discriminate, if your face does not fit they stop serving you for any obscure reason they can come up with. This has sadly become a place to avoid if you don’t fit their profiling policy you will be treated in a negative manner. This is what they want Edinburgh to be a lovely safe shortbread tin for tourists to spend their money.
This is a good to have a couple of drinks in a relaxed, young environment. The halloumi fries and the nachos are good.
Great atmosphere, live music and decently priced. Only gripe is that it can get a little too crowded.
I’ve frequented this bar over many years, music was always great and always had a great night l, but I witnessed a female bouncer on Saturday evening use awful language to a group of girls wanting to get into the bar. This female bouncer with glasses was a power trip and called the girls stupid then proceeded to mock and make fun of them. For this reason I will not be going back as I was disgusted with this behaviour. This person needs to sacked ASAP before she ruins The Street. No need for this behaviour at all… management get it sorted
Smart bar, popular with a gay crowd but none of that waspish attitude that plagues the scene. It was a quiet Sunday when I visited but the atmosphere was good and staff friendly. Will definitely return!
Super friendly, great drinks, dogs welcome. We had a blast - thank you!
