THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAIL
Tucked away on Advocate’s Close, The Devil’s Advocate is a rare secret sitting just off the city’s more well-trodden tourist paths.
Our soft amber lighting and stone walls invite you in from the historic Old Town. Inside, you’ll find hundreds of whiskies, innovative cocktails, and comforting seasonal Scottish dishes – all crafted with the kind of care we bring to everything we do. We like to think it’s the sort of place you stumble upon once…and return to forever.
WHAT'S COOKING
Our wickedly indulgent Old Town restaurant celebrates the best of Scotland, with an ever-changing menu built around expertly curated seasonal produce. Whether you’re joining us for a light bite, lunch, or dinner, every dish is crafted to be a cut above. Full of character, flavour, and a touch of the unexpected.
RAISE
A GLASS
We have an extensive collection of over 300 of the finest Scottish and world whiskies, offering something for everyone. If whisky’s not your thing, our award-winning bartenders have created a catalogue of inventive and delicious cocktails, a thoughtfully curated wine list, a diverse range of tempting craft beers, and a huge selection of low and no-alcohol serves so everyone can raise a glass.
