The Safari Lounge in Leith

Ah, The Safari Lounge – what a gem tucked away in Abbeyhill, Edinburgh. I've got to say, it's one of those places that really hits the mark for a relaxed evening out. The food is where it shines brightest; folks are going on about the superb tacos and divine fish and chips, and from what I've heard, it's all so fresh and tasty that you'd never guess it's from what looks like a fun bar at first glance. Pair that with the super welcoming vibe and top-notch staff who are always polite and ready to make your visit memorable, and you've got yourself a spot that's ideal for everything from a casual drink to hosting a get-together with live music or comedy nights. On the flip side, though, it's not without its downsides – the prices can feel a touch high, especially if you're watching the pennies, and when it gets packed, which it often does, the service might not be as snappy as you'd hope, leaving you twiddling your thumbs a bit. Still, overall, it's a solid choice for pub goers looking for a good time; just plan ahead if you want to avoid the crowds and maybe save it for when you're in the mood to splash out a little. I'd say give it a go – you might just find your new favourite haunt!
