The Last Drop Tavern

Directions Website

The Last Drop Tavern The Last Drop Tavern is situated in the heart of the Grassmarket, in the City of Edinburgh, Scotland
(2074)

Nestled in the heart of Edinburgh's historic Grassmarket, The Last Drop is a charming restaurant with a dark and intriguing past. Once a bustling marketplace for farmers, this venue also housed the city's main gallows during the 18th century. Legend has it that The Last Drop was where condemned men enjoyed their final meal before facing the gallows across the road. Aptly named after the last hanging in 1864, this restaurant draws crowds for its warm hospitality and delectable menu of enticing food and drinks. Step inside and experience a taste of history, without the macabre undertones. With its prime location, The Last Drop offers views of the Grassmarket, making it the perfect spot for after-work drinks or a memorable dining experience. And for those looking for some entertainment, live music is available on Thursdays and Sundays. Whether you're a history enthusiast or simply seeking a unique dining experience, The Last Drop is sure to leave a lasting impression.
