BrewDog Edinburgh

About this place BrewDog Edinburgh

BrewDog's Cowgate bar in Edinburgh is not an LGBTQ+-specific venue, but it has built a strong queer-friendly reputation through a combination of inclusive staff culture, regular LGBTQ+ events, and its location in the Cowgate — Edinburgh's nightlife corridor that runs below the Royal Mile and attracts a creative, mixed crowd. The bar runs craft beer with the range and quality that the BrewDog chain is known for, and the Cowgate venue in particular has been adopted by elements of Edinburgh's queer community as a daytime and early-evening space that bridges the gap between the Old Town tourist circuit and the specific Pink Triangle scene. For LGBTQ+ visitors to Edinburgh who want good beer, a lively atmosphere, and the assurance of being in a welcoming space without needing to go to the Pink Triangle specifically, BrewDog Cowgate is a reliable option.
