Drink in the Haunted Vaults

Skip the overpriced, theatrical ghost tours that crowd the Royal Mile. If you want to experience Edinburgh’s legendary, spooky underground vaults without the tourist trap vibes, head straight to The Banshee Labyrinth. Half of this unique pub is carved directly into the infamous, haunted South Bridge Vaults.

Inside, you can wander through dark, stone-walled chambers, enjoy a local craft beer or Scotch whisky, and even watch a movie in their free, underground micro-cinema. It offers the exact same eerie, subterranean atmosphere as the paid tours, but with the added bonus of a drink in hand and zero ticket fees.
