Brass Monkey, Drummond St, Edinburgh – Review

The cinema room in Brass Monkey

Situated just off Nicolson Street in the Old Town quarter of Edinburgh, Brass Monkey offers a welcoming alternative to the conventional bar. Soup, sandwich and a pint for a fiver adds a certain lunchtime allure, whilst bottles of wine under ten pounds make the venue an affordable option. Its true appeal, however, lies in its side room: featuring its own little cinema lined with an array of cult film posters and decked out with cushions forming what is essentially a giant bed, customers are invited to watch films which are played everyday at 3pm; and the best part – it’s free.
