A New Bar for Edinburgh - a Great bar, cool vibe and friendly staff, with a big range of drinks and a full programme of Fringe shows every Day. The venue is close to other Free Festival venues, and right next the Kings Theatre, with a cosy performance space on the ground floor that is wheelchair accessible.



The Wildcat Bar is a new and fully refurbished bar in Edinburgh, before this year being an old bar named Burlington Berties. It is a small and cost bar and performance space, well known for actors as a bar where casts from the Kings Theatre over the road will have a drink.

It's located close to our other venues at The Raging Bull and Golf Tavern, close to the Cameo cinema and just off a popular street of shops and activity, an area growing in popularity with Fringe shows every year.

The space is on the ground floor, so the whole bar is wheelchair accessible.
