St Stephen Street in Stockbridge has a concentration of antique dealers, independent shops, and the kind of slightly scruffy bohemian charm that Edinburgh's gentrification is slowly eroding elsewhere. The Antiquary is a basement pub on the street — wood-panelled, slightly dark, with a long bar and the feel of a place that has been there a long time. The ale selection is good and rotates through Scottish independents; the whisky list is serious. It is a proper pub for drinking and conversation rather than eating and photographing, which counts for something.
