Frankenstein
About the Business
Welcome to Frankenstein, a one-of-a-kind institution located at 26 George IV Bridge, in the heart of Edinburgh's historic Old Town. Our unique venue combines the best of a bar, restaurant, and nightclub, making it the perfect spot for a night out with friends or a romantic dinner for two.
Step inside and you'll be transported to a world of Gothic charm, with dimly lit rooms, exposed brick walls, and an atmosphere that's equal parts spooky and inviting. Our team of expert mixologists is on hand to whip up a wide variety of creative cocktails, from classic favorites to new and innovative concoctions. We also serve up a range of beers, spirits, and wines, so you're sure to find something that fits your taste.
If you're feeling peckish, our kitchen is open late and serves up a menu of delicious, hearty pub favorites. Whether you're in the mood for a classic burger and fries, a savory bowl of pasta, or something a bit more adventurous like haggis fritters, we have something for everyone.
Once you've satisfied your hunger and quenched your thirst, hit the dancefloor and let loose at our nightclub. Our resident DJs play an eclectic mix of music, from classic rock to modern pop hits, so there's always something to get your feet moving.
Frankenstein is more than just a great night out, it's also a historic point of interest. Our building dates back to the 19th century and was once home to a medical school. In fact, we take our name from the famous novel by Mary Shelley, which was inspired by the work of a pioneering Edinburgh doctor named Robert Knox.
So whether you're a local looking for a new spot to hang out, or a visitor to Edinburgh seeking a unique and memorable experience, look no further than Frankenstein. We can't wait to welcome you to our institution.

Reviews
"This pub is a must for vintage horror fans. The old church makes a great venue and the decor and short monster show are just cool. Fun to have the old movies playing while eating and drinking. The food and drinks are good and the staff are friendly and really busy on the weekend."
"Had a wonderful, wonderful, marvellous time. We went on a Sunday for Karaoke. The host was awesome, kept the morale up and super friendly. The music was A+ and the service was amazing. Our bartender was Cameron and he hugely contributed to our night there being great. I will definitely be going back whenever I'm in Edinburgh"
"So if you want a different pub experience this is it!! Decorated in all things Frankenstein and horror, set over 3 levels, each different and unique. It makes for a great atmosphere to have a drink in. A good drinks menu, but they were short of a couple of items and couldn’t make the cocktails we asked for. It’s worth being around for 11pm when the bell tolls and Frankenstein is brought alive and descends from above the bar in his basket! Definitely worth a visit for something different!"
"This is an amazing horror themed bar on three levels. With the lighting effects and decor it has a really good atmosphere. Only problem we had was the DJ who emptied the place when he started doing his own karaoke"
"Fantastic !! 3 level bar serving a good selection of drinks.in a converted church. Tried the pizza for lunch and it was one of the best I've ever had! Staff member was friendly and efficient.. really enjoyed our time here... watch out for the spooky display!. Will definitely be back..."
