Luxury Edinburgh city centre hotel gets fancy new pop-up cocktail bar

Cocktail fans will be celebrating the arrival of a beautiful new pop-up bar at one of Edinburgh's most popular luxury hotels.

Last month, we brought you news the much-loved cafe and wine bar Mayvn was to be replaced by another operator at plush capital accommodation Eden Locke.

Customers were left devastated by the move, with the Common Coffee roastery team behind the cafe thanking locals for their support.

However, in its place comes a new pop-up that is serving cocktails, natural wine, craft beer and speciality coffee during the day.

Duck pop-up, which will be in place at the stunning George Street hotel until mid-September, comes with quite the reputation having appeared at various venues across Glasgow - to much success.

Duck, which stands for Drunk Unicorn Cocktail Club, announced earlier this week: "We're now set up and serving in our new Edinburgh digs at @lockehotels.

"We'll be running a pop-up bar here until mid-September.

"Serving specialty coffee and tea every day from 8.30am-3pm featuring @thomsonscoffee and @bareboneschocolate.

"Then we'll have cocktails, natural wine from @madefromgrapesgla / @sevslo, and craft beer from @overtonebrewing Wed -Sun 4pm-11pm."

And on their Eden Locke menu, the Duck team say: "Our goal is to make creative delicious cocktails more accessible, and have fun doing it", adding: "For us that means a descriptive menu, an un-intimidating and bright venue, warm and casual service, and a genuine desire for all our guests to have a great time and enjoy every drink. No showing off, no pretentious bullsh*t, just fun."

"Our public pop-ups normally run all over Glasgow, primarily in all the best coffee shops. You can also hire us for weddings, fancy corporate stuff or even big conferences.

"Your drinks are pre-batched to maximise speed of service and improve quality control. This means we cannot make anything off menu or alter any of the ingredients. We’ll also sell out of some cocktails."

A very exciting one to try out this summer!
