Dragonfly changed hands in March 2018 – expect changes to this quirky and affordable Grassmarket cocktail bar.

The 2019/20 edition of The List's Eating & Drinking Guide is out now – only £5.95 (+p&p).
Recently taken over by two loyal customers, the Grassmarket's answer to a funky cocktail bar is finally receiving a long over-due makeover. That's great news, because the current set-up feels a far cry from the days when it was one of Edinburgh’s top drinking spots. Still the mezzanine, furnished with black leather sofas, appeals to first daters hoping to scooch up, while a large side room is ideal for private parties and proves popular with university societies. Untouched for over ten years, Dragonfly aims to remain appealing to the nearby art student crowd. But expect changes to the building's fabric and a more event-based diary including live entertainment, as well as pop-up street food kitchen takeovers. Watch this space!
