A cocktail-loving tiki den with a breathtaking selection of rums.

The 2019/20 edition of The List's Eating & Drinking Guide is out now – only £5.95 (+p&p).

Now firmly established near the Grassmarket after a move from Melville Place in 2017, the new 52 Canoes fully embraces its tiki bar theme. The word ‘aloha’ printed on the window welcomes guests into a bar decked out like a grass-roofed Hawaiian hut and the interior is bright and fun. The lengthy cocktail list only touches upon the range of drinks the staff will serve up if you ask them; with 150 rums, 22 gins and the rest of the back bar there are plenty of options. Food is simple and plentiful and they're planning a series of world-themed monthly street food menus for the warmer months.
