Scotland’s First Coffee Bar

Dave Law and Tom Hyde, are expanding their coffee empire with the opening of Scotland’s first “coffee bar” – Brew Lab. The Edinburgh duo are challenging coffee’s reputation as a ‘daytime-only’ pursuit with the South Street bar now opening from 6pm – 9pm Wednesday through Sunday. It will offer everything from Nitro Cold Brew Martinis to local craft beers from Pilot and Scottish spirits from farm-to-bottle distiller, Arbikie. Food is also on the menu with IJ Mellis cheeses, and charcuterie from Leith-based East Coast Cured all available. Co-founder Tom Hyde said, “The creation and launch of our new late night offering demonstrates demand and the beginning of a change in Edinburgh’s coffee culture.”
