Pickering's Gin Bar at Summerhall Edinburgh Fringe

Whether you’re pre-show, post-show, or simply just thirsty — we’ve got the perfect Fringe pit stop waiting for you. The Pickering’s Gin Bar is back at Summerhall for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, serving up fresh G&Ts, summer-ready cocktails, and plenty of good vibes.  

Ellen and Michaela are holding up a large Pickering's Gin Bar sign outside the distillery.

Where is Pickering's Gin Bar?

Head through Summerhall’s main reception and into the courtyard — we’re just to the left of the Royal Dick Pub. Follow the signs for Pickering’s Gin Bar or the Demonstration Room, and you'll soon spot us. Trust us, with all the Pickering’s Gin branding, you really can’t miss it.

What drinks are you serving?

Naturally, it’s all about the gin. We’re pouring G&Ts using our full core range, including a brand new pink gin (yes, it’s as delicious as it sounds).

And if you’re in the mood for something a little fancier, check out our cocktail list:

  • Paloma Slushie – pink grapefruit meets gin in frozen heaven
  • Negroni – the classic, bold and bitter
  • Basil Yuzu Smash – bright, sweet, and zesty
  • Meadows Sling – floral, fragrant, and festival-ready

Games and good times

Stick around and get stuck into a game of Pickering’s Gin Jenga or challenge your pals to Cornhole while you sip. It’s the perfect way to wind down, rev up, or pass the time between shows.  


See You at the Bar

Whether you’re soaking up the sunshine or sheltering from a sudden downpour (it is Edinburgh after all), we’ll be here slinging cocktails and spreading Fringe cheer.

Come say hello — we’ll save you a seat and a G&T.

P.S. We have our Speakeasy Experience running as part of the Fringe Festival. To find out more click here
