“ One of the very best cocktail bars! The rat pack needs to be a chain across the UK. Such a variety in choices to drink from. I'm not a big cocktail drinker, however the cocktails from the sweets category were so delicious, I could happily drink these all night (I certainly made my way down the available sweetie cocktails they had to offer! Drumstick cocktail being my favorite) The prices wasn't bad at all and the atmosphere was lovely, a truly traditional jazz bar. Definitely would go back here when we visit Edinburgh again. You certainly will have an amazing night out at the Rat Pack. Thank you to the amazing work from the team that bring this bar to the highest of standards! ”
