The Advocate |
This relatively new building (for the centre of Edinburgh) is home
to a large comfortable pub dividied into a number of discrete (and discreet!)
areas by a range of wooden screens, high backed seating and so on, much of
which seems to have had an earlier life in other pubs, now presumably long
gone.

The Advocate started life as the Fiscal & Firkin, before later
becoming the Fiscal and only more recently has it been known as the Advocate,
following a makeover that gave the exterior a rather more sober appearance.
