The Canons' Gait sits at the Canongate foot of Edinburgh's Royal Mile, a few steps from Holyrood Palace and the Scottish Parliament. The 18th-century building runs a modern upstairs lounge bar over a cellar bar that has long been the live-music room: traditional and contemporary folk plays Wednesday through Saturday, and the long-running 'Out of the Bedroom' songwriters' night gathers musicians and regulars in the basement on Thursdays to play original material and listen. The cellar is a busy Free Fringe comedy and music venue every August, packing the room most nights of the Edinburgh Festival. Part of the Old Town Pub Co. group.
