About Home Bar
Home Bar is a grassroots music venue in Edinburgh, Edinburgh with a standing capacity of approximately 70. PA system and vocal mics are provided; bring your own instruments and amps.
Home Bar books Folk, Acoustic acts. Both original music and covers are welcome. This listing is part of the Edinburgh venue directory.
Home Bar is a relaxed neighbourhood bar at 69 Home Street in Edinburgh's Tollcross (EH3 9JP), open seven days until late. It runs a packed live-music week: a Wednesday folk drop-in session at 8pm, a Thursday open-mic night at 9pm and live music every Friday from 7–9pm, plus a Monday quiz with cash prizes. There's a downstairs private function suite that holds 70-plus people, and a pop-up Sando kitchen serving Japanese-inspired food Thursday to Monday. It's an intimate, folk-and-acoustic-leaning room rather than a ticketed band venue — a friendly grassroots stop for singer-songwriters and trad-session players.
