But the trendy boozer is set to be no more after bosses announced it will be closing down.
They revealed they would be shutting up shop in weeks, announcing their final day will be on May 17.
A message was posted to their official social media thanking those who had visited over the years.
Their statement on Facebook read: “After many wonderful years, The Barologist in Leith will close its doors on 17.05.2025.
“It’s been an incredible journey serving the people of Leith and the wider Edinburgh community — thank you for all the memories, support, and good times!”
And punters were quick to respond to the bad news, thanking them for their service over the years.
One said: “Thank you all for making me feel like one of the family. I wish you all the best for the next chapter in their working life.
“You are all fantastic and I will miss you.”
A second person replied: “It’ll not be the same without you.”
Another wrote: “I’m totally gutted.”
But it wasn’t all bad news for the cocktail bar, as they announced a new one would be opening up down south.
The bar’s owners announced a new Barologist will be opening up in Harrogate, North Yorkshire.
And they will still be stopping around the country as they take their drinks on tour.
Their post continued: “We’re thrilled to announce that a brand new Barologist is opening in Harrogate!
“Stay tuned to see our journey as we take on a new venue.
“You can still catch us on the move with The Barologist on Tour, bringing our cocktails to events and venues across the country.”
