This has always been one of my faves to visit during the festival, recently visited outside of this busy time and still such a welcoming place, with a great team and energy

Launch event for Out of Sight Out of Mind exhibition. Busy but well organised. Definitely worth a visit. Nice cafe open during the day.

An absolute must do experience! Marina our hostess was knowledgeable, friendly and witty with a wealth of experience in the making of Gin. We made three cocktails paired with 6 delicious cheeses crackers and bread. A great day out with friends. Definitely recommend and I’ll be booking again!

Summer hall is an excellent multispace arts venue. The two on side bars serve a great selection of food and drinks. Over multiple visits to see bands, movies, arts installations, festival events, and private events, It is always more than fulfilled whatever was needed of it.

My favourite artsy vibe for the Ed fringe by far. Loved the lecture theatre venue for two shows; great acoustics and atmosphere. Welcoming staff who gave very clear directions when time was tight between shows.

Student venue. Decent space(lecture theatre) for Edinburgh Festival show, with good facilities. Especially recommend Bross for amazing fresh bagels. Saw John Hegley's show which, 33 years after buying his book of poetry "Glad to Wear Glasses", and probably longer that he's played the Fringe, did not disappoint. What a delightful performance from an equally lovely man. Can't think of a better way to spend an hour than to wallow in Mr Hegley's wordsmithing. Thank you John and thank you Summerhall.

Best fringe theatre due to curated selection. Lovely atmosphere in the old vets college, massive, relaxed cafe, great art throughout venue and lovely courtyard setting for outdoor drinks and food. Try the gin, they make their own.

Fantastic place for gigs, rehearsal, drinks food... you name it. All the different spaces allow massive versatility in finding the right ambience for the right gig. The building itself is well worth visiting just to take in the grandeur of the old vet school and the free art exhibitions that run.
