Deacon Brodie's Tavern

Deacon Brodie was the inspiration for Robert Louis Stevenson's Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. One of Edinburgh's most infamous figures, he led a moralistic, model citizen lifestyle by day and at night put on a mask and robbed the fine people of Edinburgh. When he was caught he was hung using gallows, which he had been designing a replacement for! Proof that what goes around comes around. The pub itself is very popular with tourists and is a great place for food as well as a drink.
