Edit of my earlier review - something has changed at Beer Zoo... Hence the reduction from 5 Stars to 3 Stars. I really want to like this place. I really do. Every time I return to the shop I enter with a fresh attitude of "it will be different this time..." But still - every time - surly, uninterested staff who would rather fiddle about on a computer and pay more attention to the music playlist than say hello to customers. In fact, the only interaction was a grumpy, "10 pound mate". Not even a 'thank you' emanated from underneath the brim of his hat. Secondly - I love beer. Hey! I even brew my own beer! Cheers! But seriously, seriously, the prices in this shop have rocketed. I know, I know, duties, imports, etc, I hear you! I know! But really? Some of the pricing is way out of whack when comparing to other retailers. So, dear reader, should you make the trip to Beer Zoo? I still think so. Give it a try. See what you think. Were the staff welcoming, cheery and looking to chat beer? You might find something special from a brewery you've only ever read about in hipster/crusty online beer forums and at a reasonable price. I however, am losing faith. I tend not to visit any other zoos, and I think I may have to extend that rule to include this beery one... Shame.

Best Beershop in Edinburgh. I tried them all before this landed on my doorstep. The beer shops in town aren't this well stocked, half the shop is fridge! knowledgable, friendly staff.

One of the best beer shops I've ever been to. The owner really knows his stuff and is always keen to help you with your selection.

Small specialist beer place with superb range including lots of chilled beer. Serious beer drinkers love this place. And those wanting something a bit special. Well worth a visit.

This specialist shop boasts the best range of craft beer certainly in Portobello and one of the top spots to buy in Edinburgh. The service is excellent and they practice good Covid-19 procedures. It's a very narrow shop so often cluttered with boxes 📦 from deliveries, its probably got a high stock turnover, so this can only be a good sign 😀. They sell wine, spirits and some other goods.

Not many places like this dedicated to a quality line of craft brews. Even if you're looking for something less niche, they have an excellent variety of quality German and Belgian brews in stock. Everything is easily listed and the guys in the shop will always be more than happy to have a chat and work out what might be best to pick up. The place is worth every beer drinkers time.

One of the best run bottle shops in the UK. The guy running the place knows his stuff and is able to help you find exactly what you're looking for. Always friendly and welcoming which makes a massive difference in such a specialist store.

I've visited twice, and the man who works there is very friendly, expert, and very helpful. I have tried the guest draught beer both times and bought it once. This sets the shop apart from other beer shops. Great choice of drinks.

L. M.

Beer. So much choice I'm still on the first fridge!

C. H.

Ordered online. Great prices, great selection, cheap postage and arrived very quickly. Ordered some 750s that came in special air pocket sleeves. Very impressed all round. Will be ordering again.

A. H.

So much choice in craft beers. I chose Mexican Cake stout beer and a Jalapeño ale. Had the stout and the taste was a combination of chiles, chocolate, cinnamon. Just like the sauces I used 2 make in Mexican food. Amazing place. Go there to get your taste buds going.
