We are situated on all major bus routes which run down Leith Walk, with the 7,14,16,25 and 49 stopping directly outside our front door. If you’re driving, we have a big Tesco car park right behind the shop whihch allows for up to three hours parking. Please do be aware that the Tram is currently culminating service at Edinburgh West End due to ongoing issues, and so will not be serving the Foot of the Walk Tram stop.
