Come for good Scran, stay for good times at this Irish-American themed music bar, with free shows downstairs through the Fringe in the basement bar.



A show all about the highs and lows of fame, by a man with zero experience of it... Although, he was once recognised in his local fish and chip shop! Following a very successful debut of this show in 2024, Mark Row returns to Edinburgh with a show he refuses to stop performing until absolutely everyone knows who he is! Expect silliness, niche references and very big questions like: who is the worst famous person ever? What should you do if you encounter the paparazzi? And who on earth is Mark Row?

Mark Row: Don't You Know Who I Am?

A compilation show featuring four of the funniest comedians from across the Edinburgh Fringe! The line-ups are shuffled daily so you're always sure to get dealt the very best of all the jokers! Expect storytelling, one-liners and a little bit of naughtiness! Every show is different, so make sure you check out a Jokers in the Pack show! It's always loads of fun and you're guaranteed a great night's entertainment!

Jokers in the Pack

A true story about life through addiction to sobriety. From being young and dumb on the Glasgow gay scene, through homelessness on the streets of Barcelona, to being committed to a psych ward and then landing in recovery. It is a tragic, yet hilarious, true story about overcoming demons and finding the real meaning of what it takes to be happy.

Stutter Island by James Beckett (So You Think You're Funny and Laughing Horse New Act semi-finalist, Beat the Frog and Mr Bens Winner) explores navigating life as somebody with a stutter and his 12-year break from the comedy scene. Also featuring a guest appearance from another Fringe performer (changes each day)! ‘An engaging and memorable performance’ (RockCentralPromotions.com).

James Beckett: Stutter Island

Essex comedy veteran, Paul Merryck proudly presents his Edinburgh debut. A hilarious hour packed full of short gags and tall stories, that focuses on living life to the full as the clock ticks down to the great inevitable. Remember everything in moderation. Especially moderation. And the Grim Reaper can f*** right off somewhere else for a bit. Preferably Kent. 'The Essex bloke is something of a geezer gag-focused delivery…. high laugh rate…. you’d think that the spirit of Mike Reid is alive and well' (Chortle.co.uk).

Ambulance for One

Andrew Watts was gaining a reputation as a 'politely passionate, political, beautifully expressed and very funny' ***** (Chortle.co.uk) comedian, when he gave it all up to work for a Conservative MP. Now he’s back, with a show about spending the last five years nowhere near the thick of it. 'Lovers of stand-up laced with a cerebral cutting-edge should flock to his show' **** (ThreeWeeks). 'We are all very sad when his clever, personal and very funny hour comes to an end... An intelligent, grown up feminist show. With great jokes' **** (Scotsman).

Love Tory

Want an uplifting show about changing your life and starting again? Or want to watch a man root around in the ruins of a life not meant for him? Or maybe you want to watch him lose everything but have very funny stories to tell? Maybe you can have it all – unlike him... At least Andy has a sense of humour about it.
