Fine, small shop. A bit outside the beaten track. Fair selection of beers, mostly Scottish, some Americans and Germans. It is not a major store, but it feels well put together and is easy to browse. Will go here again.

Maybe my expectations were too high, but I was a bit disappointed concerning the supply of beers at Cornelius. But it is probably the best there is in Edinburgh, and I found enough Scottish bottled beers from BrewDog, Broughton, Black Isle, Traquair and other breweries to keep me busy for a couple of drinking days in Scottish capital, and to fill my suitcase for my home trip. Polite and helpful staff.

Good store. With a good selection of wines and whisky’s :). But also the better Scottish beers, well selected. Even some imports to get your countrystat up. Friendly staff. Would certainly go back if I have the chance.

Nice small bottleshop - loads of beer that I wanted to take, but I had to limit myself, since they were to be carried home in my check-in baggage. I’d like to visit again.

Nice shop with a good selection of scotish micros and wine, but not much microbeers from other countries.

What the others said (we visited during the RBESG 2007). Quite nice bottle shop, more wines and spirits than beers, but the beer selection is still fairly decent.

An excellent small bottle store with my favourite selection in Scotland (not that I’ve been in so many stores) meaning that they seem to get more rarities than peckham’s: brewdog imperial stouts, orkney dark island reserve, traquair 900 and cerveceria mexicana porter. Solid selection of scottish ales and very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable staff.

Great wee scottish bottle shop, on par with the large glasgow pechams. Good selection of unusual hard to get beers including cantillon and black isle. A must if bottle hunting in edinbrugh.

This is one of the few half decent beer shops in edinburgh. The owner is real friendly and helpfull. Stock changes reasonably frequently. With lots of scottish Micros, mostly standard foreigns with some semi unusual and a some other Brittish beers. ID LIKE TO STRESS THAT THE RANGE CAN VASTLY VARY DEPENING ON VISIT. STOCK DOES TURN OVER WELL ... AND DESPITE BEING MY REGULAR SHOP I PICK UP AT LEAST 1 NEW RATE PER VISIT
