  • What to do in Edinburgh for a geek / otaku ? I'am going to edinburgh soon, and if you have some adresses.

Thanks and regards Bussiere

  • Answer:

    Welcome to Auld Reekie! For a comic shop, go to http://www.deadheadcomics.com/deadhead1/ on Candlemaker Row, which is smack in the city centre. You'll also find lots of bookshops with secondhand books in that area if you come out of the comic shop, then wander down the hill, through the Grassmarket and head towards Lothian Road via Bread Street. (You'll also encounter a few strip joints but don't let that put you off, there are some great shops in this area!)

Also, http://home.btconnect.com/Transreal/ is just down the hill from Deadhead Comics and http://www.qype.co.uk/place/73146-Forbidden-Planet-Edinburgh is also nearby. Club-wise, in the same area you might want to go to http://www.thecabaretvoltaire.com/.

Cutie House is a small shop on Cockburn Street (uphill from one of the bridges) that sells imported merchandise of Hello Kitty, Pokemon, Moomin and similar things. A friend of mine who likes things like that got a neat Totoro shaped backpack for about £20
