Bains Retro Sweets

It’s just 15 minutes from Edinburgh Waverley station in the popular Grassmarket area.

Colourful jars on display. Seeing them measured into a little paper bag. The delicious sugar at the bottom of the bag when the sweets are finished. This is the real thing.

The staff know their humbugs from their lemon bon bons and will help you choose your favourites. They might even share their famous tablet recipe with you if you ask nicely.
