Frankensteins is always a 'last resort' type of place - where you go when every where else is too full or the queues too long. \n\nDuring the day, Frankenstiens poses as a gothic, Mary Shelly themed restaurant serving a range of basic and rather bland meals to students and tourists who fell for the Frankenstien gimmick. Student however, do have an excuse, this place is cheap - really cheap. \n\nIn the evenings, Frankensteins embraces the dark and becomes a bar. This really isnt a good thing, for while the gothic theme lends itself better to a bar than a restaurant, the atmosphere is still pretty dreadful and the whole thing feels like Frankenstein going for a jog - uncomfortable, dragging and groaning.  \n\nI dont like Frankenstiens that much, but it remains a faithful back up if the hundreds of other bars in Edinburgh close.
