The Black Bull is situated at the junction of Leith Street & Carlton Road. The pubs sit’s in a basement level and is very easy to miss. The pub advertises itself as Edinburgh’s original rock bar, with a Rock & Metal music style jukebox. The place sells up to 50 different blends of Bourbon.

The outside of this pub features, very briefly, in the opening scene of the film of "Trainspotting" (when they run down the steps outside it after shoplifting from the bookshop). Although it looks nice enough from outside, it's rather rough and run down looking inside. Judging by the customers and the music, it is obviously a favourite haunt of Heavy Metal fans. Despite being on the edge of the city centre, it seemed to be mainly populated by Edinburgh locals rather than tourists.
