About this space

The Cellar is a Function Room in Frankenstein's Edinburgh, a low‑ceilinged beer‑keller style private room that emphasises a compact, cellar‑like character.

Design: The room pairs heavy timber trestle tables and benches with exposed stone flooring and low, beamed ceilings. Gothic decorative details and warm amber lighting create an enclosed, intimate cellar feel.

Features: The room includes Wi‑Fi, air conditioning and a built‑in PA system with speakers. Long wooden trestle tables and benches furnish the space and leave a cleared central area for standing or movement. Guests may supply their own DJ or play their own music through the house system.

Ideal for: Groups seeking a relaxed, social communal dining or standing reception format in a compact, theatrical cellar setting.

What sets it apart: The space hosts a short, hourly Frankenstein appearance as part of the venue's themed entertainment.

What guests say: The space has a distinctive gothic theme and lively, theatrical atmosphere. The space has well-regarded cocktails and energetic music during visits.
