Edinburgh public toilets

[atlgirl]

We will be coming into South Queensferry on HAL Sept 6 & 7.  Hubby is a photographer and has many stops planned along and around the Royal Mile.  Can anyone tell me if there are any public toilets in this area?  Would appreciate any info or suggestions.  Thanks.

The Supreme Courts behind St Giles Cathedral

Any of the museums on the Royal Mile

Any pub if you buy any drink there

Any café or restaurant that has seating (again, buy a coffee or more)

OP, you can 'customize' the listing and sell it to your fellow passengers.

To build on the suggestions above, it’s UK law that anywhere serving alcohol (to drink in, not takeaway) must have a toilet for customers. So all pubs, most cafes etc, is a good rule of thumb.

But by definition, these are not 'public toilets' - they have to be provided for the use of customers on the premises, not the wider public.

Thank you for all the info!!  Really looking forward to this trip!
