Craft & making · Edinburgh

MNB curate rather than just fill tables, so the 25 makers here are genuinely worth a browse — jewellery, ceramics, textiles and homeware from people who'll happily talk you through how they made it. The Drill Hall itself is fully accessible with a tram stop five minutes away, and there's a Sensory Hour from 10–11am with no music or flashing lights for anyone who'd rather shop somewhere calmer.
Pet-friendly too, and the Drill Hall Café is worth lingering in afterwards for the atmosphere as much as the coffee.
