I’ve already reviewed the fantastically bizarre Adeel’s on Easter Road, so I was delighted to find another one in Leith, although this one seems to be Easter Road’s bigger, more mature brother. For a start, the whole shop looks more sleek, less like a jumble sale. It sells mainly electrical goods and computer hardware, so it would be a handy place to take your laptop if you were experiencing problems. They also do mobile phone repairs and all that unblocking and locking Sim nonsense that I have no idea about. As well as that, you can buy sims and phone covers, and they sell cool Blackberry covers which are sometimes hard to come by elsewhere, for good prices. Ideal if you need some technological help, which I usually do!

Another cracking little outlet on my favourite street in the whole city, Adeel’s is one of those electronic stores that does pretty much everything, including services that appear to be of dubious legality such as phone unlocking. Filled with bits and bobs from computer hard drives to obscure mobile phone accessories, it’s a charmingly shifty store and the kind of place that becomes a godsend when your archaic old computer breaks down again.
