When Cold Town Beer decided to turn their brewing success into a buzzing hospitality venture, they brought something truly distinctive to Edinburgh’s historic Grassmarket—Cold Town House. As part of the ever-evolving Signature Group, this unique venue blends microbrewery vibes with city-centre energy, stunning rooftop views, and top-notch pizza.
Freak Design was commissioned to bring the Cold Town House identity to life across brand development, print materials, and a dynamic, user-friendly website. Built on WordPress, the site offers a simple and engaging user experience, making it easy to check menus, book a table, or explore the venue’s unique atmosphere. It’s a place—and a project—we’re proud to have helped launch with style.
