The Big Blue
445 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8HH
The River Kelvin is admittedly no Mediterranean. But as far as pleasant waterside spots for dining in Glasgow go, the Big Blue has one of the best of the bunch. It's a boon, especially on those warm, sunny days when tables and chairs are set out the…

Browns Restaurant and Bar
131–133 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JS

Cornerstone Café
St John's Church, 3 Lothian Road,
Edinburgh,

Magda
6 Brougham Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9UH
Sparsely decorated and modestly furnished, Magda relies on a large poster of a map of Africa on one wall and the evocative sketch of a dhow inside the menus to set the scene. It could be a place for the adventurous eater to take a less adventurous…
Mancini
315–317 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9HR
Located closer to the St George's Cross end of Great Western Road, Mancini is a bit away from the hub of the West End. This intimate place feels a little like a well-lit wine cellar with bare brick walls (hung in places with fairly lights), leather…

The Stair Arms Hotel
Pathhead,
Midlothian,

Urban Angel
121 Hanover Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DJ
More urbane than urban, this bustling Hanover Street basement is an ever-popular choice, and it's easy to see why. With simple prints on the white walls, solid pine furniture and flock-printed menus, the aesthetic lends the restaurant a cool…
