Ten Hill Place
10 Hill Place,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DS
Surrounded by academia and festival venues, Ten Hill Place is ideally placed for a great bistro. But hotel restaurants so often fail to shine, and whether or not Ten Hill Place rises above its peers depends on a major refurbishment which the owner, the…
Black Medicine Coffee Company
2 Nicolson Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DH
The big daddy of the Edinburgh caffeine scene stands out amongst its competition in the snack bar-heavy locale for its emphasis on fresh, decent food and, naturally, rather fabulous coffee. The ambience is warm and slightly eclectic: customers perch on…
Bar 50
50 Blackfriars Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1NE
Set inside a shiny modern hostel and marketing itself squarely at its backpacker residents and the students from the halls next door, Bar 50 is the kind of place it’s easy to walk past. While not exactly a hidden gem, its location and focus on cheap…
Café Lucia
Edinburgh Festival Theatre, 13/29 Nicolson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9FT
Situated on the bright, airy ground floor of Edinburgh’s popular Festival Theatre, Café Lucia is a decent pit stop for those seeking some respite from Southside shopping, a break from the office on their lunch hour, or a stop-off for local students on…
Metropole
33 Newington Road,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1QR
Taken over recently by the folks who make Canonmills’ Circle Café go round so nicely, the improvements at Metropole are clear. Always a pleasant, airy space, the mix and match floral crockery remains, as do the diner-style booths, though they’ve been…
Café Cassis
Salisbury Hotel, Salisbury Road,
Edinburgh,
EH16 5AA
Tucked under the Salisbury Hotel in the quieter reaches of Edinburgh’s southside, Café Cassis makes good use of its semi-basement situation. Beyond the tight entranceway, the interior is warmly lit, welcoming and relaxed, and backs onto a…
The Elephant House
21 George IV Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1EN
Perhaps hoping that diners will be distracted by its association with the boy wizard and his chums, the erstwhile haunt of JK Rowling appears to lavish more attention on its Potter-themed loos than it does on its food. While, admittedly, it has recently…
Valvona & Crolla Vincaffè
11 Multrees Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3DQ
Valvona & Crolla’s Vincaffe is only a short distance but several years away from the densely packed cornucopia of the family-run business’s original branch on Elm Row. With a bright, contemporary décor, evenly spaced, white dressed tables and a bank…
Café Nom de Plume
60 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3SA
Set upstairs from the Edinburgh LGBT Centre and owned by the same team behind the Regent pub, Café Nom de Plume is a gay and lesbian-friendly business and a relaxed hangout for all walks of Broughton life. The décor is a warm and welcoming jumble of…
Café Portrait
Scottish National Portrait Gallery, 1 Queen Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1JD
When Edinburgh's Portrait Gallery opened with new-found swagger and style, at the end of 2011, art fans had plenty to get their teeth into: a stunning, multi-million pound facelift with glorious works by Scottish greats like Henry Raeburn and…
Hard Rock Café
20 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2PF
Some restaurants are all about the expectation game. Launched in London over 40 years ago, the Hard Rock has since exported its rather cookie cutter approach all over the world, but should you go in expecting generous portions of decent, if rather…
The Pastures
24 Marchmont Crescent,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1HG
Sequestered among the tenements of Marchmont, this new small-scale venture is a local gem, serving homely comfort food in a bright and cheery setting at a tariff well suited to threadbare student pockets. They don’t back off on quality, though: poached…
Centotre
103 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3ES
Centotre manages to pull off a neat trick. Despite the austere, ex-bank interior, from those lost days when financial edifices were akin to cathedrals, it still manages to maintain a feeling of warmth and intimacy in the evenings or bright and breezy…
Bon Papillon
15 Howe Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6TE
It’s a tricky balancing act at Bon Papillon, but one its cheerful owners clearly relish. This café-cum-gallery-cum-framers, run by artist and chef Ingrid Nilsson and Stuart Allan, has an immediately welcoming vibe. Situated in the New Town, local, fresh…
Russian Passion
5 Canonmills,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5HA
It’s rare to find a restaurant in Scotland that opens up unexplored gastronomic worlds and where pretty much everything on the menu is a new experience. Russian Passion in Canonmills, a café and restaurant run by Maria Belyaeva and her chef Luba, is one…
Le Marché Français
9a West Maitland Street,
Edinburgh,
EH12 5DS
From the outside Le Marché Français looks like just another of the flurry of delis that have sprung up around Edinburgh lately. But delve beyond the cold cuts and cheese counter, past the wines and assorted French goodies and you arrive in a modest…
