Abstract
33/35 Castle Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2EL
It's important to set aside an entire evening for a visit to Abstract: a quick bite before curtain up at one of the nearby theatres would be doing it a great injustice. There's just so much vying for your attention here, from the mirrored pillars and…
La Bagatelle
22a Brougham Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9JU
La Bagatelle is a fine example of the popular local bistro. The décor is muted and homely, the walls adorned with paintings and sketches by regular customers, and co-owner Karen Perschke wanders from table to table chatting to her loyal clientèle. This…
B'est
16 Drummond Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9TX
B'est may only have been up and running for less than two years, but it's already a popular venture, attracting lively parties as well as courting couples with its cheap dining offers. Set menus include a three-course dinner for £14.90 and a two-course…
Café Marlayne
7 Old Fishmarket Close, 190 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1RW
Both restaurants share the same name, have interchangeable chefs and waiting staff and almost identical menus of gusty, well-flavoured French, no-fuss food with a Scottish twist, but offer quite different atmospheres. The Old Town café is a charming…
Café Marlayne
76 Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EN
Both restaurants share the same name, have interchangeable chefs and waiting staff and almost identical menus of gusty, well-flavoured French, no-fuss food with a Scottish twist, but offer quite different atmospheres. The Old Town café is a charming…
Café Rouge
43 Frederick Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EP
The name conjures up a cosy bistro on La Rive Gauche. Yet, while the chansons belt forth from the stereo and the menu features a handful of familiar regional specialities such as boeuf bourguignon, there's nothing particularly intimate about Café Rouge.
Le Café St Honoré
34 North West Thistle Street Lane,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EA
At the beginning of April 2008, just as this guide was going to press, Le Café St Honoré was passed from the hands of Chris and Gill Colverson, proprietors for the past 15 years and more, to Andrew Radford and Neil Forbes of Atrium and blue restaurants.
Chez Pierre
18 Eyre Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5EP
Chez Pierre may be a recent addition to Edinburgh's restaurant scene, but the name will be familiar to seasoned Scottish diners. Co-owner and head chef Pierre Levicky was the entrepreneur behind the Pierre Victoire chain, which briefly flourished across…
88 Commercial Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
Situated in the modern development along Commercial Quay, Daniel's is a temple to all things French – with a good dose of Scottish thrown in. Owner Daniel Vencker is originally from Alsace, but is keen to embrace his adopted country in all aspects of…
Duck's at Le Marché Noir
14 Eyre Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5EP
If you are looking for an intimate dining experience with attentive service and classic, well-executed cooking, Duck's certainly fits the bill. It may be a bit out of the centre for true urbanites but it's certainly worth the walk down that steep hill.
La Garrigue
31 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DH
La Garrigue takes its name from the Languedoc region of France and this dictates the style of food and wine on the menu. Warm orange and red-hued paintings from the area line the white wood-panelled walls and are also for sale, and hand-carved chunky…
Jacques
8 Gillespie Place,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HS
With its stripped floorboards, colourful vintage French posters, and bustling, open-plan kitchen, Jacques combines a laid-back ambience with a compelling, versatile menu. The bistro has been going for the past 18 years, attracting a loyal local…
The Kitchin
78 Commercial Quay,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
He trained at some of Europe's finest restaurants under Pierre Koffman and Alain Ducasse, so it is not surprising that Tom Kitchin has made such a fast success of his Leith establishment. He returned to Scotland two years ago and within six months had…
Made in France
5 Lochrin Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9QX
Amanda and Graham Nash fell in love with France, so they decided to bring home what they'd found and the result is this wee French café and deli in Tollcross. The little bell that jangles cheerfully as you enter gives way to the sound of locals from the…
Maison Bleue
36–38 Victoria Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JW
The romantic stone arches of this Old Town space are quintessential Edinburgh yet lend themselves beautifully to the French-north African theme of Maison Bleue. Décor creates an intimate atmosphere, as does the layout, so those on neighbouring tables…
Malmaison Brasserie
1 Tower Place,
Edinburgh,
EH6 7DB
This boutique chain hotel restaurant has its own separate entrance, and as you go inside you are thrust from the sunshine of Leith waterside into a dark, enveloping atmosphere. It's more like a gentleman's club, with studded leather armchairs, leather…
Le Marché Français
9a West Maitland Street,
Edinburgh,
EH12 5DS
This is a popular deli and café by day with a large window full of croissants and baguettes, but come evening, the window is devoid of patisserie and you have to peer past the shelves of tins and jars of French produce to the back of the shop to see…
Mouton Noir
3–5 Viewforth,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4JD
The minimalist décor of pale olive walls, wooden floor and tables, thick black cotton napkins and black candles in this small restaurant, which opened in October 2007, seems at odds with the very non-minimalist substantial helpings of traditional French…
Petit Paris
38–40 Grassmarket,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JU
'Le respect de la tradition Française' is the strapline to this lively bistro, whose Grassmarket headquarters has plied a successful trade for a decade, with a further branch opening on Queensferry Street in 2005. While the décor of blue, white and red…
Petit Paris
17 Queensferry Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4QP
'Le respect de la tradition Française' is the strapline to this lively bistro, whose Grassmarket headquarters has plied a successful trade for a decade, with a further branch opening on Queensferry Street in 2005. While the décor of blue, white and red…
La P'tite Folie
61 Frederick Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1LH
Like the best local chains, the two branches of La P'tite Folie seek out and serve quite distinctively different customer bases in their different locations. The West End branch in Randolph Place buzzes with business talk at lunchtime. Its popularity is…
La P'tite Folie
Tudor House, 9 Randolph Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 7TE
Like the best local chains, the two branches of La P'tite Folie seek out and serve quite distinctively different customer bases in their different locations. The West End branch in Randolph Place buzzes with business talk at lunchtime. Its popularity is…
Plumed Horse
50–54 Henderson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6DE
A year or so after upping sticks from Dumfriesshire and trotting off to this unprepossessing Leith corner – surrendering its Michelin star on the way – there are signs that the Plumed Horse's teething problems have been tempered. Subtle refinements…
The Pompadour
Caledonian Hilton, Princes Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2AB
There was a time when the Caledonian Hotel was an Edinburgh landmark, with the Pompadour, its epicentre, delivering à la carte cuisine in opulent surroundings. While the hotel embarks on a much-needed £22m redevelopment programme, the restaurant remains…
Restaurant Martin Wishart
54 The Shore,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6RA
With its chic, neutral colour scheme, soft carpeting and cream upholstering, Restaurant Martin Wishart wears its Michelin star with Hollywood ease. The food is so mind-alteringly pleasurable, so far removed from mere sustenance that you might forget…
Le Sept
5 Hunter Square,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1QW
Le Sept's airy dining room is all casual Gallic chic rather than over-coiffed stuffiness or Eiffel-and-onions pastiche. Black and white photographs crowd one wall and ledges are decked with red rosehip fairy lights. By day the lunch deal attracts both…
The Vaults, 87 Giles Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6BZ
Relive the days when vintners would discuss the latest wine imports from France in this beautiful 18th century stucco sale room which is still only lit with candles. Named after the original diners, The Vintners Rooms makes a gracious nod to history…
