Al Dente
139 Easter Road, Edinburgh, EH7 5QA
Al Dente’s low ceilings, tiled floors and wooden tables give the feel of a traditional trattoria. The small space is enlivened by numerous photos, including some of owner Graziano Spano’s home of Bari in southern Italy. Quality ingredients and…
Always Sunday
170 High Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1QS
This blueprint for a successful café is as easy as a Sunday morning. The clear glass frontage provides space, light and the perfect vantage point from which to spy on tourists photographing the Royal Mile. A fresh and very friendly tearoom, Always…
Anteaques
17 Clerk Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9JH
If Alice in Wonderland had a local, it would be Anteaques. For a start, co-owner and antiques dealer Cedric is a small, very friendly, quick man who wears a waistcoat and pocket watch. He’s also brave: this is a tightly packed antiques shop, bursting…
The Apartment Bistro
7–13 Barclay Place, Edinburgh, EH10 4HW
The Apartment Bistro, older sibling to the Outsider restaurant, has completed its first year since a radical overhaul of both interior and menu. Deep red walls, low hanging pendant lamps and mismatched canteen chairs create a stylish and intimate vibe.
Appetite Direct
42 Howe Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6TH
Most of Appetite Direct’s business is outside catering, from small private dinners to weddings and gallery openings. So it follows that their shop is no run-of-the mill deli. It’s a wonder what they produce from the small kitchen every day: several…
Bia Bistrot
19 Colinton Road, Edinburgh, EH10 5DP
Bia Bistrot is the brainchild of Franco-Irish couple Matthias and Roisin Llorente, who bring their experience of cooking in top flight (including Michelin-starred) kitchens around the world to this cosy but classic Edinburgh bistro. Their passion and…
Black Bo's (Restaurant)
57–61 Blackfriars Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1NB
Black Bo’s is another restaurant which has graced the Edinburgh vegetarian scene for over 20 years. If this were to draw you to the conclusion that they must be doing something right you’d be spot on. The shabby chic bistro-style interior is…
The Boat House
22 High Street, South Queensferry, City of Edinburgh, EH30 9PP
There is much to enjoy in this waterfront South Queensferry gem. Ambitious owner and head chef Paul Steward has conjured up a bijou cocktail bar that tempts at street level. Downstairs, floor to ceiling windows offer views of the dramatic iron sweep of…
The Bon Vivant
55 Thistle Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1DY
The Bon Vivant is a stylish and well-stocked bar where the innovative cocktails are expertly made and the wine list is huge (44 available by the glass including 12 champagnes). Dark walls and candlelight set the scene, and amid the cosiness are decks…
Bonsai Bar Bistro
46 West Richmond St, Edinburgh, EH8 9DZ
Pruning. An under-rated skill, but in the world of tiny trees – as in Japanese restaurants – a vital one. Luckily they have it in spades at Bonsai, with a commendably focused menu that doesn’t try to cover too many bases. And, where they do go in for…
Broughton Delicatessen
7 Barony Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6PD
Recently voted among the top 50 delis in the UK, this little deli/café champions the relaxed, community-based ethos of Broughton Street. There’ll be no pursed lips if you sit all day over your coffee and a book, there’s no BYOB corkage, and regular…
Café Fish
15 North West Circus Place, Edinburgh, EH3 6SX
Note: in July 2011 Café Fish moved to a new location in Stockbridge. This review, first published in April 2011, refers to its previous venue in Leith. It is a brave restaurant that opens a few doors along from the Michelin-starred Plumed Horse, but…
Café Modern One
Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art One, 75 Belford Road, Edinburgh, EH4 3DR
A stalwart in Edinburgh’s arts-venue dining scene, the gallery café has become synonymous with quality food. A recent refurb has brought a more modern, streamlined feel to the operation, although the overall approach remains the same. Operating a…
Café St Honoré
34 North West Thistle Street Lane, Edinburgh, EH2 1EA
With its wood-panelled and mirrored interior, black and white chequered floors and spindly tables with white cloths, Café St Honoré certainly has the power to make you feel like you’re in 1940s Paris. Fortunately for Edinburgh diners, 2011 Scottish…
Castle Terrace
33/35 Castle Terrace, Edinburgh, EH1 2EL
The opening of Castle Terrace in July 2010 saw its Edinburgh-born chef-patron Dominic Jack thrust into the spotlight. Having shone at iconic Paris restaurant Taillevent among others, hopes were high and Castle Terrace was quickly awarded a Michelin…
Classic's
10 Windsor Street, Edinburgh, EH7 5JR
Classics restaurant is hidden away in the basement of the Cairn Hotel, but don’t let the unprepossessing location put you off. And don’t be distracted by the incongruous piped muzak that plays on a loop while you study the menu. The food is of prime…
The Cloisters
26 Brougham Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9JH
Situated in an old church in Tollcross, Cloisters is a dependable, straight down the line pub. Here you will find an open fire, large solid wooden tables and a bunch of friendly locals enjoying a pint of ale from the well stocked bar. There isn’t a…
David Bann
56–58 St Mary's Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1SX
They say that once you reach the top the only way is down, but this is far from the case for David Bann who, for almost ten years, has been at the forefront of vegetarian dining in Edinburgh. There are no vegetarian clichés to be found here, only…
The Dining Room
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, 28 Queen Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1JX
The Dining Room sits in the ground floor of a restored Georgian townhouse inhabited by the Scotch Malt Whisky Society. The interior is surprisingly contemporary, cosy and light, and the restaurant is open all week to non-members. A mega-meaty starter…
Dusit
49a Thistle Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1DY
A perfect tempura prawn sums up the expertise on display here: a prawn of unparalleled creaminess, the panko breadcrumbs brittle and crisp in contrast. It’s the benchmark of almost a decade of lauded cooking that fills seats on a wet Monday evening as…
Earthy Market Café
33–41 Ratcliffe Terrace, Edinburgh, EH9 1SX
Earthy Food Market is the kind of speciality food store where you can buy an organic, slow-cooked lamb hotpot – for your dog. Yum café goers now have more space on the expanded ground floor, which is rather Good Life with moss-green paintwork, battered…
El Quijote
13a Brougham Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9JS
The most recent opening on Edinburgh’s Spanish dining scene is also a strong contender for being the best. Although the boxy storefront premises aren’t the most versatile, a full bookshelf sporting the eponymous Don Quixote and a basket of imported…
L'escargot Bleu L'escargot Bleu
56 Broughton Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3SA
Broughton Street is full of trendy cafés and bistros but L’escargot Bleu stands out from the crowd with its French menu, chic bric-a-brac interior and superior sourcing policy highlighted through its own delicatessen in the basement. Owner Frederick…
La Favorita (Takeaway)
325–331 Leith Walk, Edinburgh, EH6 8SA
Not for nothing does owner Tony Crolla boast that La Favorita offers 'the best pizza in Edinburgh'. His tasty, log-fired pizzas have become his calling card, arriving at your door with as much flavour and zing as you'd expect from its restaurant…
First Coast
97–101 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2AB
