A Room in Leith
1c Dock Place, Edinburgh, EH6 6LU

A Room in the Town
18 Howe Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6TG

A Room in the West End
26 William Street, Edinburgh, EH3 7NH
The 'Room in the…' chain has won considerable popularity in Edinburgh thanks to unpretentious surroundings, fulsome food and that rare beauty, a BYO policy. The West End branch, a snug basement beneath the frequently rowdy Teuchter’s pub on William…
Agua Agua
Apex City Hotel, 61 Grassmarket, Edinburgh, EH1 2JF
The leading restaurant in the set of three Apex Hotels in Edinburgh, Agua, as the name implies, offers some piscine-influenced dining. The loss of the fresh crustacean menu is a bitter blow, but the canny owners of Agua have racked up the ambition of…
Amarone
2 Nelson Mandela Place, Glasgow, G2 1BT

The Apartment Bistro
7–13 Barclay Place, Edinburgh, EH10 4HW

Arcaffe
7 North Claremont Street, Glasgow, G3 7NR

Balbir's Balbir's Saffron Lounge
61 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3YR
With the familiar Sikh warrior guarding the entrance, Balbir’s Southside outpost is easily spotted among the bars and restaurants in Shawlands. Inside, it shoots back for a fair distance, with the buffet set-up retreating most of the way too. Offering…
The Bank The Bank Café Bar
443 Clarkston Road, Glasgow, G44 3LL

Bar Milano
2 Mains Avenue, Eastwood Toll, Glasgow, G46 6QZ

Barbarossa
Cartside House, 1–7 Clarkston Road, Glasgow, G44 4EF

Bibi's Cantina
599 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G11 6HY
Tucked away at the end of Dumbarton Road is a little casa of good food. The candlelit interior reminds diners of Cantina’s culinary origins – the walls are covered with prints of cacti and poncho-wearing vaqueros. There’s also very attractive, brightly…
Bijou
2 Restalrig Road, Edinburgh, EH6 8BN
If not quite a diamond in the rough, Bijou is certainly a lovely find in an unlikely locale. This low-key café/bistro by Leith Links is frequented by locals and intrepid visitors for breakfast, lunch, dinner and take-away. The tiny kitchen dishes up…
The Birdcage
Stuart House, Eskmills, Station Road, Musselburgh, East Lothian, EH21 7PQ
Previously known as The Glasshouse, due to gleaming glass walls, this upmarket Musselburgh restaurant housed in the village’s Eskmills now takes its name from the walk-through birdcage which occupies pride of place in the spacious front bar. Once home…

Bruntsfield Hotel, 69 Bruntsfield Place, Edinburgh, EH10 4HH

Blue Moon Café
36 Broughton Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3SB

La Bonne Auberge
161 West Nile Street, Glasgow, G1 2RL
