Bijou
2 Restalrig Road,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8BN
Since coming under new management in late 2011 this small bistro on the edge of Leith Links has been spruced up and dusted down. The atmosphere is casual and the welcome friendly, and as for the food, it puts many pricier city centre places to shame.
Café Grande
184 Bruntsfield Place,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4DF
Café Grande has sat among Bruntsfield’s mish-mash of ever-changing shops for a good while now, and it seems well pitched for the market that surrounds it. Decked out in classic French bistro red, the walls are a cacophony of old prints, chalkboards and…

Radisson SAS Hotel, 80 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1TH

Harvey Nichols, 30–34 St Andrew Square,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2AD

Edinburgh,
EH6 7BZ
Being a hotel restaurant can have its perks and challenges – and the brasserie at Malmaison does make an effort to be more than an adjunct to the successful and stylish hotel chain. The chunky Victorian waterfront property, fitted out with plush…

Metro Brasserie and Café Bar
Apex International Hotel, 31–35 Grassmarket,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2HS
Metro Brasserie fills the barn-like ground and basement floors of the Apex City Hotel in buzzing Grassmarket. Ground-floor diners eat at small window tables with views of the castle, while the basement level seems reserved for larger hen or birthday…
Monster Mash
20 Forrest Road,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QN
In April 2010, Monster Mash relocates a grand total of 15m up the road. But fans need not fear: the biggest change will simply be more space to spend your money. As 20 Forrest Road will see restaurant seating for 65, private dining for 25 and outdoor…

Whighams Wine Cellars
13 Hope Street, Charlotte Square,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4EL
For almost 30 years, stressed professionals have uncoiled at Whighams. At 6pm on Fridays the shadowy cellar’s nooks are jammed, the restaurant side is heaving and the bar stools are occupied by smart ladies gratefully cradling one of 40 wines by the…
