Roastit Bubbly Jocks
450 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 6SE
Amidst the charity shops at the long end of Dumbarton Road, Roastit Bubbly Jocks might seem out of the way. For many, however, it's a well-loved dining institution. The emphasis is on the food and atmosphere: it's bustling, loud and warm – the way any…

Home Bistro
41 West Nicolson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9DB
A number of neighbourhood bistros have popped up around Edinburgh in recent years. The concept is a good one: locally sourced foods in a cosy and welcoming atmosphere. Inevitably, some work and some don't, but you would be hard pushed to find any…
Zanzero
15 North West Circus Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6SX
Opened in 2007, this is the younger, slightly brasher sibling of the city centre establishment Centotre, owned by Victor and Carina Contini. Many aspects of the two are consistent, including the insistence on high quality, largely organic local produce…

Glasgow,
G3 8AN
With a name meaning 'taste' or 'relish' in Gaelic, Blas proudly offers tastes of the Highlands and Islands in produce such as Stornoway black pudding, Ullapool smoked salmon and Dingwall haggis. Fittingly, it's situated close to many of the city's…
Daniel's Bistro
88 Commercial Street,
Edinburgh,

Pani Solińska
73 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3RJ
Pani Solinska is Polish for 'Mrs Solinska'. Dorothy Nowak-Solinska took over Broughton Street landmark Café Mediterraneo last year, but before putting her name above the door in spring 2008 took some time to design a restaurant she could be proud of.
Blueglass

Browns Restaurant and Bar
131–133 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JS
With a kitchen that can handle close to a thousand covers on its busiest days, Browns is no modest operation. No surprise, given that it's one of a chain of 14 owned by the gargantuan Mitchells and Butlers pub operators. The corporate ethos is classic…
La Lanterna
35 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 6AE
For almost four decades, the Martinolli family have been serving up traditional Italian cuisine in their attractive, cavernous restaurant beneath the otherwise unedifying, traffic-choking Hope Street. The décor has remained almost untouched – a warm…
Osteria Piero
111 West Regent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2RU
Aiming for a 'fresher, up-to-the-minute approach to Italian cooking', this new venture from Piero Sarti (where Bouzy Rouge once traded) has a concise menu that changes seasonally. The atmosphere is straight out of a Tuscany trattoria with wooden tables…
Double Dutch
27–29 Marshall Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9BJ
There's an appealing openness about Double Dutch. Windows take up the length of two walls, and the blonde wood of the furniture and floor brings a clean, bright feeling to the airy space. A small team works in an open kitchen, churning out…
Monster Mash
4a Forrest Road,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QN
With its black and white décor, tomato-shaped ketchup bottles and 'happy days are here again', catchphrase, stepping into Monster Mash feels like going back to the 1950s. It's popular with pub-goers, university students and families, and there's a…
The New Bell
233 Causewayside,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1PH
This Southside restaurant above the Old Bell bar has cemented a reliable reputation over the years with a friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff. Its well-rounded menu will suit all tastes and it offers a selection of staple children's favourites on…

O Sole Mio
34–36 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1HG
This quaint little trattoria at the east end of Bath Street is now in its fifth decade. The interior is traditional, with booths separated by wooden trellises, while the open kitchen is shrouded under a faded maroon canopy. There's a nice air of…

Bruntsfield Hotel, 69 Bruntsfield Place,

Café Mao
84 Brunswick Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1TD

Minsky's
Glasgow Hilton, 1 William Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8HT
Of the two restaurants within Glasgow's five-star city centre Hilton, the casual option is Minsky's. This self-styled 'New York-style brasserie' operates arguably more like a Midwestern-style massive buffet, offering a bewildering array of food.
