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…
Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8DT
'Authentic' may be an over-used claim on many menus, but at Chop Chop it's entirely appropriate. Don't be fooled by the garish red and yellow façade: it might look like any other takeaway, but Chop Chop is the real deal. Genuinely charming and…
The Blue Parrot Cantina
49 St Stephen Street, Edinburgh, EH3 5AH
The Blue Parrot isn't a place that shouts about itself. From the road outside, there are few signs that this compact restaurant exists at all. If there was a prize for subtlety, this place would win hands down. It doesn't even do garish wall mounts or…
Buffalo Grill
1 Raeburn Place, Edinburgh, EH4 1HU
'Native American' is very much the theme at both Buffalo Grills, which means steak, Corona and a veritable tribe of chiefs in monochrome bedecking the walls. Right next to the university, the Southside branch is unsurprisingly lively. But for the…
Howies
10–14 Victoria Street, Edinburgh, EH1 2HG
This excellent value restaurant chain is now an Edinburgh institution and deservedly so. There are four restaurants, conveniently situated in the four areas of the compass of central Edinburgh. Waterloo Place, in the east, has been recently renovated…
Bonsai
46 West Richmond Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9DZ
With the convivial hubbub of the closely packed tables, the sizzling steam and enticing aromas emerging from the kitchen, and the bold white, crimson and black décor, at Bonsai it's easy to imagine yourself in an izakaya in downtown Tokyo. And indeed it…
The Wee Curry Shop
7 Buccleuch Street, Glasgow, G3 6SJ
The sentiments of the 'small is beautiful' saying are certainly supported by Glasgow's various Wee Curry Shops. The newest one, opened towards the end of 2007 in Byres Road, is the latest tiny jewel in the crown of the empire of its parent group, Mother…
Brazilian Sensation
117–119 Buccleuch Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9NG
With an emphasis on good cuisine and familial service, Brazilian Sensation has long set its stall on hearty home-cooked portions and enough originality to appeal to even the most adventurous palette. A well-run family enterprise headed by John and Lucia…
Empires
24 St Mary's Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1SU
Colourful, cluttered and slightly chaotic, Empires is richly decorated with ornate wooden panelling, hand-painted ceramics and cascades of mosaic lanterns twinkling overhead. By day it is bright and cheery, offering healthy lunches and herbal teas, but…
Howies
1a Alva Street, Edinburgh, EH2 4PH
This excellent value restaurant chain is now an Edinburgh institution and deservedly so. There are four restaurants, conveniently situated in the four areas of the compass of central Edinburgh. Waterloo Place, in the east, has been recently renovated…
Saigon Saigon Dim Sum Restaurant
14 South St Andrew Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2AZ
Expect the unexpected at Saigon Saigon. The area upstairs that, for the past five years, served up a Chinese buffet, was converted into a typical Chinese restaurant in January 2008. However, this isn't the biggest surprise: its reputation as a buffet…
Hanedan
41 West Preston Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9PY
The fact that Hanedan's owner and chef, Gursel Bahar, has previously flexed his culinary muscles at the Four Seasons and with Sir Terence Conran at London's exquisite Quaglino's restaurant will come as little surprise to anyone who's sampled the…
Magda
6 Brougham Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9UH
Sparsely decorated and modestly furnished, Magda relies on a large poster of a map of Africa on one wall and the evocative sketch of a dhow inside the menus to set the scene. It could be a place for the adventurous eater to take a less adventurous…
Howies
208 Bruntsfield Place, Edinburgh, EH10 4DE
This excellent value restaurant chain is now an Edinburgh institution and deservedly so. There are four restaurants, conveniently situated in the four areas of the compass of central Edinburgh. Waterloo Place, in the east, has been recently renovated…
The New York Steam Packet
31 Rose Street Lane North, Edinburgh, EH2 2NP
The New York Steam Packet is secreted up an alley off Rose Street that, fittingly, looks like an abandoned set from West Side Story. A tight spiral staircase leads to a wood-panelled, cabin-like room bedecked in seductive art deco posters for…
Susie's Diner
51–53 West Nicolson Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9DB
Nestled in the heart of Edinburgh's studentville, Susie's Diner straddles the border between student grub and higher-end café. On the one hand, the menu is a doodled board, with food served up in a manner that's more institutional canteen than 'diner'.
Tapa Coffee & Bakehouse
21 Whitehill Street, Dennistoun, Glasgow, G31 2LH
Named after the South Pacific tapa cloth, which is 'hand-made using traditional methods', this artisanal bakery, café and coffee roasterie just off Duke Street in Dennistoun applies the same principles to its food. The ethos is clearly appreciated by a…
The Forest
3 Bristo Place, Edinburgh, EH1 1EY
Rather like Doctor Who's Tardis, The Forest café's exterior gives no hint of the space to be found within. The large back room is a real jumble, full of comfy sofas, mismatched tables and chairs, and a worn game of Pictionary perching haphazardly atop a…
Hanam's
13a Brougham Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9JS
Not for nothing has Hanam's owner Jahmal Ahmed applied for new, bigger premises on Victoria Street. Pared down and pleasantly unassuming in design, Ahmed's current location on Tollcross already has a loyal following, due in no small part to its…
Howies at Waterloo
29 Waterloo Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3BQ
This excellent value restaurant chain is now an Edinburgh institution and deservedly so. There are four restaurants, conveniently situated in the four areas of the compass of central Edinburgh. Waterloo Place, in the east, has been recently renovated…
Where the Monkey Sleeps
182 West Regent Street, Glasgow, G2 4RU
At WTMS, street-smart staff behind the counter cheerfully take orders from office-workers, students and the assorted hipsters who descend the steps to this basement café with comfy mismatched sofas. Inked on a giant whiteboard, the epic menu offers a…
Izzi
119 Lothian Road, Edinburgh, EH3 9AN
With its wall of glass facing onto Lothian Road, selection of gelatinous permanent display dishes in the window, and slick modern interior with open serving area featuring a teppanyaki bar, Izzi has a fairly distinctive presence on the Edinburgh dining…
Montpeliers
159–161 Bruntsfield Place, Edinburgh, EH10 4DG
Montpeliers has long been a Bruntsfield favourite, the regular clientele ranging from well-heeled students and local residents to footballers. A recent makeover both outside and in means there are no signs of the place resting on its laurels style-wise…
Louis' Bistro
18 Gibson Street, Glasgow, G12 8NX
Gibson Street is fast becoming the nucleus for West End dining, and Louis' Bistro has been growing in popularity since it opened in 2006. It's owned by the same team that runs the ever-wonderful No Sixteen [see Scottish], but the dishes here are more…
Ben Ledi Café (Mhor Fish)
75-77 Main Street, Callander, Stirlingshire, FK17 8DX
Owned and run by well-known foodie folk in Stirlingshire, the Lewis family - who also own the Monachyle Mhor in Balquhidder - Ben Ledi Café will make sure you're well fed and watered on your visit to scenic Callander. Welcomed by grand Ben Ledi as you…
