The Blue Parrot Cantina
49 St Stephen Street, Edinburgh, EH3 5AH
Tucked away downstairs, this cosy basement cantina has been serving the residents of Stockbridge for almost 20 years. The open plan kitchen is the first sight to greet you as you enter; once into the dining room the mood is simple and stripped back with…
New Edinburgh Rendezvous
10a Queensferry Street, Edinburgh, EH2 4PG
After the dubious-looking shared entranceway with its faded carpets and dirty walls, the restaurant at the top of the stairs is a surprisingly bright, clean and welcoming place. It does double-duty on the service front, offering a set price buffet at…
Khublai Khan Mongolian Barbecue Restaurant
43 Assembly Street, Leith, Edinburgh, EH6 7BQ
Mongolia may be best known for its goat broth, yak butter and fermented mare’s milk, but it’s the sheer incongruity of Khublai Khan’s that draws most people in. Although there is an element of gimmickry – not least the chance (by prior arrangement) to…
Indigo Yard
7 Charlotte Lane, Edinburgh, EH2 4QZ
While not as conspicuously trendy as some of its West End neighbours, Indigo Yard’s exposed walls and unusual shape create a cosy, cave-like feel – although at weekends it can be cramped. It’s a popular spot for a tipple, with 15 beers on tap, another…
Sygn
15 Charlotte Lane, Edinburgh, EH2 4QZ
Sygn’s geometric print wallpaper, grey fabrics and beech tables create a retro-chic vibe that’s simple yet elegant, proving to George Street’s style bars that you don’t need to be ostentatious to be cool. And if you can resist the temptation to go home…
iso-bar
7 Bernard Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6PW
In a location more useful to locals than those after destination dining and drinking, Leith’s iso-bar has long since deservedly outstripped the era of the style bar with an attention to detail that’s best exemplified by the food. Chef and co-owner Allan…
Bell's Diner
7 St Stephen Street, Edinburgh, EH3 5AN
If your restaurant is really only serving two things, you’d better make sure you do those things well. Bell's Diner has been doing steak and burgers well for over 40 years and there are no signs of things changing. Behind its anonymous exterior, there’s…
Bonoful
13–17 Brighton Place, Edinburgh, EH15 1LH
Situated in Portobello, Bonoful has successfully built a reputation among regulars, and as word spreads is attracting custom from further afield. With a pristine modern minimalist interior, the menu specialises in Bangladeshi food but also includes…
Lancers Brasserie
5 Hamilton Place, Edinburgh, EH3 5BA
Lancers Brasserie continues to bring Bengali-inspired North Indian cuisine to its long-established Stockbridge setting. Split across two ground floor rooms and a separate basement area for private dining, the décor is crisp and contemporary with…
The King's Wark
36 The Shore, Edinburgh, EH6 6QU
First and foremost the King’s Wark is a good, solid pub. The dark wood tables and floors have been lovingly restored, Scottish ales are served on tap and the bar is well-stocked with a healthy combination of pub classics and well-selected imports. The…
The WestRoom
3 Melville Place, Edinburgh, EH3 7PR
Whether it’s a Bellini or a Bramble, a Martini or a Margarita, the folks at the WestRoom know their mixology. And like any good cocktail, the success of this small, oddly shaped bar is due to getting the blend of ingredients just right. Low lighting…
Santo's Bistro
23 Canning Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8EG
In the context of the starkly oppressive high-rise offices off Lothian Road, this family-run café is a welcome retreat in which to linger over comforting daily specials or grab lunch to go. With their older sister Locanda De Gusti – one of Edinburgh’s…
The Roseleaf
23–24 Sandport Place, Edinburgh, EH6 6EW
At Leith’s Roseleaf bar the cocktails are served in teapots in the style of 1920s American speakeasies. Flock wallpaper adorns the walls and the window sills are cluttered with vintage trinkets such as typewriters, old photographs and board games…
Italian Kitchen
18-24 Deanhaugh Street, Edinburgh, EH4 1LY
This small basement restaurant shows promising will to put the mediocre high-street Italian chains in their place by bringing original dishes and quality produce to Stockbridge village. A relationship with the community is evident with their sourcing of…
Diner 7
7 Commercial Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6JA
Leith certainly has its fair share of restaurants, but in among the fine dining and the seafood platters it would be an oversight to miss the narrow entrance to this laid-back burger and steak specialist. Inside it’s simply decorated (if you discount…
Sabor Criollo
36 Deanhaugh Street, Edinburgh, EH4 1LY
Totally tropical Sabor Criollo serves up South American classics from its fantastically-foliaged basement in Stockbridge. A proliferation of parrots look at as you gaze out across turquoise seas in trompe l’oeil scenes beneath a climber creeping across…
Café Domenico
30 Sandport Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6EP
Tucked away behind the Cameo Bar in Leith, it’s easy to pass the small entrance to the Café Domenico by. Don’t make this mistake, though, as, housed in this tiny bistro with its eclectic decorations, scattered wall tiles and red and white check…
Hectors
47–49 Deanhaugh Street, Edinburgh, EH4 1LR
Something of a chameleon, Hectors seems to be able to morph from a quiet and comfortable daytime retreat – where lunch and a quiet pint with the papers are very much the order of the day – to a lively but friendly nightspot, where the excellent…
Cruz Bar and Restaurant
14 The Shore, Edinburgh, EH6 6QN
A First World War minesweeper boat anchored right at the heart of Leith’s bustling Shore district, Cruz has to be among the most distinctive drinking venues in Edinburgh. A popular watering hole with the area’s young party crowd, Cruz serves up an…
The Ship on the Shore
24–26 The Shore, Edinburgh, EH6 6QN
A popular fixture on the Leith scene for nearly a quarter of a century, the Ship on the Shore can genuinely be said to offer something for everyone – as long as you’re not averse to fresh, beautifully prepared fish and seafood. Opening its doors with…
Pho Vietnam House
3 Grove Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8AF
Tucked away on a side street, family run Pho Vietnam House is Edinburgh's only Vietnamese restaurant. Eating here is a bit like having dinner in your best friend's living room: it's small and cosy and owner Jodie Nguyen will offer a warm greeting when…
Bond No. 9
84 Commercial Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6LX
Bond No. 9 is set in the refurbished walls of an old Leith whisky bond. Dark wood panelling, low lighting and rich colours give the cocktail bar an opulent den-like feel that is luxe without straying into pretension. In-house concoctions, with a keen…
Avoca Bar & Grill
4-6 Dean Street, Edinburgh, EH4 1LW
Set into a relatively snug pair of rooms on a side street off Stockbridge’s main drag, this modern but lived-in bar feels like a bit of a nook, a welcome discovery when you find it. It’s a proper local for the diverse clientele of Stockbridge and…
Buffalo Grill
1 Raeburn Place, Edinburgh, EH4 1HU
Pictures of the big beasts may decorate the walls but no, you won’t find buffalo meat on the grill here. However, there are plenty of other options available on the surprisingly wide-ranging menu from this veteran of the Stockbridge dining scene…
Chop Chop
76 Commercial Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6LX
The lively Morrison Street outpost of this popular restaurant continues to draw a crowd who enjoy the hustle and bustle of its sparsely furnished cafeteria-style room. Known primarily for boiled and fried dumplings, the idea is to place your order and…
China Town
3 Atholl Place, Edinburgh, EH3 8HP
Don’t be fooled by China Town’s modest whitewashed frontage at the end of Shandwick Place. Step inside and you’ll find a stylish dining room that’s all muted colours, luxe upholstery and statement lighting. The Chinese influence shows in the old musical…
The Indian Cavalry Club
22 Coates Crescent, Edinburgh, EH3 7AF
This West End institution, which celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2012, is where the old Raj meets modern day Edinburgh. Funky screen prints on the wall look down on crisp linen tablecloths and waiters in military-style uniforms serve classic Indian…
Reds
254 Portobello High Street, Edinburgh, EH15 2AT
The sign reading ‘Six buggy limit’ says it all. If you live in Portobello and have small children, chances are you’ll know Reds and its large, soft cage – sorry, play frame – in the back room, where your offspring can slide and scamper while you eat or…
Fishers Bistro
1 The Shore, Edinburgh, EH6 6QW
Fishers Restaurant Group now comprises two main branches as well as the Shore Bar & Restaurant, which stands adjacent to the original Leith eaterie. While both the Leith and city centre restaurants bear the Fishers moniker, the two venues couldn’t…
Stockbridge Tap
2 Raeburn Place, Edinburgh, EH4 1HN
Decked out in light oak with a scattering of brewery paraphernalia on the walls, the Stockbridge Tap is one of the area’s more pleasant drinking establishments. The quiet, traditional atmosphere, well-kept ales and dizzying array of whisky on offer…
Teuchters Landing
1c Dock Place, Edinburgh, EH6 6LU
The pub sister of the A Room In… chain of restaurants, both Teuchters are directly connected to the Leith and West End branches of the restaurant. As if offering a frankly stunning range of alcohol (over 90 single malts in Teuchters; a wealth of…
Bluerapa Thai
6 Torphichen Place, Edinburgh, EH3 8DU
Bluerapa Thai sits in the Haymarket area of Edinburgh and is a recently opened (2011) restaurant and takeaway. Run by the former owners of Chiang Mai, the jovial dining area has lime green walls, ruby lamps and teak furniture and there’s a popular BYOB…
Montpeliers Bar and Brasserie
159–161 Bruntsfield Place, Edinburgh, EH10 4DG
A favourite of Bruntsfield’s young professional set for two decades, the apparently recession-proof Montpeliers sowed the seed for a successful and diverse group of bars and restaurants including George Street glam joints Tigerlily and Rick’s. Here…
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…
Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8DT
The lively Morrison Street outpost of this popular restaurant continues to draw a crowd who enjoy the hustle and bustle of its sparsely furnished cafeteria-style room. Known primarily for boiled and fried dumplings, the idea is to place your order and…
The Espy
62–64 Bath Street, Portobello, Edinburgh, EH15 1HF
It might officially be the Esplanade, but ‘The Espy’ – ideally delivered with an Antipodean twang – as it's better known, suits this laid-back beach bar better. With friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere it proves there’s more to Portobello than…
Malvarosa
262 Portobello High Street, Edinburgh, EH15 2AT
Until recently, Portobello's links to Spain were pretty much limited to its name and a strip of sand. Madrid native Alvaro Bernabeu opened Malvarosa’s doors in 2011, and has gained an enthusiastic following since. Greeting guests with a wry smile and…
Henri of Edinburgh
48 Raeburn Place, Stockbridge, Edinburgh, EH4 1HL
French deli Henri is well established in Morningside, but 2012 brings a new dimension with the opening of a much more spacious wine bar and café in Stockbridge. The deli counter still sells an impressive range of cheeses, charcuterie and dried goods…
Ristorante Ferrari
1 Merchiston Place, Bruntsfield, Edinburgh, EH10 4NP
What was once the Bruntsfield Post Office has now been transformed into an airy oasis of tea lights and exposed stonework, chocolate brown walls and cream tablecloths. A correspondingly modern yet classic menu accompanies a stunning wine list, offering…
Papoli
244a Morrison Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8DT
Papoli really is a little gem. Outside, the Haymarket traffic rumbles by, while inside its dinky dining room is a retreat of warm orange and yellow pendant lighting hanging low. Prints of Provence (perhaps?) and Greece hint at the culinary offering but…
Le Marché Français
9a West Maitland Street, Edinburgh, EH12 5DS
From the outside Le Marché Français looks like just another of the flurry of delis that have sprung up around Edinburgh lately. But delve beyond the cold cuts and cheese counter, past the wines and assorted French goodies and you arrive in a modest…
Ignite
272–274 Morrison Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8DT
The name of this Haymarket restaurant implies something different than its simple, smartly decorated interior. Perhaps it refers to the food from a menu offering the north Indian and Bengali dishes now so familiar to us in the UK. Here they're certainly…
The Mercat Bar & Restaurant
28 West Maitland Street, Edinburgh, EH12 5DX
There’s a certain sense of energy and enthusiasm about the Mercat Bar. Staff show impeccable manners, hosting this vibrant venue with an endearing, youthful charm. The pub part of Mercat is on ground level, decked out with luxurious leather sofas and…
Britannia Spice
150 Commercial Street, Ocean Drive, Edinburgh, EH6 6LB
Situated just a few hundred yards from the Royal Yacht Britannia, the interior designer of Britannia Spice perhaps went a little 'overboard' on the nautical theme which runs from the rather kitsch (the giant ship's wheel) to the rather stylish (small…
The Verandah Tandoori
17 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2BQ
In the same family hands for over 30 years, Dalry Road’s Verandah Tandoori continues to serve its loyal clientele with well-prepared Bangladeshi and Indian cuisine. Overseen by images of celebrity diners from decades past, Manager Foisol Choudhury and…
Nonna's Kitchen
45 Morningside Road, Edinburgh, EH10 4AZ

Hay Sushi
15 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2BQ
Conveniently located close to Haymarket Station, Hay Sushi is spacious and boldly designed in red, black and white, with blue twinkly lights thrown in for good measure. The menu is huge, with glossy photographs of many dishes to make choosing easier. As…
Xiangbala Hot Pot
63 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2BZ
Edinburgh’s most authentic Chinese restaurant is not for the faint-hearted. Vainly will you search for Peking duck or lemon chicken on this menu: rather, prepare for interactive eating. Park yourself before your very own steaming cauldron of broth and…
The Clay Oven
86 Morningside Road, Edinburgh, EH10 4BY
A steady stream of business flocks to this neighbourhood restaurant, and passing trade is not the secret. Loyal Morningside residents provide the mainstay for success in an establishment where pristine white linen tablecloths and handsomely uniformed…
La Partenope
96 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2AX
Named after a mythological maiden who died of heartache on the Bay of Naples, La Partenope offers a taste of Napoli on Dalry Road. This family restaurant is operated by a sibling trio: chef Paolo creates magnificent dishes, brother Renato is the…
Wing Sing Inn
147–149 Dundee Street, Edinburgh, EH11 1BP
Wing Sing Inn is the kind of inconspicuous place you could pass a hundred times and never consider going into, which would be a real shame. Despite its plain décor, overly bright lights and lack of music, there’s an air of conviviality and adventure…
Ocean Kitchen Bar & Grill
Ocean Terminal, Ocean Drive, Edinburgh, EH6 6JJ
A shopping mall wouldn’t be everyone’s choice of an ideal dining experience, and slap bang in the middle of the main food court, Ocean Kitchen Bar & Grill isn’t the most atmospheric dining experience. However, if you’re lucky enough to get a seat by…
The Sizzling Scot Steakhouse & Grill
103–105 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2AB
Tucked away on Dalry Road, the Sizzling Scot Steakhouse & Grill serves exceptional cuts of beef in subtle tartan surroundings. Scottish folk music plays merrily in the background while energetic servers scribble orders. Though the menu is laden with…
First Coast
97–101 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2AB
Anyone who believes great food can’t be found west of Haymarket is missing out. First Coast’s marine wainscoting, cream walls and natural wood create a serene blend of smart, bright and comforting. So it is with the food. A menu featuring grain salad…
Good Seed Bistro
101/102 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2DW
With terracotta flagstones, dark red walls and dim lighting there’s a definite Mediterranean feel to the surroundings at Good Seed, in keeping with the food. It’s one of a clutch of good restaurants now established in an area that was long…
Miso & Sushi
46a Haymarket Terrace, Edinburgh, EH12 5LA
Going to Miso and Sushi is like going back in time. The décor can't have changed in years. Glaring lights preside over a corridor of booths lined with wood and ancient flock wallpaper. It's in desperate need of a spruce up. However, if there's no love…
Ocean Spice
3 Annfield, Newhaven, Edinburgh, EH6 4JF
The name denotes its Firth-side location, rather than a leaning towards seafood, but Edinburgh’s newest Indian takeaway is already building up a deservedly decent reputation for its fare. Owned and run by the young and upbeat Tony Landa, Ocean Spice's…
The Canny Man's
239 Morningside Road, Edinburgh, EH10 4QU
With a colourful history and formidable reputation, the Canny Man remains a truly unique institution – how many pubs do you know that sell Salmanazars (nine-litre bottles) of champagne? Service from impeccably dressed staff is frequently charming but…
Bennets of Morningside
1 Maxwell Street, Edinburgh, EH10 5FT
Not to be confused with the establishment of the same name located on Leven Street, this Bennets Bar is to be found on Maxwell Street in Morningside. With the same owners as The Cumberland Bar, Bennets is another very traditional pub specialising in…
Loch Fyne Restaurant
25 Pier Place, Newhaven Harbour, Edinburgh, EH6 4LP
While not quite the original, Edinburgh's branch of the Loch Fyne Restaurant does enjoy its own prime location at Newhaven Harbour with pleasant views over the Forth. The building may have the depth and height of an air hanger, but the floor-to-ceiling…
The Caley Sample Room
42–58 Angle Park Terrace, Edinburgh, EH11 2JR
Nowadays, with every establishment that serves more than crisps seeing fit to label themselves a ‘gastropub’, it’s refreshing to discover somewhere that’s actually deserving of the title. The Caley Sample Room’s commitment to using artisan suppliers and…
Oscars Bar and Grill
1–2 Moat Place, Edinburgh, EH14 1NY
Considering its off-centre, primarily residential location, Oscars is a surprising find. Where perhaps a ‘Queen Vic’ style local is expected, the reality is more of a gastro-experience, with ambient lighting, comfortable seating and impressive…
Shapes Restaurant
Bankhead Avenue, Edinburgh, EH11 4BY
Note: subsequent to this review Shapes have altered their food and drink offer. The is now open only at lunchtimes, serving soup, salads and daily hot dishes, as well as coffee and afternoon tea. An industrial estate in Sighthill is an unlikely setting…
Charleston Restaurant
Gala Maybury Casino, 5 South Maybury Road, Edinburgh, EH12 8NE
To travel beyond the front desk of this neon-lit 1920s landmark you must first join Gala Casinos, surrender an ID, register your name and address and look into one of the many wall cameras for a photograph. Now free to roam, diners walk up the art deco…
The Boat House
22 High Street, South Queensferry, City of Edinburgh, EH30 9PP
The undisputed gem in South Queensferry’s culinary crown, The Boat House has great Rail Bridge views, relaxed surrounds and a confident, creative pair of hands in the kitchen. Split into two parts – with a newly renovated seating area upstairs sans…
