A Room in Leith
1c Dock Place, Edinburgh, EH6 6LU
If you pitch up here late or without booking, it may be wise to have a plan B. On sunny days, the waterside tables outside fill up fast with people enjoying a platter of mussels and a well chosen glass, while for chillier occasions, there’s candle…
A Room in the Town
18 Howe Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6TG
A Room in the Town resembles the well known and colourful mural lining its main wall more often than one suspects. High jinks and merriment co-exist alongside locals having a casual meal in the simply furnished and softly lit, long dining room. Staff…
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…
Absolute Thai
22 Valleyfield Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9LR
Tucked behind the King's Theatre, Absolute Thai is a hidden gem. Admittedly, first impressions may be a little less generous – the aesthetic is certainly skewed more towards unpretentious café than exclusive dining. However, this friendly, family-run…
Ann Purna
45 St Patrick's Square, Edinburgh, EH8 9ET
Having undergone a makeover in 2008, the white tablecloths, lace curtains and doilies that once gave Ann Purna the air of a 1950s living room have been replaced by an unfussy but smart, contemporary décor. The cosy St Patrick’s Square restaurant still…
Beirut
24 Nicolson Square, Edinburgh, EH8 9BX
Welcome to Edinburgh’s first Lebanese restaurant, which has a sleek modern interior, scenic views adorning the walls and the cream of Beirut’s music scene on the plasma screen. Sourcing Lebanese ingredients from suppliers in London, all dishes are…
Bigos
277 Leith Walk, Edinburgh, EH6 8PD
There is a home-spun image created by the rough hewn wooden word 'Bigos' nailed on to the front of this tiny restaurant. And despite the dangerous looking agricultural implements and animal skins hanging on the walls, Bigos does without doubt have a…
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…
Blackcherry Café
29 Grassmarket, Edinburgh, EH1 2HS
If it’s a hangover breakfast, pre-lecture fuel-up or lunch-hour pitstop that’s required, Black Cherry in the Grassmarket is there to satisfy. A tiny but cheery café serving breakfast rolls, sandwiches, wraps and bagels, coffee and cakes to students…
The Blue Parrot Cantina
49 St Stephen Street, Edinburgh, EH3 5AH
With 17 years of producing spicy delights from under its bejewelled wings the Parrot can lay claim to status as a Stockbridge institution and it’s easy to see why it has survived so long in locals' affections. The menu may not stray too far from…
Bluerapa Thai
6 Torphichen Place, Edinburgh, EH3 8DU
Given the number of Thai restaurants operating in Edinburgh at the moment, any new contender is going to have to go out of its way even to be noticed. The owners of the family-run Bluerapa Thai in Haymarket do at least have the advantage of ten years…
Bonsai Bar Bistro
46 West Richmond St, Edinburgh, EH8 9DZ
Pruning. An under-rated skill, but in the world of tiny trees – as in Japanese restaurants – a vital one. Luckily they have it in spades at Bonsai, with a commendably focused menu that doesn’t try to cover too many bases. And, where they do go in for…
Brazilian Sensation
117–119 Buccleuch Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9NG
From the outside, Brazilian Sensation looks unprepossessing, even puzzling, with its life-size bikini-clad model perched in the window. Inside, this restaurant – unique in Scotland – serves hot and cold snacks including the typically Brazilian pão de…
Broughton Delicatessen
7 Barony Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6PD
Recently voted among the top 50 delis in the UK, this little deli/café champions the relaxed, community-based ethos of Broughton Street. There’ll be no pursed lips if you sit all day over your coffee and a book, there’s no BYOB corkage, and regular…
Buffalo Grill
12–14 Chapel Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9AY
For some it may be a let-down to find that buffalo is not actually on the grill, but any disappointment should be tempered by some rather fine steak. After all, that's what customers have been coming for for more than twenty years. But before jumping…
Buffalo Grill
1 Raeburn Place, Edinburgh, EH4 1HU
For some it may be a let-down to find that buffalo is not actually on the grill, but any disappointment should be tempered by some rather fine steak. After all, that's what customers have been coming for for more than twenty years. But before jumping…
Café Domenico
30 Sandport Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6EP
Café Domenico may be a stone’s throw from Leith shore’s Michelin-studded gastro corner but it's a million miles from its swish neighbours in style. The interior is mostly narrow and hall-like, covered in space-enhancing mirrors, and there’s little else…
Café Marina
61 Cockburn Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1BS
With ancestry of Edinburgh’s legendary Elm Row deli, it’s not surprising that Marina Crolla places an emphasis on using good quality, simple ingredients in her home-style Italian lunches. The blackboard behind the counter shows off an endless list of…
The Cellar Door
44–46 George IV Bridge, Edinburgh, EH1 1EJ
Located on the Old Town's busy George IV Bridge, the Cellar Door dishes up sweet treats and coffee in a small street-level patisserie, while hidden from view downstairs is the restaurant. The unassuming interior has high ceilings, warm beige walls and…
Chop Chop
76 Commercial Street, Edinburgh, EH6 6LX
With a hugely successful restaurant, a wholesale operation and TV appearances with Gordon Ramsay under her belt, Jian Wang’s Chop Chop is already a success story. It stands to reason that expansion was on the cards, and as such the Leith branch has…
Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street, Edinburgh, EH3 8DT
Be sure to phone up in advance of heading to Chop Chop, not least because the well-lit, no-frills canteen is busy at the quietest of times. The newer Commercial Street incarnation, with its classical Chinese prints and more clinical décor, generates a…
Double Dutch
27–29 Marshall Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9BJ
Under new management since the summer of 2008, but still trading under the same name, any former Dutch influence which this café boasted has long since disappeared. There’s plenty to take its place, although it could be argued that the extensiveness of…
Dragon Way
74–78 South Clerk Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9PT
Dragon Way is certainly not your run-of-the-mill Chinese restaurant. Yes, the friendly staff serve up generous portions of shredded duck rolls and sesame prawn toast, spicy Lar Chee beef and slightly-less-spicy Cheung Bau chicken. And yes, you can get…
Empires
24 St Mary's Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1SU
Family run and with the emphasis on fresh, simple Turkish dishes, Empires is like another world just off the Royal Mile. With a custom-built and beautifully carved interior on two cosy levels, this magical space is adorned with traditional rugs…
L'escargot Blanc L'escargot Blanc
17 Queensferry Street, Edinburgh, EH2 4QW
Cosy L'escargot Blanc in the West End is slighter cheaper and more bustling than its Broughton Street sister restaurant but is trying to maintain similar standards – with not always perfect results. It has done this by introducing some quality local…
