La Garrigue

0.9 miles
31 Jeffrey Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1DH

It is tempting to describe La Garrigue as an Edinburgh institution. You know the name, and perhaps you’ve long wanted to go. And go you should. Multi-awarded and much-exulted, La Garrigue is Jean Michel Gauffre’s proud paean to the cuisine of his native…

Café St Honoré

1.5 miles
34 North West Thistle Street Lane, Edinburgh, EH2 1EA

Venture down a cobbled New Town lane to find this romantic slice of Paris. With its wood panelling, black and white floor tiles and hazy old mirrors, the atmosphere is classic French brasserie. The food, however, is much more exciting. Under the…

Castle Terrace

1.6 miles

Restaurant Martin Wishart

1.9 miles
54 The Shore, Edinburgh, EH6 6RA

It’s more than that Michelin star. Restaurant Martin Wishart has a certain caché. It is a place to propose, to woo, to seal the deal. If it’s on the expense account, lucky you. If not, buy the ticket, take the ride: choose a tasting menu, with…

The Kitchin

2.0 miles
78 Commercial Quay, Edinburgh, EH6 6LX

Of course, you can melt the credit card with the tasting or seasonal menus at this ultra-slick Leith restaurant, but Tom Kitchin has also brought his Michelin-starred brand of fine dining to a refreshingly wide audience of food lovers. A set lunch menu…
