The Bon Vivant
55 Thistle Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1DY
With its Gallic flair for gluttony and enough wine on hand to raise the level of the Loire, this Thistle Street bar is aptly named. Oenophiles will be bowled over by a menu that offers some 42 wines, by the glass alone, and – if you really want to show…
L'escargot Bleu L'escargot Bleu
56 Broughton Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3SA
The justly popular L’escargot Bleu generates an air of welcome as you enter the bright, airy rooms one flight up on Broughton Street. The buzz feels embracing rather than exclusive, as much coming from the patrons as the proprietors. Co-owners Betty…
Mithas
7 Dock Place, Edinburgh, EH6 6LU
From the people behind the ever-popular Khushi’s comes a more glamorous taste of India that freely announces its ambition to fit right in with the neighbouring Michelin-starred restaurants of The Shore. Carefully arranged low lighting and classy dark…
Hanam's
3 Johnston Terrace, Edinburgh, EH1 2PW
Hanam’s is rightly revered for its Kurdish cooking. The restaurant is spread over two floors of a characterful period building, including a terrace that’s – unsurprisingly – in demand on summer days and a separate dining room that's ideal for private…
Leven's
30-32 Leven Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9LJ
With its shiny surfaces, colour-changing LED lighting and leather chairs, Leven’s could be any type of eatery on first appearances. It’s only on entering that the warm welcome and seductive sweety-spicy smells make it clear that this is a Thai…
Frankfurter Eck
62 Elm Row, Edinburgh, EH7 4AQ
German food can suffer from people's unfair preconceptions. Seek out Edinburgh’s first German restaurant, Frankfurter Eck to have these prejudices overturned. Behind a blink-and-you’ll miss it frontage on an unlikely block is a basic interior with…
Kampung Ali Malaysian Delight
97–101 Fountainbridge, Edinburgh, EH3 9QG
Kampung Ali is larger and brighter than the Lee family’s Clerk Street original Kampong Ah Lee. A huge Kuala Lumpur skyline dominates the airy dining room, contrasting rather oddly with a ceiling of Roman frescos remaining from the previous occupant.
The Hidden Lane Tearoom
8 Argyle Court, 1103 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8ND
Tucked down a cobbled lane off Argyle Street, the Hidden Lane Tearoom is one of those rare places where everything comes together seamlessly. The décor is shabby chic – all duck-egg blue highlights, floral bunting, artfully mismatched furniture and…
Bonsai Bar Bistro
46 West Richmond St, Edinburgh, EH8 9DZ
What Bonsai Bar Bistro lacks in size, it makes up for in atmosphere. Bustling and sociable, you’ll have some friendly banter with your waiter, and wind up in conversation with your neighbouring table. The menu, based on small dishes to share, invites a…
Rivage
126–130 Easter Road, Edinburgh, EH7 5RJ
Owner and head chef Ryad Meeajane oversees this stylish Easter Road restaurant from behind the open tandoor oven counter while wife and co-owner Catherine runs an efficient and informative front of house. Attention to detail stretches from preparation…
Fanny Trollopes
1066 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8LY
From its cheeky name and origin story (see the portrait inside or on their website) to the lively weekend crowds attracted by pre-theatre deals, Fanny's doesn't seem exactly a subtle place. Yet a glance at its inventive menu contradicts that: it's a…
Tanjore
6–8 Clerk Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9HX
Relative newcomer Tanjore brings a wealth of south Indian cuisine to its Newington locale, wrapped up in a friendly and relaxed café setting. Owner and head chef Boon Ganeshram switches between open kitchen and compact dining area, describing tapas…
Gusto & Relish
729–731 Pollokshaws Road, Glasgow, G41 2AA
You may not want to leave afterwards but the half-hour walk back into town (for City Centre dwellers) is recommended to burn off the calories. That's because the food here is moreish in the extreme – and that's not just the mountainous meringues. The…
Mother India
28 Westminster Terrace, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7RU
A much-loved Glasgow institution, Mother India's flagship restaurant is set over three floors, each with its own unique character. The small dining area on the ground floor is bright and casual, the first floor is grand with dark wood and candles, and…
Word of Mouth
3a Albert Street, Edinburgh, EH7 5HL
It’s only five years old, but already Word of Mouth is one of Edinburgh’s definitive neighbourhood cafés, a recommended stop not just for the food but for the range of activities they manage to cram into the small dining space. An open mic poetry and…
Art Lover's Café
House for an Art Lover, Bellahouston Park, 10 Dumbreck Road, Glasgow, G41 5BW
The Art Lover’s Café offers an elegant, yet relaxed dining experience. The walls of its serene white dining room play host to frequently changing art exhibitions, but there’s artistry on the plates too. Salads and upmarket sandwiches (think char-grilled…
Broughton Delicatessen
7 Barony Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6PD
It’s rare for a café to try so hard to be all things to all people and not overstretch itself. Broughton Delicatessen doesn’t disappoint, though, with its front shop selling take-out snacks like baguettes, grilled sandwiches and crepes alongside cakes…
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…
Biscuit
17 Skirving Street, Glasgow, G41 3AB
Biscuit’s pastry chef/owner has appeared on TV showing us how to bake some of the scrumptious sweet treats available here – and maybe she’ll share her recipe for a successful café too. Exceptional, creative cakes (including the 'whoopie' – dubbed the…
Cup
311 Byres Road, Glasgow, G12 8UQ
The first thing to mention about Cup is that it’s a tearoom rather than a café, offering a wide range of speciality teas and infusions that add twists to the traditional black, green, and oolong varieties. The second thing to mention is that this isn’t…
Eat Deli
16 Busby Rd, Clarkston, Glasgow, G76 7BG
The rather prosaic name gives no indication of the high quality of food served and on sale here. Bei & Nannini coffee, Ferrarelle mineral water, Suki fair-trade tea and Stornoway black pudding are just a few of the superior brands. There’s clearly a…
