Abstract
33/35 Castle Terrace, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2EL
There's a piece of advice for women in the film LA Story - once you've put on all your jewellery and accessories, check the mirror and then remove the piece that catches your eye. And if Abstract excised just the mirror-ball pillar from amongst the…
Amber
The Scotch Whisky Heritage Centre, 354 Castlehill, The Royal Mile, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2NE
This gem of a restaurant may seem to cater to tourists, being, as it is, slap-bang on the trail, but it is quite a find and well worth the trek to the Royal Mile for locals. Set beneath the Whisky Heritage Centre and close to Edinburgh Castle, the plain…
Appetite@Rowland's
42 Howe Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6TH
Tucked away on the north side of the New Town, the Appetite catering company's takeaway venture has long been seen as serving up some of the best food on this side of Princes Street. Providing a sizeable array of gourmet cuisine made with top quality…
Atrium
10 Cambridge Street, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2ED
There's a reason why the Atrium is one of Edinburgh's most renowned restaurants - the food is simply divine. Chef Neil Forbes has affiliations to the Slow Food movement, which means the Scottish/Mediterranean menu is created with an eye not just to the…
Bell's Diner
7 St Stephen Street, Stockbridge,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5AN
A low curtain shields the interior of this high-ceilinged, low-lit room from the eyes of passers-by. Inside, however, a slightly raised timber floor allows diners to look into the street. It's a clever touch that makes guests feel slightly superior to…
Bellini
8b Abercromby Place, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6LB
The sea bass is beautiful. The belly is as pearly white as the moment the fish was pulled from the sea. The pewter-coloured skin is lightly charred and fennel seeds and the merest whiff of earthy truffle oil fragrance the perfectly cooked flesh. It's a…
blue bar café
10 Cambridge Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2ED
Sharing a building with its big sister restaurant Atrium and the Traverse Theatre, blue bar café has the same innovative edge as both its neighbours. Having just undergone a makeover - opting for earthy tones in its décor - this place celebrates nature…
La Bruschetta
13 Clifton Terrace, Haymarket, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH12 5DR
Stressed-out commuters would do well to follow West End residents to La Bruschetta, a tiny, cosy haven, just across the road from the bustle of Haymarket Station. Even during the week the bright, living room-sized restaurant is often packed and has the…
Café Marlayne
76 Thistle Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EN
If you want to secure a table at Café Marlayne's Thistle Street branch this weekend you'd better get dialing. Head chef and proprietor Isla Fraser's reputation for sensibly-priced, ultra-fresh and fidget-free cookery has won this pint-sized New Town…
Café Royal Circle Bar
19 West Register Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2AA
In this fickle, post-modern age, traditions are too often cast aside in the name of progress or mimicked without any real acknowledgement of their value. There are places where traditions are upheld, and done so in with class. The Café Royal Circle Bar…
Celadon
49-51 Causewayside, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH9 1QF
Opened in 2006, this new kid on a slightly out-of-the-way Southside block displays a finesse that belies its relative youth. Eschewing any temptation to Orientalise its intimate 18th century surroundings with exotic gewgaws, Celadon's eau-de-nil walls…
Centotre
103 George Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3ES
So committed are Victor and Carina Contini to creating the fresh, authentic food that is ubiquitous in Italy, they ship the majority of their produce from Milan each week. And not from just any supplier - they make it a point to get to know the…
Chop Chop
248 Morrison Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8DT
It's impossible to miss Chop Chop's bright yellow and red façade, and the décor inside is equally vibrant. The practical tables, paper napkins and simple Chinese art are subtle hints that perhaps the food is this venue's major draw. Guidance notes on…
La Concha
18-24 Deanhaugh Street, Stockbridge,
Edinburgh,
EH4 1LY
Stockbridge's La Concha needs no introduction to its many fans, and now that owner Richard Morana has knocked through the wall to double the size of his formerly tiny restaurant, there's room for many more. Cool new décor in muted monochrome adds gloss…
Creelers
3 Hunter Square, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1QW
It's hard to know what else owner Tim James can do to demonstrate his commitment to the culinary arts. He oversees the curing and smoking of all his fish from personally-selected Isle of Arran fishermen and even sets out on his own boat, Margaret Eliza…
La Cuchara Negra
3 Grove Street, West End,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8AF
La Cuchara Negra (the black spoon) has been something of a work in progress since it opened in spring 2006, and with lunchtime trading planned for mid-2007, this tiny Latin American restaurant is showing it has a big heart. There's no trace of a tacky…
David Bann Vegetarian Restaurant
56-58 St Mary's Street, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SX
Shunning the bohemian stereotype of vegetarianism in favour of minimalist, grown-up sophistication, David Bann's recently refurbished restaurant arguably appeals more to yuppies than hippies. However, despite sleek surroundings, snappy service and…
The Dining Room
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society, 28 Queen Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1JX
The Scotch Malt Whisky Society began over 20 years ago when a group of whisky-loving friends clubbed together to buy a cask of fine malt whisky. Today, the international society has three UK branches (two in Edinburgh and one in London) with more than…
Dionika
3-6 Canonmills Bridge, Canonmills, Inverleith,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5LF
A shabby façade and distinct lack of adornments might put some diners off Dionika restaurant and deli, but if you're after substance rather than style, you'll discover that what this rough diamond lacks in fancy trappings, it makes up for in taste.
Dusit
49a Thistle Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DY
Amid much worthy competition on bustling Thistle Street, this sophisticated little eatery is regularly to be found fully booked on a weekday evening. It's easy to see why. From an intriguing menu that combines quality Scottish produce with imported Thai…
Eastern Spices
2 Canonmills Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5LF
While many Indian Takeaways arrive on your doorstep greasy and cold, Eastern Spices has mastered the art of delivery. It's run by the same company as Blackhall's Bombay Feast and the centrally located Zest, and the menu combines an excellent mix of…
Ecco Vino
19 Cockburn Street, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1BP
If you appreciate the honest virtue of pub grub but hanker after something a little more cosmopolitan, you'll love Ecco Vino. Billed as a wine bar, this intimate Cockburn Street hang-out is distinctly continental. In fact, with its earthy menu of…
The Engine Shed Cafe
19 St Leonard's Lane, Southside,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9SD
In 1989, a disused shed from the Innocents Railway was turned into what is now the Garvald-run Engine Shed - a spacious, airy building with a friendly, community atmosphere, home to a number of initiatives that provide training and work for adults with…
La Favorita
325-331 Leith Walk, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA
Situated halfway down Leith Walk, La Favorita sets itself apart from the selection of pubs, greasy spoons and random electronics shops with modern granite and glass facing, designer lighting, black and white photos of film stars, and clean, contemporary…
Fishers in the City
58 Thistle Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EN
An unprepossessing entry off Thistle Street leads to a theatrical and modern interior with a distinctly nautical feel. Split-level nooks, clusters of bric-a-brac and a splendid wooden boat-shaped bar make up the lower level, with bistro-style tall…
