Brooklyn Bar & Grill
33 Ingram Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1HA
Proper good ol' US of A food is hard to find in Glasgow so new restaurant Brooklyn deserves attention for dishing up an oft-overlooked cuisine that's tricky to find and hard to sustain in these parts, opening as it does on the old Ad Lib site. Brooklyn…
Buffalo Grill

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…

Hamburger Heaven
36 Broughton Street,

EH1 3SB

Hard Rock Café
18–20 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2PF
Brace yourselves. A trip to the globe-straddling Hard Rock Café is more experience than mere meal out. Leave any resistance at the door and let your smiling server lead you into a bear pit of gaudy cocktail-fuelled groups on work nights out…

153-163 The Broadway, Wimbledon,
London,
SW19 1NE
Henry J Beans Wimbledon is a great cocktail bar and restaurant with a more contemporary design than some of the older Henry J Beans venues, but retaining all the charm that you would expect from any Beans bar. Our restaurant is very popular, with a…
Illegal Jack's
113-117 Lothian Road,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9AN
Despite the name, Jack’s is no haunt of tequila-fuelled banditos but a bright and simple fast-food joint serving Tex-Mex fare. Although the menu is far from extensive, this doesn't detract from the experience. They prefer to offer a few things, serve…

Katie's Diner
12 Barclay Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HP
It’s a fine establishment that can pull off relaxed ambience with sophisticated flair, but Katie’s Diner does just that, attracting as many loyal locals as curious passers-by. With a lip-smackingly good menu, husband and wife team Geoff and Kate Ness…
Ketchup
44 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
There’s no such thing as 'just' a burger at Ketchup – maybe you want cheese, bacon and chipotle mayo with pickles, onion and salad? Or how about Portobello mushrooms, garlic parmesan aioli and balsamic onion relish? Have it without the bun, without the…
Mamma's American Pizza Company
30 Grassmarket,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JU
Once the go-to place for Edinburgh’s pizza guzzlers, Mamma’s still enjoys a lively following on the weekend, given its Grassmarket location. It may lack the bone fide mamma-in-residence of its title, but certainly tries to make up for that with the…

Glasgow Hilton, 1 William Street,
Glasgow,

The New York Steam Packet
31 Rose Street Lane North,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2NP
The rather grand-sounding name is something of a misnomer for one of the smallest dining spaces in Edinburgh. Duck into an unassuming entrance that has lain hidden from Rose Street throngs for the best part of 40 years, haul up the spiral staircase and…
Nick’s
168 Hyndland Road,
Glasgow,
G12 9HZ
It’s love at first sight at Nick’s – what a stunning interior, all exposed brickwork, dark wood, slightly industrial, Brooklyn-loft kind of vibe. A newcomer to Hyndland Road, having opened in late 2009, it takes over the site of the unique…

St Louis Cafe Bar
734 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 7RD
Situated minutes from the Clyde tunnel on Dumbarton Road, the recently opened St Louis Café has an eccentric cool vibe – mismatched furniture, green and purple décor and huge globe lights hanging from the ceiling. The café holds little more than a…
Smoak
61 Old Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G3 8RF
Hidden away in a quiet bit of town, Smoak comes across like a welcome response to the proliferation of the feminine afternoon tea trend. You’ll find no finger sandwiches or dainty pastel cupcakes here. Instead they specialise in hot sandwiches of the…

Wannaburger
7–8 Queensferry Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4PA
A first date joint this is not, but there’s something refreshingly simplistic about Wannaburger. Forget table service: a recent revamp means customers order at the counter, then pick up when a buzzer says it’s ready. Forget plates too, with various…
