Circus
8 St Mary's Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1SU
The stone-walled courtyard in the back of this Old Town café/ restaurant is a mini sun-trap in the summer, and a good spot for enjoying some calm while the High Street might be getting unpleasantly hectic with crowds. Circus is run by the same folks who…
The Salisbury Arms

Opened in June 2011, the Salisbury Arms was the first Scottish venture of the Village Pub and Kitchen group (their takeover of the Sheep’s Heid being a close second). With 39 establishments across the UK their ethos is to keep an independent spirit in…

Café Cassis Café Cassis
Salisbury Hotel, Salisbury Road, Edinburgh, EH16 5AA

Angels With Bagpipes
343 High Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1PW
Don’t let the High Street buskers put you off. Through the back in the restaurant you won’t hear them. Instead, the smart sophisticated décor and modern tableware sets off an approach to Scottish ingredients that acknowledges centuries of continental…
Tower Restaurant
National Museum of Scotland, Chambers Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1JF
For the best view in the Southside, try the roof terrace of the Tower, looking over to the Castle. Inside, the National Museum’s restaurant has dark, glossy tables and a modern take on food. Like the crisp fish finger which really tastes of crab.
Urban Angel
1 Forth Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3JX
Seasonal, local and organic are the buzz words for these bright, informal, modern bistros. A high proportion of the menu is made up of daily specials making the most of what produce is best that day. A nourishing parsnip soup is enlivened with mustard…
Smoke Stack
53–55 Broughton Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3RJ
A meat-lovers’ mecca since 1996, Smoke Stack reinforces its menu’s focus on beef with its spartan interior, the deep-crimson walls visually echoing the shade of a quiveringly rare fillet steak. While there are salads, fajitas and a few vegetarian…
Valvona & Crolla VinCaffè Valvona & Crolla Vincaffè
11 Multrees Walk, Edinburgh, EH1 3DQ
Valvona & Crolla’s Vincaffe is only a short distance but several years away from the densely packed cornucopia of the family-run business’s original branch on Elm Row. With a bright, contemporary décor, evenly spaced, white dressed tables and a bank…

Locanda de Gusti
7–11 East London Street, Edinburgh, EH7 4BN

The Magnum Restaurant & Bar
1 Albany Street, Edinburgh, EH1 3PY
A genuinely warm welcome and an impressive côte de boeuf are but two memorable highlights of a visit to the Magnum. Or, there’s the light, thin pastry of crab and Lammermuir smoked cheese tart and its unusual accompanying salad of red peppers and smoked…
Petit Paris Petit Paris
38–40 Grassmarket, Edinburgh, EH1 2JU

Centotre
103 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 3ES
Centotre manages to pull off a neat trick. Despite the austere, ex-bank interior, from those lost days when financial edifices were akin to cathedrals, it still manages to maintain a feeling of warmth and intimacy in the evenings or bright and breezy…
My Big Fat Greek Kitchen
6 Brougham Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9JH
The back room of this Tollcross restaurant is decorated with a giant floor to ceiling photo of Santorini – where whitewashed villas zigzag the hillside down to turquoise seas below. The whole experience of My Big Fat Greek Kitchen aims to magic up…
