The Boat House
22 High Street,
South Queensferry,

The Kilspindie, Main Street,
Aberlady,
East Lothian,

Gallery Café
Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, 75 Belford Road, West End,
Edinburgh,

Edinburgh,
EH1 2JR
The Grassmarket is heaving at most times of the day - whether it's with tourists ambling, hen parties staggering, or sporting fans barrelling their way along the array of bars, pubs, restaurants and pizzerias. With a steady stream of customers outside…
The Glasshouse at Eskmills
Stuart House, Eskmills, Station Road,
Musselburgh,
East Lothian,
EH21 7PQ

The Inn at Kippen
Fore Road,
Kippen,
Stirling,
FK8 3DT
'It's just pub food,' is how owner/chef James Fletcher modestly describes the cooking at the Inn at Kippen. He is wrong. It is how pub food should be, but rarely is. He tries to source ingredients locally - and can evidently cook - and staff are…

Edinburgh,
EH3 9UH
A sweet, unassuming little neighbourhood favourite, Magda has captured the hearts of its Tollcross regulars since it opened in early 2006. Even midweek, the restaurant hums along at a nice pace, catering mostly to families and smaller groups. The…
Mariachi

Monachyle Mhor (Mhor Hotel)
Balquhidder,
Lochearnhead,
Perthshire,
FK19 8PQ
'Do you have a vision of what you would like to drink?' enquires the young Canadian waiter. It's a 'yes but, no but' situation. The hotel is the full stop at the end of six miles of single-track road along Loch Voil, and, although a glass of wine would…

Petit Paris
38-40 Grassmarket, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JU

Edinburgh,
EH8 8AS

Ruan Mai
176 Rose Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4BA
It is easy to dismiss a restaurant that huddles among a gaggle of pubs and fast food outlets on busy Rose Street, but don't let first impressions put you off. You probably still won't be convinced when you enter, as you're confronted by a thatched roof…
The Shore Bar and Restaurant
3/4 The Shore, Leith,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6QW
The Shore is one of those homely little taverns on the Water of Leith that brings a sense of olden times to the dining experience. A pleasant folksy bar gives way to a traditional snug restaurant with white tablecloths, black and white photographs, aged…

Storm
82 West Clyde Street,
Helensburgh,
Argyll,
G84 8BB
They said it would never work in conservative Helensburgh, but classy Storm has gone down as the name suggests: enough diners are braving a waterfront buffeting to make weekend tables scarce. The interior's unfussy whites and the one-page menu's brassy…
Tigerlily
125 George Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JN
Opened in June 2006, this lavish style bar, restaurant, nightclub and hotel set tongues wagging from day one. Luckily, it lives up to the hype, and has already bagged itself an armful of awards. Cherry-picked design flourishes make it stand out in the…

WEST
Binnie Place, Glasgow Green, East End,
Glasgow,
G40 1AW
'He was a wise man who invented beer.' So said Plato, according to the menu at this Bavarian-style bar/restaurant on the edge of Glasgow Green. It would seem the owner is no slouch either, having set up his own brewery on-site to produce house beers in…
The Witchery by the Castle
Castlehill, Royal Mile, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2NF
With arguably one of the best atmospheres of any Edinburgh restaurant, the Witchery deserves its reputation. Entering the original restaurant you feel like Elizabethan gentry, particularly as you take your place on red leather-clad wall benches and…
