A Room in Leith
1c Dock Place,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LU
There's definitely room for a branch of this well-established Edinburgh chain in Leith, which, over the past few years has been overly dominated by high-brow and fish-based establishments. The Room in Leith has taken over the popular and comfortable…
Biblos
1 Chambers Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1HR
Located close to the university, Biblos tends to be dominated by members of Edinburgh's student population. The venue has recently undergone a revamp: curtains, comfy armchairs and bright lampshades now lend the space a contemporary, clubby feel. The…
Bijou
2 Restalrig Road,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8BN
At the corner of Restalrig Road, across from Leith Links, guests of Bijou can dine in a small, white sitting room cheerfully decorated with green plants and gold mirrors. The lunch and dinner menu celebrates Scottish cuisine and all dishes come in…
Bisque Bar & Brasserie
Bruntsfield Hotel, 69 Bruntsfield Place,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4HH
The Bisque Bar & Brasserie of the Bruntsfield Hotel has been reborn following a massive renovation. The smaller bar area at the entrance leads into a very spacious, light and airy restaurant area with an appropriately pale-coloured décor. Breakfast is…
Browns Restaurant and Bar
131–133 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JS
With a kitchen that can handle close to a thousand covers on its busiest days, Browns is no modest operation. No surprise, given that it's one of a chain of 14 owned by the gargantuan Mitchells and Butlers pub operators. The corporate ethos is classic…
Café at the Palace
Palace of Holyrood House,
Edinburgh,
EH8 8DX
Nestled into the historic setting of Holyrood Palace's mews courtyard, Café at the Palace isn't just a facility for visitors to the palace and adjacent Queen's Gallery, but a bit of an in-the-know local secret for those with business at the Scottish…
Cafe Hub
Castlehill, Royal Mile,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2NE
Light pours in through the high windows of Café Hub and settles on the cheerful yellow walls of this grand dining hall, that was formerly a church and is now the headquarters of the Edinburgh International Festival. There's a peaceful vibe in this…
Café Marlayne
7 Old Fishmarket Close, 190 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1RW
Both restaurants share the same name, have interchangeable chefs and waiting staff and almost identical menus of gusty, well-flavoured French, no-fuss food with a Scottish twist, but offer quite different atmospheres. The Old Town café is a charming…
Cargo
Edinburgh Quay, 129 Fountainbridge,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9QA
Cargo's chic and airy space has been designed to draw in a hip, young crowd. Large glass panes at the back show off the beer garden by the canal and illuminate a large seating area full of polished black furniture and leather booths. The outdoor area is…
Centotre
103 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3ES
With its funky hot-pink walls, edgy uplighting and smooth background jazz, über-cool Centotre dresses to impress, and equally style-conscious diners pack out the place pretty much every night of the week. The downside of this popularity is that smaller…
Cornerstone Café
St John's Church, 3 Lothian Road,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4BJ
Set beneath the majestic spire of St John's Cathedral, the Cornerstone Café is a cavernous space where gothic meets church coffee morning in surprising harmony. Arching stone walls, synthetic silk table cloths and a dash of peach make this an appealing…
The Dome Grill Room
14 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2PF
Among the many A-listed buildings on George Street, the Dome stands out as both majestic and remarkably unspoiled. The grandiose grill room and cocktail bar – all marble pillars and potted palms – generates a kind of colonial atmosphere, the…
Double Dutch
27–29 Marshall Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9BJ
There's an appealing openness about Double Dutch. Windows take up the length of two walls, and the blonde wood of the furniture and floor brings a clean, bright feeling to the airy space. A small team works in an open kitchen, churning out…
Embark
2 Fountainbridge Square, Edinburgh Quay,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9QB
There's nothing subtle about the polished aesthetic that runs throughout the bars and restaurants of Edinburgh Quay. 'Out with the quiet, in with the loud' is the brazen statement made in these parts, and Embark is no exception. Neon lights and…
The Far Pavilions
10–12 Craigleith Road, Comely Bank,
Edinburgh,
EH4 2DP
There is something reassuring about a long-established restaurant located in the middle of a leafy suburb. Primarily dependent on locals for trade, such places can't afford not to have their main customer base on side. Craigleith's comfortable Far…
Forth Floor Brasserie
Harvey Nichols, 30–34 St Andrew Square,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2AD
It may share space with the pricier Harvey Nichols' Restaurant on the top floor of Edinburgh's most upmarket department store. But patrons to the Forth Floor Brasserie needn't feel like second class citizens as both concerns share the same grandiose…
Forth Floor Restaurant
Harvey Nichols, 30–34 St Andrew Square,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2AD
If you've ever shopped in Harvey Nichols, or even just walked past the window displays, you've probably got a pretty good idea of what its restaurant would look like. Retro-futuristic stylings, crisp white tablecloths and mood lighting from what appear…
Gallery Café
Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, 75 Belford Road,
Edinburgh,
EH4 3DR
Just as the galleries upstairs follow trends in contemporary art, the café capitalises on the current inclination towards fair trade, organic and seasonal ingredients, treating diners to a selection of wholesome, appetising and downright tasty meals.
Ristorante Gennaro
64 Grassmarket,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JR
The busy Grassmarket area attracts a mix of tourists, revellers and locals, and the same can be said of this family-run establishment. It claims to offer a true taste of Italy, and that starts from the moment you are greeted by one of a clutch of…
Gordon's Trattoria
231 High Street, Royal Mile,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1PE
Gordon Scott is keen to promote his restaurant as a family venue. And there is no risk that he will fall foul of the trade descriptions act, with brother Gary imparting his profound industry knowledge, daughters Daniela and Vanessa now involved in the…
The Hudson Hotel
7–11 Hope Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4EL
When this former post office reopened in 2006 as a hotel, the idea was to create the atmosphere of a slick Manhattan hangout in Edinburgh's West End. Brick walls and dark floorboards on the ground floor bar may have you fooled that you're in a trendy…
International Starters
82 Commercial Quay,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
This well-oiled machine, which sits near the banks of Edinburgh's increasingly prosperous Shore area, has something for everyone. With a menu boasting dishes from around the world, the premise is simple: each person selects two or three starter-sized…
The Kitchin
78 Commercial Quay,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
He trained at some of Europe's finest restaurants under Pierre Koffman and Alain Ducasse, so it is not surprising that Tom Kitchin has made such a fast success of his Leith establishment. He returned to Scotland two years ago and within six months had…
Loch Fyne Restaurant
25 Pier Place, Newhaven Harbour,
Edinburgh,
EH6 4LP
For fans of the original Loch Fyne Restaurant on the west coast, this has been a much-anticipated arrival. Situated at what must be one of the best locations in Edinburgh, with spectacular views over the old fishing village of Newhaven and west over the…
Magda
6 Brougham Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9UH
Sparsely decorated and modestly furnished, Magda relies on a large poster of a map of Africa on one wall and the evocative sketch of a dhow inside the menus to set the scene. It could be a place for the adventurous eater to take a less adventurous…
