Guy's Restaurant & Bar
24 Candleriggs, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1LD
It's almost certainly worth booking at this well-established Merchant City favourite. At the end of the bar, the dining area is bright and buzzy, with some of the tables quite close together – more suited to social rather than intimate dining. Service…
Ondine

Café St Honoré
34 North West Thistle Street Lane,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EA
Romantic Café St Honoré feels ideally placed tucked away in its cobbled New Town lane, but quiet locations can be deceiving. Inside, its charming, old-fashioned mirrored rooms are often bustling with exuberant diners. At nearly twenty years old, it is a…
Fishers in the City
58 Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EN
Fishers Restaurant Group now comprises two main branches as well as the Shore Bar & Restaurant, which stands adjacent to the original Leith eaterie. While both the Leith and city centre restaurants bear the Fishers moniker, the two venues couldn’t…
20 North Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1YT
If you wish a little 19th-century grandeur with your dinner, the North Bridge Brasserie will fit the bill. Now a hotel but originally the home of the Scotsman newspaper, dark wood panelling and marble columns give a period feel, while the adjacent bar…
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.
Brian Maule at Chardon d'Or
176 West Regent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4RL
Trained in France, and having lead the Michelin-starred La Gavroche kitchen in London, one expects Mr Maule to conjure up truly accomplished dishes. And he does. Everything from the crisp white table cloths, black leather chairs to the sharply dressed…
Stravaigin 2
8 Ruthven Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 9BG
The younger Stravaigin, located near Byers Road, is an invitingly intimate space if lacking something of the character and quirkiness of the original. The food, however, is all you expect: imaginative combinations from around the globe impressively…
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…
No. Sixteen
16 Byres Road,
Glasgow,
G11 5JY
In this small but perfectly formed restaurant at the bottom of Byres Road, attention to detail is a speciality. Fresh bread comes with a rosemary and parmesan infused dipping oil, simple but stunning. The diminutive size of the kitchen dictates that…
225a West George Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2ND
The sign of a good fish restaurant is how well the front and back of house work in close synchronicity. Gamba has that instinctive, almost telepathic communication between cook and floor staff meaning everyone is alert to the unique properties of your…
The Witchery by the Castle
Castlehill, Royal Mile,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2NF
From its grand seat atop the Royal Mile, The Witchery’s lavishly designed suites and busy restaurant have been drawing a mix of locals and visitors for over 30 years. This medieval merchant’s house is graced with bespoke panelled ceiling, sumptuous…
La Bonne Auberge
161 West Nile Street,
Glasgow,
G1 2RL
Tacked on to the reception area of the Holiday Inn, the overly fussy décor of La Bonne Auberge may make you think that the restaurant hasn’t changed much since the late 1970s when French food became popular in the UK. Still, when the starters arrive the…
Deans at Let's Eat
77–79 Kinnoull Street,
Perth,
PH1 5EZ
Deans @ Let’s Eat in the Fair City’s Kinnoull Street bills itself as 'a true taste of Scotland'. The restaurant’s family team of head chef Willie Deans, his wife Margot, and sons Lee (the manager) and 17-year-old Jamie (already a talented chef), serve…
La Parmigiana
447 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8HH
Behind the frosted glass window is a little nest of beautifully laid tables, deep red walls, dark wood and a ceiling as crisp and white as the stiffly folded napkins. The service, all starched aprons and bow ties, may be formal but it is also friendly…
The Sizzling Scot Steakhouse & Grill
103–105 Dalry Road,
Edinburgh,
EH11 2AB
Tucked away on Dalry Road, the Sizzling Scot Steakhouse & Grill serves exceptional cuts of beef in subtle tartan surroundings. Scottish folk music plays merrily in the background while energetic servers scribble orders. Though the menu is laden with…
Fouters Restaurant
2a Academy Street,
Ayr,
KA7 1HS
Ayr's landmark restaurant was once 18th-century bank vaults, but with space for only about twenty covers the dining room is cosy and intimate all the same. The menu places a heavy emphasis on Scottish ingredients - whether wood pigeon, Stornoway black…
Rogano
11 Exchange Place,
Glasgow,
G1 3AN
For many years the go-to-place for fine dining in luxuriant surroundings, Rogano has been serving high flyers, celebs, and expense account businesspeople for nigh on seven decades. The plush interiors speak of old world wealth with bronze mirrors…
The Sisters Jordanhill
1a Ashwood Gardens, 512 Crow Road,
Glasgow,
G13 1NU
The more bohemian of the two Sisters restaurants is fitted out in rich green and tartan with twinkling lights. The menu is almost identical to its arguably more stylish branch in Kelvingrove, though the atmosphere feels more personal and homey at this…
City Merchant
97–99 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1NP
At 24 years old, the City Merchant is something of a survivor in this fashionable corner of town, where bars and restaurants come and go with alarming speed. It does well from the tourist trade, offering a Scottish theme and terrific local produce…
First Coast
97–101 Dalry Road,
Edinburgh,
EH11 2AB
Anyone who believes great food can’t be found west of Haymarket is missing out. First Coast’s marine wainscoting, cream walls and natural wood create a serene blend of smart, bright and comforting. So it is with the food. A menu featuring grain salad…
The Inn at Kippen
Fore Road,
Kippen,
FK8 3DT
A cosy dining room and convivial environment make the Inn at Kippen well worth a detour. While the food verges towards the finer end of the scale, owner Gordon Wright has made a conscious effort not to get too carried away, keeping the atmosphere, and…
