The Howard Hotel, 34 Great King Street,
Edinburgh,

Café St Honoré
34 North West Thistle Street Lane,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EA
With its wood-panelled and mirrored interior, black and white chequered floors and spindly tables with white cloths, Café St Honoré certainly has the power to make you feel like you’re in 1940s Paris. Fortunately for Edinburgh diners, 2011 Scottish…
Castle Terrace
33/35 Castle Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2EL
The opening of Castle Terrace in July 2010 saw its Edinburgh-born chef-patron Dominic Jack thrust into the spotlight. Having shone at iconic Paris restaurant Taillevent among others, hopes were high and Castle Terrace was quickly awarded a Michelin…

Edinburgh,
EH4 1EZ
This townhouse hotel, part of which was formerly the home of explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton, is located a mile or so west of the city centre in a quiet residential street in Comely Bank. The restaurant and bars are in the basement and there’s a small…
First Coast
97–101 Dalry Road,
Edinburgh,
EH11 2AB
The board outside describes First Coast as a Scottish restaurant, but a quick glance at the eclectic menu reveals the diversity that, combined with consistently high quality, keeps this friendly neighbourhood bistro perennially popular. A great value…
Fishers Bistro
1 The Shore,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6QW
Surely home to some of the friendliest staff in Edinburgh – where else would they scoop up a toddler on arrival and show them their goldfish bowl? Goldfish aside, the focus is on conjuring up well sourced, imaginatively cooked seafood. The bright…
Fishers in the City
58 Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EN
Fishers is the sort of seafood restaurant that you can take fish phobic friends to. Despite the name, they can conjure up excellent 24-day hung beef steaks, with decadent optional foie gras with an ultra rich reduction sure to please committed…
Harvey Nichols, 30–34 St Andrew Square,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2AD
Casting its gaze over St Andrew Square and the New Town, the Forth Floor seeks to be master of all it surveys. Its style is confident and self aware, if somewhat brash, reflecting the general atmosphere of Harvey Nicks itself. Separated from the food…
La Garrigue
31 Jeffrey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DH
La Garrigue has been described as the most authentic French restaurant in Edinburgh and it certainly stands out. Owner and chef Jean Michel Gauffre is passionate about his home region, the Languedoc, and this is reflected in everything from les…
The Grain Store
30 Victoria Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JW
The Grain Store has earned the right to be considered an Edinburgh classic. Nestled in the colourful parade of Victoria Street premises, the restaurant's solid stone walls and worn, dark-wood furnishings make it feel like coming home even on a first…
The Kitchin
78 Commercial Quay,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
Much has been written about The Kitchin in recent years, full of praise for the quality of the food, the inventiveness of the menu, the individual style and commitment of the chef, the abundant demonstration of local and creative sourcing, the fluidity…
Kyloe Restaurant & Grill
The Rutland Hotel, 1–3 Rutland Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2AE
No, Kyloe is not Edinburgh’s latest culinary temple to all things far eastern. Here, they worship something closer to home. Kyloe is Gaelic for ‘highland cow’ and it’s beef that gets top billing at this self-styled ‘gourmet steak restaurant’ in the…
The Mercat Bar & Restaurant
28 West Maitland Street,
Edinburgh,
EH12 5DX
There’s a certain sense of energy and enthusiasm about the Mercat Bar. Staff show impeccable manners, hosting this vibrant venue with an endearing, youthful charm. The pub part of Mercat is on ground level, decked out with luxurious leather sofas and…
20 North Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1YT
Once you have flattened-out the rather fussy rolled-up menu, there is plenty of rewarding reading here for lunch or a night out. This brasserie in the former printing hall of The Scotsman newspaper is ideal for large groups, though there's plenty of…
Number One
1 Princes Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2EQ
Beneath one of Edinburgh's most landmark buildings, Michelin-starred Number One cocoons diners from the outside world within its low-ceilinged, luxurious, deep crimson interior. From start to finish, it’s clear that great care has been taken to ensure…
Oloroso
33 Castle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 3DN
Count yourself lucky if you land a reservation on Oloroso’s roof terrace on a warm, clear day; the vista over the Forth and up to Edinburgh castle is spectacular. The view from inside is no cheap substitute though, and whatever time of year, there’s a…
Ondine
2 George IV Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1AD
The aim of Ondine becoming the first 100% MSC-certified restaurant in Scotland is a lofty one, but one that chef-owner Roy Brett is serious about. Brett intimately knows his seafood and his sourcing. Diners in this buzzing, second-floor space find that…
Plumed Horse
50–54 Henderson Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6DE
Chef Tony Borthwick’s passion and pride have drawn much notice to his small Leith restaurant. A potentially tricky street-corner space derives personality from Wedgwood blue and darkest green paintwork, while clever lighting draws the eye to period…
The Pompadour
Caledonian Hilton, Princes Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2AB
Sweep up the grand staircase at the heart of the Caledonian Hotel, as Roy Rogers and Trigger historically did decades ago, to enter the opulence of the 86-year-old Pompadour Restaurant. The rococo-inspired interiors, large arching windows and…
Restaurant at the Bonham
35 Drumsheugh Gardens,
Edinburgh,
EH3 7RN
An unmistakable boutique hotel vibe permeates the Restaurant at the Bonham. Elegant period features (bay windows, lovely panelling) and brash contemporary touches (oversized lampshades, funky wallpaper) sort of cancel each other out, creating an…
Restaurant Martin Wishart
54 The Shore,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6RA
A meal at Martin Wishart's is pure theatre, filled with wonder and excitement. From the haggis bonbons with your aperitif through an exquisite little beetroot macaroon amuse bouche that literally dissolves on your tongue to raspberry-chocolate stick…
Rhubarb
Prestonfield House, Priestfield Road,
Edinburgh,
EH16 5UT
Sited in an opulent 17th-century mansion in extensive grounds beneath Arthur’s seat, Prestonfield House Hotel and its restaurant, Rhubarb, is a far cry from the slice of suburbia nearby. Inside, layers of rich textiles and heavy prints combine in great…
8 Conference Square,
Edinburgh,
EH3 8AN
It is easy to miss this restaurant, which is part of the Sheraton Grand Hotel and Spa hidden at the back of Conference Square. But it's worth wandering through the maze of conference-centre concrete to find, as the modern take on Italian food is…
Horse Wynd, Holyrood,
Edinburgh,
EH99 1SP
Designed by Spanish architect Enric Miralles, who died before its completion in 2004, the Scottish Parliament building occupies an architecturally diverse corner of Edinburgh at the foot of the Royal Mile, with Dynamic Earth, the Queen’s Gallery and…

19 Elm Row, Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH7 4AA
At the back of the famous and delightful delicatessen is the long, glass-ceilinged, bustling caffe bar. Serving coffees, breakfasts and lunches, it’s popular and can get very busy, so you may have to book or wait for a table. The menu consists of…
11 Multrees Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3DQ
Valvona & Crolla Vincaffè is an Italian enterprise that covers all bases. The ground-floor café and shop serves coffees and pastries. Upstairs, the restaurant hosts weekly jazz nights and language classes; and a Monday to Thursday ‘tea for a…
The Witchery by the Castle
Castlehill, Royal Mile,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2NF
After dark, crimson lights glow on this 16th century merchant’s house as once the flames must have reflected from the witch burnings on nearby Castlehill. Inside the narrow close, the gothic black and red continues in the original Witchery, while down…
