Iggs
15 Jeffrey Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1DR
Iggs, Edinburgh’s grand old dame of Spanish fine dining, has gone through some changes of late. A recent visit from Channel 5’s Restaurant Inspectors has done away with some of its more individual aspects and given it a bit more mass-market appeal. The…
Home Bistro
41 West Nicolson Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9DB
Quite why owners Richard Logan and Rowland Thomson chose to homage the seventies with their charming bistro isn’t clear, though the wallpaper, trio of flying ducks and elongated wooden antelopes are endearingly quirky. But the nostalgia ends right where…
Howies at Waterloo
29 Waterloo Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3BQ
While things below the waterline have been a bit frantic since the original owners bought back Edinburgh’s two remaining Howies in late 2011, above the surface everything is typically calm. The Waterloo Place restaurant is a stylishly decorated, well…
Steak
12 Picardy Place, Edinburgh, EH1 3JT
Steak is one of a new wave of Edinburgh steakhouses influenced by the likes of London’s much-lauded Hawksmoor. It’s aiming for hi-octane glamour that would be more at home in the Meatpacking district in New York City, but Edinburgh could do with a dose…
Cafe Royal Oyster bar Café Royal Oyster Bar
19a West Register Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2AA
Restaurants come and go in the capital, but few have thrived under the same banner for 150 years. Dining in the Café Royal Oyster Bar you do feel as though you’re travelling back in time, being surrounded by immaculate murals, low-hanging lamps and…
Whiski Rooms
4, 6 & 7 North Bank Street, Edinburgh, EH1 2LP
Despite sitting in the heart of tourist territory, Whiski Rooms attracts a mixture of diners including professionals, locals of all ages and students, as well as the expected flow of visitors. Created in 2011 from a former bank and bookshop, the Whiski…

5b Johnston Terrace, Edinburgh, EH1 2PW

Sweet Melindas
11 Roseneath Street, Edinburgh, EH9 1JH
Sweet Melindas is the very definition of cosy neighbourhood hangout. The one-room Marchmont restaurant’s white-painted wooden panelling, found black-and-white photographs and shelves of assorted bric-a-brac lend it a quaint but pleasant ambience, and…
The Dogs
110 Hanover Street, Edinburgh, EH2 1DR
A dark wooden staircase flanked by statues of the owner’s dogs takes you up to two atmospheric Georgian dining rooms. Low lit by candles, the restaurant is simply furnished with old-school wooden tables and chairs, and of course pictures of those dogs.
Bread Street Brasserie
The Point Hotel, 34-36 Bread Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9AF
Point Hotel, also home to Monboddo Bar and the monthly top-floor Sky Bar, the Bread Street Brasserie is designed to reflect a classic French bistro, kitted out with smart wooden café chairs and polished floors. It’s a large space, which can seem a bit…
Whighams Wine Cellars
13 Hope Street, Charlotte Square, Edinburgh, EH2 4EL
For almost 30 years, stressed professionals have uncoiled at Whighams. At 6pm on Fridays the shadowy cellar’s nooks are jammed, the restaurant side is heaving and the bar stools are occupied by smart ladies gratefully cradling one of 40 wines by the…
Ghillie Dhu
2 Rutland Place, Edinburgh, EH1 2AD
You might have misgivings about visiting a Scottish theme pub, but Ghillie Dhu manages to pull off the shtick without resorting to the expected tartan twee. Instead, the interior is reminiscent of a simple Highland shooting lodge, with exposed…
The Sizzling Scot Steakhouse & Grill
103–105 Dalry Road, Edinburgh, EH11 2AB

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 Birdcage
Stuart House, Eskmills, Station Road, Musselburgh, East Lothian, EH21 7PQ

Shapes Restaurant
Bankhead Avenue, Edinburgh, EH11 4BY
Note: subsequent to this review Shapes have altered their food and drink offer. The is now open only at lunchtimes, serving soup, salads and daily hot dishes, as well as coffee and afternoon tea. An industrial estate in Sighthill is an unlikely setting…

A 17th century coaching house which was also the birthplace of Kincardine’s most famous son, the chemist and physicist James Dewar (inventor of the Dewar – later Thermos – flask), the Unicorn Inn has seen a substantial upgrade since them. Now a smart…
The Kingarroch Inn
5 Main Street, Craigrothie, Fife, KY15 5QA
Never judge a book by its cover because this seemingly simple whitewashed cottage, which sits precariously on a corner of a busy Fife road, might seem a bit bleak and dated yet its below ground level entrance could well be described as a gateway to…
The Haven Bar & Restaurant
1 Shore Street, Cellardyke, Fife, KY10 3BD
Set on Cellardyke’s scenic harbour, you can almost see the Haven having once been the well-worn haunt of smugglers, sailors and fishermen. While it still has the reassuringly comfortable air of an old-fashioned public house, the décor and dining options…
The Glass House Restaurant
80 North Street, St Andrews, Fife, KY16 9AH

No 1 The Bank
The Parklands Hotel, 2 St Leonard's Bank, Perth, PH2 8EB
The range and quality of dining options at Perth’s Parklands Hotel are a welcome rebuff to the notion that hotel restaurants are generally best avoided. The 15-room hotel boasts a lovely location overlooking the South Inch with views of Kinnoull Hill…
The Grill at Dakota Eurocentral
Dakota Hotel, 1-3 Parklands Avenue, Motherwell, Central, ML1 4WG
Dakota is a dark, mysterious looking building, more Gotham than Glasgow, that sits beside the M8 near Motherwell. The interiors too are dark and atmospheric with bold use of black and dark chocolate colours. It has an air of affordable quality about it…
