Dragon Way
74–78 South Clerk Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9PT
Dragon Way is certainly not your run-of-the-mill Chinese restaurant. Yes, the friendly staff serve up generous portions of shredded duck rolls and sesame prawn toast, spicy Lar Chee beef and slightly-less-spicy Cheung Bau chicken. And yes, you can get a…
Beirut

The Tailend Restaurant and Fish Bar
14–15 Albert Place,
Edinburgh,
EH7 5HN
The original Edinburgh posh chippie, opened by a partner in the original famed Anstruther Fish Bar, the Tailend coined a format that is gathering pace across the country. Don’t expect silver cutlery and napkin-flicking – the takeaway box of haddock…
Union of Genius
8 Forrest Road,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QN
Elaine Mason had regulars just two weeks after opening Edinburgh’s first soup café last year. No matter how popular the little shop, she won’t expand the bitesized menu, preferring to do one thing well. Six soups are chalked up, all relying as much as…
Urban Angel
1 Forth Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3JX
Seasonal, local and organic are the buzz words for these bright, informal, modern bistros. A high proportion of the menu is made up of daily specials making the most of what produce is best that day. A nourishing parsnip soup is enlivened with mustard…
Caffe Espresso
15 Bank Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2LN
The Brits might love to queue, but there’s got to be a good reason. So when you see a gaggle of solicitors, judges and students patiently waiting to reach the counter of this galley-like Italian café, you might want to get in line. Have they come for…
La Favorita
325–331 Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA

Henderson's Vegetarian Restaurant
94 Hanover Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DR

Dusit
49a Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DY
For the past ten years, Dusit has been a strong contender for the best Thai food in town due to the owners’ aesthetic vision of the appearance and flavour of their dishes. Takeaway, à la carte and the ‘floating market’ menus are available, the last…
Turkish Kitchen
120-122 Rose Street South Lane,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4BB
Located down an unassuming lane off Rose Street, Turkish Kitchen does a thriving takeaway trade but is well worth seeking out, not just for a post-pub kebab, but for a slap-up banquet of traditional Turkish cooking. Fret-cut sconces, decorative mirrors…
Appetite Direct
42 Howe Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6TH
Most of Appetite Direct’s business is outside catering, from small private dinners to weddings and gallery openings, and their shop is no run-of-the mill deli. Every day their small kitchen produces several curries, quiches, interesting seasonal veg and…

Suruchi Too
121 Constitution Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 7AE
Sitting directly opposite the Festival Theatre, Suruchi will always attract late-night diners and pre-theatre bargain hunters. The real challenge is to inspire regulars in this highly competitive neck of the woods. The owners seem alive to criticism of…
New Edinburgh Rendezvous
10a Queensferry Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4PG
After the dubious-looking shared entranceway with its faded carpets and dirty walls, the restaurant at the top of the stairs is a surprisingly bright, clean and welcoming place. It does double-duty on the service front, offering a set price buffet at…
Lancers Brasserie
5 Hamilton Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5BA

Itihaas
17–19 Eskbank Road, Dalkeith,
Edinburgh,
EH22 1HD
A corner position in Dalkeith’s town centre gives Itihaas lots of daylight from windows on two sides, enhancing the appeal of this pristine, owner-run establishment. Sepia-toned pictures add atmosphere, but ethnic style is soft-pedalled in favour of…
Delivino
6 King Street,
Crieff,
Perthshire,
PH7 3HA
Delivino, an elegant, tasteful café, deli and restaurant full of light and families sharing good food and wine over convivial conversation, may feel metropolitan and Mediterranean – but it’s in the heart of Crieff. The deli, which sells continental…
Fit Food Bistro
Tiso Glasgow Outdoor Experience, 50 Coupar Street,
Glasgow,
G4 0DL
A pleasing antidote to the chips-with-everything culture, Fit Food prides itself, as the name suggests, in offering wholesome sandwiches, light meals and snacks. Which is perhaps no more than you would expect, located as it is in Tiso’s outdoor activity…
24 St Andrews St,
Glasgow,
G1 5DP
Stonking baps filled with great combos such as grilled Mediterranean veg and cream cheese or salami and sweet chilli. The soup and sandwich deal £4.95 is a bargain. There are at least two freshly made soups each day – time it right and it is whizzed up…
KoolBa
109 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,

Berits & Brown
6 Wilson Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1SS
In the heart of the merchant City, which is particularly good looking at night these days, Berits and Brown offers a small taste of a New York style neighbourhood diner. It is a big draw for wine buffs – any bottle on sale in the off license can be…
SoHo
84 Miller Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1DT
SoHo is a low-ceiling lively place that specialises in bar meals and pizzas and seems one of the few places in town to be regularly busy even midweek. Service is sharp and generally smiley and the menu is Mediterranean-influenced, with a Scots slant…
La Vita
161 Queen Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3BJ
You can’t get much more central than La Vita’s, and despite being spread over three floors it manages a cosy, traditional Italian vibe. It is a busy place, with booking on most nights recommended, and you are still likely to be just a few centimetres…
The Chippy Doon The Lane
84 Buchanan Street, McCormick Lane,
Glasgow,
G1 3AJ
Whether the lane in question exudes shabby charm or is plain old shabby, the presentation inside this welcoming chippy 'doon' it is undeniably stylish. Attention is paid to the smallest details, from the lemon wedge garnish and paper tub of home-made…
Café Hula
321 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3PT
It isn't Morocco and it ain't hot outside but somewhere just north of Sauchiehall St, time moves a bit more slowly. For a long, lingering coffee and some people-watching through the huge windows, this is ideal. But Hula does meals, too, and a loyal core…
Fratelli Sarti
42 Renfield Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1NF
There is an expectation with Italian restaurants that the experience be one of feeling loved and entertained as well as fed, yet few manage to pull off the feat with such aplomb as Fratelli Sarti. There's a uniformity of excellence across all three…
Charcoals
26A Renfield Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1LU
Situated on one of the city's busiest traffic streets, it would be easy to mistake Charcoals for just another takeaway, but its restaurant is surprisingly cosy. Under new management since January 2011, staff explain details of the menu as they flit…
Where the Monkey Sleeps
182 West Regent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4RU

Go Slow Café
452 Victoria Road,
Glasgow,
G42 8YU
Six years of taking it easy at Go Slow Café (to paraphrase the blurb), but the place is thriving and popular, so it’s no mean feat that during the busiest times owner/factotum Rose manages to keep the happy, calm vibe alive. Like most places run with…
Enjoy
393–395 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9HY
The décor of Great Western Road’s Enjoy is fairly unassuming. The airy wooden-floored room is filled up with chunky leather sofas and bucket armchairs, which surround low-slung coffee tables. The walls are plain but for occasional minimalist framed…

The Flavour Co
517a Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8HN
Owner and manager Natalie Minnis’ petite juice bar may only have six seats but what it lacks in size it makes up for in quality and charm. All of the tasty smoothies from their extensive range are made to order, and even the juices that they have at…
Mise en Place
122–124 Nithsdale Road,
Glasgow,
G41 5RB
The locals in Pollokshields are very lucky to have this café/deli on their doorstep. It’s the ideal place to visit when faced with an empty fridge. Bright airy clean space with a reassuringly small menu, given the size of the room. The simple starters…
La Tea Doh
136 Nithsdale Road,
Glasgow,
G41 5RB
In a world without supermarkets, La Tea Doh would be just the sort of local one-stop café/shop to visit daily … and indulge in a sugary treat too. Among the other groceries (including an impressive tea selection), deli treats and organic goodies, they…
Café Pop
657 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8RE

Heart Buchanan
380 Byres Road,
Glasgow,

Brooklyn Café
21 Minard Road,
Glasgow,
G41 2HR
Year of Opening: 1931. This fact alone says so much about the obvious enduring appeal of the Brooklyn Café. Generations of local custom must mean dramatic change is difficult but while crowd-pleasers like the famous ice-cream remain (plus the many…
