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…
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…
La Favorita
325–331 Leith Walk,
Edinburgh,
EH6 8SA
The glow from the twin log-fired ovens is the first indication that pizza is taken seriously at this Leith Walk eatery. La Favorita combines the lightest, crispest bases (also available gluten-free) with a long list of both classic and more inventive…
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…
Abstract
33/35 Castle Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2EL
It's important to set aside an entire evening for a visit to Abstract: a quick bite before curtain up at one of the nearby theatres would be doing it a great injustice. There's just so much vying for your attention here, from the mirrored pillars and…
blue
10 Cambridge Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2ED
In applying Slow Food philosophies, properly educating its staff and delivering superbly designed dishes, blue is doing a lot of things right. A fastidious sourcing policy forms the restaurant's backbone, the name of the game being those elusive goals…
Café Marlayne
76 Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EN
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…
City Nightclub
1a Market Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1DE
Scotland
From student nights to big house and guest DJs. See listings for selected highlights.
The Dogs
110 Hanover Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DR
Ascending the stairs of this sharply decorated, stylish bistro is a little like walking into a friend's lovely living room for dinner. Stark white walls and simple furnishings are set against pictures of the eponymous dogs liberally scattered around the…
Avoca
4–6 Dean Street,
Edinburgh,
EH4 1LW
This is a bar that knows exactly what it's doing when it comes to food. It's not attempting to be a bistro: it's emphatically a bar and loves being a bar. Taste is everything in this little relaxing snug; music and chat don't intrude on your dining and…
Coconut Grove
3 Lochrin Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9QJ
The Coconut Grove is a small, friendly diner by Tollcross – an ideal spot for an enterprising restaurant, which the Grove certainly is. For instance, the subtle décor eschews the heavy-handed approach of sombreros and chilli motifs, replacing them with…
Eighty Queen Street
80 Queen Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4NF
Soft candle-light, live jazz and good cocktails are surely on the recipe for a good start to any night out. Eighty Queen Street displays these elements in abundance to ease you into your meal. From an extensive menu, which is served from 8am Monday to…
Iglu
2b Jamaica Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6HH
Iglu is a venue that takes its organic, local and ethical food policy very seriously. But don't feel guilty if you need to take a taxi there should you find it hard to locate: it's hidden away from the main drag of the city centre and lurks…
Loon Fung
2 Warriston Place, Canonmills,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5LE
Still going strong after 36 years, with a loyal following among locals, Loon Fung is undoubtedly doing something right. Specialising in Canton-style seafood, a two-person starter of chopped scallops with cashews and crisp vermicelli gives some…
Monteiths
57–61 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SR
Spanking new Monteiths brings a touch of glitz and glamour to this section of the Royal Mile, more commonly associated with pubs and tourist attractions. The entrance is down a vine-arched and lit alleyway next to Moubray House, at the bottom of which…
The Orchard
1/2 Howard Place, Canonmills,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5JZ
The Orchard has done its best to be as accommodating as possible: you can cosy down on the squashy sofas over brunch at the weekends; grab a window table and watch the passing crowds or barfly it at the large central bar. Dark wooden furniture contrasts…
Empires
24 St Mary's Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SU
Colourful, cluttered and slightly chaotic, Empires is richly decorated with ornate wooden panelling, hand-painted ceramics and cascades of mosaic lanterns twinkling overhead. By day it is bright and cheery, offering healthy lunches and herbal teas, but…
Garibaldi's
97a Hanover Street, New Town,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DJ
The extensive drinks menu warns of cocktails containing no less than 50ml of spirit per glass, and patrons would be well advised to take note: Garibaldi's sells some of the strongest alcoholic concoctions in town. It's located down a flight of stairs…
The Jam House
5 Queen Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1JE
Dusky purple lights cast romantic shadows on the walls of this funky, jazz-centric venue once occupied by BBC Scotland. Guests dine on the balcony above the main stage where soulful musicians entertain throughout the evening. A fixed-price set menu with…
The Jazz Bar
1 Chambers Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1HR
Cool beats from global sounds to straight ahead jazz. See listings for details.
Olive Branch Bistro
91 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3RX
Broughton Street is not lacking in places to eat, so any restaurant looking to make its mark has to offer great food with an atmosphere to match. The Olive Branch has both in spades. In a compact, almost post-industrial-style setting, candle-lit tables…
Urban Angel
121 Hanover Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DJ
More urbane than urban, this bustling Hanover Street basement is an ever-popular choice, and it's easy to see why. With simple prints on the white walls, solid pine furniture and flock-printed menus, the aesthetic lends the restaurant a cool…
Zucca
15–17 Grindlay Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9AX
Zucca, which is situated next door to the Lyceum Theatre in Edinburgh's West End, opened in September 2007. The brainchild of Richard Glennie, previously of Santini's, it comprises two very separate areas: on the ground floor there's an easy-going café…
