The Abbotsford
3 Rose Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2PR
At first sight, this classic city centre bar looks like an old-fashioned spit and sawdust affair. But there's a real diversity of clientele here, from chattering ladies who lunch to the pinstriped suit brigade and hungover tourists seeking sustenance.
91 Montgomery Street,
Edinburgh,
EH7 5HZ
Walking into Renroc is a warming experience: enthusiasm permeates the place and a friendly welcome is quickly followed by personalised service. The area upstairs is stylish and airy, while the bistro-style basement is warm and sleepily lit, and a real…

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…
Ristorante Gennaro
64 Grassmarket,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JR
The busy Grassmarket area attracts a mix of tourists, revellers and locals, and the same can be said of this family-run establishment. It claims to offer a true taste of Italy, and that starts from the moment you are greeted by one of a clutch of…
Hanedan
41 West Preston Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9PY
The fact that Hanedan's owner and chef, Gursel Bahar, has previously flexed his culinary muscles at the Four Seasons and with Sir Terence Conran at London's exquisite Quaglino's restaurant will come as little surprise to anyone who's sampled the…
Iris
47a Thistle Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1DY
Iris only opened its doors in December 2007, but, thanks to the competence of owners Mark Lawrence and Kenny Waugh – part of the team that founded the Apartment and the Outsider – the restaurant already seems confident. It's charming too: three petite…

Edinburgh,
EH1 3JT
At the corner of Picardy Place, right on the apex of Edinburgh's 'pink triangle' is the Street, a sociable, gay-friendly bar that also serves up tasty grub. It's shaped like a fishbowl, the wide glass walls and tall stools allowing guests to see and be…
Biblos
1 Chambers Street,
Edinburgh,

Browns Restaurant and Bar
131–133 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JS
With a kitchen that can handle close to a thousand covers on its busiest days, Browns is no modest operation. No surprise, given that it's one of a chain of 14 owned by the gargantuan Mitchells and Butlers pub operators. The corporate ethos is classic…
Creelers
3 Hunter Square,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1QW
Creelers at Hunter Square has been wowing fans for almost 13 years. A range of tourists, regulars and locals – though not the goths that hang out by the Tron – make up the clientele in this establishment, which comes to life in the evenings. Although…
Ecco Vino
19 Cockburn Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1BP

La Lanterna
83 Hanover Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 1EE
While there's a tide of upmarket, designer trattorias sweeping the capital, the hearty, rustic charm of a place like La Lanterna in the city centre could easily be overlooked. The cosy interior, with low lighting and varnished wooden furniture, is miles…
