Guidebook for Edinburgh
Food Scene
The best coffee shop in Edinburgh. They roast the beans on site so the place always smells amazing. Good for take-away or sit in the Nook and watch the regulars come and go.

My favourite restaurant in Edinburgh. They only serve local and seasonal food so the menu changes daily. They offer a tasting menu of about courses that they tweet out in the afternoon but I think you're best booking it and turning up without knowing. Everyone sits at big communal tables. it's about £35 and a total bargain. You'll need to book in advance but they open late during the festival.

Great understated Mexican food in a nice intimate surrounding. Go here for food or drinks. Great for hangovers as it's very dimly lit!

Lovely restaurant that does excellent meat dishes. Naturally their steak is amazing but so are the waffles. Worth booking in advance.

Less flashy than La Favorita this place does excellent pizza. The window seat is excellent for people watching. They have a deal with some of the local pubs where you can get pizza delivered there.

No-one does brunch like Mimi. I am yet to finish one of her giant portions. The cake is awesome too. It can get really busy at weekends so book in advance if you can.

Very highly recommended. They do Indian tapas food. You can share 3 or 4 plates between you. It's busy but they take bookings even during the festival. The food is great (and cheap)

this place is good for lunch, dinner or just drinks. The wine list is incredible. I like the giant bowls of pasta. Plus the intimate location is fantastic without being touristy.

this place does one thing but does it well. Hog roast rolls. They roast a whole hog and display it in the window. You get a giant roll with crispy skin and apple sauce. Delicious.

I'm putting this on here for the afternoon tea alone. It's a real treat in a iconic setting. it's a beautiful country house with peacocks roaming the grounds. Get a taxi so you can drink the champagne!
