The pub sell some really awesome-looking cocktails that are begging to be held while posing for Instagram shots on the rooftop bar, with Edinburgh Castle in the background. Cocktails on offer include amazing slushie Pornstar Martinis and a classic Pina Colada number - not to mention frozen strawberry margaritas, which are perfect for the heatwave we are expecting this weekend (that reminds us to buy more suncream)."

Born from a desire to move past hipsterism-for-the-sake-of-hipsterism, Cold Town House dedicates itself to pretence-free pizza, beer and prosecco.

The optional stuffings are either classic Sage and Onion or, for a more Scottish taste, you can add haggis."

Created by two Berwickshire farmers with a passion for pigs, the first Oink shop launched on Victoria Street in 2008. The menu is simple: pick your size, bread, stuffing and sauce (a medium-size roll is £5.40)."

His previous project, Norn, down in Leith, was good—maybe excellent—but Fhior is even better, slicker, and more focused.
