The menu is small but simple with hog roast sandwiches on soft white baps in small, medium or large sizes."

"Oink serves one thing, and one thing only – a hog roast, and man are those porky baps tasty!. As one of the best value restaurants in Edinburgh, it’s recommended you arrive early, especially if you’re hoping for crackling. You’ll know you’re in the right place when you spot the whole pig roasting in the window."

With pizza and pasta galore, everyone loves La Favorita and the staff, in true Italian style, make a big fuss over the kids. Definitely not one to miss."

Although there’s an established menu, they’re generally happy to let you come up with your own."
