"Offering simple healthy food that is full of flavour, Loudons Cafe & Bakery offers delicious home made treats made in their on-site bakery. Using high quality ingredients, and organic produce, breakfasts at Loudon’s are utterly delicious. Diners can tuck in to a variety of “Benny’s” – slang for eggs Benedict – complete with smoked salmon, cajun spices or haggis, or choose from french toast, smoothie bowls or super food pancakes and much much more."

"Loudons, a simple but stylish café and artisan bakery, is an independent Edinburgh brand with a strong ethos focused on creating brilliant breakfast food for all appetites. The original branch is located in Fountainbridge, with a relaxed interior suitable for all sorts of meet-ups and all sorts of brunches!. They offer an impressive selection of bread and cakes baked on-site fresh every day."

"Loudons is a stylish, spacious café in Fountainbridge that's ideal for getting some work done, or just relaxing on one of the comfy couches. They offer home-made breakfasts and cake, with gluten-free and dairy-free choices too. Their cooked breakfasts also come with a choice of brown and gluten-free bread."

"Located right in the heart of Edinburgh, Urban Angel is a fantastic meeting place for those looking for great food, fantastic coffee and filling breakfasts.

An institution for breakfast in the city, diners can enjoy their great breakfast and brunch menu all day long."

"A wholesome deli that puts the emphasis on Fairtrade, organic and locally sourced produce, Urban Angel is also a delightfully informal cafe-bistro that serves all-day brunch (porridge with honey, French toast,..."

"The Pantry's success speaks for itself, having made it to the finals of the The Food Awards Scotland 2017. They continue to be one of Edinburgh's most popular places to go for a delicious breakfast and brunch, with their locations in Stockbridge and Colinton drawing in customers near and far. If you are up and out before 11am, you can choose from on of three fry-up options: ''Pimp My Fried'', ''No Small Fry'', or ''The V-Guy''."

"With so many fancy eggs Benedict variations as well as the likes of fig confiture and orange whipped ricotta on your morning sourdough, you know they won’t be going halves on the presentation here. The Pantry is the ultimate brunch spot in Edinburgh if you want something absolutely delicious and, of course, easy on the eye. Plus, their latte art is mind boggling!"

"A post shared by Finn & Bear (@finn.and.bear) on Feb 25, 2019 at 5:30am PST. Finn & Bear located on the Shore next to Toast is also open 7 days a week serving lunch, brunch, and dinner. It has a rustic interior with wooden floors and reclaimed furniture and an outside waterside seating area which makes it a popular location all year round."

"This aesthetically pleasing restaurant is all whitewashed walls and stripped wooden tables and serves deceptively pared-back dishes that burst with flavour. Much of the food is sourced locally, such as the asparagus, which is grown in Angus just over an hour away, while the beremeal and malted barley bread is baked on-site daily and served warm from the oven with Fhior’s house-made butter."

"Since opening Fhior in summer 2018, chef Scott Smith has been busy wowing food critics and putting his stamp on restaurant-centric Broughton Street. His previous project, Norn, down in Leith, was good—maybe excellent—but Fhior is even better, slicker, and more focused. Smith has a lightness of touch and just the right amount of everything: inventiveness, wit, and skill."

"Teuchter's Landing is a great little pub close to the docks at Leith. The pub is housed in a quaint and attractive stone building that was once the ferry terminal for boats arriving from Aberdeen (Teuchter, pronounced choochter, is a lowland Scots name for a highlander) and it has retained much of the original stonework. The interior is clad in warm wood with a huge fire to warm patrons on winter nights and the extra seating outside includes a wonderful floating pontoon."

"Teuchter’s Landing has one of Edinburgh’s best beer gardens, a wide array of whiskies and some incredibly hearty meals served in mugs. Cup-a-Soup and Lemsip once fought over the right to use the slogan “hug in a mug” – if either party had visited Teuchtar’s Landing in Leith, they’d hand over the slogan after any one of their comforting mugs. Tuck into a mug of Cullen Skink, Haggis Stovies, Haggis Neeps and Tatties, Mac and Cheese or some chunky chips."

"This bar is located in the Shore area of Leith and its outdoor seating area is always popular in summer. However, the warm and homely inside area of this bar is an even bigger draw in winter. A formal restaurant (A Room In Leith) lays adjacent, but it's the mug menu of Teuchters Landing which is an absolute steal."

"What:Monteiths is another restaurant nestled away down the backstreets of Edinburgh’s Old Town. Head down a tunnel made of twigs and decorated with fairy lights to find the restaurant’s small courtyard area. Here you can tuck into hearty Scottish dishes including hand dived scallops and a venison Scotch egg while sitting under the stars – the ideal setting for a romantic meal out.Where: 61 High Street, EH1 1SR"

"Tucked away down one of the Royal Mile’s atmospheric closes lies Monteiths – a boutique cocktail bar & restaurant. We’re sure you’ll be drawn in by their intriguing archway of twigs and twinkly lights, which add to the cosy and intimate setting of the restaurant. A favourite of locals and visitors alike, Monteiths is a must for relaxed dining and innovative cocktails."

"Former street food stall Alplings has put down permanent roots in Leith (Photo: Alplings). After the success of their street food stall, Alplings have set up a more permanent home in Leith. The cafe offers Alplings’ signature hearty alpine cuisine (including dumplings, goulash, spätzle, potato rostis and schnitzel), all for £8 or under."

"A post shared by Alplings (@alplings) on Sep 7, 2018 at 3:35pm PDT. From a city on the side of a mountain, why not sample some cooking from the Alps?. This unpretentious restaurant in Leith brings hearty mountain food to the Edinburgh clientele."

"Lulu bar and nightclub has a classy vibe with really tasty cocktails, located on George Street in a Georgian building house this 21st century nightclub is certainly stylish and Insta worthy!. If you like to get dressed up for a night out, this is the perfect club for you. This venue features a Saturday Night Fever style dance floor, with plenty of comfy seating areas so you can have a drink and a break from dancing."

"If you like to get dressed up for a big night out and you’re looking for a trendy venue then Lulu on George Street might just tempt you. The club is underneath the popular Tigerlily and it features a classic Saturday Night Fever-style lighted dance floor. There are plenty of sofas and seating areas for a rest between dances and there’s also a VIP area and private rooms for hire."

"Amid the swanky shops and bars of George Street (Edinburgh’s answer to Chelsea), Lulu is a decadent slice of luxury. Cocktails and bubbly are the order of the day, with full-on magnums of champagne served on ice. For the full VIP treatment, request to be put on the guest list, or book a private booth with table service."
