"Timberyard nails so many of the requirements for an excellent meal out: expect unusual ingredients and exciting combinations that run from drinks to dessert, plus a hipster vibe. It’s a family-run business, and owner-operators the Radfords – along with their extended team of local growers, breeders, producers and foragers – have you in very safe hands. Time Out tip: It’s always worth asking the waiter to elaborate on the minimal menu descriptions, as the combinations are often more intriguing than at first glance."

"Visitors always leave Timberyard amply impressed, as it really couldn’t be any hipper!. Set in a sleek industrial warehouse, complete with arty exposed brick and carefully selected furnishings, this family-run extravaganza of an eatery champions local artisan producers, growers, breeders and suppliers. For days that demand outdoor dining and boozy lunches, the south-facing sun trap of a yard is delightfully unrefined, yet stylistically seamless."

"The first thing that hits you at Timberyard is the sense of space: the high, bright ceilings with nary a tartan or tweed. The atmosphere feels slightly Nordic, a bit like a barn, while echoing its roots as a former timber yard. The restaurant is often booked solid months ahead; it's one of Edinburgh's top restaurants, and for good reason."

"This bar and restaurant from the Stereo team doesn't even need to flag vegan options on its menu because the whole damn thing is free from any animal products. Offering all your favourite comfort eats, from burgers and macaroni cheese, to laverbread cakes with streaky bacon, they're easily one of the best vegan restaurants in Edinburgh."

"Harmonium has got to be the hippest, coolest vegan restaurant in Edinburgh. Located in Leith, it’s well worth the walk [or bus] from the city centre. Their menu is fairly laid back and consists of stone baked pizzas, quarter pounders and delectable desserts."

"What: Providing customers with incredible rooftop views towards Edinburgh castle, Chaophraya on Castle Street is the place to go a sophisticated Thai meal. However, an added bonus at Chaophraya is that it has an outdoor section with a retractable roof meaning that as soon as the weather allows, you can stuff your face with pad Thai while sitting in the open air.Where: 33 Castle Street, EH2 3DN"

"One of the most romantic restaurants in Edinburgh, Chaophraya is bringing you food, booze and stunning views. Sat high above the city, the Thai eatery fronts an incredible menu alongside vibrant cocktails and gorgeous vistas through its floor-to-ceiling windows."

"This authentic Thai restaurant offers traditional curries with rice, and any dish can be made vegan upon request, making compassionate dining super-simple."

"Whatever you do, don’t touch the nose of Greyfriar’s Bobby! ***Before you leave, be sure to visit Greyfriar’s Bobby, a statue that commemorates the Skye Terrier that became famous for allegedly spending 14 years guarding the grave of his owner, until the dog died on 14 January 1872. Whatever you do though, do NOT rub Greyfriar’s Bobby’s nose. Shockingly enough, rubbing the statue’s nose will not inundate you with good luck and will piss off locals since you are inadvertently rubbing off the statue’s paint, an act that leads to the corrosion of the statue."

"If you don’t know the story of the best wee dug in Scotland, then ask while you’re getting your round in this traditional Celtic pub. It’s one of the most historic and best Edinburgh pubs and an excellent stop on any stag night. Greyfriars specialises in cask ales, gins, and whiskies, but also offers hearty pub food."

"Good news for claustrophobic people, it has really big rooms so you want to have to feel like you are suffocating. They have different rooms for different music genres, so it provides the option to choose from few given rooms. The bouncers are pretty cool people too, that matters a lot in a club."

"Located in the heart of Edinburgh, Bourbon Bar and Club is a brilliant destination for cocktails, dancing and DJs aplenty. A popular choice amongst the city's student population, the weekly calendar offers a heady mix of bargain drinks and RnB tunes."

"Located at the foot of Edinburgh Castle, St Cuthbert’s Parish Church is the spire you can see poking through the Edinburgh skyline whenever you see panoramic pictures of Edinburgh Castle itself. Expect to hear the Church’s ten bells on Sunday mornings and see beautiful wall paintings, stained glass windows and an organ built in 1899. Child friendly: yes, but no particular activities are available for them on a regular basis Address: St Cuthbert’s Parish Church, 5 Lothian Road, Edinburgh EH1 2EP Opening hours for visitors: Tue to Thu 10am – 3pm More information here."

"Situated at the foot of the Castle and nestled amidst its churchyard and an abundance of greenery is St Cuthbert’s. It is widely believed that a church has been standing in this spot since 850 AD, making it technically Edinburgh’s oldest building. The architecture and decoration of the church is particularly ornate, which made it a source of some controversy when it was first designed."

"The Royal Yacht Britannia is one of Britain's most popular attractions associated with the monarchy. Over the years, the Queen has welcomed heads of state and famous people from around the world to this luxurious vessel. After more than 40 years serving the Royal Family, the 60-year-old yacht was sent to Leith, Edinburgh's port area, as the centerpiece of the Britannia Visitor Centre."

"Take a guided tour of the ornate floating royal residence (and the naval quarters below) and learn about life aboard the yacht which served the royal family for almost 50 years.Ocean Terminal, Leith, 555 5566, royalyachtbritannia.co.uk.

"It may not be sailing the seas anymore with the Royal Family in tow anymore, but the Royal Yacht Britannia is still working hard in her retirement as Scotland's Best Visitor Attraction. Nonetheless, many visitors were less than pleased with what they found when they climbed aboard the ship."

"All the recommendations so far have been along the Royal Mile, the lovely stretch of interconnecting streets which run from Edinburgh Castle down to Holyrood Palace. It’s not exactly a mile long, but it’s near enough, and is filled with a variety of attractions, from the above mentioned, through to souvenir shops, restaurants and pubs."

"Dismal past aside, the Holyroodhouse is still a great place to walk around and learn about Scottish history and the royals who called this palace home over the centuries. An audioguide is included with the price of admission (£14) and offers a great overview of the history."

"Onetime haunt of Mary, Queen of Scots, with a long history of gruesome murder, destructive fire, and power-hungry personalities, the…"

"Located under North Bridge, between the Old and New Towns, the zigzagging rooftop of Waverley Station – Edinburgh’s main railway station – is another iconic feature of the city’s architecture. Its vast glass roof makes the interior light and open (provided the weather cooperates) making the first impression of Edinburgh a pleasant one."

"Inside Waverley Railway Station every Friday around 40 stalls come together to form this exciting market offering fresh hot food and ethical gifts from Scottish craftmakers"

"The grand seat of local government was built in the 1880s at the high point of Glasgow's wealth. The interior is even more extravagant than the exterior, and the chambers have sometimes been used as a movie location to represent the Kremlin or the Vatican. You can have a look at the opulent ground floor during opening hours. To see more, free guided tours are held at 10.30am and 2.30pm Monday to Friday; it's worth popping in earlier that day to prebook."

"Dominating the east side of George Square, this exuberant expression of Victorian confidence, built by William Young in Italian Renaissance…"

"The sister site of Edinburgh restaurant The Gardener's Cottage, The Lookout is a stunning rooftop bar and restaurant, known for its top-rated food. The Lookout has a minimalist, almost Scandi feel – with contemporary, pared-back dishes which allow each core ingredient to shine. Situated on Calton Hill, this establishment boasts some of the best views Edinburgh has to offer."

"This fairly recent addition to the Edinburgh dining scene is by the team behind The Gardener’s Cottage. The combination of incredible cooking with stunning views is pretty hard to beat. Treat your guests to floor to ceiling windows looking over the cityscape around a private chef’s table."
