Best Shopping Malls, Outlet and Places in Polmont Area

"It’s hard to imagine a more picturesque market setting than this – Edinburgh Farmers’ Market looks right up at the city’s medieval castle. Every Saturday (9am–2pm) the blue and white striped awnings on Castle Terrace shade an excellent range of products: meat, seasonal fruits and vegetables, jams, chutneys, crusty bread, handmade chocolates and pies. Tasting samples are commonplace, so try before you buy from some esteemed suppliers including Puddledub Pork, natural organic producers Caurnie Soap and – for some famously good Scottish soft fruit – Tay Valley Fruits."

"This market, located on the banks of the Water of Leith, has become one of the most popular in town for a number of reasons. The paella served up there has become something of a local phenomenon while the impressive selection of cakes, pastries and donuts on offer rarely fails to whet the appetite. People also flock to the jubilee gardens each Sunday to sample some of the artisan breads and cheese brought along, and browse the selection of jewellery, arts and crafts."

"Equally worth a visit is Stockbridge Market, located in the leafy Jubilee Gardens on the banks of the Water of Leith. This market is a foodie’s paradise, with over 40 stalls offering a delicious array of international cuisine. You’ll find artisan patisseries and cake shops, delicatessens, fresh street food, seafood and much more."

"Not quite as busy as its big sisters, Stockbridge and Grassmarket markets, but well worth a visit nonetheless. The market consists mostly of food traders, bringing you locally produced and sourced products as well as sizzling hot street food that you can enjoy sitting down at one of the tables. On the first Saturday of the month the market also hosts the Vegan Quarter with a variety of vegan treats to choose from."

According to Happy Cow, if you go into the restaurant itself (on Murray Place, right opposite the Oxfam bookshop and just down from the Thistles) and mention that you are vegan, the staff and chefs are more than happy to accommodate you and veganise menu options on request."

"A post shared by Edinburgh Food Porn & Reviews (@plateexpectations) on Jul 7, 2017 at 3:45am PDT. Part of a chain of three restaurants dotted across Edinburgh, Maki and Ramen offers soothing bowls of broth with braised bean curd (or try the ‘Hell Ramen’ if you dare!) and then plenty of fresh sushi to have on the side or as an additional course. This is probably the best sushi restaurant on this list for vegetarians, too, thanks to its thoughtful and delectable vegetarian set dishes."
