This shop is a little off the beaten path, but if you’re looking to take someone on a rainy day date (or you’re just too lazy to microwave yourself some soup – which I feel), head over to Maki Ramen and watch cars and people walk by while you guzzle down a bowl of hot ramen. Don’t forget to read the post-it note memories and doodles left on the wall by other customers, and maybe add your own to the mix!"
"We love taking fresh, locally-sourced ingredients and turning them into delicious dishes, offering a modern or traditional take on Scottish cuisine. Our seafood comes from the west coast of Scotland and we use local…"
"The menu has been carefully prepared to bring a touch of home cooking to the heart of Scotland for all to enjoy. An ideal place for an intimate dining experience and the chance to enjoy authentic food."
"Established way back in 1962, this affordable veggie restaurant sits pretty on a sloping New Town terrace, a stroll away from Princes Street. Diners queue to have their plates piled high with salads, quiche, vegetarian haggis, crepes and more, followed by surprisingly indulgent puddings. Hendersons runs a deli upstairs from the basement restaurant, as well as a couple of vegan offshoots elsewhere in town, but – especially when there’s live jazz on a Friday night – the homey cosy vibe makes the Salad Table in particular an Edinburgh stand-out."
"Henderson's is a well-known and very popular vegetarian restaurant on Hanover Street but they also have a presence in the west end under St. John's church on the corner of Lothian Road and Princes Street. This fantastic location caters for up to 80 people in an atmospheric, barrel-vaulted dining room. Whether you want a light snack and a coffee, soup and a sandwich, or a tasty veggie lunch with a glass of wine, you can find it here."
"The Oxford is a small pub down an old side street in Edinburgh's new town. It derives its name from the Edinburgh offices of Oxford University Press, which in the early years of the twentieth century were based opposite. The Oxford is just two rooms, a slim bar where customers can stand two-deep facing the counter, and a slightly larger back room heated with a coal fire."
"This cute, cosy space is home to some of the best quality gelato and chocolate Edinburgh has to offer. The key to all Mary’s products is freshness. For both her soft, moreish truffles and creamy gelato she uses fresh ingredients with no preservatives - this means everything is just that little bit more delicious!"
"A post shared by Mary's Milk Bar (@marysmilkbar) on Feb 21, 2020 at 1:59am PST. Mary’s Milk Bar is as cute-as-a-button. This quirky parlour serves ice creams, sorbets and chocolates with daily changing flavours that are mixed up every morning."
"If you’re looking for a good classic then Scotts is the venue for you. From burgers to mac ‘n’ cheese, they serve up tasty traditional fare at a reasonable price point. There’s a terrace looking over the gorgeous old town for drinks, and the interiors are clean and modern for a neutral backdrop to your event."
"Green tile, brown leather and arched Georgian windows lend an elegant feel to this modern cafe, which combines fine Scottish produce with great value. Fill up on a breakfast (served till 11.45am) of eggs... Top ChoiceCafe in Old Town"
"Also on The Royal Mile, adorned with fairy lights, is Monteith’s Kitchen and Cocktail Bar. This is a cozy basement hide-out that serves incredible cocktails and small plates at the bar and a full seafood and steak menu in the restaurant. Monteith’s has a tucked-away feel to it, and you’ll believe you’ve stumbled upon a secret basement restaurant no one else knows about."
"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."
"Roots’ motto - “where food doesn’t cost the earth” - alludes not only to their environmentally-friendly commitments, but also to their affordable menu. Offering a variety of healthy and delicious options, including exciting salads and homemade soups, stews and pasta dishes, lunch starts from just £3.
