If it's a truly Scottish whisky experience you're looking for then this is the place, right on the Royal Mile you couldn't get any more authentic than this bar - it's the real deal.

This is a fairly new spot - a little hipster, but no pretence! You'll only find locals here and they've a super delicious menu (lots of fish and veggie options), despite being a bar! On the top of my list these days :)

Food Scene

A classic shore bar with outdoor seating right on the water of Leith. Gastropub food, great ales, I recommend the fish & chips - but if you're feeling brave the haggis, neeps and tatties are the best!

One of the top five coffee shops in Edinburgh, the best coffee in the Shore. I recommend the flat white and if it's sunny it's a nice spot to people watch!

The best pizza in Edinburgh - just 10 min from the flat, it's unique and small and you'll need to make a reservation if it's a Fri or Sat night. Very cozy and lovely chat from the owners! Delicious!

Majority of restaurants stop serving dinner around 9pm - this is a gem for take-away when you're arriving late or indeed to just to get dinner organised! Simple, tasty, delicious Indian street food and curry classics. Pick this up when you're out on the walk or get it delivered straight to the flat!

Proper Indian food, served up in style. The restaurant itself is just breathtakingly beautiful. You can see and smell the dishes being cooked up as you enter and if you have to wait for a table in the underground bar then consider yourself lucky, as the drinks are to die for too!
