Scottish taverns have quite a reputation to behold; The Golf Tavern doesn't disappoint. There's no frills, just a classic inn which is the perfect spot to settle in after a day on the golf course. 

With so much to try one visit to Yamato is simply not enough. This intimate dining experience serves authentic Japanese cuisine and perhaps some of the best sushi in Edinburgh. 

The daily ritual at NÀDAIR is drafting the chalkboard menu behind the duck-egg blue tiled walls. To one side various natural wines are scattered across the shells, to the other various dried flowers dangle. This neighbourhood restaurant in Marchmont is a relatively new endeavor began by chefs Alan Keery & Sarah Baldry. The stand out? That almost everything on the ever-changing 5-course set menu has been foraged from Edinburgh’s immediate surroundings, even the in house cocktail infusions. 

Pickled, poached, grilled and baked the brunch scene at Argyle Place is something to behold. If we trust any nation to conjure up the creamiest porridge, it's the home of the spurtle (aka Scotland) and so you can bet just how tasty the vanilla porridge topped with honey roast peach and toasted hazelnuts at this neighbourhood spot is. Porridge not your thing? Don't fret, the ham benedict is something to write home about.
