Local Restaurants
There are so many restaurants nearby (10 minutes walking distance) it's hard to decide where to go. We've listed a few of our favourites that are within 15 minutes walk from our flat. We've tried to add a good variety of cuisines, but if there's a particular cuisine you're looking for that's not here, ask as we might have a suggestion!
ROLLO
14 Broughton StGreat food, good atmosphere, not too pricey and very nearby
Fhior is fantastic - on the pricey side, but if you're looking for some amazing food nearby then this is one of the best restaurants in Edinburgh that doesn't have a MIchelin star (yet).

Sammy and I have been here a few times, they do good food (Mexican style), have a good atmosphere and they're relatively cheap

The Basement
10a Broughton StSammy and I have been here a few times, they do good food (Mexican style), have a good atmosphere and they're relatively cheap
We absolutely love this place, it's an indian restaurant but it's not your typical curry house. They're open all day, and we'd genuinely recommend going any time, as we've been for breakfast, Lunch and Dinner and all of them are great. It's got a cocktail room downstairs where you can wait for a table - they don't take bookings.

We've been here a few times, they do good mezze style middle eastern food. If it's warm outside they have cute outdoors tables, and they also do Shisha outdoors which is different!

The Lookout by Gardener's Cottage
38 Calton HillExcellent food and amazing views of the whole of the city
As a big steak lover, this is my favourite steak place in Edinburgh. There are three of these restaurants now in Edinburgh, this one in Leith is the original and I'd say the best.

Dusit
49A Thistle StDusit is possibly the best Thai in Edinburgh
This definitely isn't the best Thai in Edinburgh (Dusit), it's just good, however - the rooftop restaurant and terrace have amazing castle views, as well as being a good cocktail bar you can drink in before/after. So still somewhere we'd recommend especially if this is your first time in Edinburgh and want to enjoy a good view of the castle over dinner.
