Food Scene

Incredible tasting menu, local seasonal produce booking highly recommended well in advance as extremely popular. Fairly expensive but an absolute must for real food lovers.

For a serious piece of meat I would highly recommend this restaurant. South African style dry rubs they offer a range of cuts of high quality meat and a few alternatives should that not be your cup of tea. Be warned the big steak they sell is a challenge but the quality is always excellent.

Mexican tapas bar offers great small dishes all bursting with flavour and good value. In a lively setting this little gem is a great alternative to normal Mexican restaurant.

Drinks & Nightlife

For something a little bit different this 'speakeasy' styled bar is very interesting. They offer a great range of cocktails in a very unique environment. Well worth a visit.

A good alternative to some of the other clubs around George street, Why Not always seems to be a younger crowd and the atmosphere / music tends to reflect this. Always a good night in here.

Entertainment & Activities

The stand comedy club is a great venue offering live stand up comedy every night of the week. I've been here many many times and never been disappointed.

Sightseeing

The famous Edinburgh Castle has to be one of the most popular tourist attractions in the city and is well worth a visit. Steeped in history and with incredible views around the city I would highly recommend this.

This isn't for the faint hearted. It is possible to drive around where you will get maybe half way up which does offer nice views. However, for the really incredible views of the city there is nowhere better. I would say it takes roughly 45 mins to walk up for a fairly fit person.

Parks & Nature

Truly beautiful gardens and free so a great cheap day out. Not far from the city centre on the bus and well worth a visit.
