Eating
Two locations both nearby, Lothian Road and Teviot Place. One of our favourite places to eat. May have a queue but it goes down quickly. Everything on the menu is delicious (and it's cheaper if you go before 6pm). See also its sister restaurant Saboteur.

The best pizza in Edinburgh in our humble opinion, plus it isn't a chain. Also the best fries in Edinburgh - completely unnecessary because you're full of delicious pizza, but also completely necessary. Really handy location if you're headed to the Festival Theatre.

A good stop for a relaxed atmosphere, Scottish cuisine and rugby if it's on. Be prepared, it's one of the hardest menus to choose from.

This has been a more recent discovery and I've been raving about it to anyone who will listen ever since. A beautiful wee Italian bakery with one of the best sandwiches I've ever tasted (the legendary no. 9 - I go for the sweet and smoky topping but you can up the spice with jalapeños). It also serves pastries, coffee and - of course - pasta.

This is real Edinburgh. Leith covers quite a large area, Leith Walk makes for an always interesting stroll and then The Shore has a great selection of food and drink right on the water. Check out Teuchter's Landing and Kings Wark for great Scottish food. Leith is also now accessible via tram!
