http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33421 Have been here many times before and as usual it did not disappoint. Good food, friendly service and great value. There is a wide choice on the menu (and on specials board).
My wife had lentil soup as well as mackerel pate with oatcakes while I had the homemade burger. Portion sizes were big and together with two drinks only set us back £22.
This place never seems to be in various restaurant listing publications but it is well known to people from the Leith area as a place to be treasured.
Kitchen open 10 am - 10pm.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33421 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33390 On Saturday nights the bar is packed as they have live music. Even when it is quieter it is nice to sit down with a nice pint.
Family friendly.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/33390 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/28902 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/28902 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/28610 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/28610 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/27409
Below is Khushis Diner, a local institution, which produces fine and original curries at reasonable prices . Bright and buzzing, it’s a perfect place for a good catch up or a pre-show bite to eat and the open kitchen just adds to the atmosphere. There’s a huge selection of homemade curries on offer but it’s hard to resist the temptation of old favourites cooked to perfection such as their sweet, coconutty lamb korma.

Khushi’s BYOB policy means you can bring your own wine, or better still a cold pint from the Blind Poet upstairs. A perfect combination before heading next door to sample some free festival comedy in the Counting House.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/27409 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19732 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19732 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13748
Minutes from the hell of the Grassmarket and refreshingly free of stag parties and tourists.

A fantastic selection of ales, cracking selection of whiskies, gins, rums and vodkas, friendly staff and friendly locals (albeit friendly by Edinburgh standards).

A proper, old fashioned free house.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/13748 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11652 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11652 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10451 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10451 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8007 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8007 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7998 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7998 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7989
Its near the wonderful seaside promenade, with about 45 min if walked in full.

The path to Cramond Island is only walkable when the tide is out, so take some water with you in case you'll get trapped there with the tide rushing in.

Nice for doggies, kiddies and their owners as there is a big beach, too.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7989 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7978 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7978 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7976 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7976 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7958 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7958 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7930 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7930 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7929 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7929 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7928 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/7928
