Restaurant which is cool and intimate and with a great view from the windows at the back over the old town and the castle. Best of all is the food - groovy fusion cooking with delicious subtle flavours and very healthy ingredients complemented by excellent wines described egregiously by the proprietor. Hours for lunch are handy - all afternoon - but also good for dinner and in a great part of the town for other features.

George IV Bridge between Greyfriars and the High Street. Quarter of an hour's walk from the Waverley Station and the Mound.
This is a traditional bar on the south side of the city with a cosy atmosphere, excellent beer, a huge choice of whisky and champagne, delicious food (mostly smorregebrod) and a courtyard for secluded al-fresco libations in the good weather.
