The best restaurants in Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh and Lothian

Best cappuccino in town! Need to come back for the linguine though 😀 The panini look great. Their bread looks delicious. Hubby did enjoy his panino very much.

I've always wanted to have a meal in Dine and it certainly lived up to my expectations. The food was incredible and the service excellent. Would highly recommend.

I was tempted to pay this cafe a visit since it looks really appealing. We had 2 flat white and the lady was very nice. However, the coffee was really really bad we couldn’t drink it. If you’re used to drink good quality coffee this is not the place for you.

This is hands down the best breakfast roll you'll find! The staff are lovely and the location is amazing, just opposite Haymarket train and tram. I don't know how they make their eggs so fluffy (it's amazing) and the bread is always fresh, don't miss out on this breakfast roll!! SERIOUSLY!

Consistently great service from a busy and engaging team. Superb eats, coffee etc etc. tiny space with tables outside but the staff lavish attention on customers.

An outstanding dining experience from start to finish

All the classic sweets and Scottish fudge and tablet.

I was so disappointed in this place! After being there for a meal with my friends and place being absolutely roasting and us complaining about it several times however we decided to return for drinks in their “wine bar” however situation was changed because of the baby at home so we couldn’t make it, I gave them a call 3h prior our arrival to say we can’t make it, to which very rudely I was told that they will charge me 10£ per person!!! Not per table, but per person!!! I didn’t even manage to hang up before my card was already charged 40£ I am absolutely shocked about the attitude and the price they charge. I would never return even if living in the area and have passed this around my friends to not return either. Very disappointed!

Incredible value for money. Best in Edinburgh.

Moonwake is a cool place and that's my first tip. Tip: It gets cold here, even under the heat lamps but bring a coat and come anyway. This is a review of the Moonwalk Taproom. Yeah, there's a brewery here and from those clean and shiny vats come some great tasting, local and craft beer. But what else can I say about the brewery? I suppose I could say that the open entrance space has been used for a local pop up market and it was petite but fun. There were just a few stalls but each one was local, quality and good. The main reason, unless you want to look at shiny vats, to visit is the taproom. The taproom is up a flight of stairs, is on a balcony and overlooks the brewery. Isn't that a great place to enjoy freshly poured pints? Staff here are friendly and since they make the beer on offer are way more involved than some city centre franchise clone. You can meet the owners here. Order at the bar or at the table. I've talked through what I feel like and have had recommendations. Tip: Moonwake is a local treasure, isn't huge so you can strike out and turn up when there are no free tables. Consider getting in touch if you want to bring the office or a group of friends. Pizza! For at least half the time I've been drinking here there's been a deal with Pizza Geeks. That's a brilliant local pizzeria. Use their app to do an "at table" order. Frankly, beer from the brewery served with freshly made pizza carried over the bridge from the local restaurant is amazing. Tip: Follow Moonwake on social media. They're lovely, transparent, informative and it's the best place to keep up with their latest brews and events. I'm a fan but I'm yet to try their e-commerce offer. If I buy a crate of their beer then I'd drink it! [May 22 update - even better with beer garden] [September 22 update - still good] [April 23 update - really enjoy their market events, recommend following on social to find out about them] [July 23 update - growing and successful but still feels indie and authentic] [October 23 update - Moonwake Beers are superb and they have a knack for great guest taps too] [March 24 update - So much happening here that it's worth signing up to the newsletter] [October 24 update - they span their event social media into a different account. Bizarre decision but worth following]

Very helpful, knowledgeable and friendly staff

Yummy food! A variety too. Freshn always ...and really good . Nice owners too. Was really glad Adam took me there.

Wow, it's been a long time since I've had such a great meal. The atmosphere was great. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. The staff that we had were jolly and helpful. We booked, and it was a good job we did. I strongly recommend that if you want to go, you do the same.

A distinctive and aristocratic place, very suitable for those who love an elegant atmosphere

Worst rice I've ever had. Dry and undercooked
