The best restaurants in Fountainbridge / Craiglockhart Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh and Lothian

Amazing experience of a full Scottish. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff. The food is fresh and so tasty. Really enjoyed it.

I visited Hanks to get my breakfast on the way to work. My colleagues are regulars here so I thought I'd give it a try. I was able to get my potato scone rolls which were very nice but they didn't have any mint tea. I had to go elsewhere for that which was a bit disappointing. Other than that it was good.

What a nice breakfast! We enjoyed a delicous stay there and would always come back! Thank you! Also we love to see a vegan Café with so many options!

Agradable cafetería local con comida sencilla pero buena! El café también es bueno. Estuvimos allí para el desayuno, pero también hay opciones de almuerzo, creo.

Este lugar nos preparó pizza vegana sin problema. Alcachofa, origano, aceitunas, salsa de tomate. Simple y delicioso Una verdadera joya italiana!

What a find when needing coffee and a cake on a Saturday morning when waiting for my son to finish up at a nearby birthday party. Lovely, friendly service, good coffee and a lovely selection of snacks. I was able to grab one of the tables and sit and work for a wee bit, just listening to life go by as I did. Magic.

I just hope Crusts is still open after the explosion closing part of Fountainbridge. The food was great and the staff/ladies(?) always helpful and welcoming. I have not been able to turn up there recently because of personal circumstances but Rosie ( my wee dog) and me loved the place and the food

Lovely restaurant, Staff very friendly A well worth visit Great choice of tapas Crispy white fish was awesome my favourite.

Part of me is loathe to review this place as so much of its charm is how local and authentic it feels. But it really is a perfect Edinburgh pub. Incredible selection of whiskeys and very friendly staff on hand to help you pick one (of the 850!), especially Moira. Thanks so much, looking forward to returning here.

Good for late night food when nothing is open.

Perfect coffee and bacon roll, lovely friendly staff, very reasonable!

We enjoyed dinner twice during our stay in Edinburgh. The roasted chicken was delicious and the feta salad was tasty enough that we ordered it again the next time we were there. We enjoyed the slow roasted lamb shank that time at Sofia’s. We also their sticky toffee pudding for dessert which we were told was made with dates… it was scrumptious!! I highly recommend this restaurant.

I'd been meaning to visit this place for years, and now I finally got the chance. Sadly, it appears to be closing, so I probably won't get another chance. The food was excellent, and the service was even better. The kind of friendly family-style place that's rare in Edinburgh these days.

Fantastic little place with friendly staff and great snacks

I phoned to ask about gluten in the dishes and they didn't really know what gluten was. I appreciate that they tried to tell me ingredients of the dishes but I felt uncomfortable ordering from there without clearer information on which items were gluten free. I hope they improve their training and knowledge on this in future and I would be happy to order from there. The guy was very polite and made an effort which was good, but I unfortunately need to feel I can trust a place that they understand the allergens and can give me this information easily.
