The best restaurants in Southside / Newington Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh and Lothian

Popped by this newly refurbished police box for a drink after work today and wow! It was perfectly brewed, great tasting and really friendly service. What better way to spend an afternoon than chilling in the sunny St Patrick Square with a coffee! Would totally recommend and will definitely be back.

Last year, mum and I found Max Bakes. Mum had haggis and black pudding and I had feta and spinach. I had never had haggis or black pudding (always put off by the ingredients 🤦‍♀️) I tried mums and vice versa...both were delicious! This year we planned to hunt Max Bakes down, worrying he may not be here this year, and much to our delight we found him in the exact same spot! (later we found out he is a permanent fixture not just for The Fringe) We order two haggis and black pudding rolls and they were as good as we remembered! Two very happy travellers 😁

We were gleefully welcomed by our proprietor, Vivienne at 11pm, well past her normal check-in time. That was a delight in itself! She has lived in Edinburgh her whole life so she is a wealth of information regarding things to do, places to go and sites to see. Truthfully, you can't do Edinburgh wrong. It is a lovely lovely city. We were within walking distance of the Royal Mile and enjoyed the 15-20 minute stroll into the heart of the city. Our rooms were spotless and quiet. Breakfast was divine and Vivienne is every bit as warm and friendly in the morning as she is late in the evening! The whole experience was a 10! Thankyou Vivienne!!

Saw this shop at the end of the walk to Arthur's seat and am genuinely surprised of how good the taste of the hong kong style milk tea is. Not overly sweet and has a flavourful tea taste. The blueberry tea had tons of blueberry in it and is absolutely refreshing after a long walk. Would definitely recommend a fellow hong konger or anyone needing a nice drink to this place.

Buen pub. Se estableció el distanciamiento social y el sistema unidireccional. Buena selección de cervezas y rones. Servicio muy amable.

Could not fault this beautiful little pizza shop. The owner was really friendly. And the pizza’s were proper style pizza could not fault. We we would highly recommend if looking for pizza in the area. Also ordered 3 little cannoli which were beautiful.

Finally there is an Authentic Chinese grill in Edinburgh!!!!!! 1£ Lamb skewers and 12.99£ Scottish fresh Lobster!!

My suggestion is that once in your life you must to try the pizza At pizza tree , could be a quick lunch to eat there or take away , so I've tried both and the taste still the same ... highly recommend thanks guys

we went here on a whim, however the sushi was amazing !! Small and cosy, but the staff were friendly :) i can definitely tell that they value their customers a lot :)) My friends really enjoyed the ramen and okonomiyaki, the sushi was great too n

The staff were really friendly and took the time to go through all the different flavour combinations. The price was really good considering all the cakes are baked on-site and they offer a student discount. The white chocolate filled cupcake I had was really moist and tasty without being overly sweet. The latte I had tasted more like a cappuccino but considering how new the business is I feel they are still finding their feet. There are only 2 tables and 2 chairs (so seating for about 4) but the decor is so cute and the seating was incredibly comfortable.

Had our wedding reception here and highly recommend it. Great venue and fab staff. We were married in Greece a few weeks ago and they had our wedding pics running on a tv screen and projector in main hall which was a really nice touch. Canapes were arranged for beginning of the night and a buffet later on with good selection of food.

Exceptional service leaving me with a smile on my face every time! Serving amazing vegetarian wraps 😍

Prime location for fringe punters. Currywurst was on point, if a bit expensive - £10 for 2 bratwurst, sauce and a small quantity of bread. There isn't much atmosphere as it's an outdoor venue. There is no external seating. Order your foods, pay your monies and leave.

Very tasty, I would suggest you to book a table because it is a small restaurant and lots of people love it! Great for veggie/vegan & curious folk ! 🌱🐣
