The best restaurants serving British food in Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh and Lothian

An interesting cafe under a church in Edinburgh. The cafe has limited hours and is run by volunteer ladies of the community. Their scones are tasty, coffee and tea fresh and hot. Unfortunately, their cook was taking a well-deserved week off so there wasn't any soup or hot foods. But we enjoyed visiting the cafe and recommend you support them while in Edinburgh. They raise money for worth causes.

Super delicious menu and lovely people.

Excellent overall, 100% recommended!

They appear to have closed but are giving no information!!! I have a voucher as I have seen other people write here and I can't get any response or money back. It's atrocious. Surely they cannot keep socials open and be listed in Michelin guide when they've gone under by the looks of it. But why so secret with no note that they have closed??

The nicest place we have ever visited for the breakfast! thanks to the very friendly owner ☺️

Very Private dining concept aka Private Kitchen - 4 tables seating for our dinner. Modern Artwork to accompany the tasting. Personalized service per table. 3 hour seating to enjoy a great dinner

My favourite place to get breakfast and brunch in Leith, lived here for 2 years and never had a bad experience or meal, they’ve got great prices, cater to all and it’s just a brilliant little restaurant

We just popped in by chance and got a table, we live very close and had been thinking about it. Great atmosphere and service, the food is very fresh but a couple of our dishes could have been a wee bit better. The roasted cod was more poached, the octopus was nice but the baba overpowered it. A bit more seasoning too, but that's a personal thing. That said, it was lovely and would not stop us going back.

thank you for the warm service. We really enjoyed our time at afternoon tea

We had a dinner party, and the course meal was delicious, all dishes were served on time, and the beer recommended by the staff was the best.

They were lovely and the fish and ships was delicious! Thank you

A really great experience that you should have as an SMWS member! Excellent, unique whiskeys in a special atmosphere are definitely worth a trip when you are in Edinburgh. And we didn't expect the food to be so good either - a clear recommendation even for people who aren't absolute whiskey fans!

Best Soup Ever!!! Highly recommend, good prices, flavours and service. A hidden gem 🌟

Words can’t truly describe how amazing every aspect of our dinner was. It was our last night in Edinburgh and we definitely ended our trip on a high note. All the staff were very friendly, attentive and helpful. We ordered from the A La Carte menu and from my lobster rolls starter to the cod main, it was like we were on an exquisite culinary journey which I did not want to end. Iulian, our waiter, was very helpful in answering any questions we had about our meals and Phil, the sommelier, kindly suggested wine pairings which were delightful to say the least. I’ll admit that I was a bit nervous about dining at Fhior, but the atmosphere was very unpretentious and welcoming. I will definitely return if ever in Edinburgh again. Chef Scott creates some amazing dishes! Talent like I’ve never experienced. Do yourself a favour and go if you have a chance!

Good for late night food when nothing is open.
