Food Scene

They do fabulous breakfasts and brunches with locally sourced food - their menu changes depending on what is in season. They open a lot earlier than a lot of other cafes in Edinburgh (8am Mon-Fri) so are great if you are looking for an early breakfast before heading on a sightseeing trip!

It's just round the corner and is very budget friendly. The serving staff are very friendly and the food is great! If you like seafood the Fritturina di Pesce starter is huge - definitely share with friends.

Our favourite Indian restaurant in Edinburgh, it's within walking distance of the apartment and the owner is lovely! She will cook the dishes according to your preferences i.e. I always ask for very mild and Garry always asks for very hot. It's BYOB and there is no corkage fee.
