Food Scene
Very good, locally sourced & seasonal food. Lunch is good & dinner is great -a tasting menu & option to take matching wines. Long shared tables, so cosy you're with other people - not the place if you want to keep yourself to your self! Great Service. Book ahead!

Great traditional pub with really nice hearty food. An open fire for the cold winter nights and a lovely aspect outside next to the river for the summer evenings! Also has regular live jazz nights -worth the trip out to the trendy "up and coming" Leith, which is worth a visit anyway if you want to see where a lot of people are moving to in Edinburgh now.
