In my opinion the best fish & chips near the flat. Like every chippy in Edinburgh they'll ask if you want "salt n sauce!" (it's a mix of vinegar and brown sauce) I hate it, but I'll let you decide.

Edinburgh’s famous Witchery restaurant by Edinburgh Castle. The restaurant has two parts; The Witchery and the Secret Garden. I’d recommend the Secret Garden but both offer the ultimate Scottish experience.

A tiny bakery and cafe, but some of the best bread and coffee in the city in our opinion! And worth the slightly longer walk.

Arguably the best Butcher in Edinburgh and it’s on your doorstep. The sausages are the way to go here as it’s pretty pricey - but they are the best bangers in Scotland!

My favourite neighbourhood in Edinburgh. So many shops, cafés, restaurants and bars. Be sure to take a stroll along the canal on the "Water of Leith Walkway" towards the Dean Village and West End. So beautiful.
