Edinburgh is Scotland’s culinary capital — a city where the ancient traditions of Scottish cooking meet a bold and ambitious modern food scene. The city’s exceptional natural larder — fresh seafood from the North Sea, Highland game, Aberdeen Angus beef, and some of the world’s finest whisky — gives its chefs an extraordinary foundation to work from. From the cosy traditional pubs and seafood restaurants of Leith to the Michelin-starred dining rooms of the New Town, Edinburgh offers a food culture that is deeply rooted in Scottish identity yet genuinely world class. Our guide covers the best Edinburgh has to offer.
