The best British restaurants Edinburgh

South of the West End and west of the castle, this well-known address, somewhat removed from the more touristy areas, boasts a superb burger menu. At very affordable and excellent prices, they are among the best in the city and the choice is vast and suitable for all tastes. You'll find vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal versions, as well as decadent poutines. The place attracts a lot of people at weekends and the long contemporary room with bay window fills up quickly.

Loch Arthur cheese, Galloway jam, Heather Hills honey and Pelham meats, the Larder Café is an absolute must for a delicious breakfast, a good lunch or a well-deserved four o'clock. Everything is prepared with great care and provides great flavors that you can't get enough of, from Scottish Breakfast to scone, quiches, soups and sandwiches. The small room with yellow tints and large windows is quickly filled. It is therefore sometimes necessary to arrive quite early, but it is really worth it!

Perfectly typical of Stockbridge, Hector's is a trendy and relaxed gastro-pub with a rounded front and a street-side location in the neighbourhood. We meet there to eat a good meal as well as to have a drink. It is the local - or canteen - of many residents. The decoration is that of a modern and friendly brewery where you can enjoy good burgers, steaks, lasagne, magpies, duck confit and others. Try it on Sunday evenings for a traditional roast in an authentic and family atmosphere.

Thistle Street appears to be a quiet and narrow Victorian era in the heart of New Town. The Good Living on this cool, relaxed wave to set up a busy bistro touch. The benches and armchairs welcome guests who enjoy simple but serious and innovative cuisine. The service is smiling and the wine list includes several great wines. At the end of the day, the evenings are busy.

On the ground floor, Teuchters is a trendy, young and traditional pub serving a wide range of beers with small dishes and tapas. Perfect for a drink and a snack. In the basement, a Room in the West End is a restaurant that offers many classics, such as haggis, Angus beef or cullen skink fish soup. Whichever you choose, you're guaranteed to have a great time, and since you're here, why not try both?

Le Treacle is a trendy bar and restaurant that serves food, from the morning with brunch, all day long for a drink or lunch on the go and until late at night. Her Asian imagination is reflected in her large manga fresco on a whole wall, but also in the noodles, salads and sandwiches served with chips and soup suggested on the menu. For the more British tradition, magpies, burgers and breakfasts close the march. The opening on Brougthon Street is not unpleasant and the cocktails are very exotic.

This burger pub does not yet have the reputation of the Holyrood 9A in Old Town, but it has made a name for itself in New Town. Fajita, Australian, Camembert, Cajun and Halloumi are among its wide range, but you can prefer meat or salad. The Cambridge's second pride is its beers and its passion for sport. The interior is well arranged and there is a fireplace. No more children after 8:00.

On horseback between New Town and West End, there is a small walkway from Queensferry Road. The quiet terrace is a treat and the surrounding area is located there all day to eat or drink a blow. Employees of all ages and young people, as well as pensioners, enjoy getting there to enjoy successful Scottish cuisine in a contemporary and pleasant setting. On the menu, salads and a whole bunch of meat, fish and vegetarian dishes, half way between the pub and the restaurant. The selection of beer will delight connoisseurs.

The Kitchin opened its doors in 2006 and has been winning awards ever since. Tom Kitchin, his starred chef, was a pupil of Alain Ducasse, and his French-inspired dishes are made with the best Scottish local produce. The philosophy of the house is "from nature to the plate", so it's not surprising that the attention paid to the raw material ensures a real culinary epic. The frame is very mineral and combines shades of grey, blue and brown. Menus change according to the seasons.

It is hidden behind Princes Street, away from the tourist life. Original decorative elements (dating from 1862) have been preserved, in particular the mosaics recounting moments of life in the 19th century. Seafood has been enjoyed within these walls since Victorian times! Among other fish dishes and beautiful seafood dishes, the house's specialty remains oysters, served fresh on its bed of ice, with lemon. One of the most beautiful pubs in Edinburgh and in that respect, it deserves a break!

The Brasserie Prince is located within the walls of the superb Balmoral. Held by Alain Roux, a chef whose reputation is well established, he offers a marriage of French and English tradition. We recommend the exceptional haggis revisited here with a whiskey sauce and presented with the greatest care, for a culinary experience without equal. The less adventurous will also enjoy a selection that combines the traditions of both countries and highlights the richness of the Scottish soil.

This Royal Mile gastro pub no longer has its reputation for whisky thanks to an impressive menu! You can even taste them four by four, with 14 different formulas to get started or to assert yourself. The food is also greeted and sourced locally, thanks to a menu that features several Scottish classics and burgers. The decoration displays molded woodwork and bottle displays, providing a cosy setting, enhanced by a little background music. In the evening, groups perform live every day of the week, in front of a regular and tourist clientele.

The woodwork and candles give an undeniable charm to this bar-restaurant in Leith which comes alive on Tuesday and Thursday evenings with the presence of folk and jazz musicians. Chic without making a fuss, this is the address to go to for a good meal at a reasonable price in the area. You can enjoy beautiful meats and seafood - the establishment is renowned for its shellfish and fish - but some people just prefer to have a drink and enjoy the conviviality of the place. Book in the evening to make sure you have a table.

A few steps from the castle, a worrying crest announces the colour: The Witchery was the seat of Edinburgh's witchcraft in the 16th century. And whether you choose the main room or the Secret Garden, the esotericism oozes from the walls and the decoration hits the nail on the head. Today, magic works in the mouths and many people are curious and gourmet to hurry, especially in the evening, when dinner can be served until late. It is preferable to make a reservation. For a tighter budget or a sweet palate, think of the Afternoon teas and their share of delicacies!

Leith's Michelin star list also includes Martin Wishart and his eponymous restaurant. Here, we seek subtlety and finesse to sublimate each flavour from the four corners of Scotland, all with the claimed inspiration of French gastronomy. The result is of course wonderful and the service is impeccable. White tablecloths and presentation are drawn with four pins, in a soft and simple decor.

Adorable deep green front, wallpaper adorned with roses, comfortable lounge and so british porcelain trinkets, there is here a cosy decor and full of humour in its way of revisiting the aesthetics of grannies. Brunch is the house speciality, but she also concocts typical Scottish dishes and gourmet desserts. The bar side is more classic and fills up in the evening. To be tested: the "cocktail pots" for cocktails in a "pot" (teapot). The site regularly hosts exhibitions of local artists and creative craftsmen.

The Black Fox is a warm and trendy pub on Leith Walk that has created the conditions for its success with excellent cheap food and a range of homemade beers to accompany it. Salads, pizzas, burgers and hot dogs will be served in a small room with white bricks and thick parquet flooring. The plates are really copious: enough to mop up the craft beers (consume in moderation!). The place fills up from 6pm and empties just before the last tram.

You feel like you are in our guests' dining room and the plates are mainly garnished with local meats, prepared in a creative way, and fish. The Gardener's Cottage has two sister establishments: The Lookout and Quay Commons.

The Amber Restaurant of the Scotch Whisky Experience is a true Scottish table that showcases national tradition and cooks excellent national dishes. Amber's specials are a good value for money and it's better to prefer hands to tapas for those who are hungry. The clientele consists of both visitors and locals and the bar area attracts whisky lovers from all over the world. The selection is one of the most comprehensive in Edinburgh at attractive prices. The servers are experts who will be able to advise you.
