AVERY

££££

When American chef Rodney Wages visited Edinburgh on holiday, he fell in love with the city so much that he decided to move himself, his family and his restaurant here. And that's how Avery, which once graced the streets of San Francisco, came to be located in a classic Georgian townhouse in Stockbridge. Rodney has wholly embraced his Scottish surroundings, taking the country's bountiful produce and treating it with a Californian lightness, while providing bold, distinct flavours – like Orkney scallop dressed with pineapple jus. The drinks flight combines wine, sake, sherry and, of course, a w

The Scran & Scallie

Scottish, Traditional Cuisine · Bib

££

Comfort food abounds at this relaxed operation from the Tom Kitchin stable, which positions itself as a real neighbourhood pub, but one that also happens to serve great-tasting food. As this is one of the busiest eateries in Edinburgh, you need to make sure to book if you’re to indulge in the hearty joys of haggis, neeps and tatties, or the signature fish pie that packs in plenty of flavour with its generous helping of seafood. Leave room for dessert too, as the sweet-toothed are well looked after with the likes of vanilla rice pudding.

Modern British · Bib

££

This tiny basement operation in the suburb of Stockbridge comes with dark, moody décor and impressive cooking from the get-go. The menu of rustic sharing plates pushes flavour-packed British ingredients to the fore and the dishes are pleasingly free of superfluous elements, allowing their central components to shine. A carefully curated list includes a selection of natural wines, with those available by the glass listed on the blackboard. Cheery, well-organised service adds to the experience.

The Palmerston

Modern Cuisine

££

Situated on a prime corner site in Edinburgh's West End, this former bank is now filled with a different kind of gold. Culinary delights ranging from house-baked breads and pastries to a full menu of unfussy, European-influenced dishes will ensure you leave satisfied, whenever you decide to drop in. A beautiful conversion has left the interior with polished bistro tables and the feel of a smart dining pub, helped out by the local beers, impressive whisky selection and carefully curated wine list. Look out for the dishes to share, such as Borders venison, red wine and smoked bacon pie.

££

This buzzy wine bar and trattoria is set in the heart of bustling Stockbridge, where you can pop in just for a glass of wine with some olives and salumi around the communal, marble-topped island counter – or choose from the full à la carte of appealingly unfussy Italian dishes. Whether you opt for one of the pastas or the fish of the day, it’s all simple, fresh and wholly enjoyable. The top-notch wine list is almost exclusively Italian, with owner and sommelier James on hand to recommend something to suit.

Dulse

seafood

£££

In Edinburgh's bustling West End, this unpretentious spot offers an enticing combination of wine bar and seafood restaurant. Start in the ground-floor bar with a glass from the interesting international list, before heading upstairs to enjoy a celebration of Scottish fish and shellfish. The quality of the produce shines through, from Shetland mussels to Skye langoustines, sometimes enhanced by flavours from Jamaican jerk spice to harissa butter. Head to their sister branch in Leith to put your bib on and get stuck in to the 'seafood boil' experience featuring an array of shellfish.

Modern British

££££

There's a plush quality to this smart counter restaurant in the suburb of Stockbridge. Small "chef’s table" operations like this allow for a much greater intimacy to your dining experience and, indeed, there are just two people working here: Brian in the kitchen and Glen looking after service and wines. Following a warm welcome, you can enjoy a highly seasonal tasting menu that has a strong Scottish heart, from the Orkney beef to the fantastic Perthshire strawberries.

Purslane

Modern Cuisine

£££

An affluent area of the city plays host to this cosy, atmospheric basement restaurant which comprises just 9 tables. The experienced chef-owner creates ambitious modern dishes which mix tried-and-tested flavours with contemporary techniques. Service is friendly and the set lunch menu is steal.
