Arthur's Seat

Historical landmark

👍👍 This wasn't a planned walk we was doing but we ended up walking up there. Absolutely beautiful views from the summit, quite rocky when you get to the top. I thought it was easier than it looks, some good paths up there and some steps too with chains for support going up these. There was me thinki...

Books N' Cup Cafe

Cafe

👍👍 This place has been my go-to coffee place/ breakfast book/ comfort zone while in vacation in Edinburgh. The staff are super friendly and welcoming, the smashed avocado toast (see photo) is to die for, and the coffee is spot on. If you get lucky one of two soft leather armchairs might be available, t...

Quinn’s cafe

Cafe

👍👍 The little cafe was full yesterday so we tried again on Monday morning. It is in a touristy area (though not on the main street), but the food is fabulous. Service is really welcoming (thanks for asking about the eggs :3 and offering to give directions!) Latte is nice and mellow. The flat white is...

Manda Huevos

Tapas bar

👍👍 Manda Huevos is by far, without a doubt, *the* best take-away eatery within a 10 mile radius. The local, fresh ingredients truly make the difference, and anything you'll pick from the menu is guaranteed to be great. Pablo and his partner are both incredibly passionate cooks; from tortillas to empana...

Grey Mare's Tail Waterfall

Tourist attraction

👍👍 Beautiful place to visit. Pay to park in the car park at the bottom (£3) and then chose a path to follow. The one to the right takes you right up to the loch at the top or the one to the left takes you to a wonderful viewpoint of the waterfall. Car park gets full fast so best to get there early

Soul Vegan

Vegan restaurant

👍👍 The best Asian and vegan restaurant in Edinburgh that I have been to so far. You would experience the authentic Malaysian taste from dishes made in an unexpected way. The Laksa noodle soup and Rendang sauce were some of the best I have ever had. They are both highly flavourful with distinctive tast...
