January 25 is Robert Burns birthday which is celebrated by Scots around the world with a “Burns Supper” Apparently in SF the Edinburgh Castle Pub is doing one Jan 20. Has anyone been to this place before or, better...

Tonight a group of friends is heading over to quiz night at the Edinburgh Castle. Because of scheduling constraints, we’re not able to grab dinner first. Usually this wouldn’t be a problem because Edinburgh has a fish...

From down-and-out to up-and-coming— the city’s next Mission District.

Will be in Edinburgh for a couple of days over Easter and would appreciate some of your favorite restaurants. Will be staying in centre of city, so would like to be able to walk or simple transportation directions. I’ve...

I’m a recent transplant to Edinburgh. In my last city, I was a regular reader of chowhound, but my experience of the UK board is that it is basically (as another poster put it) “London and other places” (though...

Simple request I hope: I’m looking for the most atmospheric (loads of character) pub lunch experience in the Old Town of Edinburgh (preferably near Edinburgh Castle). I assume most of these spots are frequented by tourists,...

If it’s still there – go to The Round Table in the old part – great haggis – which is not supposed to be great but it is. Go to Rose St. which has 30+ pubs, go to Edinburgh Castle. Just hang out and drink...

DH and son(adult) will be landing in Edinburgh in June, renting a car to meander the countryside enroute to St. Andrews (to play the Old Course of course). Any recs re. route/places to stay/places to chow appreciated. Last visit...

Hiya – the Tower Restaurant in the Museum of Scotland has lift access, and fantastic views across to the castle. It serves lots of local seafood – nothing massively adventurous and not cheap, but still, it’s a...

I haven’t eaten out in Edinburgh very often (I’m from Glasgow) but The Witchery has a great reputation and is undoubtedly the most glamourous place in Edinburgh that I know of. It’s right next to the Castle, has...

I will be in Glasgow and Edinburgh, and traveling between the two, this August. Does anyone have restaurant recommendations based on recent experiences? Budget is not an issue but we are focused more on the quality of the food...

I think you’re spending time in the one area of Scotland we skipped! We went from Edinburgh along the west coast and into the Highlands. Most of our meals were either in a castle or distillery cafe or in the hotel...
