This place serves the best mac and cheese if it is one of your favourite dishes! It is also a popular choice for its craft beers and cocktails. So, best to grab a table on the Leith walk kerb or escape out the back to the garden through the Narnia wardrobe for a breath of fresh air.

A unique dining experience. Built on a cantilever, the restaurant is partially suspended over Calton Hill’s northwest slope, meaning the floor-to-ceiling windows offer breath-taking views across Edinburgh, the Firth of Forth and beyond.

Stockbridge has something of a village atmosphere about it, although it is only a ten to fifteen minute walk from Edinburgh city centre. Stockbridge is to the North edge of the Edinburgh New Town and it melds into Inverleith to the North and West. It is alongside the Water of Leith one of the main rivers running through Edinburgh.
The area is characterised by the many delis, small restaurants, cafes, and pubs and also a weekly Sunday market, which is a must visit.
