This is the original hidden gem of Edinburgh. It seems to be closed in the evenings and is literally hidden away down a lane, but it's the best food around thanks to the top chefs working there.

Spectacular building. It's actually better for coffee/ early lunch. The bar is ok if you order a gin and tonic but the beers are limited. Basically it's not as posh as it looks, but looks amazing!

There's no city centre late night takeaways apart from one hellish chip shop on Rose Street. I like Pizza Paradise if I'm on a night out!
