Top Restaurant Venues in Edinburgh

In Edinburgh, you’ll find candlelit suppers in New Town Georgian dining rooms, long tables in converted vaults beneath Old Town streets, and smoky kitchens in Leith turning out the kind of seafood that needs no introduction. It’s a city where you can raise a whisky toast in a private room above a friendly pub or book out an entire brasserie for a wedding dinner that stretches late into the night. The venues here suit all kinds of gatherings: graduation lunches with skyline views, retirement dinners with live folk music, or engagement parties over shared platters and bold red wines. The food ranges from reimagined Highland game to wood-fired Neapolitan pizza, Korean BBQ joints to Michelin tasting menus. Looking for a space that matches the moment? Edinburgh has a table for it. Keep scrolling to find the best restaurant venues in Edinburgh.
