A cosmopolitan palette has long been a characteristic shared by the residents of the city region; over 800 years ago, Leith merchants began importing claret from Bordeaux.
Little has changed in the intervening years, and today, Edinburgh boast a fine array of excellent, award-winning cafes, bistros and restaurants, including fove Michelin-starred eateries - the most in the UK outside of London.
So whether you’re looking for fine dining at top restaurants like Martin Wishart and the Plumed Horse or Arbroath Smokies (smoked haddock) from an award-winning farmers’ market, then Edinburgh has it all and much more.
We have a growing reputation for high quality restaurants and strong food culture and I have no doubt that the quality and variety of food on offer is vital to the success of the Edinburgh experience
