Tiny Mexican - delicious food. Booking necessary. Though it is on Rose Street feels like a secret place as it is so tiny you would struggle to get in without booking

Lovely little wine bar welling great wine. They do a really good lunch deal sometimes. Glass of wine and a salad or sandwich for £5! Great for pre-dinner drinks.

Lovely place by the river. If you have a car would particularly recommend a wee lunch or brunch down here on a sunny day so you can sit out on their extensive deck and catch some rays.

Amazing French Carribean food on Dalry Road. You pass it on the number 44 bus. Decor is not the most stylish, however food is fabulous. It's also a BYOB and their is an off licence a couple of doors away so reasonable night out.

Gorgeous walks, particularly around us. Colinton Dell is worth a visit. The Visitors Centre has maps of the different walks you can do. You can walk right down to Leith on the water of Leith. Though it is about 12 miles!

Drinks & Nightlife

Gin distillery. Very stylish for drinks and cocktails - opens at 5pm. Staff are knowledgeable about their drinks! Not cheap but not ridiculous either!

Shopping

More than shopping but amazing shopping! Do you remember The Pier? Like that but more upmarket and just more! Sells clothes as well. Nice little cafe, though very busy in holidays and at weekends. Children's Play Centre Castle is huge and brilliantly designed. We have take friend's children and they have loved it. Lovely walks around the estate Basically somethig for everyone and well worth a visit if you want some time out of the city.
