Things to do

• Drinking
  Forth Floor, Harvey Nichols

  St Andrew Square, Central New Town
  A new space has been created for cool folk to sip on a cocktail or too. Good vibe, great views both out of the window and behind the bar. Good selection of cocktails. You can sit outside in the summer and take in the stunning Edinburgh rooftop views.

• Drinking
  Oloroso

  This cool, modern bar is attached to a well regarded restaurant. There’s a superb, really large terrace for outdoor drinking in the summer and boasts some spectacular views to boot. The cocktails are divine.

• Eating
  Café Marlayne

  76 Thistle Street, Central New Town 226 2230
  Genuinely French, tiny little restaurant that feels like a real find.
  Scrumptious food although not great for veggies. Great value lunch.

• Eating
  Centrotre

  103 George Street, Central New Town, 225 1550
  This stylish restaurant is located in an old bank building and run by former Valvona and Crolla stalwarts. The food and service are always excellent but the sound can reverberate around making it a bit noisy.

• Entertainment
  The Omni Centre

  Hillside
  Its large modern glass structure dominates but also complements the surrounding area. There’s a mix of nationwide bars and restaurants to suit most tastes. It also has a Holmes Place Gym and Vue cinema with the latest films showing.

• Places of Interest
  National Portrait Gallery

  1 Queen Street Central New Town 624 6200 
  Provides a unique visual history of Scotland, told through portraits of the figures who shaped it: royals and rebels, poets and philosophers, heroes and villains. The collection includes work not only by Scottish artists but by great English, European and American masters such as Van Dyck, Gainsborough, Rodin and Kokoschka. In addition to paintings, the Portrait Gallery displays sculptures, miniatures, coins, medallions, drawings and watercolours. There’s a great café here too selling delicious home made food and some hard to resist cakes.

• Places of Interest
  Princess Street Gardens

  Central/West New Town
  While in Edinburgh why not have a stroll through the picturesque Princes Street Gardens. In the summer you will see many people picnicking, taking a break from shopping and generally relaxing. While in the winter take a stroll in a ‘Winter Wonderland’ with ice-skating and funfairs. Princes Street garden is also a great venue and the famous Hogmanay Party boosts many famous musical acts performing in the gardens like Blondie, The Scissor Sisters and Texas to name but a few. These gardens are where the original stinking loch was drained at the time the New Town was built. This is the place to watch the amazing post festival fireworks display; surely one of the best in the world. Open til dusk.
