Food Scene
Another great spot to try fish n chips, probably even better than the City Restaurant but a bit further from the house! You can get a bus all the way to Princes Street and then it's a 15 minute walk down towards Leith Walk, past the Playhouse.

You will find these bakeries all over town. Handy when you need a fast, cheap bite on the go. Try the typical Scottish meat pie or sausage roll. It's not gourmet but it's satisfying!
