Eat your fill with food and drink in Edinburgh

Ah, a favourite subject of ours! When it comes to food and drink in Edinburgh, the city is just brimming with restaurants, cafes, bistros, gastro pubs, pizzerias, chippies and just about everything else to tickle your fancy.

If you're looking to dine out, Girdy & Birdy are gradually eating their way through the 'Burgh and updating their restaurant experiences regularly, both on the blog, and - more frequently - through social media.

You don't even have to eat out, either! You can order in, with many delivery services (such as JustEat, Deliveroo and UberEats) happy to bring exactly what you want straight to your door. Food and drink in Edinburgh is always a delight!

Review: Civerinos, a Stockbridge pizzeria

March 15, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Located in the heart of Stockbridge, this Civerinos outlet is a haven for pizza nerds. It offers a unique three-style menu in a high-energy setting. Be prepared for crowds, but the New York slices and Detroit crusts are well worth the wait.

Amarone is a reliable and stylish City Centre staple that excels at hosting everything from large parties to quick business lunches.

Review: Fired Dough Pizzas, a city centre pizzeria

March 15, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Fired Dough Pizzas delivers an impressive Neapolitan crust in the heart of the West End. Perfect for a quick bite between films at the reopened Filmhouse, the speciality truffle and pistachio pizzas offer a creative twist on Italian classics. Quality meets efficiency.

Review: Dough Pizza, a city centre pizzeria

March 15, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Dough on Rose Street is a New Town gem for those who value quality over fuss. With San Marzano bases and inventive toppings like marinated figs, it offers a sophisticated takeaway experience that remains reliable even during the festival madness.

Review: Porto & Fi – a deli bistro in Newhaven

February 22, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Porto & Fi celebrates 19 years in Newhaven as a family-run success. This bright bistro offers a standout cake counter, hearty Scottish brunch, and a licensed dinner menu featuring Cullen Skink. A must-visit at the end of the Edinburgh tram line.

Review: Diggers Leith – a pub in Leith

February 16, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A fantastic new addition to Leith, Diggers offers a top-tier drinks menu and a vibrant setting. From the Calcutta Cup buzz to the knowledgeable bar staff, it’s a masterclass in pub culture. Perfect for a dram and a local pint by the tram line.

Review: Treatz Edinburgh – A Dessert Parlour on Lothian Road

February 16, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

A shiny and romantic dessert parlour that stands out from fading competitors. Treatz serves massive portions of sweet treats at good value. While the venue is impressive, the service pace is leisurely and can be awkward for first-timers. Ideal for couples seeking a quiet sugar fix.

Review: Kezban Mediterranean Restaurant – a Turkish restaurant in Leith

February 16, 2026 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Located on Commercial Street, Kezban Mediterranean excels with its Turkish grill and extensive meze menu. While the service can feel a little weary, the food is consistently good and the dark, atmospheric interior is great for quiet catch-ups.
