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!

A review of Grams, a vegan-friendly cafe in Stockbridge

November 16, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Even if you’re torn for choices while touring Stockbridge, I think Grams is worth checking out. It’s pink, and I’m impressed.

A review of Sabzi, an Indian restaurant on Ferry Road

November 12, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Stunning food simply presented without fanfare or arrogance but good enough to deserve both. Sabzi is going to win things and be recommended for years to come, I suspect.

A review of Magdalen’s Sweetbox from Etsy

November 8, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Homemade, clever and custom chocolates from a Newhaven based sweet-maker. Recommended!

A review of Betty and George, Canonmills

November 1, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Betty and George is brand new at Howard Street in Canonmills. I’ve been several times and always had a good experience, but I can’t imagine opening during lockdown-lite and COVID-19 was hiccup-free!

A review of Rishi’s Indian Aroma, an Indian restaurant on Lindsay Road

October 25, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood 1 Comment

An absolute gem of a discovery. Delicious Indian food in a clean, quick and friendly restaurant.

Tasty, tasty but oh-so-decadent: A review of Joe & Seph’s popcorn

October 21, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Posh popcorn that I’m happy to recommend. You’ll taste the difference. You’ll be thrilled at the range and be disappointed when you run out earlier than you expected.

A review of In Touch, the Indian restaurant on Inverleith Gardens

October 10, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Good Indian food, with lots of main courses, matching side dishes but no dessert options beyond coffee at all. In Touch does well with delivery but has a clean restaurant area generally staffed by one waiter.

A review of Licks Cake Design, perfection in a cupcake box

October 8, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Some delicious cupcakes! Simple, elegant and delightful. These came fresh, with the baker braving the rain to deliver to me, and now I’m plotting my own birthday cake.
