Shopping in Edinburgh doesn't have to break the bank!
If there's one thing Edinburgh certainly is not lacking, it's shops! In the city centre alone, there's all the main locations such as Princes Street, St James Quarter, Waverley Mall, and the Royal Mile.
Scattered between the big-name brands, designers and boutiques, you'll find so many smaller, independent shops and retailers - where there's something to suit just about every budget!
Here at Edinburgh Reviews, sometimes we cover shops that have just recently opened, or have held events - and sometimes you'll discover some amazing local deals.

A review of Amazon’s Pantry service in Edinburgh
Have you tried Amazon’s grocery delivery service yet? It’s nothing like Tesco or Sainsbury’s online shopping experience. The traditional supermarket online model works by you booking a delivery slot, usually between 1 and 2 hours in length, and paying for the privilege. The more popular slots are more expensive. You then add items to your […]
A review of the Canary, home security tech
The Canary began life as an Indiegogo project. I backed it and it remains the most expensive technology crowdfunded campaign that’s actually delivered and delivered a great piece of hardware. Before I get on to writing about the Canary itself I wanted to quickly mention how great I’ve found the Canary customer experience to be. […]

A 30 second tour of Ocean Terminal
Ocean Terminal is a three story shopping centre on the dock end of Leith. It is a collection of retailers with restaurants, a gym and a cinema thrown in for good measure. This isn’t a review of Ocean Terminal. I don’t think it’s possible to review an ecosystem that’s so variable in any meaningful way. […]
Girl’s Night at Games Workshop Edinburgh
Here’s a good idea. Games Workshop Edinburgh, on the Royal Mile, are reserving this coming Friday (the 9th) as a girls only night. The goal is to present a slightly different enviorment so more female wargamers or girls considering the hobby feel a little easier about getting involved. It’s been run by Emika who works […]
Pictures from the West End craft fair, 2012
[wooslider slider_type=”attachments” limit=”10″] Once again St John’s is playing host to 3D/2D and the West End Fair. There are very many stalls worth checking out but Richard Pell‘s creative metalwork especially caught my eye. Unfortunately, pictures from this year’s craft fair are fewer in number than I would have hoped after one of the stall […]
Review of Real Foods, Broughton Street
The Real Foods on Broughton Street is a real treasure for any foodie who wants to avoid either chemically enhanced sludge food or supermarkets. This shop sells natural food – by which they mean organic, ethical, fair trade but also a range of special diet foods too. If you’re looking for a cake mix that […]
