The respected travel bible says “even to hardened locals, Edinburgh possesses a magic that few other UK cities claim”, adding that “the city's most beautiful restaurants fully embrace its history in their individual ways”.
Take a look through our photo gallery to see which nine Edinburgh restaurants Condé Nast Traveller recommends to those wanting to “enjoy gorgeous surroundings and stellar food”.
9. Timberyard
Where: 10 Lady Lawson Street, Edinburgh EH3 9DS. Conde Nast writes: Beautiful Scandi-inspired interiors – clean white walls, delicate glassware, neutral-toned crockery – fill one of Edinburgh’s best seasonal restaurants. Photo: Third Party
10. The Witchery by the Castle
Where: Castlehill, Royal Mile, Edinburgh EH1 2NF. Conde Nast writes: This is Gothic revival at its best – outrageous, over the top, deliciously romantic and fun. Dark oak panelling, tapestries and low-slung Merlot-red booths fill the hotel’s baroque Witchery restaurant set in a 16th-century merchant's house. Photo: Third Party
