From sun-soaked terraces with sweeping skyline views to artful interiors, the city's new venues are a great addition to the hospitality scene.
Here are 10 new bars, cafes and restaurants that opened in Edinburgh this year.

9. The Volley
This Leith Walk bar, which was made famous by Irvine Welsh’s novel Trainspotting has reopened. The pub, which was affectionately nicknamed "the Volley" by locals, closed its doors in 2012 after being gutted in a fire. Since then, it has reopened under various names including Cask & Still, The Mousetrap, and most recently, The Dog House. Following an extensive refurb, the bar’s interior has been given a new lease of life, and has been transformed into a bright, breezy space flooded with natural light and neon | The Volley

10. Boston Spud Co.
The Boston Bar on Hanover Street launched the Boston Spud Co. - a new baked potato concept that puts a new twist on the classic baked potato, with big, fluffy, buttery spuds loaded with a mix of comforting, character-filled toppings. Drawing inspiration from both traditional Irish staples and Boston Bar favourites, each option offers a generous, flavour-packed meal that’s quick and affordable | Boston Spud Co.
