Petit Paris on the Grassmarket is a lovely little place to eat. Need to book it though as it is small.

There's a lovely whisky shop on the Royal Mile, where you can buy it on draught, at cask strength (around 55%abv). Hundreds of bottles, of many styles and ages and sizes.

There's a fish & chip shop along from there where you can try traditional Scottish cuisine, aka a deep-fried Mars bar.

Go to the Oxford bar and ask if Rebus has been in. They'll love you for it.

Walk to Leith and get the bus back, or the other way around. Nice walk, and as already mentioned Leith has some nice waterside pubs.

Love Edinburgh.

Walking up to Arthur’s seat is a nice stroll, although can be a little demanding if it’s windy.

If you like Steak there’s a restaurant called STEAK which I would highly recommend. Not the cheapest but if you can claim it back through work even better.

Panda & Sons is a cool bar, based in the ‘new town’, but of a speakeasy type vibe and nice spot for a beer or 2. In the same area is The Dome, another great spot for food & drink.

In terms of somewhere a little more causal, I’m a big fan of the Last Drop on the Grassmarket. There’s a chilling story behind why it’s called the last drop too. The Holyrood 9A is a cool pub too with decent food.

My favourite city in Europe, enjoy.

Pop up to Leith and go to Oregano for pizza. Book ahead though; it’s one of the best settings and meals I have had.

Dishoom does an ace curry. Get the black lentil Dahl.

There’s a few nice pubs on Rose St too.

Enjoy!

The Real Mary King's Close is fantastic for history of Edinburgh

Witchery is a very good restaurant, but you may struggle to get it refunded on expenses!

Rose Street has plenty of pubs

The Castle is worth a visit

Yeah, I'd've said there's a few pubs on Rose Street, not sure about the 'nice' bit.

Looking at google it seems Leith is about a mile and a half walk from my hotel (I guess max 30 mins), although it looks like it is all along a main road

There is a path beside the Water of Leith out from Haymarket / West End to Leith which will shield you from the traffic.
