Looking out over Edinburgh's rooftops, and its castle, there's no better for dinner with a view in the city than Chaophraya. Boasting a Thai menu that'll leave you wanting more, expect Thai sirloin steak, stir-frys and cocktails, all taken to the next level.
If brasserie-style dining sounds like a little bit of you, The Fourth Floor dining experience at Harvey Nichols puts most other department store restaurant experiences to shame. With views of the Forth River and the three bridges, it''s an exciting dinner for all of the senses.
It's inside where you'll want to be at The Outsider thanks to an unrivalled dining view of Edinburgh and all that it offers. Overlooking the city's iconic rooftops, you'll get a taste for architecture, great wine and Scottish food alike.
Don't let the epic sights fool you at Cold Town House. While this is an Edinburgh restaurant with a view, it's keeping things cool and casual with a menu that promises the very best in Neapolitan pizza, prosecco and summer-led cocktails.
Hilltop dining has a jewel in its crown, and it's the simple but chic Gardener's Cottage. Part of the beloved City Observatory project The Lookout is all about championing local produce and giving its guests a view to remember.
