Food scene
We are 5 mins walk from this pretty fishing harbour and lighthouse at Newhaven Harbour. Catch of the day at the famous Newhaven Fishmarket, enjoy with a glass of bubbly and watch the sunset. You can also find Loch Fyne Oyster restaurant and Pier brasserie (although I prefer the oysters at the Fishmarket;)

A 20 minute stroll from the flat you will find the Shore, this has a European vibe with its cobbled streets, canal and al fresco dining. There is a beautiful canal with some lovely restaurants and cafes. Toast, Mimi's Bakehouse are two personal favourites for a lite bite. If it's a sunny day, try and grab a table on the pontoon at Teuchter's Landing for a drink.
Every Saturday there is Leith Market at the Shore where you can buy delicious food (lots of Vegan options).

Leith was recently voted the coolest neighbourhood in Scotland so you are very lucky to be here! Leith Walk is full of independent eateries, coffee shops, bars and shops. Head down on foot (no choice about this due to the current tram works!) and you will find plenty of options to choose from.

One of my other favourites for fine dining is the Fingal boat, dining on this boat is like taking a step back in time and the perfect spot to watch the sunset. The Lighthouse Restaurant & Bar has a relaxed, luxurious feel and vast floor to ceiling windows. Serving Afternoon Tea, dinner and spectacular cocktails.
