The best brunch, to be honest it's great all times of day. There's an awesome bar downstairs as well if you just want a cocktail on your way out.

Super chilled, inexpensive and very french. No frills and you have to sit on a bench but it's always buzzy and the foods always great.

Climb up Arthurs seat and down the other side to the Sheeps Heid. Great to blow off the cobwebs and not a bad pub lunch. It also has an awesome old school bowling alley.
