Perfect timing! I am going back home to Edinburgh in April sans wife and kids (from my other home, Melbourne). Some great new spots for me to check out in a city filled to the brim with choices (except maybe in menswear...).
I’ll put in a note for Portobello (about 3 miles out of the centre). A wonderful beachside town to visit - lots of good cafes, a quality bookshop, a few good pubs plus an amazing Turkish Baths in the swimming pool (a hidden gem).
On the menswear/clothing side I would add Frontier (with brands like Howlin) and Walker Slater for a bit of an updated take on tweed. Armstrong’s vintage is also worth a look for fun. Finally, The Dominion cinema is a classic and I plan to finally check out the amazing looking cinema in The Scotsman Hotel.
Love this series. How about some under-appreciated US cities next, for a weekend getaway?
Thanks! And most definitely, we got plenty of those coming for sure
Love the series. Great to have for coming travels and inspiration of where to go. Would love a guide to Toronto
Thank YOU! On the list for future guides :)

Other tips and suggestions welcome!
Some wonderful recs to add to the list, thanks AJ! Appreciate these. Curious what you'll think of the spots there.
