Best brunch in Edinburgh
1. Toast

The menu is classic, the prices reasonable and the service super friendly. A lovely place to sit and enjoy time with friends.
2. Finn & Bear

They also make great cocktails so settle in with some friends and linger for a couple of drinks after the tasty food.

When it comes to brunch cooking this small cosy restaurant takes things to a whole new level. Every dish feels like it is a work of art that is nearly too good to eat. Nearly!

5. The Pantry
The focus on brunch and lunch and deliver them both with aplomb. So many inventive and exciting dishes to choose from, but the French toast is an absolute must if you fancy something sweet.
