Food Scene

Peter's Yard is below the apartment and offers a lovely range of teas, coffees, sandwiches, soup and baking in a very informal setting. It does get pretty busy around lunchtime though and bookings are not available.

Fantastic and very chilled out Thai restaurant. Food is excellent as is the atmosphere. No bookings are available and you are just sat on benches next to other people. It's a bargain especially for lunch where it's the same menu but cheaper!

Sightseeing

Another fabulous view of the city. For those not wanting as strenuous a walk up Arthur's Seat then this offers a second best option with a gentle tarmacked road up to the top.
