Thanks for your suggestions as well @i_am_lono. We went up Arthur’s Seat on the Wednesday morning when the weather was good so didn’t have a chance to do the bits you’d mentioned around there. Got a couple of cans of Newbarns from Brauhaus and enjoyed them both. @hollow__legs the Hermitage Braid walk was really nice and another great view from the top there so thanks for that suggestion.
In general we had a really nice time walking around and just stumbling across stuff for most of the trip as well. Went through to Leith after Arthur’s Seat and then back into town one day, another we went out to the Botanical Garden, along the leith to Dean Village and Gardens then on to the Modern Art Gallery which was also a nice day out. Went to Hanging Bat one night and was very happy with their cask selection when there. Another night ate out at a vegan place Seeds For the Soul which was pleasant. Last night we visited Bellfield Brewery who had some great beers. They look to rotate between food suppliers and it was Vegan Mexican this week which was quality, called Antojitos and I’d recommend them if you see them somewhere.
Sounds like a fine trip and glad you avoided the usual tourist guff. Thanks for the Antojitos tip too; we've had a few of the better Mexicans close down during the pandemic so always good to find another.
