          Special occasions deserve a special meal. The
        
        
          sort of dinner that will be remembered long after
        
        
          the last forkful has been demolished. Browns is
        
        
          a cherished George Street brasserie that serves
        
        
          traditional food with a twist and a flourish. The
        
        
          ingredients? Sourced locally, where possible. The
        
        
          food pairings? Simple but oh so tasty. Whether it’s
        
        
          the classic Browns burger or the prawn and crab
        
        
          linguine served in a lime, chilli and coriander pesto
        
        
          sauce, the food looks magnificent. Take a bite of
        
        
          one of the finest steaks served on George Street
        
        
          and relish one of the greatest meals you’ll taste
        
        
          in a long time. Since opening its doors in 1973,
        
        
          Browns has established a city-wide reputation
        
        
          for serving sophisticated food in a stylish setting.
        
        
          Whether it’s a zingy cocktail, afternoon tea, hearty
        
        
          dinner or light bite at the bar, Browns is a classy
        
        
          setting in which to savour the very best.

          Dubbed Edinburgh’s finest tea salon, Colonnades
        
        
          takes the business of brewing the perfect cuppa
        
        
          very seriously. The salon’s quest for perfection
        
        
          has seen it earn accolades and plaudits from the
        
        
          city’s tea-drinking denizens, who know a great
        
        
          brew when they taste one. The Royal Mile tea
        
        
          emporium also serves delicious lunches, potent
        
        
          cocktails and indulgent cakes. Everything, from the
        
        
          grand Corinthian columns that flank the tea salon,
        
        
          to the neoclassical flourishes throughout, elevate
        
        
          afternoon tea into a regal and refined affair. Linger
        
        
          over freshly baked scones, cakes and sandwiches
        
        
          while knocking back all the tea, or fizz, you can
        
        
          drink. Take your pick from the towering cake stands,
        
        
          polished to perfection and loaded to the brim with
        
        
          tempting treats. Outside, on the Royal Mile, life
        
        
          canters by at its usual pace. Inside, time appears
        
        
          to slow down as you linger over the finest afternoon
        
        
          tea Edinburgh has to offer.
