Have you ever tried a spot recommended by a popular review site and left wondering what all the fuss was about? You're not alone. In a city as layered and lively as Edinburgh, the real treasures are often hidden away from the usual tourist trails. This blog post is dedicated to the places I swear by—spots I return to time and again. From cozy cafes serving the best coffee you’ve never heard of, to the falconry experience of a life time these places are worth visiting while in Edinburgh. I’m excited to share these beloved gems--let’s dive into the places that make Edinburgh truly special, far beyond the typical web search.
