Overview

Come with us to eat and drink like a local! We've blended together an exciting mixture of the best food and drink Scotland produces, the best locations in the Old Town of Edinburgh and some of the most enjoyable stories from Edinburgh's long past to make sure that whether you're in Edinburgh for a day, a week, a month or you’re a local looking to fall back in love with your city, you'll have a great time and learn something. Our guides all come from the food and drink industry meaning they can bring their knowledge and passion of Scotland's quality produce to make sure you go away having sampled the best food that's unique to Scotland. We also intentionally tour past all the places you'll want to see in the Old Town of Edinburgh for some truly unmissable pictures. Let us introduce you to Edinburgh, our food, our best locations, our most passionate producers and our wonderfully rich and interesting history.

Itinerary

  • Edinburgh Castle (Pass By)

    Our whole tour is in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle, talking about some of the history surrounding it and viewing from 3, less seen aspects.

  • Grassmarket

    We spend some time eating in the historic Grassmarket, the centre of ancient Edinburgh's civic life. Here, we reveal a bit of the history and the strong links with the food and drink culture of Edinburgh.

    30 minutes

  • Victoria street (Pass By)

    Wandering up here to continue our tour, stopping for some light bites and coffee on the most photographed street in Edinburgh! Some say it's the inspiration for Diagon Alley in Harry Potter? We're not so sure...

  • Usher Hall (Pass By)

    Edinburgh's main concert hall but how old is it really and what significance does it have to Edinburgh's food and drink? We have our first bite to eat and a drink here as well.

  • Lawnmarket

    The bustling road below the Castle, we stop here for coffee roasted in Edinburgh.

    15 minutes

  • Gladstone's Land (Pass By)

    The world's first skyscraper? Linked for centuries with traders and drinks merchants.

  • Royal Mile (Pass By)

    We walk a the Royal Mile pointing out areas of interest before finishing with food and drink at the end of it in one of the historic little alleyways coming off Old Edinburgh's main thoroughfare.

  • St Giles' Cathedral

    We pause outside to discuss what ties together this church, Mary Queen of Scots, Sirloin Steak and the car park at the back? Intrigued? You should be.

    15 minutes

  • Edinburgh Farmers' Market (Pass By)

    On Saturday's only! We stop off to meet some of the producers of amazing Scottish produce, sample their goods and hear their story. A proper 'behind the scenes' opportunity for anybody that likes their food.

  • Innis & Gunn at No 6

    Drink one of the most unique and quintessentially Scottish beers you'll find accompanied by a delicacy that's origins might surprise you to find are not as Scottish as they seem.

    30 minutes

  • Edinburgh Farmers' Market

    We'll introduce to some Scottish street food and the suppliers behind them whose passion and love for what they do shines through into their food.

    30 minutes

  • I.J. Mellis Cheesemonger

    3 Scottish cheeses, oatcakes and a surprise exclusive addition? It must a treat from a venerable Scottish institution.

    30 minutes

  • John Knox House Museum

    Here we end the tour with a visit to a couple of location, close to each other but matched by the quality of tradition food on offer. we'll make sure you go home well fed and watered as we try Cullen Skin (a traditional soup) Cranachan (a cream and fruit based desert) get a bit of whisky tasting going and, of course, haggis!

Yum!!

Published on May, 2025

Fantastic way to explore Edinburgh, learn a bit of its history and sample wonderful local food. Our guide Courtney was very engaging and knowledgeable, and across the different stops on the tour we got to try a good range of delicious food and drink. A real highlight of our trip to the city - thank you!

Wonderful and varied food

Published on Oct, 2024

What a great tour. The group was small so we had a very intimate time. Courtney did a marvelous job. She shared a lot of history and exposed us to Scottish food and drink some of which we had never had before. The haggis was outstanding! Make sure that you come hungry as you will leave more than full!

Great tour and guide!

Good snacks to try with plenty for the whole group. Interesting history and nicely paced (not too fast or too slow). Tour guide was excellent and well informed. My only issue is that this tour is listed as wheelchair accessible but unfortunately it isn’t as there is a large set of steps to go down, hilly areas, and tight seating in restaurants that don’t seem equipped to handle wheelchairs.
