Located in the heart of Edinburgh’s bustling city centre, The Cambridge Bar is not to be missed. Characterised by its warm atmosphere and stylish decor, it manages to achieve the perfect balance of sophistication and rustic charm.

Snacks and appetisers include mixed olives and nachos, but make sure you leave room for the pièce de résistance – the gourmet burgers. Once you have sampled these adventurous culinary creations, made with perfect buns from a local artisan baker, you’ll never view burgers in the same way again. From the vegetarianfriendly Portabella, which combines a large, juicy mushroom with mozzarella, sundried tomatoes, chargrilled peppers, mayonnaise, rocket and relish, to the meaty Aussie creation comprising beef, bacon, Cheddar, pineapple and a fried egg, there is something to suit everyone’s tastes. Those who want something different can tuck into a top-quality Aberdeen Angus rib-eye steak. Mouth-watering desserts include giant homemade chocolate brownies.

The Cambridge Bar stands out from the crowd in terms of its drinks selection. Behind the bar you’ll find a craft bottled beer range, the likes of Brewdog and Schiehallion on draught, and a guest-ale line dedicated to Scottish independent and micro brewers. It’s also one of only two bars in Edinburgh to offer Brooklyn lager on tap. As a place to drink, dine and generally relax, The Cambridge Bar simply cannot be beaten.
