Bar Kohl

Bar Kohl is an Edinburgh institution. A staple of the capital's drinking scene, Bar Kohl's cocktails and vodka infusions have been famous amongst locals since 1993. The accomplished kitchen's top-notch food has also gained an excellent reputation in the last three years. Visit over the weekend and try the legendary breakfasts - perhaps sample yummy eggs Benedict or go all out and get a full Scottish or veggie breakfast, all cooked fresh and guaranteed to ease a hangover. Bagels and buns are a lunchtime favourite, from the turkey stack bagel piled high with leaves, Jack cheese, sliced tomato and guacamole to the hot pastrami ciabatta. Gourmet burgers are a house speciality, made using 100-per-cent Aberdeen Angus certified beef and Scottish free-range chicken supplied daily by a local butcher. Highlights of the extensive selection include the Acapulco - bacon, guacamole and Jack cheese - and the Green Grocer, a homemade corn, bean and yam patty that's tasty enough to convert even the staunchest carnivore.

If you're looking for a substantial evening meal, Bar Kohl has it covered. With everything from homemade lamb meatballs with fresh spaghetti to classic bangers and mash (with locally famous Crombie's sausages) and beer-battered fish on offer, even those with the heartiest of appetites will be satisfied. Whether you're looking for a creative cocktail, a shot of exotically flavoured vodka or just want to enjoy quality food, you don't have to look any further than Bar Kohl.
