    Any recommendations for lunch in the city centre? Quirky would be good, but not essential as long as the ambience (and food!) good. Meeting old friends for the first time since lockdown - they were coming to stay, but today's announcement has knocked that on the head, so we're meeting up in Edinburgh instead.
    Dusit is good for lunch, £15.95 for 2 courses. Its Thai food. I've been there twice recently and enjoyed it.
    Space to let

    Sadly the guy who told me had booked New Chapter for Monday lunch actually hadn’t and when he tried it was fully booked! We ended up at the Raeburn, wasn’t great and I wouldn’t rush back.

    Saturday night at my favourite local Indian Eastern Pavillion was excellent as it always is.

    I’ve been to New Chapter twice, can’t recommend it highly enough, and I’d been meaning to go try Otro too. That’s a shame.

    I'll second Dusit - never been for lunch, but had dinner there a few times and it's always been excellent.

    Had lunch in Cafe Royal recently. Food was good, plenty good beer on tap and one of the most beautiful bars edinburgh has to offer.

    The Piper’s Rest at The Tron......of course I may have a vested interest. We are currently 10th best restaurant in Edinburgh tho. No bad for a pub that only opened in January.

    The way it should be

    He's a good pal of mine but haven't spoken to him much in the last couple of months, will fire up for a steak pie soon, glad it's all going well for you

    There’s a new chippy coming, close to the city centre and co owned by a good Hibee. Heard it will be something special and opening mid November.

    We need something to rival the fish market in the city.

    Going to one of our favourite restaurants this Saturday for my wife's birthday - La Garrigue.

    It wasn't the first choice however as originally we wanted somewhere neither of us had been before but I must have looked at over fifteen places that were completely sold out. Hopefully the restaurant trade in Edinburgh is recovering. I couldn't believe the lack of availability across an array of different restaurants.

    The name hasn’t been released yet, it’s on the site of the old Cafe Rapido.

    I was at Tattu again last night.

    Pretty much reaffirmed my view after my 1st visit. Setting lovely, service excellent, food so so.

    Had I not had a voucher I probably wouldn't have went a 2nd time and I doubt there will be a 3rd visit.
    I’ve been once and really enjoyed the food after hearing a very similar review to yours. I think we maybe got lucky with the chef the time we went.

    Reduced capacity for social distancing will have an impact but fingers crossed.

    RivalThe Fishmarket? Do people still get their food at least an hour after they should get it despite standing outside in all weather and having pre-ordered online hours before!!

    I had a bad experience there ( can you tell?)and I am very unlikely to go back.
    The food was not even that good but the attitude of owners really put me off them.

    Nothing much for them to beat then!

    I have used the fish market once since lockdown at lunch time and my time slot was spot on with food delivery, though I have heard of many experiences similar to yours. The food was pretty decent though.

    Pretty much overpriced though. I don’t eat fish, so had the chicken Goujons, and it was £14, and that’s without mushy peas
    I was with my wife and mum, both had the fish and loved it

    I think the Fish suppers we had were £10 each, so definitely a bit pricier than normal but I thought it was decent value for what we got.
