I used to work in Livingston (just west of Edinburgh) in the mid 80's so this is a bit out of date...maybe

Pub...my favorite Greyfriar's Bobby Greyfriars Bobby Bar - presented by Edinburgh Pub Guide ...

Great story behind the name...check it out

There also used to be a place nicknamed "Diggers" 'cause the grave diggers would go there after work... tremendous local atmosphere...your hotel people should know it if it still exists....

No trip to edinburgh is complete without visiting Hawes Inn....The Hawes Inn, which dates back to 17th century, was an inspiration for Edinburgh author Robert Louis Stevenson when in 1886, while staying in Room 13, he came up with the idea for Kidnapped. The hero of the book also stays at the inn. Easy cab ride

Other pubs: Too many to list... almost all excellent. lots around the Haymarket area

Try the Belhaven Ale...a wonderful local treat.

Try "Haggis with Nips and Tatties" at your own risk.

Indian food....can't beat Lancers

Good luck....
