Auld and New in Edinburgh

An Insider’s Guide to the Best Places to Eat, Drink, and Explore
The perfect guide for locals and visitors alike, discover the best of Edinburgh's cobbled closes, coffee shops, cosy pubs, bars and shops, and where to go on both dry and dreich days

Auld and New in Edinburgh is your curated guide to the best of the Scottish capital, highlighting the most interesting cultural, shopping, eating and drinking experiences.

Bursting with history and a heart warm enough for even the chilliest of winter days, Edinburgh is one of Europe’s must-see cities. Be charmed as you travel through Edinburgh's diverse neighbourhoods – from the cobbled closes and bagpipers of the Royal Mile to the thriving food scene in Leith's regenerated docklands.

Author Lucy Dodsworth shares Edinburgh's highlights and unlocks some of its lesser-known gems, including secret gardens, speakeasy-style cocktail bars and subterranean streets. Full and half-day itineraries help you navigate the best of the city, and daytrips to Inchcolm Island, North Berwick, Glasgow and St Andrews encourage you to venture further afield.
