This bakery lives up to all the hype. Take away only (pick up a pastry) and have a walk along the water of Leith walkway. Best day to beat the queue is Thurs mornings. Weekends are busy so arrive early as it usually sells out. Open Thurs-Sunday only.

This has to by favourite place (just outside) Edinburgh. It is an absolutely treat to walk through this exquisite parkland filled with sculptural treasures. It is a hassle to get there on public transport abs pretty easy by car, but you will not be disappointed. A great restaurant and cafe there too.
