Best Comfort Food Restaurants in Leith

Lovely experience good food friendly and attentive staff

We tried the chef meze tasting menu, and it was excellent! Every dish was so flavorful and delicious, but the bruschetta and chorizo were amazing. We’ve tried other tapas places along the Leith Walk, but this was by far the best! Definitely will return.

Waitress and other staff really good. Thanks for giving us a great afternoon watching the rugby.

The ivy was so beautiful the after noon special was amazing great value for money

A hidden gem near the theatre We stopped by The Broughton for a pre-theatre dinner and were genuinely delighted by the experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff were warm, friendly and impressively attentive — striking that perfect balance between professional and relaxed. The food was beautifully presented and full of flavour. The fish and chips were crisp and satisfying, while the sea trout was a real highlight — delicately cooked and paired with thoughtful accompaniments. The wine list was well chosen and our glass of white was particularly delicious, complementing the dishes perfectly. The atmosphere was calm and welcoming and the space itself was spotless — clean, tidy and stylish without being showy. A great find, especially for dinner before a performance. Highly recommended for locals and tourists alike — whether you’re heading out for a date night or simply looking for a quality meal in a relaxed setting.
