Follow the fairy lights down Monteith's Close, halfway along the Royal Mile, and you'll find one of the Old Town's best-kept secrets. Since 2006, Monteiths has paired a chic cocktail bar with an intimate, dimly lit restaurant, and the kitchen is all about modern Scottish cooking built on the country's finest produce. Expect Scottish seafood, game and beef, cooked simply and finished with a contemporary touch. The bar team has real pedigree too, so save room for one more cocktail before you head back up the close into the bustle of the High Street.
