A little espresso, a little ice cream and suddenly Monday’s looking a whole lot better. ☕🍨

Our affogato is a pretty good excuse to make room for pudding, or simply pop in for something sweet to start the week.

Call 0131 226 3131 to book a table. 📞

A good steak, a generous helping of golden chips and plenty of rich peppercorn sauce. 🤌🥩

Sometimes you know exactly what you fancy, and this is pretty hard to beat.

Pull up a chair at The Outsider and let us take care of dinner. ✨

Ahh, a little reminder that it’s not always so rainy in Edinburgh. ☀️🏰

Golden skies over the castle, a lovely view from the dining room and a little candlelight as the evening settles in.

Not a bad way to spend a Monday at The Outsider. Open until 10pm. 🕯️

Storm Boelo’s on its way, but there’s still time to make the most of Saturday before the winds pick up. 🍂☕️

After a few days of dreich Edinburgh weather, a smooth flat white, a delicious lunch and a warm, candlelit corner sound pretty good to us.

Come in off George IV Bridge and enjoy a little food for the soul before the storm rolls in. 🕯️

There’s something about a busy lunch at The Outsider. 🍽️

Mussels on the table, w**e being poured and the team making their way through a room full of happy diners. All while Edinburgh carries on just outside the windows.

A very good way to spend an afternoon in the Old Town. 🚲✨
