Eat & Drink 365 Edinburgh will return in mid-May for its second edition after a successful first run in 2025. Printed in a handy portable size, it will be available free as a supplement in The Scotsman on Saturday 16 May and on general release on Monday 18 May. This sister publication to The List is designed to help readers navigate the restaurants, diners, cafés and bars worth visiting in Scotland’s capital. Covering almost 400 places to eat and drink, each batch of recommendations is presented in the form of a TipList, listicle-style selections of venues for every mood, covering the key areas of the city. 

The Eat & Drink 365 guides complement The List’s already extensive eat and drink coverage in the monthly List magazine and online, where readers can find year-round reviews, news, features and interviews to stay up-to-date with new openings, key issues and local personalities as well as keeping abreast with the best of the well-established venues. 

The List’s Eat & Drink editor Donald Reid (pictured above) said: ‘You don’t need a guide like this to tell you that the eating and drinking scene in Edinburgh is vibrant, creative and fast-moving. But given the plethora of choices on offer, you might need an independent, broad-ranging guide like this to help navigate the dining decisions you might be making, whether you’re heading out for a slap-up treat, looking for a characterful spot for a drink with pals, hoping to grab a tasty bite before a gig or seeking out a great curry. Our TipLists, all researched by our team of locally based writers, provide the low-down on the venues worth knowing about in different parts of the city, in different categories and styles of food and drink, and for practical situations like dining with a younger family or trying to find somewhere decent to go on a Tuesday night. Flick through a few pages and you’ll soon start making plans to head out for something tasty to eat and drink.’

The Eat & Drink 365 guides are the latest development in an on-going partnership between The List and sponsor William Grant & Sons to support the coverage of the dynamic food, drink and hospitality scene in and around Glasgow and Edinburgh.
