About Edinburgh

What this list covers

Six venues sit in EH2, five in EH1 — that cluster around the New Town and Old Town spine means most of the list is walkable from Princes Street rather than a car journey. EH6 and EH12 add four sites each, covering Leith and the Corstorphine corridor respectively, so the city's outer neighbourhoods are not ignored. Pizza Express, Nando's and the Morrisons cafés are the biggest presences here, with Pizza Hut just behind. Altogether 16 distinct chains are represented, from Franco Manca to Côte Brasserie. A timing note: Frankie and Benny's and BrewDog activate their kids-eat-free arrangements only during the school holidays, so the week you visit will change what's available to you.

Holiday-only chains in Edinburgh: Chaophraya, Frankie & Benny's, Village Hotels Pub & Grill, Zizzi. These quietly flip in for half-term and summer; outside the school holidays they drop off the list.
