Wandering up here to continue our tour, stopping for some light bites and coffee on the most photographed street in Edinburgh! Some say it's the inspiration for Diagon Alley in Harry Potter? We're not so sure...
Usher Hall
Edinburgh's main concert hall but how old is it really and what significance does it have to Edinburgh's food and drink? We have our first bite to eat and a drink here as well.

The world's first skyscraper? Linked for centuries with traders and drinks merchants.
We walk a the Royal Mile pointing out areas of interest before finishing with food and drink at the end of it in one of the historic little alleyways coming off Old Edinburgh's main thoroughfare.
We pause outside to discuss what ties together this church, Mary Queen of Scots, Sirloin Steak and the car park at the back? Intrigued? You should be.
15 minutes
On Saturday's only! We stop off to meet some of the producers of amazing Scottish produce, sample their goods and hear their story. A proper 'behind the scenes' opportunity for anybody that likes their food.
Drink one of the most unique and quintessentially Scottish beers you'll find accompanied by a delicacy that's origins might surprise you to find are not as Scottish as they seem.
30 minutes
We'll introduce to some Scottish street food and the suppliers behind them whose passion and love for what they do shines through into their food.

I.J. Mellis Cheesemonger
3 Scottish cheeses, oatcakes and a surprise exclusive addition? It must a treat from a venerable Scottish institution.
30 minutes
Here we end the tour with a visit to a couple of location, close to each other but matched by the quality of tradition food on offer. we'll make sure you go home well fed and watered as we try Cullen Skin (a traditional soup) Cranachan (a cream and fruit based desert) get a bit of whisky tasting going and, of course, haggis!
