Tigerlily

On Edinburgh's prestigious George Street, Tigerlily is an all-day bar and restaurant that moves gracefully from sun-up serenity to lights-out glamour. The mood is modern and cosmopolitan, with Mediterranean leanings and playful global accents.

Small starters set the tone: garlic and sea salt focaccia with whipped truffle and parmesan butter, or roast beetroot hummus crowned with pistachio dukkah. Comfort glows in the butternut squash soup with chilli jam, while baked king prawns arrive fragrant with garlic and smoked paprika.

For mains, king prawn linguine dances with ginger pesto and sweet chilli, while a sea bass fillet glides in on crushed herb potatoes, celeriac purée, and white wine butter. Classics are also on offer: a Scottish steak burger, buttermilk chicken, and steaks from the grill served with chips and sauces.

Book in for Aperitivo, linger for dinner, or stay for a nightcap. Go on, let Tigerlily show its stripes.
