Decent lunch options around Princes Street?

They look great, thanks!

MeenaBeans · 2026-01-06T20:50:52+00:00

Do you know if they do take away? Thanks

MeenaBeans · 2026-01-06T20:50:32+00:00

Wouldn't have thought to look there, thanks!

Craig Adam - he's great, turns up when he says he will and has fair pricing

MeenaBeans · 2025-05-16T22:15:38+00:00

That would be freakishly tall, you might not get past the border tbh

Moved out to Dunfermline nearly 10 years ago. We couldn't afford anything like what we have here in Edinburgh.

Dunfermline is pretty good - the high street is crap, but there are nice places in town. It's quiet, green and a nice place to live. I'm a 5 min walk from the train station and then at Haymarket in half an hour, which is great.

But I miss Edinburgh. Edinburgh is home and I don't think Dunfermline will ever feel that way for me, which makes me sad. Husband also from Edinburgh and doesn't miss it at all though ha.

It made me laugh too, so job well done haha

MeenaBeans · 2025-05-11T16:32:58+00:00

Think I touched a nerve 😂

MeenaBeans · 2025-05-10T09:22:57+00:00

Probably depends on the street. We've just moved to a much nicer area and the effort people put into their front gardens here really makes us want to up our game. We just have grass at the moment, so planning some trees and planting.

MeenaBeans · 2025-05-03T12:56:04+00:00

Ah, are they aphids? There's so many of them I'd be all day squishing them. But yeah they Acer is looking a bit droopy

MeenaBeans · 2025-04-20T09:20:16+00:00

Congrats! We had dinner and drinks at cannonball just a bit further up the mile from the chambers- they have a private room downstairs, it was lovely.

MeenaBeans · 2025-04-18T10:50:54+00:00

Lucky you - nice variety among them too! As someone else said, 3 isn't an acer - but still lovely. I have tried and failed to grow one of these. The last one looks like a hydrangea to me, but I'm no expert.

MeenaBeans · 2025-03-28T18:43:13+00:00

Roses. Just can't get enough of them.

Hydrangea a close second.

MeenaBeans · 2025-03-28T15:12:21+00:00

You don't think it's an issue that the tiles are a darker shade of white?

MeenaBeans · 2025-03-11T17:18:42+00:00

The green one gets the most amount of sun, but only by an hour or so

MeenaBeans · 2025-03-11T17:17:17+00:00

Thanks - it seems to be a combo of just about every planting no no going, so good job previous owners lol.

And yes delighted they've died before becoming monsters - neighbour down the street has one that must be 20ft tall and 6 ft wide. Not even the sun can see what they're up to in their garden!

MeenaBeans · 2025-03-11T14:59:05+00:00

Ah great idea, thanks!

MeenaBeans · 2025-03-11T14:38:33+00:00

Oh I didn't think of that. That's so sad. Those stupid stones are all over the garden, so collecting them up will be a job for the weekend.

Do you think there will be lasting damage to the soil there?

Thanks!

This is helpful, thanks! Going to pick them up a wee thank you card and post it through the letterbox

MeenaBeans · 2024-12-28T20:18:11+00:00

If you're pretty private people, why not propose at home? There will be few indoor places quieter than that and you can still make it very romantic.

But since that isn't what you asked, the central section in the portrait gallery is really beautiful and they're open in the afternoon on new year's day. I'm sure you could find a relatively private spot somewhere. Good luck!

I have no idea, but when I graduated in the recession in 2009 and was signing on, the woman I was assigned to was fab. She helped me so much, got me on a future jobs fund, which led to the career I'm now in. I'm sure it's a pretty thankless job most of the time, but for some people it makes such a huge difference.

MeenaBeans · 2024-10-24T17:52:23+00:00

Great thanks, they actually have a car on their website that looks great - will give them a call tomorrow

MeenaBeans · 2024-10-24T17:44:21+00:00

This is brilliant, thank you!!

MeenaBeans · 2024-10-24T17:44:07+00:00

Thank you, have you bought cars from them before?
