    If its for this month you'll be hard pushed to find anything still available because of the festival. They also put the prices up, cost my friend £400 for a week over at the meadows! :eek:

    Ivory and Willow is fine if you want a panini or something (it's the place with the silver man in the window) but I don't think they really do meals. Winston's is meant to be nice enough - it's the pub down the one way street to the library. Apart from that it's the Toby carvery or the Wetherspoons White Lady, or a couple of other pubs I've never been in.

    Had breakfast in the White Lady the other week, £7 odd for two including 2 x hot chocolate, it was nice enough.

    The Corstorphine Inn used to be popular but haven't been in years. Fabios (Italian) and the Manor House(Chinese) at Drumbrae Roundabout are both popular. Alternatively get picnic stuff and take a walk to the top of Corstorphine Hill,great views on a sunny day - it's the sunny day you may have the problem getting!

    Walked passed the shop yesterday and it's very definitely a woman, unless the silver guy has man boobs :rotfl:

    Abidas really nice for an indian / Thai business lunch.

    Much prefer Wongs to the Manor house for chinese - better food, better service, better prices.

    Depends what you want. Why Corstorphine btw? If you were prepared to go down as far as Haymarket there's plenty there and you pass a shedload of places on the way. There's even a Japanese restaurant at Murrayfield.
