Tucked inside Tynecastle Park stadium, this is a smarter sit-down dinner that still works with children in tow — free parking outside, step-free access if you've got a pram, high chairs and a kids' menu. Families notice the welcome first: staff greet you properly, check in without hovering, and happily tweak dishes when someone's fussy. Sunday roast beef gets the loudest praise, along with the fish and chips, the eggs benedict at breakfast and a butterscotch pudding people come back for. The room is calm and relaxed rather than buzzy, with city views, though the dining room itself is fairly plain and the "skyline" is more restricted than the name suggests. Book ahead, especially around match days and Christmas. Quality can dip on an off night, but the set menu is decent value at this price.

A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
