Just a handful of extra tips! If you're a sausage connoisseur (I dare you to add that to you LinkedIn profile), Superoni's got your back! I. J. Mellis is the OBVIOUS spot to pick up cheese from, and I thought most of you would find that to be too much of an easy tip, but if you're after a taster of British cheeses, they are a good spot! Kenji is a sushi restaurant from the same owners as Bentoya (❤) - fresh Japanese food if that's what you're craving!

Some other spots that we love to highlight when others visit: Hector's Pub (excellent food), Raeburn Hotel (also excellent food), Beira (Sustainable Fashion Boutique), Cheese n' Toasted (great spot for quick lunch), Inverleith Park, Cafe Gallo

As a schoolboy until the age of 20, I lived in Stockbridge, Edinburgh, from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. The video confirms that Stockbridge still has the charming ambience I felt all those years ago.

I swear, every time you show pics around Edinburgh, or in this case, Stockbridge, and have that piano music in the background, l get all emotional, missing that area so much! Thanks for another perfect video! Next time I'm there, Stockbridge, Dean Village, and Fife are all on my list to visit. Never seen any of those in person, in the 22 years I've been visiting. 👍😁😁😁👍

Loved the video as always. Last time I was in Edinburgh I walked along the river walk from Dean village to Stockbridge. I passed St Bernard's well and eventually reached St. Bernard's Bridge. First thing I said when I saw the place was 'this would be great for a photo shoot.'

As a former Stockbridge resident, I give my stamp of approval for the way you presented this charming neighborhood and highlighting some of the best places to visit :) My favorite thing about this place is that you can keep re-visiting it and do something else each time. It's a perfect spot to have a walk with a friend and decide what you want to do - grab a coffee and something sweet, go book shopping (or watching), do a charity shops tour, grab a brunch/lunch/dinner, have a glass of red with cheese nibbles and do people watching, head to a speakeasy or one of the pubs, stroll in one of the parks (I always considered botanics and Inverleith park as Stockbridge adjacent) or just through the neighborhood. It never really dawned on me before, but being from the so-called continental Europe myself, Stockbridge has a bit of that flair which is maybe why I always felt very comfortable here and love coming back. Another plus to mention is how central and close Stockbridge is to city centre and other boroughs. Edinburgh is extremely walkable city, but this area really gets you both, the village feel and central location. The downside some folk may note are bus routes (I was bus 36-dependent for a while) - not much of a time difference between walking and taking a bus sometimes.
@Kakibot
@Kakibot 9 месяцев назад
Stockbridge similarly to Bruntsfield is this centre-adjacent little gem, isn't it! For me it's a really pleasant 20 minute walk from Haymarket, but I think for someone who might not be as able bodied, the connection between certain parts of town can be a bit frustrating ./ I'm glad the trams have revived the connection between West End and Leith at least!

@Kakibot
@Kakibot 9 месяцев назад
Thank you! So glad to hear you find these videos helpful .) I'd say that the charity shops in the area can be surprisingly affordable, or more like "better deals" - I guess it's because the locals are quite affluent so they donate nicer things than in the studenty areas 😅

I love the stockbridge area. I always get at least once brunch at the pantry when I am in Edinburgh. I really like the vibe of that area and a treat from Twelve triangles or Söderberg is always welcome even Kvasa has my favorite cinnamon bun of whole Edinburgh. But i never will step into that cheese shop again. 😅 The cheese might be amazing but back in 2019 I also got a scotch egg from there and got food poisoning from it (it was the only thing I ate and didnt share that day). Their reaction afterwards when I came back from the hospital and wrote them an email was amazing and had a lovely contact to them as they really were concerned about it but sadly this experience ruined that cheese heaven for me. 😆
@Kakibot
@Kakibot 9 месяцев назад
Oh noooooo! I totally know what you mean, a food poisoning really sets up one's brain for avoiding a place for years to come! Had that happen to me with eggs benedict down in leith once (maybe we should just... not eat eggs 😅 ) and can't stomach hollandaise ever since 😐
@franninchen
@franninchen 9 месяцев назад
@@Kakibot funnily enough every Scottish person that spoke to me about it was in total denial that you can get food poisoning from a scotch egg. 😂 they are pretty proud of them it seems. But I never will eat one again. I have to admit it took me 2 years to be able to eat eggs again in general. I was about to skip them for vacations as well but those eggs florentine in the Pantry are just too good to miss out on them. 😂 Luckily the eggs and hollandaise were safe this time. But I might be a bit more careful with eggs when I come back as I am solo traveling through Scotland the next time I visit. Just in case. 😅

​@@Kakibot Well you maybe shouldn't have called the video a "Local's guide to Stockbridge." as the issue is is that you refer to streets, places and business in the video as specifically being in Stockbridge when they are not. You can't promote a neighbourhood without defining it first or you end up with something based on other peoples social media posts and opinions. As a Stockbridge resident for almost 30 years I found the video both confusing and misleading.
