Diner 7

Diner 7 is a laid back little café in Leith’s vibrant Shore district. Despite its unassuming appearance it is as good for an intimate evening rendezvous as it is for a lazy lunch with friends.

Generous cuts of beef, burgers like they should be and a wonderful tuna steak make up the core chargrill offering. A changing menu of specials, exhibiting inventive playfulness in their creation, compliments them. The intimacy between diner and kitchen only serves to support the authenticity of the food, evident in fresh, flavourful and seasonal ingredients.

Leith isn’t generally the first stop in your festival diary, but a short journey on the 22 bus rewards you with an authentic and restorative dining experience not so far from the maddening crowds.
