Easily identifiable by its al fresco check tables and the echo of enviable French accents, ‘Petit Paris’ offers an authentic taste of France in the unlikely environs of the Grassmarket.
 
Like true Parisians, patrons sip coffee and wine, eat the copious baskets of fresh baguettes and splurge on truly spectacular food. Lunch time deals are particularly reasonable, with hearty mains including pork with a mustard sauce or salmon and crayfish salad costing only £7.90. If you can manage, finish with a slice of rich chocolate torte and vanilla sauce – c’est magnifique!
 
A diamond amongst the rough and rowdy Grassmarket pubs, Petit Paris will stir an "ooh la la" from the most patriotic Scot.
