Howies is a casual, cafe-style restaurant serving Scottish food. They specialize in dishes made with fresh local produce. You'll find a second branch of Howies at the east end of Princes Street, and the expansion is testament to the success and popularity of the original. If you like good quality, hearty, unfussy food then Howies is the place for you. You can get fixed price lunch menus and early dining deals. Options include real Scottish classics as starters, like Cullen Skink (smoked fish and potato soup), haggis, neeps and tatties, and smoked salmon. The Victoria Street restaurant is just a few minutes' walk from the castle.
