Bruntsfield Boutique Bonanza

A wonderful opportunity to visit a lovely neighbourhood of Edinburgh and support local independent businesses and eateries. Bruntsfield is not far from the city centre and easily accessible by a frequent bus service. At peak tourist season you can escape the crowds and congestion!

The four shops on our tour have been personally selected by myself because I am a customer. Each stock different British and European brands from each other. The shops are independently owned and have knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming staff. They offer a range of different and stylish clothes and accessories that you will not find on the high street or in a chain store.

We shall visit:

• Oh! Ruby Shoes
• Andiamo
• Chi
• Vivaldi

If there is sufficient time, we shall also pop into Nice Stuff, a gorgeous gift and accessory shop.

Bruntsfield has a wide range of independent shops including several jewellery shops, accessory and gift shops, two card shops, a book shop, two décor/interior design shops, a specialist children’s shoe shop and a delicatessen with a small area for eating too.  You will be spoiled for choice. There are independent coffee shops and a broad range of places to enjoy lunch.

Adjoining Bruntsfield is Churchill and Morningside with further retail opportunities and other places to eat including a famous ice-cream shop and a fabulous chocolatier at the bottom of Morningside Road, the main shopping street.

At the end of your 3-hour experience you may wish to make a day of it, have lunch and explore all the other shops in your own time.

Suggested options for lunch:

• Black Ivy
• Honeycomb
• Decanter
• Café Grande
• Piggs, Spanish tapas and wine bar

It is possible to combine ‘Brunstfield Boutique Bonanza’  shopping tour with ‘Neighbourhood Nibbles’, my Scottish food tasting tour in Bruntsfield and Morningside for a special whole day experience.
