Things and Stuff in Edinburgh is a wiki for information on free, low-cost, worthy and notable spaces, groups, institutions and other things and stuff in and around or relating to Edinburgh. Welcome! The site was born on 22/6/09. Add things using the 'edit' tab above. Feel free to create an account or just go ahead and edit. If you don't know where to add a link, stick it in the 'To sort' section. Keep it in the remit though, thanks! You can also receive Things and Stuff to do in Edinburgh related event updates via Facebook and Twitter. If you're feeling generous, you could buy me a book!

Updates: This is all old.

Cafes

Forest Café as above and elsewhere, in Tollcross.

  • Café Renroc - 91 Montgomery Street, New Town. Neighbour of Nevo Complementary Health Studio, Café Renroc is a detoxifying refresher of a café. Expect herbal teas, freshly squeezed or blended fruit juices and plenty of tasty filled ciabatta or foccaccia breads, quiches and - somewhat unexpectedly, but yummy nonetheless - stromboli. And if the detox really isn't for you, Renroc is fully licensed. Why's it called Renroc? Cos it's on the corner! Geddit?
  • Caffe Lucano is a real family affair. The values of brother and sister proprietors, Antonello and Elisa Esposito, are reflected in everything from the care of our cooking to the warmth of our welcome.
