ABOUT EVERYTHING EDINBURGH
Who we are
Everything Edinburgh is an independent city guide run by a small team based in Edinburgh. We are not a tourism board, an agency or a content farm — we live here, we go there, and we pay for our own coffee. What started as a neighbourhood blog has grown into one of the most detailed guides to the city online, covering everything from Michelin-starred dining on George Street to the correct platform for the tram to the airport.
Our casino and betting section is the exception to the “boots on the ground” rule: it is written and maintained by a dedicated industry analyst rather than a generalist, because licensing, wagering terms and withdrawal policies deserve specialist attention. It operates under a strict advertising and affiliate policy.
What we cover
Food & DrinkRestaurant reviews, coffee, pubs, whisky bars — all visited in person.
Things to DoAttractions, tours, museums, free days out and rainy-day backups.
Where to StayHotels, hostels and neighbourhoods picked by budget and trip type.
Festivals & EventsFringe, Hogmanay, Christmas markets and what is actually worth queueing for.
Casino & Betting GuidesLicensed-operator reviews, crypto casinos, bonus analysis, responsible gambling.
How we work
- First-hand only. Every venue, route and attraction we recommend has been visited by someone on the team. We do not rewrite other people’s guides.
- Kept current. Prices, opening hours and parking tariffs are re-checked whenever a guide is revised — look for the “Updated” date at the top of each article.
- Independent. Editorial placements are not for sale. Where we earn an affiliate commission (our casino guides), it is disclosed on the page itself and explained in our Advertising Policy.
- Correctable. Spot something outdated or wrong? Tell us and we will verify and fix it.
