The stunning mahogany bar and gantry still remain from the halcyon days of pub culture along with beautiful stained glass windows and an amazing frieze running right round the room depicting Leith’s nautical history, but food is now at the heart of Nobles.

But the lunch menu (served daily from 12-4.30pm Monday to Friday) featuring home-made burgers, fish and chips, steak and eggs, wild rice and vegetable pilaf, veggie haggis and beetroot burger was why I was here.

The potatoes were cooked to perfection – soft but still with a bite, and the fish was melt-in-your-mouth delicious.

Next up Mr Bite had deep, dark, richly flavoured soft Juniper braised beef cheeks with smoked potato puree, buttered kale, baby carrot and bone marrow jus (£17.95).

Petit fours (£4.95) for dessert are a good idea especially if you have taken advantage of delicious homemade bread and high quality olive oil throughout.

This beautifully re-vamped Victorian bar is easily one of the best Leith has to offer, with a good selection of beers, which the lovely staff will often encourage you to sample, and the food a step up from your usual pub grub.

Roast Guinea Fowl Supreme and Pan Fried Loch Etive Sea Trout are just a couple of examples of dishes on the varied menu, but never fear, there are more traditional choices too.

There's also a good selection of veggie fare available for those who are not fans of, y'know, guinea fowl, for example the mouth-watering Kale & Crowdie Pearl Barley Arancini.

Every year, The Skinny carries out an extensive Food and Drink Survey, in which we pick your brains for the best pubs, cafes, restaurants and food shops in Scotland.

Nobles came up tops in the Best Pubs & Bars category in our 2018 Food and Drink Survey, along with Inn Deep, The Hanging Bat and Paradise Palms.

One of Leith's best looking pubs, serving good food and full of old-world charm.

Nobles may technically be a pub, but it certainly doesn't act like one.

Set in the heart of Leith's historic shore, the re-imagined Victorian space is filled with colourful mismatched furniture, vivacious artwork and a giant framed picture of Bill Murray.

Pub grub staples are nowhere to be seen on the elegant evening mains menu, which features the likes of roast pheasant, Scottish crab claw and squash jalousie.

If the giant Bill Murray picture piqued your interest, hold onto your hats: there's also a portrait of Bjork.

Nobles Cafe Bar is a venerable establishment that benefits from a praiseworthy chef and waiting staff, says Louisa Finch It may be a school night, but when there’s sunshine on Leith what’s a girl to do but get out of the house in search of some convivial company and good food?

At our table Mr Finch is framed by an oil painting of galleons doing battle at sea, photos of Frank Zappa and Picasso and a stained glass panel overhead.

Despite my having begged Mr F not to order pork belly due to it never meeting his standards, he goes ahead and opts for the pork belly & squid (£7.50).

It comes with Thai crab cakes, béarnaise and a soy dipping sauce and fries, all of which are declared fresh, tasty and perfectly cooked, but from the sideways glances he’s giving the people at the next table, both of whom have epic platefuls of fish and chips, I can tell there’s some food envy going on.

My favourite is the white chocolate and fresh walnut, then the wild card in the pack is a little crystallised jelly which tastes like a mango colliding spectacularly with a cola cube.
