Arts & Culture

Gets busy at lunchtime but lots of space to sit and eat (take your own food and sit at one of the tables to the side of the cafe to save a few pounds!) Make sure to catch the millennium clock just after the hour, every hour and also make your way up to the very top of the museum for great views over Edinburgh
