Cafe Royal is a beloved bar, known as one of the oldest oyster bars in Scotland, located up a hidden path off Princes Street. It offers a unique combination of coziness and opulence, making it a memorable experience. The restaurant is praised for its excellent food, particularly their cured salmon sampler and fresh oysters. It is also noted for its fine service and great building decor. However, it is advised to be aware of the seafood aroma if not a fan of fish or seafood. Cafe Royal can be a bit pricey, but is considered worth it as an occasional treat for its high-quality cooking. It can get busy on Friday nights, so it's recommended to arrive early to ensure a wider selection of dishes.
