A swish new Edinburgh restaurant with spectacular views of the Water of Leith has opened on the site of former public toilets.
The Tollhouse, ran by the Dine team who already have two Edinburgh venues, have recently opened their third and it may be one of the most aesthetically pleasing dining experiences the capital has to offer.
The eatery, located in Canonmills, has been converted from a derelict public toilets building into a fine dining experience with views of the Water of Leith and even has its own outdoor smokehouse.
