Edinburgh and Glasgow's favourite food and drink venues revealed

This year's winners have been announced in The Skinny Food and Drink Survey

Scotland's favourite cafes, bars and restaurants have been named in this month's edition of The Skinny, following the magazine’s annual readers’ food and drink survey.

This year's survey – the fifth since its inception in 2011 – saw thousands of votes cast online for venues big and small, with the readers of The Skinny's sister edition in the Northwest of England also polled on their favourite food venues.

The results of The Skinny Food and Drink Survey can be found in the January issue of The Skinny, as well as on The Skinny's website at theskinny.co.uk/food.
