Hard Rock Café

Some people travel round the world visiting the various branches of the Hard Rock Café empire and have the badges to prove it. But rather than make your way to Berlin, via Bahrain and Bejing, you can just visit this branch, raid the gift shop and pretend you've got the time and the money for such pointless pursuits. Visit here for American food with American–sized helpings, all served with a 'have a nice day' attitude. There can be a fight for tables, and service isn't the quickest in town, but you can while away the time checking out the music memorabilia. At this branch they have outfits from some of the most coiffured rock blondes around – Madonna, Rod Stewart, Stevie Nicks and the king of pomade himself – Billy Idol. <i><b><a href='http://www.itchycity.co.uk/shop/' target='_blank'>Click here to buy Itchy Edinburgh, the UK's best–selling pocket–sized guide to what's on in Edinburgh, including restaurants, clubs, bars, hotels and shopping. </a></b></i>
