Auld Hundred in Edinburgh, City of

Ralph was a great waiter! Very helpful and knowledgeable about the menu. The haggis and tatties absolutely to be recommended.

Our hotel staff recommended this restaurant for dinner. The first floor is a pub with a restaurant on the second floor. The overall ambiance was cozy, authentic and comfortable. The staff were all friendly and attentive. I had the fish and chips - fried beautifully and crispy and a huge piece of fish! My husband had the special - Cumberland sausage with mash and red onion gravy - decadently rich and delicious! The chocolate coconut cheesecake was a light and delicious dessert. We enjoyed our experience so much that we came back again the next night! We highly recommend!!

Popped in here for some lunch before heading home after a great couple of days in Edinburgh. Great selection of food on the menu. Staff very helpful and friendly. Wee warning for those who have problems climbing stairs - to get to the restaurant area you need to climb a narrow spiral staircase so may not suit everyone. We each had a different main course, fish and chips, steak pie and haggis neeps and tatties - all piping hot and tasted great. Desserts were ice creams and the apple crumble, all demolished! Got very busy within an hour of opening so might be advisable to book? Would absolutely eat here again when back in Edinburgh!

Gets busy so book for lunch or dinner Food quality but they did forget one soup Overall , good service and good food at reasonable prices

Excellent!! Thank you Anna for fitting us in on a busy Saturday night and for coming down to the bar to find us when the table was ready - excellent haggis and service - despite it being busy we were not rushed. Have kept your card for next time we come - thank you so much - worth it!

Beautiful food, good prices on the food, The beer is expensive in my opinion

If your looking for a quick pint or two stop in. The food is standard pub food. Steak pie was okay, but not a true meat pie. Busy on a Saturday. Make a reservation. Cool atmospger downstairs in the pub.

Awesome pub with really nice food ! The service is friendly and really fast. When we come back, we will for sure go back!

We were very impressed by this pub. We felt right at home here and it was very comfortably furnished. The food was fantastic and the waiters were extremely friendly! We would love to come back.

Gets really busy but nice food and cocktails, good atmosphere. Lovely building.

Wow great atmosphere, service and food. Also prices are fair enough. I recommend you to try haggis there.

This restaurant was amazing! Katrina was our server and she was a blast! I got the fish N chips and a flight of whiskey. It was all fantastic and Katrina made it even more enjoyable by cracking us up! October 2024

Can't ask for better Scottish food, it's too delicious!!

The steak pie was fabolous. A special thanks to Amelie who chased us on the road to give us the phone forgotten at the table.

We enjoyed our visit, the food, and the service. If you're in the area, it is worth stopping in for a bite.

What an awful place. Arrived for a drink with some friends on a weekend away f lot s a 60 birthday. Were aloud one drinks, to be told we could not have another one……. Pathetic! Now sitting in another pub just down the road having a lovely time. Like I said before pathetic!! Do not bother going!!!

Terrible pub, bad service, rude staff . Ruined our visit to Edinburgh. So unfriendly and unhelpful

Awful place the lady was rude and inappropriate and bar staff appalling

Auld Hundred Restaurant in Edinburgh is a hidden gem that truly deserves recognition. From the moment you step inside, the warm and inviting atmosphere sets the tone for a fantastic dining experience. The food is outstanding, with a menu that delights the palate. I was particularly impressed by the Channa Masala; while it might not be the traditional Indian take, it offered a delightful twist that was both flavorful and satisfying. The soup of the day was equally impressive, showcasing fresh ingredients and a depth of flavor that left me wanting more. Auld Hundred also boasts an excellent selection of beers, perfect for pairing with your meal. The highlight for many, though, is the extensive collection of Scotch whiskies. Whether you're a connoisseur or a casual drinker, you're sure to find something that suits your taste. What truly sets this restaurant apart is the exceptional service. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about ensuring a memorable dining experience. Their recommendations are spot on, adding a personal touch that enhances the overall visit. Reservations are highly recommended, as this place can get busy, and it’s easy to see why. Auld Hundred is a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy great food, amazing drinks, and top-notch service in the heart of Edinburgh. I can’t wait to return!

Got to sing a couple songs during open mic nite. Dream come tru!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️🍻🎶

Very good menu! All homemade food, extremely tasty, both all the dishes as well as deserts. Must visit if you’re around! Prices also very good! Would definitely come back!!!!

Always a favorite when in Rose Street . Nice and busy the Sunday night I was in. Open mike night

Great pub, great service and excellent food. Price/performance ratio is very reasonable. We had the Coleslaw and Haggis Balls as starters. The haggis in the fried balls was very creamy and very nicely seasoned. A slight spiciness on the finish. Plus a great sauce. Fantastic. The main course was fish & chips (you can add the vinegar yourself). Super. And we had the steak pie. The meat was very tender and the sauce was strong. Plus potatoes or chips. A wonderful dish. A visit here is highly recommended. We were lucky to get a table, it may be advisable to make a reservation in advance.

What a fantastic find! We were shown to a table and informed of the 'specials board' as well as the menu. We decided to try the local delicacy of haggis neeps. The food was beautifully presented and tasted wonderful. The staff were professional, polite and spent time to explain about the mamy whiskeys available and the origins. Would definitely recommend.

Decent wee pub. Singer/musician was good.

Seems very popular. We had to wait for a free table. It was a good opportunity to taste different draught beers !

Great pub on popular Rose Street. Stopped in for a flight after striking out at a previous pub. Had multiple flight options and took the bartender's recommendation of their "flight of the month". There was a lively crowd there for live music at 9 PM. It was a great place to hang out, and there was friendly chit-chat at the bar in between songs.

We had Sunday lunch beautiful and lunch today its a wonderful place for a meal and a drink

Kleine kaart met prima voedsel. Vlotte bediening met een creatief twistje. Moesten even wachten in het café beneden. Daar is een lekkere whisky proeverij te bestellen

Friendly Staff, great food and good vibes

Very nice environment. The pub has live music and decent food at a reasonable price. We were very thankful to be served by Alex who assessed us for gluten free options. There are plenty available plus the possibility to change bun bread in burgers.

Beautiful pub, delicious food, reasonable prices and live music in the evenings. Immediately again.

Ewan was great, she was so friendly, efficient and very helpful. We had scampi and beef pie and the food was up to expectations.

A great cosy pub for drinks and food. Barman was super helpful and our waitress was engaging. Food was superb, a real must visit!

A great place to eat. 3 of us are visiting Edinburgh, Found Auld Hundred. Service from Alex and Ralph was top notch, enjoyed Haggis Bonbons so much we ordered another plate. Roast Beef dinner was slow roasted and served in a Yorkshire pudding plate ! WE will go back for another meal.

Wonderful lunch of fish/chips @ this century old restaurant. Of course, fish was fried perfectly. Portions r humongous. Waitress/owner were friendly, informative. Good value, great food!

An amazing place to eat. The food was super tasty and the staff were welcoming and friendly. The atmosphere was perfect for our family meal before our youngest starts university. Auld Hundred will definitely be a regular place for us to visit in the years to come.

Whoever was on aux was playing bangers only. Food also bangin

Friendly and friendly staff, excellent beer and food, welcoming and characteristic environment

I booked this place as I wanted a steak pie for my birthday. On the internet I found a review about this place and decided to book it. I went with my partner and we both had a great experience, make sure you book a table as it was full on a Tuesday. We ordered the haggis bonbon as starter and let me tell you they are amazing, they come with a whisky sauce that is just delicious. I ordered the steak pie which I was very pleased with, and my partner ordered a burger that was mouth watering, big, and tasty (but I did not take a picture, unfortunately). The staff are also very attentive. It is a place to come back to, and we will bring friends and family since it was overall a pleasant experience. Would recommend!!

Great Scottish food Should have booked a table, really long wait for a table

I only had a pint so didn't give high on food I like the place other than that.

If you pass through Edinburgh don't hesitate to stop by this pub, the atmosphere is very good. (Live music some evenings) As for the meal, we ordered a Brekkie burger, a steak pie, onion rings and a Guinness for a bill of 42.25 pounds. The dishes are copious and of very good quality (I recommend the aforementioned burger, it is excellent). On the drinks side you have a significant number of beer and whiskey. The service is excellent, thanks to Katrina for her welcome and good humor.

The pub is very well located and has decent vegetarian food. There is also a vegan selection, but we tried the vegetarian Haggis, which is great, as well as the homemade Mac'n'Cheese, which are also good but surprisingly come with fries. The staff is very friendly. Though, it seemed the place was quite busy and there is only one restroom for everybody.

Great atmosphere, nice staff, excelent food and service.

Came here for dinner. Service was friendly and the food came out relatively quickly, though the meal itself was so-so. Overall we had a nice experience, but not among our favourite meals that we had in Edinburgh.

Very interesting old restaurant. Good food and great homemade cheesecake.

Friendly staff good food. Very busy for a small place. Had to wait for a seat but made welcome so booked for following night.

Lovely late lunch between Fringe shows!

Very interesting pub in the heart of Edinburgh. Stopped there after a pint and the waiter told us there was a 20 minute wait so we stayed for a pint downstairs until they came over to call us. Food is great, we got a steak pie and a vegetarian haggies dish, both delicious.

Amazing restaurant, food, service all 5 ☆ plus ,

Great food, nice drinks and an extremely nice staff that managed to find a place for us even during a busy afternoon.

Very helpful staff, Katrina explained the different kinds if Whiskeys and what might suite my taste the best.

The place was really busy at lunch time but we managed to get a table for 2. The food and drinks came quickly considering how busy it was. We were served by a very friendly girl called Hannah. Soup was lovely as was fish and chips and steak pie. Lemon and lime cheesecake was amazing and great value for money. Will definately go back.

Pub downstairs, restaurant on first floor. Cozy atmosphere, normal Scottish menu. Attentive and helpful staff.

We have been here several times before and we have been craving Haggis since 2020 when Covid made us unable to travel. But now (2022) we have enjoyed a perfect Haggis and the whiskey sauce was wonderful. Another good Ale was perfect. Now in 2024 we are here again and absolutely the best Haggis in Scotland and we have eaten it in many different places and locations.

Everything was delicious and they treated us very well.

We had dinner there, good food. The staff is nice. But the best part was the open mic night for music; super fun!!!

Age group 60 silly barmaid who claimed to be manager in the middle of festival refused us a drink sorry there is a difference between drunk and having fun

Nice meal. Steak pie was delicious

We stopped in for dinner. We had reservations but not sure if you need them - the dining area is small and comfy so I would recommend it. The soup of the day was Potato Leek which was smooth and creamy. The Haggis BonBons are like an umami flavor explosion that I definitely recommend. The fish and chips is a healthy portion - super hot and crispy. The Big Brekkie Burger and Better Brie-Lieve It Burgers were delicious. Our cocktails (Rusty Nail, Godfather, Auld Fashioned, and Mezcal Mule) were are perfect. The warm and moist sticky toffee pudding is an amazing way to end the meal... If you have room!

Fantastic place with high class food and service. Best fish and chips ever and vegetarian haggis (!). Do not miss this place if you are in Edinburgh.

If you want traditional Scottish dishes this is a great place to go. Great value givens its location so close to the Princes St. My party informed me that they serve such a tasty haggis dish that anyone who is interested in trying it should come here. Not enough places put Brie in a burger!

A wonderful Scottish pub. The beer selection is not large, but well curated. There is a restaurant, but I cannot comment on that because I didn't try. The menu looks typical for the area and priced correctly. They have AC for those warm Scottish days(mid sixties fahrenheit). I've been there twice so far this trip. Try the Barney Red Eye ale.

very good service and very pleasant people, good food and a good place.

I had excellent Barney's ale some super whisky and the best haggis dinner during my stay in Edinburgh. Staff are friendly and helpful 🙂

Enjoyed dinner very much, was recommended by a local. Great whiskey selection, excellent good and service. Burger selection looked interesting, but opted for meat pie (not really a pie), which was delicious; fish and chips were excellent as well- light, flakey haddock. Prices were very reasonable. With so many places from which to choose in new town, this one should definitely be on your list.

Me and my partner came for a Sunday roast. We thought the atmosphere was nice and the service was lovely but we’re truly disappointed by the roast dinners. The vegetables and potatoes all appeared to be from frozen and for the price, we were both unimpressed. Such a lovely restaurant but a shame that the £18 beef roast was a plate of frozen carrots, green beans and dry potatoes.

Good food great service value for money very helpful

Came across the delightful Auld Hundred while on a weekend trip to Edinburgh. After reading the menu outside, we decided to head on in for some food. I must say we made a great choice. The restaurant was well decorated, good background music playing and the staff were lovely and friendly and most importantly the food was delicious. I had the Balmoral Chicken, and my wife had the Haggis and Tatties, followed by warm chocolate cake. We were looked after on the day by Katrina and compliments to Chef Hamish.

I had the Sunday roast, veggies weren't fresh and tasted like they were frozen not too long ago. Everything was in a giant flat Yorkshire pudding which took away from the fluffiness of the pastry. The service was ok and I liked the atmosphere. For me, what was a let down was the food, unfortunately. I feel a bit sad as it was my last day before I left Scotland and I wanted one good last Sunday roast.

Stopped in for dinner, food is upstairs, pub is down. Had a very good burger and my wife had the red chicken curry which she liked a lot. Service was prompt and friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy. It was busy the entire time we were there and quite a few people were turned away due to reservations and limited space. A good place!

Amazing food, amazing service and great setting! Loved it! Highly recommend 😍

The batter is relatively firm and a little heavy, but very tasty. The chips are probably my best.

Very cosy place, exceptionally lovely staff, and really solid food! There's somewhat limited dining space so I definitely recommend booking upfront; initially I couldn't book a table for 5 on the website, then called and they managed to find a slot to host us - and this welcoming atmosphere continued throughout the evening!

Fabulous experience at the Auld Hundred Edinburgh. Very quickly seated. Excellent service from all involved very friendly. Best fish and chips ever. Batter was lovely and crispy.

Good meal. I had a roast beef Sunday roast. I was hoping for thicker slices. Otherwise, food was quite good and the service was excellent!

Good small menu with regional dishes, everything tasted very good and there weren't long waiting times.

Very friendly staff and good food

A really nice pub. We are really happy to have stopped there. The service was super fast and friendly. The food and drinks were very tasty. We would eat there again in a heartbeat.

Lovely pub in the heart of Edinburgh. Tasty beers!

Wonderful place in the middle of Edinburgh. Good selection of food and the Haggis is really good. Really good burger menu as well. The drinks menu is also really good with a lot of whiskey and other drinks. Several non alcoholic beer's as well. Friendly staff and quiet atmosphere! It can be full quite often tho as 3 parties had to turn around while we ate.

Amazing food! And such nice waiters. They even have gluten free options, and very good information about everything 😁

Staff were friendly and helpful, food was fantastic. If you're visiting Edinburgh, do yourself a favour. Try the Haggis Bonbons - can't visit Scotland without having haggis - delightful. Steak pie was awesome, fish and chips were lovely. Large serves.

Good beer, food, music and service.

The staff was extremely friendly! The food was supppppeerrrr tasty, delicious, and high quality. I had the cajun chicken and I was very very suprised at how tasty the FRIES were! and ofcourse, the chicken was cooked perfectly.

This is a great little pub that is deceptive from the outside. With a traditional bar downstairs and a cosy restaurant upstairs; it was a great overall experience. I came here to try something new and away from the usual chain restaurants. The food was really good quality and this is a great place to start if you're wanting to try Haggis. I'd highly recommend this place!

Lovely place great atmosphere, great service, great food and very reasonably priced

An absolute gem. Highly recommend this place, the food and staff are first class. I recommend that you book first as very popular. Looking forward to coming back soon as there was so many dishes I wanted to try.

Fish & chips are very good. I have heard that English foods were not good before, but I think we should change this perception.

Good atmosphere and helpful staff. We had fish and chips which was good and abundant. A lot of people had to leave because there wasn't any place. A lot of locals eating which is always a good sign

Delicious meal! I popped over after traveling for 24 hours and it was the hearty meal I needed. The sticky toffee pudding was so flavorful! Katrina was lovely and made spot-on recommendations.

Sin duda el mejor sitio donde comimos en Edimburgo, calidad precio de 10, el haggis a pesar de no llamarnos muchos nos encanto y los postres caseros estan buenisimos. Nos gusto tanto que repetimos al dia siguiente. Muy recomendado.

We had a wonderful experience here, for those with disabilities please note the restaurant is up a spiral staircase. My husband has two bad knees and struggled to get up the stairs. The staff were very friendly and totally accommodating. We did not have long for lunch because we had a train to catch at Waverley train station and they did everything they could to speed up the process. Atmosphere is very nice, music was a little too loud for our taste, but we are in our mid 60s! The food was outstanding, my husband said it was the best Fish and Chips he has ever eaten, and he has eaten a lot! My steak and ale pie was delicious, hot with lots of lovely vegetables. Highly recommended.

Delicious food, excellent whiskey, and very good service.

Wow what can I say !!! Absolutely amazingly friendly staff. Was a bit undecided on the lovely menu but decided to go with the haggis as we were visiting Edinburgh for the first time. Was told I would be pleasantly surprised. Tbh it surprised my expectations. It was AMAZING. I felt it only right to complement the staff as it was truly refreshing to go into a restaurant and be greeted by every single member of staff with exceptional service. The dining area was very busy to. Not one negative comment. Cannot recommend enough.

I heard that haggis is a famous Scottish food, so I tried it and it was delicious! The sauce is delicious, but it has such a unique taste that I don't know which sauce to compare it to. Today's soup was good, and the cheesecake I had for dessert was served with ice cream, and it wasn't the cheesecake I was used to, but it was different and delicious :D And all the staff are incredibly friendly!!!

Not as fantastic as hoped, the daily specials dish (Thai curry) was not really tasty. The haggis seemed good though. Some of the staff were very helpful and professional, but the person in charge was a little more "closed". Book if you really want to go there

I agree with Francesco Caruso's review as there were 7 of us but it was clearly said that a table for 4 and a table for 3 was fine, but what really bothered us was that they didn't spend the slightest effort to find a solution, dismissing us with enough.

Not recommended for families. We have 3 kids and at 2 p.m. the lady welcomed us saying that we had to wait 45 minutes while in reality there were empty tables and dismissed us like that. Bad courtesy
