Brunton Hall Bistro in East Lothian

V good food & excellent service,always manage to get a table.

Staff were helpful and friendly. Service was very good. Food very good. Bistro was nice clean and good atmosphere.

The food was good lovely home made soup and sandwiches which was on the Menu in a combo with coffee and fruit scones to fallow every thing piping hot . Great service and very attentive.

First visit and highly delighted with service and lovely food

Just all-around good service and a lovely experience.

Coffee ☕ and scones were very nice.

Food delicious and very reasonable. Girls where lovely and very efficient. We'll be back.

I recently used the Bistro for catering for my father's funeral tea. I couldn't fault the food, service or communication prior to the event. I would thoroughly recommend using the Bistro.

5 stars for the food and service. Haddock and chips lovely, chicken burger top notch. The chicken was unadulterated, didn't come covered in a million and one spices or topped with some chilli relish rubbish, it was great, just what I wanted. Nice piece of chicken, mayonnaise, salad and gerkins. The menu said fries and we were expecting the usual skinny things you tend to get when it says that but what we received was really good chips. Nice pot of tea, very friendly and helpful service. Looking forward to returning soon.

We meet here every week. Great choice of food. Superb staff. Good atmosphere.

Great food good service very good staff

We popped in for a flat white and mocha. We like our coffees but were very disappointed in these. They were both very weak, almost just like hot frothy milk. We hit it at a busy time, so service was a bit slow.

Hot chocolate and bacon roll get two thumbs up from this customer! A great community institution with a friendly vibe.

Excellent customer service in a very pleasant restaurant. Today was the second time I’ve visited and both times the staff bent over backwards, to accommodate me, I’m lactose intolerant and the food has been delicious and served on lovely crockery.

The brunt of the eternal trophy cabinet

First time here and will be back. Food good, we both had lasagne which was nice and fresh and very tasty. Salad was nice too, would love more and dressed! Was very tasty. Service was good, staff very pleasant.

Fantastic food and service. Would highly recommend

Good food, nothing fancy but decent portions and good service.

Great place to.meet with friends, love coffee and yesterday a new scone recipie, courgette and Stilton. Delicious . Enjoy

Dinner prior to an evening show with my mum. We both thoroughly enjoyed the fresh ingredients and large choice. The staff were friendly and helpful. Lovely wines, soft drinks and coffees. Will definitely eat there again.

An excellent local cafe sitting at the heart of the Brunton Hall - the food is plain, simple and well prepared, and the cakes are wonderful! All seemed by relaxed, friendly staff, so what's not to like?

Waited 10 minutes, received absolutely no service, first visit to Musselburgh and the bistro and all we got was a no show, very disappointed!

Our meal was really good and filling i would recommend it to anyone

A tad pricey. Staff were lovely and efficient.

Both staff and food first class.

What a hidden gem. We booked a table prior to going to a show however Bistro is open throughout the day. Superb service from friendly approachable staff who catered for everything we asked for. The food was excellent and the value for money compared to other venues in the area was exceptional. Well worth a visit.

Nice bistro in pleasant surroundings A good option before a show

Lovely setting and friendly staff, very nice

My husband and I stopped at the bistro last Thursday. The food, drinks and service were excellent. In my view it was very competitively price. Staff were very efficient and welcoming.

We had afternoon tea there it was lovely staff were nice and helpful 😀

Lovely food and very nice staff.

Nice little bistro very friendly staff Clean and efficient but thought it was a bit more expensive that other local establishments

Three of us were attending a concert at the Brunton theatre so decided to book a table in the Brunton Hall Bistro because of the ease of then going to the concert. We were very pleased we had done so. The menu isn't large but enough variety to satisfy us including one vegetarian. All the food we had was well cooked and presented and very enjoyable. The cost was very very reasonable including their wine. Not a large selection of beers was probably the only slight down side. Overall we enjoyed our meals, will be back and would recommend.

Fabulous atmosphere, staff extremely attentive and friendly.The food was lovely, A great start to a fabulous night. Highly recommended

Good food and very friendly staff.

First class. Breakfast was lovely.

Couldn't get in all booked ....no seats available ....
