Bucks Bar - Edinburgh in Edinburgh, City of

Awesome place! Loved the music and the food! Place to try out!

Just been for some food with the family and definitely beat our expectations. Great food, great music and great service. Think the kids will be asking to return again soon 😅

Great food, atmosphere and service. You are doing yourself a disservice if you don't visit this place during your stay in Edinburgh. A shout out to Rory for welcoming in 4 weary travelers, making us feel at home and becoming our new best friend.

Beautiful environment, the food is also delicious. Their "Burgers" are only fried chicken based, highly recommended.

Great bar, music, staff and food. Milkshakes were unreal but really feeling! Nutella and Baileys recommended!

Perfect. This place is awesome. Very gluten-free friendly and great mixed drinks. Aaron and Lily were great.

Outstanding service and truly wonderful food!

Awesome food and service from the two brunettes, don’t know their names! Great time. :)

Went there last night (10th April) and the decor is really good inside. There’s a cracking picture of Blondie hanging up in the wall too. The staff were all really nice and the beer and chicken popcorn were excellent. I couldn’t believe how tasty the chicken was. The chicken burger selection is amazing!

Food was good, and the service was better. Reasonable prices too.

Rory was fantastic help, filled the vibe for the day, highly recommend

Service and food was grreeaaatt!! Especially our server Rory! Exceptional service he gave us! Love love the food so much, we ate here three times!

We should have got the thicker fries, but overall fantastic burgers, great staff and a great Edinburgh eatery!!

Tourist in Edinburgh with the family. Food was great, especially the chicken. The atmosphere was great. Service seemed friendly but not very attentive and the server changed in the middle of the visit even though the original server was still there the whole time, seemed odd but maybe that’s normal for there.

Absolutely love Bucks Bar. We went two times during our stay in Edinburgh, the service was friendly and the fried chicken was amazing as well as their shakes and floats.

Very good food, great drinks, and excellent service and atmosphere.

Great food, and amazing gluten free accommodations! Amazing service, and always asked if we had a drink in our hands. Made us Americans feel like we were right at home!

My first visit and I'd go back again. Visited with friends for a round of chicken burgers and a few beers while listening to rock music. Can't fault the food, service and ambience.

Rory greeted us at the door and made us feel really welcome. The food was fabulous and great concept... chicken burgers and wings done in many different styles! My partner and I both went for burgers which were huge and delicious. If u like spice...go .. if u don't...still go.. as the chicken was cooked perfectly. Also my lil beagle was welcome to sit under the table and he was also offered treats and water.

Absolutely fantastic! Excellent food! The service was brilliant! And the cocktails were incredible!

Frequent flyer here - awesome food, on the outlook is a little on the pricey side but the portions are great and the quality of food is brilliant. Would highly recommend 🥳 Ps the milkshakes are huge 😍

Outstanding wings. Chicken burgers looked amazing. Limited beer selection.

Great discovery in the heart of Edinburgh, brutal fried chicken with a thousand types of sauces and variations, spicy food lovers, your paradise, fried chicken, beer and rock and roll

This was a last-minute choice, but I'm glad we did. The food was different but enjoyable, and decor was interesting they do like a bit of Elvis in the Gents loo. 😆😆

Visited this place in Edinburgh. Loved the Nashville loaded fries and Buck Mac burger. Portion size was great. Shout out to Rory for his friendly customer service!

10/10 chicken burgers with so many different options to cater for different tastes. We had the salt and chilli burger and the King burger. Portion size is excellent. Service was also great, speedy and overall excellent experience. Would visit again!

Great experience. Fantastic food and service was great too. Highly recommend.

Amazing, some of the best grub we've had in a while!

Banging food, chicken and waffles with maple syrup. Always massive portions.

food was stunning. best wings we've ever had. friendly service and fast

We had Sasha as our server and she was brilliant it was my family’s first time at the restaurant and we will definitely be back.She has done so well definitely deserves a raise.

Best chicken I’ve ever tasted! Definitely suggest!!!

Rory provided great service and kept us hydrated and food was delicious

Fantastic American bar experience, went for lunch with kids. Amazing food, drinks. Flamin’ Chicken and waffles were great. Rory was a great waiter, worth the little walk and everybody ate up! Highly recommend.

Great place with amazing service and fabulous chicken. The food in general was great and good spicy. Also, they have nice cocktails. Much recommended!

Great service, friendly staff. Mediocre food.

Amazing vibes, lovely staff, great burger selection!!!🤩

Dropped in at last minute as new to Edinburgh, well worth the visit. Great food, friendly service and a nice atmosphere, what more do you need?

Amazing place, great staff. Food was amazing. Great decor and atmosphere.

Staff were very attentive, polite and helpful, food was brilliant, we got the cowboy burger, it was very tasty and plenty of chips and side of Mac n cheese, great place would definitely recommend and will be back XX

If you don't visit this place you are mad! ....absolutely AMAZING!!! Food ...atmosphere ....staff - all amazing!! I wish I lived in Edinburgh

I absolutely love this place. Been a few times now and it never disappoints. Great food, great staff, great music, and great atmosphere. Will keep coming back for sure 👍

The service was great as well as the music, food and drinks are ok but definitely worth the price, the burger was massive, so that's a positive for sure!

Very tasty fried chicken burgers.

Food is great! We tried chicken & waffle. Mine got Mac & Cheese on it and the other one is plain chicken & Waffle. Portion is great. The chicken is tender and juicy. The waffle is excellent! Definitely going back!

Food was absolutely incredible, service was great and the venue was really nice! The portion sizes were huge and it's honestly some of the best food I've ever had out

Such a fun, warm pub! It felt very American - which was a good vibe with the rock music and all. Rory was our server, bartender and comedian. 10/10. The food was delicious with a short wait given how busy it was for a Tuesday in January! Will be coming back!

It was awesome 🥰 We loved the service and we loved the food. 100% would recommend ❤️

Came here on a busy Friday night and the service and the food were incredible. Big thanks to Sasha for taking care of our table in such a nice and friendly manner, the rest of the staff were always very helpful and ensuring that everything was okay and well. Coming back again soon!

Bucks Bar is always a winner! Food was delicious and service was good, but slightly forgetful because of the evening rush. Sadly they had run out of brie for the Christmas special burger.

A good place, delicious food and good music

So good ! Had a takeaway bbq chicken burger , awesome !!!!

Amazing service Rory was very attentive and friendly and the food and drinks were fantastic also the atmosphere is spot on will definitely be coming back up when visiting Edinburgh 😁

Great atmosphere with live music. Food was amazing. Definitely going back when next in Edinburgh.

Great spot for some serious chicken… excellent margarita too 🤝🏻

Delicious food that was very good value for money. Lovely atmosphere and welcoming staff and a long cocktail, nothing not to like

Incredible service from Rory and his team!

The place is very well decorated, we liked the music. The chicken varieties were great, portions are big, and the service was best, Rory took great care of us!

Tasty chicken and great selection of hot sauces

V good food and drinks, excellent service, thoroughly recommend it

Busy bar, tasty hot chicken, good sauces, great service. We'll be back!

We discovered this restaurant and had two fried chicken burgers (to take away), it was really delicious and very generous. Although it's not easy to eat a hamburger with such a large piece of fried chicken protruding generously from the bun, at least you get what you pay for!! The welcome was warm and smiling, and the preparation was quite quick. A great discovery!!

I visited Bucks Bar whilst on a work trip to Edinburgh, it did not disappoint! I loved everything about it. The service was super friendly, the atmosphere relaxed and the food delicious. Anna was particularly brilliant. I'll definitely be back!

Wow! An amazing hidden gem just off the main road. We had the warmest of welcomes from the amazing team at Bucks and everything was explained to us. Very attentive! The space has loads of photo's of rockstars through the ages and the ambience is fantastic. The food is mostly chicken burgers and chips/fries with a few extra bits such as mac n cheese. I swear this was one of the best burgers i have ever had, it was MASSIVE!! The selection of hot sauces was perfect. I highly recommend this place for eating, socialising and getting 'bucked up'.

I was given a gift voucher as a present & decided to use it for a celebratory lunch. The twister cocktail with an ice lolly on top was fantastic. My husband enjoyed the Cold Town Brew just as much. The burgers we had were amazing. The Mac Buck was beautiful. Rory our server was so friendly and helpful which made such a difference to the whole experience. We would definitely recommend Bucks Bar

Amazing chicken burger with black pudding. Absolutely stuffed. Highly recommended.

Lovely food, great atmosphere and very nice service.

Food was nice, the service and atmosphere are lovely. The unfortunate issue that my lady had gastric issues after having dinner there that lasted for couple of days.

Large portions, delicious burgers, good drinks, friendly service, and affordable prices

Fantastic, one of the best meals iv ever had. Highly recommend

Bucks Bar was like a life saver to us! We were roaming around Edinburgh streets around 10:30-11:00 that evening looking for a place to have dinner when everywhere we go they hit us with “Sorry, kitchen is closed”!! That was so frustrating! Until we found Bucks Bar and we were warmly welcomed by Rory who was so happy to receive us! Both yummy food & the heartwarming atmosphere were everything we were striving for! Thank you so much!

Wanting to spend a chill evening, in front of a good sandwich, after careful research, everything fell on this pub. Super characteristic interior, very 80s and with a selection of music that satisfied my eardrums. Not to mention the food. They specialize in fried chicken, and my god, gentlemen, IT WAS HUGE. It was overflowing from the sandwich. Superb sauces and flavours, and sweet potatoes that are too good. Highly recommended for an evening with friends in front of lots of food and beautiful friends. Quick service and very friendly staff.

Sad to say the food is really bad, people were lovely tho.....

We recently celebrated a birthday at Bucks Bar with a group of 6, and it was a fantastic experience! The cosy diner atmosphere made it the perfect spot for a relaxed gathering, and the food was absolutely delicious. The menu offers a great selection, and everything we ordered was cooked to perfection. Service was attentive and friendly, adding to the overall enjoyment of the evening. The prices were also very reasonable, making it great value for the quality of food and service. Overall, Bucks Bar is a great choice for any occasion, especially birthdays!

Great atmosphere inside, American diner style booths, neon bar signs, classic rock playing at decent volume. The staff were excellent, they all seemed to love their jobs and were very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The food - oh man, the food! I had 4 wings with Buck's sauce which were delicious. Then I had the Ninja Burger, with sweet potato fries as recommended by our server, Anna - good call! So the Ninja Burger is this: a whole chicken breast with Tonkatsu glaze, togarashi spice, Japanese kewpie mayo, onions and lettuce in a bun. The chicken hangs over the edge of the bun. It must be a good 10-12 inches long! My daughter had The Big Smoke Mac Waffle which was 2 big pieces of buttermilk fried chicken in smokey BBQ glaze with applewood mac ‘n’ cheese on a freshly pressed buttered waffle. She didn't manage to finish hers, but Anna made sure to give us a box to take the remainder away in. We had a milkshake each to go with our meal. They should warn you about the size of these things! All in all, I cannot recommend Buck's Bar highly enough.

Delicious wings lovely cocktails fantastic friendly staff great rock atmosphere

We loved it. Delicious food, delicious cocktails and lovely staff.

Easily the best chicken burger I’ve ever had. Super delicious with a massive piece of chicken, and the fries? Absolutely amazing! The service is incredible. Super friendly staff.

Outstanding food and service. We a party of 10 arrived without booking on a sat afternoon. Very friendly young lady organised some tables for us within minutes. Portion sizes great definitely if you have an appetite. Food served in timely fashion. Good selection of drinks

Chelsea and Rory were fantastic. Amazing service the entire time and the food and drinks were delivered very quickly. Highly recommend this location

I am normally not the biggest chicken food fan but this was just delicious. Special mention to the chicken wings that were tender and tasty. Portions are big, burger feeds an adult with no issue. Place is very American style. Service was fast and efficient.

The waitress was very friendly his name was rory and he gives exelent advice what you should try out.

Lovely place to spend with family and friends cocktails are amazing as well as the food x staff are always friendly and very helpful

Visited Bucks Bar in Grindlay Street, Edinburgh and had a great time. Food and service was great. Thanks to Bex for looking after us.

We had a great time in Bucks Bar, the food was great. There was a good vibe about the bar which complimented the food and great service from Bex.

Sasha was such a nice server and had great earrings. Very American American style bar. Had ranch.

Really good chicken! Great vibe! Sasha was amazing and had good recommendations. Prices are very reasonable for what you get.

Good gluten free (though not celiac-friendly) fried chicken, decent creamy slaw. Big portions—definitely getting your money’s worth! Sasha was a super friendly and attentive waitress.

Great music, amazing food (portion sizes are huge, so you can save it for the next day). Sasha was the best!

Lovely evening- Sasha our server was marvellous.

Lovely Sasha served us and there are heaters above the outside tables! If it’s super cold they give you blankets :D. Super quick service and delicious food. Can’t go wrong with Bucks (especially if you’re seeing a show at the Lyceum)

RORY was my friend and i’s sever, he was lovley and friendly and welcoming, very quick service and an absolute fabulous atmosphere, staff were all very find and very helpful, food was absolutely amazing, reasonably priced and so tasty and well made, music was very very good which definitely added to my experience, thanks to rory and the staff, definitely will be back

Had a great evening at Bucks Bar. Sasha gave 10/10 service. Would highly recommend!

The food was good, we had a late night snack which was perfect.

Such a great place! The decoration is really cool, the service is amazing they’re so nice, and the food is delicious. I ordered the mac n cheese chicken waffle and I wish I could have finished all because it tastes great. Thank you!

My son had waffles mac & cheese & chicken , my other son had the buck all chicken burger & fries as he likes everything plain they both loved it. The portion sizes are huge! I had the hot honey ranch chicken burger & my partner had the hot cock burger they were all delicious 😋. The service was excellent. Staff so friendly & welcoming. Highly recommend this place for burger they were amazing! Massive chicken fillets amazing flavour. Decor lovely & music so good cannot fault this place at all hence the all round 5 stars! My sons also had a milkshake each which they said were brilliant!

Rory from Bucks Bar is always the person that serves us when we visit, he is always so happy and brings such great energy to the place. Very welcoming, very friendly and an all round top guy! Great food and milkshakes too! 10/10 all round from me.

Food was incredible, vibes were immaculate, wings fell off the bone and Rory’s service was incredible. So friendly and attentive

I’ve now visited all three Bucks locations and this was my favourite. Chelsea who served us was really attentive and gave helpful recommendations, and the food was great. The portions are comically big here, but if you go hungry they hit the spot. The sauces are really exceptional—always fun to try new ones. Only annoying thing was my coke was 90% ice—if I’d known that’s how it was served I would have requested less ice.

Very chuffed with my first experience at bucks. Food was really good, portions were big enough. Really liked the chicken and waffles, never had before. Our server Rory was full of chat and good patter. Defnintley coming back.
