Tuvimos un hermoso desayuno de cumpleaños aquí en Butternut Squash. La deliciosa tostada y tortilla francesa fue increíble. ¡Entonces me sorprendió con una galleta de pan corto rellena de fresa para mi cumpleaños! ¡Mujeres tan dulces! Gracias 🫶🏼

Decente café sin lujos a 5 minutos a pie de la playa. No sé cómo hemos echado de menos esta joya durante tanto tiempo. Excelente relación calidad-precio desayuno con un servicio amable. Vale la pena caminar desde la playa. Buena selección de pasteles también.

Lovely little cafe on a quiet side street in Portobello. Clearly a busy local favourite serving breakfast and lunch. Surprise on the menu: full vegetarian Scottish breakfast. I had the eggs benedict, which was very good. My husband had a bacon bun: delicious. My niece had the full veggie Scottish brekky: very good. Service was pleasant and efficient.

After living in Portobello for a number of months, I'd say this is my favourite restaurant here for brunch or lunch. No airs and graces, so if that's what you want look elsewhere. It's usually packed full - locals know how good the food is and what good value. It is simple stuff, but so fresh and tasty and helpings always generous. The bacon rolls are fabulous, and so are the sandwiches. And the ladies who work here are just lovely.

The cafe was absolutely rammed (always a good sign I think) but we were able to get a table outside in the unexpectedly warm February sunshine, and didn’t have long to wait for our bacon and egg rolls and pot of tea. Excellent quality, good value and friendly service, not surprised it’s popular!

We often visit Portobello and have tried a few cafes in the area. This one was on our list to try so we did. My partner and I were seated at a table that needed cleared as we wanted a window seat. The staff member cleaned it but was a little slapdash about it and wiped some of the debris onto my knees. The service was a bit slow but overall the food was ok. Slightly pricey for what it was but ok. Very handy for both the high street and the beach.

Food was excellent and portions very generous. 4 of us had the Caesar salads - wow, the best we have ever had! - and huge! Other two friends were equally delighted with their dishes - Mac & Cheese and Chicken Wraps. We will definitely be back and will thoroughly recommend!

Second time we have been to this great cafe. Stopped in for some lunch on our way home from St. Andrews. Staff here are so down to Earth and friendly. Food is quick to arrive at the table. I had the full breakfast honestly could not finish all that was on the plate it was huge and tasty. My husband had the cheeseburger which he demolished so must have been good. What makes this place is the friendliness of the people that work there. Really close to the portobello beach also. We recommend!

We had an excellent breakfast here on Thursday (food, service and price for the food was 5 stars). However on receiving the bill I noticed that I was charged 75 pence for a glass of hot water!! When queried the waiter said this was due to the cost of cleaning the glass and heating the water. By the way the same glass of water if cold would be free.There was no indication when asking for the water that such a charge would be levied and such a charge was not listed on any menu hence the lack of transparencyToday I raised this issue of the charge with the new owner and whilst I acknowledged that a nominal cost might be involved (keeping the urn hot) I felt that 75 pence was extortionate.She advised me that as a new owner she was in the process of reviewing all the prices.Hardly a satisfactory outcome.

Nos detuvimos un sábado a última hora de la mañana para un desayuno tardío. El café estaba bien ubicado (entre la calle principal y la playa), acogedor, espacioso y cómodo, y nos dieron una hermosa mesa junto a la ventana. El menú era extenso, y el desayuno de 11 artículos enumerados (además de té y tostadas) tenía una excelente relación calidad-precio (a los 6. 95, solo en efectivo). Sin embargo, el servicio desde ese punto fue muy lento: tuvimos que esperar 10 minutos para que alguien tomara nuestro pedido, y otros 30 minutos dolorosos para nuestra comida (sin disculpas ni notificación de la larga demora). En el lado positivo, nos dieron una recarga gratuita de nuestras tazas de café con escurrimiento largo justo antes de que llegara la comida. Cuando lo hizo, conté 10 artículos (supongo que un segundo pastel de papa contó como el décimo), con los hongos que faltaban tanto en mi desayuno, como (más importante) en el desayuno vegetariano de mi pareja. Y la tostada estaba fría como la piedra. Sorprendentemente, el chico sentado a nuestro lado recibió su comida completa con hongos, y con una espera mucho más corta. Sin embargo, la comida era buena, especialmente los haggis y los huevos fritos. Si se puede mejorar el servicio, sin duda volveremos ya que la comida era muy buena relación calidad-precio, sabrosa y el ambiente muy cómodo y relajado.

He answered a stern 'No. We cant blend food when we are busy.' This service is absolutely discusting in todays society. Have never came across this before in an eating establishment.

It was an amazing experience, we were made to feel very special. Keith and Kay, the wonderful chefs in the kitchen and Barney the dog were very welcoming to us and all our guests. We asked for our own choices of starters mains and desserts. Kay helped us work out what to have on the menu, Prosecco to start, three courses plus cheese boards. The food was world class, beautifully cooked and presented with style and delivered with warm humour and calm efficiency. The steaks were cooked perfectly and everyone was speaking about the great food. Guests from London were gobsmacked at the quality of the cooking and several people were mentioning a return visit! There were many very clean plates for each course, I was nearly defeated by size of the delicious Raspberry Pavlova but managed to make it disappear somehow! Thank you so much you wonderful pair !!

Visited for the first time on Saturday. We were lucky to get a table, it was so busy and had a real buzz about it. We went for the full breakfast, link sausage, bacon, beans, black pudding, haggis, fried egg, potato scone, fried bread, mushrooms, fresh tomato and potato face (this let the breakfast down as everything else was great and tasty, especially the haggis). Toast and tea or coffee, with free refills, are also included for £6.95 per head. This was great, the coffee good and came with hot milk on the side without asking, which is a big plus for me. Looking around the food others were having good great too. . The service is efficient and friendly even although they were so busy. We will definitely be back.

Went for breakfast mid week and the food was great. Staff were great. And coffee was quite acceptable. Just what we needed after a night out.

We visited Edinburgh last week, and one day we ended up in Portobello with my husband. We were roaming on the streets when we bumped into this nice little restaurant. I only wanted to drink a coffee, but when I read the menu, I immediately opted for the 11-item breakfast plate with refill coffe or tee. And what a good decision it proved to be!:) The food was abundant, fresh, and delicious. I am a huge fan of the English and Scottish breakfast, and this was one of the bests that I've had in my life. And for a very reasonable price, I have to add.

Este café siempre está ocupado, el servicio es bueno y el personal es atento y atento. El menú es bueno y ofrece algo para todos. Hay asientos dentro y si el clima lo permite o su valiente también hay asientos fuera. Hoy tuve su sopa de Tattie & Leek. Pedí que lo sirvieran caliente y ciertamente lo fue. Muy agradable tener comida servida como está ordenada. Scott tenía el inglés completo y era una gran porción recién hecha. La comida es casera y las sopas que venden son excelentes. ¿Recomendaría y volvería, la respuesta es Sí y Sí? El último punto que lo sella para mí es que es un café amigable para perros.

Sábado fuera y tenía un encantador desayuno vegetariano todo el día con excelentes haggis vegetariano. Perfecto para los madrugadores en un descanso.

Fui su última noche con amigos por primera vez. Nos quedamos impresionados por la comida y el ambiente Excelente entrantes incluyendo sopa, un cóctel de gambas en tomar diferentes y una casa maravillosa hizo paté. Me encantó la carnes y abadejo ahumado que eran muy muy sabroso y caliente. Precioso y limpio y, a pesar de estar muy ocupado tuvimos nuestra comida que se sirve en el momento oportuno.

Au détour d'une rue près de la plage vous tomberez sur ce charmant restaurant qui propose des brunchs de très bonne qualité et surtout qui vous permettra d'avoir une très bonne vision de la gastronomie d'Ecosse !

We had a delicious brunch at this little place. The service was friendly and warm and the food was excellent in both quality and cost.

My grandma lives in portobello so she introduced us to this cafe! I’d say now I go at least once every 2 weeks. Food is always nice, very reasonably priced and clean! Surprised to read the bad reviews on this cafe although there is not many at all - can’t please some people! Normally go for lunch and its a young girl with dark hair who serves us and she couldn’t be any more friendly! Would highly recommend this place!

Les plats sont a environ 8-10 livres, prix vraiment corrects mais les portions sont vraiment faible, compter pour un steak frite une poignée de 15 frites surgelées.

Visitamos Portobello para nuestras vacaciones de verano por segundo año consecutivo. Entre el 8 de nosotros comimos en Butternut Squash varias veces en la semana para el desayuno y el almuerzo. Cada comida era deliciosa, bien presentada y buena relación calidad-precio. Todo el personal es amable y el servicio excelente. Además perros, lo recomiendo encarecidamente.

Esta era mi primera visita y encantados con el menú de almuerzo de dos platos, además de la sopa casera era muy sabrosa. Con un personal amable, limpio inodoros y precios muy razonables, esta es una verdadera JOYA justo al lado de la calle principal en Portobello.

Keith and his team are ever smiling, ever patient and provide great service and great value. We (and our dog) are regular visitors for Sunday brunch and occasional weekend dinner.

We had our dinner at Butternut Squash last weekend. We just stumbled upon the place when walking back from the beach and decided to eat there. We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of service and food.

I won't lie, I went in because of the pub name (it has an interesting historical background) but the food was absolutely first class. Bangers and mash were on point and the servers were absolutely fantastic. The prices were good, too. 10/10 recomendation.

The selection of whisky is great and the food was alright but felt it was way overpriced for the quality we received. We were also charged £8 twice for one portion of the haggis bon bons (apparently this is some kind of a service charge, ridiculous we had to pay double for one small dish) Seems like a tourist trap to be honest and I don't think we will be back. There are so many better bars with more reasonable prices and better service.

We was on a short trip in Edinburgh and this place was the best to breakfast! So tasty and handmade food and drink.
