We ate in and went for the club sandwich and a panini, washed down with some tea. The food was decent, and the portions were so huge we thought we might need a wheelbarrow to get home! Our server was so sweet we were ready to take her home with us—honestly, she was the highlight of the meal. The server on duty on Sept 20 around noon -- KEEPER! The place is a bit of a hidden gem, tucked away in the building. As for the view, well, it’s mostly sky, rooftops and chimneys. It’s quirky, but somehow it works!

Tripledecker sandwich outstanding !! Enough for two. Friendly staff. Just outside Castle gate. Had the place to ourselves. Only drawback is its warm in summer. Glass roof does make it like a glasshouse but we sat by aircon unit. Happy to have some peace from the multitude outside

Had a lovely lunch here. Mushroom omelette and chips. Relaxing space, away from the crowds. Lovely staff.

Took over 40 minutes to receive our food. The custom panini had all the wrong ingredients and the salad wasn't as described at all. Plus the eggs were GREEN. The fish fingers kids meal was ok, but it wasn't good quality.

Great cafe food that’s filling and cheap. Staff are all lovely and friendly. The Castlehill club was great! If you come here expecting 5-star restaurant quality food at this price… someone needs to explain to you what a cafe is.

The Castlehill Club is the perfect triple decker sandwich to fill you up, after a lengthy tour around the Edinburgh Castle. I was too full to eat the chips, but I believe they were good too. Delicious!

I only gave the food 1 star because there wasn’t a lower option. Went with my parents and all 3 of us had the breakfast - it took 35 minutes to arrive despite us being the only customers having food (was another couple in there just having coffee). Food was over cooked, like chewing leather. Except the square sausage which was both over cooked yet undercooked at the same time. A real skill to pull that off. All 3 of us spent the night running to the bathroom. If you go here, stick to coffee and ignore the food. Staff are friendly but they really need to hire someone with an actual qualification in food preparation.

My friend and I went of for lunch after visiting the castle. It was difficult to find but we both liked the ambients. The staff was friendly but unfortunately we couldn’t enjoy the food. First I thought it’s about my personal taste but you could definitely tell that the other guest didn’t enjoy either. It’s not the worst I ever had but I won’t go back for lunch.

Even though you have to search for the restaurant inside the Tartan Weaving Mill shop at the top of the Royal Mile, it is well worth the effort. I can honestly say that the lentil soup was the best I've ever had. Delicious and warm, highly recommended on a cold winter's day. The portion was huge (see the picture), but I did my very best to finish it.

An interesting experience. Repeated my order twice so that nothing was misheard. Latte instead of a cappuccino - oh well. 20 minutes later, my vegetarian sausage and egg bap becomes an ambiguously meaty sausage bap - no egg in sight. Speaking of eggs, my girlfriend’s order comes 10 minutes later, delivered by a young man wearing a backpack with a skateboard attached, boasting ‘he doesn’t even work here’ - odd! From the photo you’ll see this scrambled egg on toast was in fact mushy egg on bread, topped off with a side of *one* slice of cucumber and *one* slice of tomato. Minimalism, I guess. Came here for the modest prices. Realised they were actually an unfair reflection of the food and service 😂 jokes on us I guess. Staff were friendly, for what it’s worth

Llegué temprano el domingo de recuerdo, decidí tomar un bocado y un té con mi madre. Revisamos el menú en la entrada de la cafetería y esperamos un momento para ver si nos acercaban. El personal detrás del mostrador podía vernos pero no nos reconoció en absoluto. Nos acercamos al mostrador, sin saber si sentarse o esperar a sentarnos, y aún así, el miembro del personal no estaba interesado. Luego le pregunté si teníamos que sentarnos o si deberíamos esperar para sentarnos: el cliente en el mostrador respondió 'tal como lo desea'. Mi madre luego atrapó al miembro del personal detrás del mostrador alzó las cejas y puso los ojos en blanco ante mi pregunta. Al darse cuenta de esto, mi madre me pidió que me fuera y me dijo lo que vio. Decidimos no comer allí y no recomendaría este lugar a cualquiera. No es de extrañar que el café estuviera prácticamente vacío: el personal no quiere servir a nadie y lo dejó muy claro.

Apareció para tomar una copa y un panecillo durante nuestro paseo por Edimburgo, la comida que se ofrecía era agradable y muy pequeña y silenciosa, escondida en la experiencia del tejido de tartán para que no supiera que está aquí a menos que haya buscado mucho

I have been going to this place regularly since 2016. Every 2-3 months went to this place to rest of my walks on Royal Mile. I love the location and architecture. Not anymore, it is going downhill, lasts times the staff has been more and more rude. Looks like anyone there want actually be there working. Some of times they looked at me like if I were disturbing their peace, and sometimes it looks like it is more a staff canteen than an open to the public business.

We went to this restaurant as it was close to Edinburgh Castle. Even though it was rooftop, there was no great view - and the service was the worst I have experienced in a very long time. Saying that the food was very ordinary is paying it a compliment. I would not recommend this restaurant.

The view is excellent, unfortunately the staff couldn't be bothered to actually do something. We were told that we would need to wait a few minutes because they were busy. Two minutes later, the waiters decided to have lunch and ignore us. After we finally managed to order (that really took some effort), it took another 20 Minutes for the coffee to arrive. Never have I ever witnessed it taking the better part of an hour to have an espresso.

Un lugar escondido en la Royal mile para parar a tomar un café después de recorrer la milla muy bonito y tranquilo. La vista a los edificios superiores de la Royal mile es increíble. Su techo vidriado es una de las cosas que más me ha gustado del lugar.

We wanted to eat before going to Edinburgh Castle. Castlehill Rooftop Diner is pretty much the last stop on the Royal Mile before reaching castle. It is on the right side of the street and as the name implies it is on the top floor. The food was good, but there was only one person acting as host/waiter/busperson. So we had to wait a bit before giving our order, etc.

Above the Weaving Mill a couple of minutes walk from the Castle. Has nice paninis that come with plenty of nice chips and salad but small menu. Service was a little slow but we weren't charged for our drinks as an apology, so I assume it's not the norm.

El pescado y las patatas fritas eran frescas y crujientes, servidos con ensalada fresca y salsa blanca. Tuve sándwiches con papas fritas y ensalada. Gran calidad a precios pequeños en una estructura sin duda moderno, en la azotea con vistas a la ciudad antigua y una vista lejana del mar. Espectacular! Oír la lluvia azotaba las ventanas de cristal es muy romántico! Lástima que no pude probar los postres. Yo estaba demasiado lleno! Sin duda volveremos para yhd cheesecake y crema escocesa de hielo.

Nos habíamos ido al castillo y almuerzo es necesario. Royal mile estaba abarrotada de gente y necesitamos tener espacio para un cochecito, que es difícil en la mayoría de los pubs y cafés. Decidimos probar este lugar, en el último piso en el Molino de tartán. Estaba casi vacío, a pesar de la tienda muy lleno de abajo. Hay un ascensor para acceder a, si fuera necesario, y había un montón de espacio. No es uno de los mejores y lugar, pero es bueno, y las sillas eran cómodas.

Fuimos a café y bollos pero no lo hacen, así que teníamos un cruasán bollos de almendra, que estaba rancio y sin duda no es fresco. El mostrador donde se pida comida estaba muy vacío y sólo un par de pasteles de oferta ese día. La hervidora tirados por todas partes como la jarra de leche. Éramos las únicas personas allí, lo cual fue muy sorprendente dado que la tienda de abajo estaba atestado de turistas. Tal vez lo había estado antes, y decidió no volver.

Una buena parada de descanso en la parte de arriba de la larga serie de tiendas más abajo, sirven buenos sandwiches aquí! La camarera era un poco preocupados pero que no puede ser celebrado contra ella demasiado, ya que parece la carga de todo el edificio fue distribuido en algunos aspectos. Disfrutamos de un buen almuerzo soleado aquí antes de ir hacia el castillo, es una muy buena opción.

Fica dentro da Tecelagem Mill. É um lugar muito agradável e o restaurante serve comida tradicional escocesa a um preço razoável. O restaurante é todo envidraçado, inclusive no teto, ou seja, dispensável dizer que a vista é incrível. o atendimento também contou com a simpatia do garçom / atendente / cozinheiro. Fomos 2 vezes durante nossa estadia. Com certeza vale a pena se você estiver na área.

Hidden away in the Tartan Weaving Mill there is a restaurant offering traditional Scottish food at a reasonable price, definetly worth checking out if you're in the area.

Chaos since table-service disappeared, and massively over-priced. Notices boast of sandwich ingredients grown in the garden, yet the very ordinary sandwiches cost £8.50 each. A simple dish of hummus - a laughable £12.50. The queue bottle-necks from the start at the cold-counter with no visibility of the hot-counter. There is a curious gap between the hot counter and coffee/cakes counter, where customers struggle to balance trays of food, or watch others rightly skip the queue via the gap because they only want coffee/cakes. The toilets are airless, disgusting and too limited for the number of diners.

Been to this place several times and it has been gradually sinking downhill. The drinks prices are through the roof, and the senior staff are extremely rude. Save your money, go elsewhere.
