we went last night (wednesday) and had an amazing time. the atmosphere was lovely and not too busy (weekday) and we were served by Neve, who was incredible and really made the experience. they took the time to chat to us, which was lovely, they were very knowledgeable about the different drinks they served and they were able to interact with every customer really well, and then come back to chat to us without leaving anyone unserved. if we’re ever in Edinburgh again, we will be coming back and hopefully seeing Neve. also the drag drums and dj was really cool :) a note to the super cool owner who’s been leaving genius replies to awful reviewers-Neve is genuinely amazing and we really appreciated their kindness and friendliness, they really made our night!! if this could be passed on to them that would be lovely! (we didn’t get a chance to ask their pronouns and i don’t like to assume)

A nice and spacious place to go to dance. I was afraid it was a real club, but it’s more of a dancing bar, which I prefer. So I was happy with the time spent there 😊

All the Black, Brown, Asian and Latinx queer peeps out there, let's show we bring and deserve love in our LGBTIQ community and that intolerance like the group of people who pushed me tonight do not have a voice in our community. For queer and trans people from all backgrounds, accent and style, I'm sending my love! Thanks for the security guys for being there for me. Cheers 🫶🏻🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Don't go, we ordered some simple nachos and it took 1 hour, when we complained, they came to verify the payment doubting that we had paid, after verifying they brought us the nachos. They treated us very badly, being a community bar they should have made it more cool, we finished eating and went to another bar. A disappointment 🤨👎

Great venue and atmosphere when busy. Friday and Saturday nights have good vibes and music. The service can vary from welcoming and friendly through to getting a blank stare and silence when you go to the bar to order. I have found that some of the male bar staff are not so welcoming and can be quite arrogant. Unless you are a mate of theirs, only then will you get their undivided attention and a ‘hello’ and ‘thank you’ when you are ordering a drink. It’s a great night out if you don’t care that some of the bar staff don’t care.

A Hidden Gem for Any Day of the Week! I stumbled upon this cute and cosy bar on a Tuesday evening, and it was a delightful experience. The atmosphere is perfect for a relaxed night out, but I can easily imagine it being a lively spot on the weekends. The beer selection is fantastic, and the decor adds a lovely touch to the overall vibe. Even though it was a bit quiet for a weeknight, it only added to the charm. Full marks from me!

From shows downstairs to a busy atmosphere and music upstairs, this venue collectively covers everything you could be looking for on a fun night out with friends or a date in Edinburgh. Undoubtedly will be back and thanks again to Annie and the rest of the dedicated friendly team here at CC’s!

I entered this establishment and was not received in any way. One of the workers passed by me two times and didn’t even say a word. When asked for a table to eat dinner the staff said and I quote “The kitchen is too small, we can’t make any of the big plates”, which basically means they serve snacks and it’s impossible to have a decent meal. I don’t recommend this place at all.

The bouncers are aggressive, they shout at you for no reason and they have a weird powers trip of not letting people in. My bf and I were refused entrance on the basis that we wore “sports clothes”. Meanwhile they let in a bunch of guys wearing sports clothes. When I requested to speak with the manager they made me wait for 30 minutes. The supposed manager came out and didn’t even make eye contact with me or spoke with me. She just spoke with the bouncers and went back in. Absolutely disgrace for cc blooms. To refuse entry to good looking gay men when it’s supposed to be a gay bar. Sort yourselves out babes x

I don’t think I had ever felt looked down and just treated so “different” especially in an lgbt bar as they sell themselves. I’ve been there twice with some girlfriends and with my gf the 2nd time (only cuz I gave it the chance it was my imagination). I’m non binary and u guess I come across as trans; but I’d really not recommend this place to anyone. After that I’ve been asking in queer groups from uni and experiences aren’t that much different, they just sell them selves as lgbt, and apparently their drag events are a hit; but on a daily basis, no one would go to this place as a first option. There aren’t that many other queer options in the city, but believe me, all those are better. This last night, the guard even doubled checked my Id “just to make sure it wasn’t fake while looking me as if I was so out a place (ofc all that after being such a dream to my gf); inside the story wasn’t very different but they’d just ignored me even though clearly talking to both of us. At that point I was just checking if I had anything weird on me, or I looked that bad; anyway, this place s so dead to me

Ordered two doubles and two shots at the bar, noticed that the bartender gave me the card machine without it asking me for a tip. The card machine will ask you if you’d want to give a tip or not, I usually would however I noticed it went straight to approx £38. I then found that the bartender had tipped themselves £5.06 on top of a £33 bill that I paid for. After complaining, they offered me a “free drink” instead of my actual money back. They essentially gave me drinks that I had paid for with my tip?? Again, happy to tip but don’t be cheeky.

Went to a club night for uni students and was totally appalled by how security was treating people. my mates were in the bathroom stalls together (as most girls do in the club) and security started banging on the door and yelling saying to get out which is honestly a scary experience as a girl. Bathrooms in clubs are safe spaces for women, and while the security explained that the policy was one person to a stall because he didn’t know if we were doing drugs or quote “having gay sex” (yes! he said that), it’s scary to have some guy banging on your stall and freaking out when you’re just trying to pee. when we got out he was stood waiting right outside and then he just wordlessly escorted us out saying there was a sign that said one person per stall and we should’ve seen it (no other club I’ve been to in Edinburgh does this). While I understand the policy and why it’s there, it’s seriously not okay to have a male bouncer dressed fully up in black with only his eyes visible just freaking out at women who are using the bathroom. I thought a gay club would be a safe place for women but this was the most uncomfortable I’ve felt in a while. also mind you I was sober when this happened, we weren’t “over intoxicated” as the owner keeps claiming everyone who complains is.

Very unprepared people, the girl with short hair treating everyone bad, laughing and being sarcastic all time. Forced me to pay tip for her and because I refused she told me “this will be your last drink because I see that you’re not okay” I only got one beer and was perfectly fine. When I came back and gave her 4£ extra she didn’t say a word. I don’t recommend this place. Sure you got plenty more options of places with better customer service and people who really makes you feel welcome and safe.

CC Blooms is a letdown when it comes to service quality. My experience there was extremely disappointing. Upon arrival, I was greeted with indifference by the staff, who seemed more interested in chatting amongst themselves than attending to customers.The service was incredibly slow, taking an eternity to get any order through. Moreover, the lack of attention to detail was evident - wrong drinks and even forgotten orders were common during my visit.The cleanliness of the venue also left much to be desired. Dirty tables, poorly maintained bathrooms, and an overall atmosphere of neglect contributed to an unpleasant experience.I wouldn't recommend CC Blooms to anyone seeking quality service and an enjoyable night out. This establishment seriously lacks acceptable standards of customer service and venue upkeep.

Good: Awesome and super friendly bar staff, free and hilarious shows. Bad: a racist girl and homophobic girls. (Not the bar's fault). I read the reviews and I was a bit hesitant to go. As I walked in, the waiter smiled right at me and welcomed me to the establishment, he was super friendly and nice, I ordered a drink and some food. Everything was super good. I decided to stay for a free show. It was hilarious, clever, very sexy and entertaining, I laughed so much. So the aspects that the bar can control are really good: great service, good food and fun shows. Unfortunately, a girl that was quite drunk turns around (white blond girl if it's relevant, looks at me, opens her purse to check for something and tells me that she thought I had stolen her phone. I asked her why would she say something like that and she looks at me with her dead drunk eyes and tells me that I look dodgee. The bartender told me to just please ignore her. I heard on tv about this subtle racism in the UK and I was shocked. (I'm sorry for the people that endure it all the time). Then at the show everything was fun and giggles, we all were having a great time but then the show had a gay twist to it and a group of girls left right away, the birthday girl was not having it, she was bothered by a gay storyline in a gay bar! By the reviews of this and the other gay bars, there's quite some racism and also some issues with straight girls coming into our safe space and not respecting us. This is not the bar's fault but seems like a bigger issue in Edinburgh. I give the bar 4 stars though, they were very nice to me in every single interaction, I just wish the bartender would've stood up to the racist girl. Koodos for having the funny and clever shows (and for free).

Used to be such a regular at CC blooms but honestly the place has gone so downhill over the past year. Firstly I don't know if you have changed the company you use to hire your bouncers recently but the quality has gone downhill massively. Male bouncers regularly making gross comments towards female patrons and lewd jokes which would be completely unacceptable in any other environment. Secondly the man who does your cloak room has to have the worst attitude I have ever seen in a club. He is completely rude to everyone and always rolling his eyes if anyone has the audacity to ask to put their jacket in. Usually gave this the benefit of the doubt that I was slightly tipsy and maybe being sensitive but very much confirmed yesterday when I entered the club bone dry sober. Showed my Mile high club card in 3 different formats and he told me it wasn't on my apple wallet so wasn't accepting it. SPOILERS I have an android so of course it wasn't. Kept being told "I don't care, I don't care just pay". Your only saving grace is your bar staff who are generally so friendly and looking out for patrons on a regular basis. One example was a couple of months ago when I had unknowingly been spiked in either Planet or CCs and your staff noticed I wasn't okay. Cut me off from alcohol and provided me with plenty of water. Extremely thankful for this incident and only reason I'm giving more than 1 star. Changes need to happen seriously soon as almost every LGBTQIA+ person I know is getting sick of the place and moving elsewhere. Hive is becoming a friendlier option!

Two stars is all I can give. I’ve only been twice (between the hours of 6 and 10 pm). The bar staff isn’t that friendly. Cards only, and tipping is certainly pointed out to you when paying on the device. The security is over the top. We happened to have a water bottle (sealed and unintentional) in our backpack and we’re made to dispose of it before we entered. We were there for drinks… rather silly. Last Friday night there were more people there than my first visit… but no one socialized. A very unsocial crowd. I have no plans to return.

My partner and friends had a really bad experience from this place on Saturday, we were in the downstairs bar, put the jackets on a stool, the bar was empty, and the female barman complained with the security, and we were asked to leave the place, just because our jackets were in a bar stool. They never were no reasonable, we could understand and remove the jackets and the stool, if the place were busy, but it wasn’t. Obviously, security no gay friendly, we tried to explain, he never wanted to listen to us. and the place is not a gay destination bar( club) as they said. Very disappointed with this experience. I had to edit this message as I cannot reply to the owner, we never had the opportunity to explain as the security never allowed us to do so. And the owner have said we were aggressive? Aggressive the security on the door that doesn’t have no manners how to treat clients. Is a petty, that this bar are loosing so much lgbt customers.

The bar staff were great all night however one younger male one has probably the worst attitude ever seen, when ordered drinks had barely finished and he shouted ‘PLEASE’ at me with a total scowl on his face, had ordered a few drinks and he brought a couple over, thinking he might have missed a couple I mentioned them to which he shouted ‘I ONLY HAVE ONE PAIR OF HANDS’ Can’t believe he was speaking to a paying customer like that, really needs to think about whether he wants to work in hospitality Ruined what was otherwise a good experience

We were in Edinburgh as a group of six; mixed ages and sexuality. We went here to check out the gay scene and have a boogie. I really liked the club itself; the decor and atmosphere were great. The drinks were mostly ok but their soda machine thingy broke and the fizzy mixers were an issue. We had bottled mixers instead so easy fixed, although we were give gin and soda instead of tonic in one round. They changed them quickly though so no real bother. We danced to some fun music and met some great people. I heard some girls doing coke in the toilet (from the toilet seat I saw when I used the loo after them) but i guess this is the norm these days no matter how much searching bags etc you do in the doors. I felt a bit awkward about it but hey - each to their own. I’m a bit older than the typical clientele here and although there was a mix I’d say the average age is around 20. I would have adored this place in my 20’s!! All in all a good night but deffo one for the younger generation (as all clubs are I guess!!) 😉😉

Well I decided to go for one drink and was refused entry and asked how long I’d been out by the door staff. I informed the door staff I’d just come out the now and hadn’t had a drink. I’m a former staff member from years ago and have noticed a massive change. This would have been my first night out in 2 years and I only wanted two drinks at the most. I attended smart and sober. I simply said that’s really weird like and just walked away. I will be calling the bar tomorrow to ask how this can be dealt with in the future as I felt there was no solution or point arguing. I did try to contact the bar by telephone however no answer or no voicemail could be left. I’ll definitely wouldn’t recommend going in sober as you’ll be rejected! Point of exercise of going out was to phase back in to going out again due to covid restrictions. I asked if there was a queue to form as I didn’t know the procedures to follow and there was also people standing at the door to the right hand side which I wasnt sure if that was the queue to stand to maybe track and trace etc. I’ll be sure to call tomorrow to report this. The attitude from the door staff was bizarre. Shame as it’s really money lost due to the bouncers dislike for me it seemed.

Me and my friend came in last night and after a few to many bottles of Prosecco sang all the way home. Keep it up guys you’re doing great!

My overall expectations and experience of this place over the years has deteriorated, just like the standards and experience you have when you go in there. Nothing welcoming, grumpy staff, and obviously arrogant owners which you can certainly tell by the not so positive or constructive responses they have made from the negative reviews. Within the Edinburgh Gay community they certainly don’t support and welcome us as their local customers. It’s a Pity they every took over CC’s.

Came here for drinks last night 13.02.20, the barmaid with pink hair was very grumpy and rude to us. Absolutely not a welcoming feel and not very friendly, such a shame for a nice Venue.

Fui aquí antes de visitar el Playhouse para algo de comer. el personal es muy amable y la decoración peculiar. La comida era muy buena, pero un par de cosas menores me hicieron darle una calificación promedio. En primer lugar, no se ofrecen papas fritas (papas fritas) con las comidas solo papas rizadas (Yuch) o papas en trozos. Pedí la hamburguesa Edin y fue lo suficientemente agradable, sin embargo vino con salsa Haggis y Pepper y esto fue un problema. La salsa de pimienta se convirtió en la carne picada de Haggis y se habría servido mucho mejor en un plato de acompañamiento. Aparte de eso un lugar de O. K. Me gustaría volver a entrar si estuviera en la zona.

Just wanted somewhere nice for pre show drinks. This bar looked ok from the outside but is overpriced and nowhere near as good as it thinks it is. My wifes drink came in a chipped glass with no garnish. The newspaper menus are just confusing so they would be better to just have ordinary cards

Apareció para un bocado rápido antes de un espectáculo. El menú viene en un formato muy original: el de un periódico con menú y bebidas junto con mucha otra información. El pedido fue colocado en el bar donde también pagas. La comida fue entregada rápidamente nuevamente de una manera muy original. Aparte de la música muy alta un buen lugar para comer.

Reservamos aquí para el almuerzo y bebidas antes del teatro. Al llegar no encontré una mesa, pero juntaron las mesas, y luego dijeron que la comida duraría una hora, ¡y solo 5 minutos después se le dijo que la cocina estaba cerrada! El lugar no estaba muy ocupado, no hay explicación de por qué! Nos dijeron que nos darían un descuento en la factura de bebidas, 2. 03, 10% de la factura! Muy decepcionado con el servicio, entender si estaba ocupado. Volveré a visitar, probablemente no, muchos otros lugares felices por la costumbre.

We have passed this place many times, but always en route to somewhere else to eat. However, I am so glad we stopped in. We just wanted a light, quick bite, before heading to Murrayfield, and thought we would give it a try.

It ain't grand. It is a Pub. But the staff were engaging and focused. The drinks were atractive.There were enough nooks and crannies to have a quiet chat. We enjoyed our hour or so here.

Nos detuvimos por conveniencia cuando estuvimos en un hotel cercano. Nuestro servidor fue genial y muy entretenido. Nos registramos para obtener una tarjeta de fidelidad y obtuvimos un descuento en nuestra comida y bebida. Tuve una ensalada César que era de un tamaño decente y era como se esperaba. Todos los camareros parecían muy atentos y divertidos. Probablemente un lugar de moda hasta tarde en la noche, pero no pudimos quedarnos ya que teníamos una gira para seguir.

We went here for dinner only because it was super close to the Glasshouse hotel where we were staying and it was super crappy weather and my wife did not want to walk around exploring to look for something else. In fact, I made a deal with here that we could stop at the first place we came to that she picked. This place was 2 doors down from the hotel. :) We were there for the pre-show time period (which applies even if there is no show going on at the venue next door. The music was hop and clubby. We both opted for the 2-course menu option which provided a few different options. Neither of us was disappointed with the food that was delivered. It was quickly prepared and fresh and healthy portions.

Typical Weatherspoons pub very busy. Very good value, especially for location. Edinburgh pubs get full on a Saturday night, so you will need to get out early.

Monboddo is a good go-to restaurant while staying at the Doubtree Hilton in Edinburgh. Although I would not have chosen to dine there as many times if I weren't a hotel guest. Location and availability were a great convenience while traveling. The breakfast buffet is extensive, offering the main staples of a hearty Scottish breakfast. I highly encourage patrons to order off the special menu for fresh eggs made to order. The extra few minutes are worth the wait. Dinner there on my first night was good, but nothing extraordinary. The service was pleasant and welcoming. The atmosphere and decor are higher end. In minor detail, there is no place to keep your handbag if you are seated in the central dining area other than your lap or the floor. The round back chairs are not accommodating, so ask for a side booth. The side bar area close by is a very nice area to stay if you are waiting for a table. Overall, it was a fine place to dine during my stay in Scotland.

Set on the promenade in Portobello, it has a scenic sea view. Spacious and cheerfully decorated. Good quality and well presented food. Service was excellent. It was popular and busy when we went so we had to wait 10 minutes for a free table but it was definitely worth it.
