Crombies of Edinburgh in Edinburgh, City of

Visiting from ireland and we booked a table here online they hadn't a clue what I was talking about rude lady in suit we got a table lucky it wasn't too busy. Ordered the steak my partner said was amazing I ordered the lamb idiot sandwich can't fault a thing with what we had the cocktails were nice has well can't wait to come back

Not great, service started well, unfortunately deteriorated, food very average and massively overpriced. All the restaurants nearby were full and booked up... Makes you wonder, we could easily get a table at Bread. Name is keeping this attractive.

We ate Gordon’s fish & chips and roast cod fish. Both were excellent.

5 stars for Jason the waiter. The person who greeted us at the door wasn’t very friendly

Amazing food, great service, fantastic atmosphere. We came from Lithuania to celebrate my birthday. We couldn't have hoped for a better gift. Thank you, chef, for the divine Wellington steak 😊

Delicious food. Sea bream any fish lovers dream.

My wife and I were there on Sunday, after having received a voucher for Christmas. All the staff that we met were extremely friendly and helpful. The food was absolutely delicious and the portion sizes were big. It was the first time that we have been but certainly won't be the last, would definitely recommend going.

We had a lovely time at this restaurant, The food was excellent,the service was first class and the staff were very helpful and very professional without being in your face. Highly Recommend, James Frame.

Their gas was down when we were there. They compensated accordingly.

Fabulous! Every dish we tried was better than the last! And the cocktails were wonderful, too.

Finally got to try Ramsay’s famous beef wellies and they surely lived up to the hype. I thoroughly enjoyed the mashed potatoes, it’s the best I’ve had. Good wine selection too. My husband and I had a lovely time.

Great food, nice people, overall good place

Excellent Mother’s deal lunch. Bread Street never fails to deliver. What better compliment than a clean plate!

Came in with my mum for Mother’s Day and the service was amazing so was the food. Will definitely be back!

The food was great and service was excellent.

I had a great meal at Gordon Ramsay's Bread Street Kitchen. The food was tasty, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was nice and relaxed. Overall, a solid place to enjoy a good meal!

We used the itison. The wings and cod bites were delicious. The minute steak and peppercorn sauce was very average. I had a delicious mocktail berry blast. The service was good.

It is ok. Small portions for the price. Taste is ok but not wow to urge me to go back.

I had a complete explanation of my grading, but it appears this review is being blocked?? Service was so bad I returned to the restaurant the following day to speak with the general manager, who was exceptional in his customer care. He took all my details and I felt I'd been heard. £200+ for a meal for two, but that's fine it was our 25th anniversary, and I booked 7 months ahead , I've edited this review a number of times .... I honestly don't know what TnC's I've breached 😭. All i asked for was sparkling water with my meal..... and J said NO you will have tap water.""" I've stayed in Scotland now for 11 years. Yes, I have a foreign accent, but I moved my family and businesses to this country, and Scotland is amazing , I drink 2 to 3 litres of Scottish tap water each day.....I just take sparkling water with my meals.🙅‍♂️. The food was top notch, the service was pants. I've pics, but as I'm blocked, I've also removed them.

Food was amazing, especially the cocktail. Set menu was great value of money. The service was, however, great at first, but it got worst as the meal progressed and staff changed. A more senior staff with suit was not very friendly, but the bartender was very kind even though it may not be his job to serve my table.

Excellent service and great quality food.

I came from Australia I've been to London's savoy but I must say again excellent service and the burger the best I've ever had seasoned so well cooked to perfection well worth the experience and price

We went to Bread Street Kitchen & Bar to celebrate our 2 year's anniversary and we had an amazing experience. Ollie was absolutely amazing, his calm and attentiveness lifted the whole experience. It was definitely a fun evening, and the food was mouth watering.

We just came in for the beef wellington experience for our honeymoon and the entire experience from start to finish was amazing. Food was incredible, ollie our waiter was hilarious and so accommodating. We will be back thank you all

So what do you expect from the master of tv chefs...simple menu, served quickly, done well. The fish batter on the fish and chips was just so nice and light yet crispy, adorning a very tasty piece of fish. The chips accompanying the fish were perfection of chunky chips, served with some salt . The butter chicken was nice, but in my opinion, I've had nicer and in more basic restaurants. But our server, Jason, was the epitome of what a great server should be...knowledgeable and witty, having a raport and some joviality with us and other diners. But here's my disappointment...I expected the loos to be nice, and I was sorry to see them not particularly clean, and in a poor condition. I remember being told to always judge an establishment by its toilets...and I'll score them a 3* for that reason.

Incredible evening due to the fantastic food, atmosphere and service. Massive shoutout to our waiter Ollie and bartender Kyle who made us feel so special and went above and beyond to give us a wonderful service. Will definitely be returning and recommending to friends!

We where encouraged to go for set menu to be fair sounded good here we go ! Starter chicken wings hot on the outside luke warm in the centre my wife had fish bites, stodgy batter hardly taste the fish ! Mains were steak strips ok, wife had fish ok ! Asked for side of macaroni was told it was burning hot 🔥 just a pity the inside was 🥶 to be fair was not charged for it but would rather not hear them saying this has not ever happened before rather they concentrate making sure food is served with attention being paid ! Yea Gordon if you get a chance pop in undercover 🥸 see what's going on standards slipping shame but not good enough !!! Folks work hard for their money, this was NOT value today.. ruined an otherwise rare day off with my wife.

Service was excellent, I think Jason was our servers name and he made us feel very at home. Food was lovely. We got the Wellington and burrata to start. Wasn't anything mind blowing but we enjoyed it. Desserts were lovely too, nothing out of this world, the salted caramel icecream should be showcased more as it was the highlight of the chocolate fondant dish

We had a beautiful meal while on a trip to Edinburgh. The food was absolutely incredible, the atmosphere so welcoming & warm. Fantastic service (especially from Jamie) he really looked after us & gave us great food recommendations. Thanks for a lovely evening guys!

Good quality but small portions and no special tastes. The staff was very kind.

Very disappointing. Phoned in advance as on a fat free diet & told I could be accommodated no problem. This wasn't the case & waiter wasn't clued up atall with menu. We were a party of 6. I had Sea bream in the end & it was minute with a few bits of broccoli. I asked for boiled potato but they couldn't provide that. Offered chips or creamy mash neither I could have. Another in the party ordered a quinoa salad that again was absolutely minute & asked if this was a mistake & was a side salad instead of a main course. We arrived at 5pm & we're going to theatre at 7.30pm & weren't able to have time for a sweet as the service was so slow. When the bill came we were charged £20 extra for a bottle of red wine. It turned out we were given a dearer wine than we ordered. Admittedly they took the £20 off the bill. Sharp practice, were they hoping we wouldn't notice. Myself & the person having the salad left really hungry. All round a very bad & disappointing experience. Avoid this place. Plays on name but it's just a rip off.

I recommend this restaurant. I was there with friends for dinner. The food was very good, and the service was even better. Agata guided us through the menu and was able to advise us very precisely, helping us make the right choices. The evening was a success, and our bellies were full.

I had received a trip to the Bread Street Kitchen as a gift and we finally had the opportunity to take advantage of the deal. Myself, I enjoyed my starter of Wings and my wife tried the cod bites, which she also enjoyed (I did have a bite and the tartare sauce was really nice). We had invited our daughter and this is where it fell apart, not because of her, well maybe.🤣 Her Macaroni was a bit sloppy and tasteless. She enjoyed the fries as they were referred to as "banging". When the mains arrived they were both visually impressive. My steak was cooked perfectly, and the chips were tasty but then I also tried my wife's chickpea curry. It wasn't bad, but it just wasn't as good as the steak (fair enough) but the rice was crunchy, the best way to describe it. Finally we hit the dessert, it stepped up the game again. Service was amazing, the staff were attentative and friendly which makes it hard to write something with a negative view when they were such a positive aspect.

I had the great pleasure of having dinner with my family at Bread Street Kitchen. Agata took care of us the whole evening and was very helpful in choosing dishes. The food and drinks, along with the atmosphere, were of a high standard. I will definitely go back.

We were there for my son's birthday! Just 3 of us! The staff were incredibly nice and professional, thanks to Ollie. My son ordered the steak, and it was fabulous . My husband ordered chicken. Cury also was great.. I decided to get Ramsey signature dish, which it was fish and chips , unfortunately, it was so oily ! If Ramsey was there, he definitely cursed them all 😉! But I didn't say anything because Ramsey is my son's hero, and he loves him madly 🤪. I didn't want to ruin my son time. The bill was about £200! The tax and tip included which was pricey for me.🫠 By the way, the staff made a great gesture and brought a special Happy birthday treat.

Delicious food and superb service here in Edinburgh

Owen our service was amazing!! And the food was absolutely gorgeous! Couldn’t recommend more!

Jason, our server was wonderful

Lovely food very friendly staff. Will definitely be back

Beautiful food, fantastic service.

Atmosphere was "no buzz". service was ok, food REALLY disappointing. Scollops were nice but not special, burger not as good as Five Guys, and sent the sticky toffee pudding back as inedible. Gordon should be ashamed.

Went here on my girlfriend's birthday. The beef Wellington was nicely cooked, one of the best beef I've ever had. Had a great time. You can't get bad food in a Gordon Ramsay's restaurant.

We visited Gordon Ramsey in St Andrew Square Edinburgh ,the food was fantastic and the staff so helpful especially Ollie

Ordered an idiot burger, chips and onion rings, the burger was dry as hell I couldn't even chew it and ended throwing it up into the bin, chips were terrible and the onion rings were dripping oil. Disgusting. I will never again order from this restaurant. In burger king they cook better burgers and is much cheaper.

Gordon for the masses. Bread Street Kitchen is a busy local hangout on St Andrews Square in the New Town area of Edinburgh. With Ramsey's name above the door, you know it's going to be good quality and as restaurants go ..this one is a good choice. It's a huge warehouse style eatery with wall to ceiling windows and exposed duct work and industrial. The service is pacey and well organised. The menu is decent and for a nice dinner you'll be paying about £70 a head for (unless you opt for dry aged steaks). Portions are ok. On this lunchtime visit, I enjoyed the Butter Chicken Curry 🍛 and Saffron Rice 🍚, followed by a Black Forrest Cheesecake. I added a glass of coke and it came to £45.00 Waiting staff checked back regularly and although it was quiet on this visit, it can be very so book ahead. There is also a set menu which offers great value if you're easily pleased in choice.

Popped in here for drinks, really nice bar. It was quiet when we’re in but we enjoyed the peace to chat!

My roasted cod and sticky toffee pudding were amazing, but burger was just good, not great. Service the same - good, not great. 'Optional' service charge added to the bill, but then without confirmation amount is just punched on card machine. I always leave the tip (i work in the same industry) but this trick made me leaving without, pity

Ollie was our server, we came for my birthday celebration and did the beef wellington experience. That food is enough for 3/4 people!! We had to be rolled out of the restaurant, I’ve never been so full! They changed some starter and dessert for me due to a dairy intolerance, knowing the pastry of the wellington had dairy, I wanted to limit everything else so I could indulge on that! We had an amazing time, our server Ollie made the experience and provided some humour when we mentioned the amount of food!! 10/10 , we are already planning our return. If you do the experience, you get all three starters and desserts, we thought you got to choose one out of the three so we’re very suprised! And very full!

We visited Gordon Ramsay's Breadstreet restaurant in Edinburgh on a Sunday afternoon, and were seated straight away without a booking. The staff were super friendly and welcoming, bringing water and taking drinks orders after just a few minutes. We ordered the fish & chips, and the Chickpea curry. The wait for our food was brief, and it looked every bit as good as it tasted. The batter on my fish was light and crunchy, and the fish was flaky and delicious. The chips were equally tasty, chunky and crispy. I don't normally like mushy peas but I gave them a go and was pleasantly surprised. I'm still not a convert, but I ate my veg 😁 worthy of special mention was the tartare sauce, which was sharp as it should be, and deep in flavour. My fish & chips were a very reasonable £23, and the Chickpea curry was similarly priced. All in all it was a very enjoyable meal, in a very welcoming environment, not at all pretentious. If you've got children, you'll be delighted to know that kids eat free. Highly recommended.

Firstly, I would have thought Gordon would not have "Ben" the "robot" answering the phone..extremely frustrating! Food very dissapointin! Starter, "cod bites" tasteless, too large for a starter! Very tough and cold grilled flat iron steak, for main. chips were good, however, the wilted salad? Not certain about the cold dressing on the steak? uncooked and bitter tasting brownie, watery ice cream, tasteless veloute..which my guest had definately not a cauliflower veloute? Not as I have tasted in other michellin stared restaurants in Edinburgh..then we have the three different charges at the end of the meal? What's going on Gordon..? Bitterly dissapointed in my gift of a 3 course meal for 2...

Service was amazing, Oli was extremely helpful and even suggested a whiskey smash, it was amazing and had to order a second one. Food was amazing and so was the atmosphere

A bit disappeointed, expected more for this name and prices. We tried burgers in GR place nearby and it was really tasty, so decided to have burger here as well. My husband went for fish and chips and it was just fine, but my burger was real disappointment. Meat was overcooked, overall burger really really dry and kind of flavourless. It is really not worth 27£ (I added bacon for extra 3 or 4£)... I didn't share this with staff as they were not really chatty or kind of interested at the end of service (at the beginning the waiter help sith recommendation of wine and food) The whole atmosphere was just okay.

My pasta dish was very heavy and I regret picking it. I'm staying away from cheese for a good while. The lighting is not great in the restaurant I had to squint to read the menu. Overall I think the food could definitely improve. It's overrated

We had great service tonight from Agata, food and dessert was fabulous. Will deffo be back

A big thank you for the perfect service done by Charlie!

Waiter served my dessert to me as a mess, saw that it wasn't put together but still put it in front of me and left despite hesitating. Expected the presentation to be important but I guess not

Absolutely fantastic meal , food was great service was exceptional and a wonderful experience. A massive thank you to Chloe our server for the evening, she made sure our night was special and looked after us. Would definitely come back and really looking forward to it

Food good. Service terrible. It’s a shame nowadays that service is really the difference maker in most restaurants. When going to an establishment like Gordon Ramsay’s, however, you’d expect all the staff to be really well trained in service. I’m not sure if it’s because of things like not being able to hire enough experienced staff for larger establishments shifts anymore, or ever since a service charge has just been added onto the end of bills making service staff generally lazier and less attentive, but it seems across the board service has been appealing at mid-priced restaurants, leaving a sour taste in our mouths. It’s not that anyone was specifically rude or unwelcoming (they definitely weren’t the warmest), however small things that make meals far less enjoyable really make a difference. I ate half of my main meal whilst waiting for a drink that I’d ordered. I tried to follow it up, but I couldn’t get the attention of ANY serving staff no matter how hard I tried. This is DESPITE me noticing my drink waiting for me at the bar, and even watching a bartender tell a member of waiting staff to bring it over. She shrugged, and continued to clean and lay fresh tables next to me - which is odd because it didn’t seem particularly busy so not sure why the rush to turn tables as opposed to servicing customers existed. Eventually, I got up, and walked to the bar and grabbed my own drink. It didn’t stop there, they continued to be inattentive throughout the evening, and when we’d finally had enough and needed to pay, it took us a good 25 minutes to get the attention of someone who would finally get the bill. Despite all this, it still came with a ‘optional gratuity’. Fortunately, my girlfriend was having none of it, and ask them to remove it. The staff did not even care to ask why.

Thoroughly enjoyable experience and the meal was excellent.

Not a big fan of the food, very disappointed, and the price was extortionate, smaller privately owned restaurants are a lot better

Food was terrible. Don’t waste your money.

Brilliant night, unreal food and AMAZING service with Ollie and the rest of the staff. Couldn’t recommend more. Get it booked !!!

I would like to say my burger and chips weren't up to much. To say they were expensive I expected my chips not to look like they had been fried in old fat and my burger was cold. My husbands fish and chips were full of grease. Wouldn't recommend the food at all.

Incredible experience. Steak was lovely and tasty. The only reason I gave 4 stars is due to the fact that steak were very expensive and it comes with literally nothing on the plate but the steak. No veges or anything and you have to pay extra for the sauce which to me was ridiculous enough as surely you would expect to have sauce when you order steak anyway? Id recommend but just be prepared for the bill 😅

Honestly one of the best burgers I've ever had perfect!

Food Fantastic, waitress very polite and great customer service

The waiter was very good, but the kitchen failed to deliver 3 of the 5 dishes we ordered. The bill was adjusted being fair, but what we did get was tasty. We may have chosen a particularly quiet evening, but it was a little soulless.

Food is mixed. Some things are good (cod bites, burger) while others are disappointing (medium steak was served very rare and cool, cauli was bland). Service is very slow even when it's not busy. Pretty looking place but just so many basic errors. Factor in the hefty price and I can't really recommend it.

Fantastic experience. Lovely host

Extremely good value for money if you get the fixed menu, food quality is immense, and fantastic top tier service.

Excellent service and food Jordano is amazing

Very nice set lunch menu. We had cod bites and flat iron steak. Perfect servings and staff were very good. Quiet within however

Nice atmosphere. Looks good. Waiter was stiff and has a better then you attitude. Food was good but not great. Expected more. Salad was lacking and expensive.

Food was great, Atmosphere great + Jason was great

This experiece is Ok, just Ok. We expected more, ofc. The food was not bad, but far from wow/delicious.

Food should never be served cold at anytime, never mind on a Friday afternoon, especially when the place was empty and there's 4 cooks.. Really poor. Drinks were good and the 20 pound meal deal was good. When looking at the bill there was extras added on, which we had deleted. Need to improve big time to return!! 😕 😕 Staff OK but could do with more interaction!!

If I go to Gordon Ramsay's restaurant I expect Gordon Ramsay's fillet Wellington recipe, this one lacked raw ham. I ask the waiter for an explanation who tells me that it is a century-old recipe and that raw meat doesn't work. I ask the Italian waiter for an explanation who tells me that they don't put it there and that perhaps Ramsay has made a recipe with raw meat for the Italian people. What!? Then he says that maybe it's because they don't put pork in many of their dishes due to the fact that they often have halal customers. Okay, I expect that if I pay 120 pounds for a piece of meat that barely weighs 250 grams to be given an explanation for the fact that the recipe does not reflect that of the chef who proposes it. Or at least I expect it to be known that the fillet Wellington proposed by Gordon Ramsay in every one of his videos has raw ham as an ingredient. The pasta around the fillet was moist and therefore mushy, and when it was transported from the serving dish it fell apart. But the worst thing was the raw pasta on the sides. As an Italian cook I was taught that everything put on the plate must be edible. The fact that the waiter tells me that the ends of the wrapper should not be eaten because they are raw leaves me somewhat perplexed. I don't expect something like this from any restaurant, let alone from a restaurant owned by a multi-starred chef. I honestly don't know if this is the right recipe for fillet Wellington, I don't think so, but 120 euros to have raw pasta on your plate is a steal. The "Ramsay selection" wine is terrible and screw capped. Obviously, the cost should have made me think that it wouldn't be the best, but I believed that the 32 pounds were due to the fact that, being one of his wines, he had and wanted to maintain lower costs. £24 for the service, but you can also have them removed if you want. Honestly, I would ask the customer how much he wants to leave, don't write that if you don't want them you can tell the waiter to take them away. In pubs they make you select the percentage you want to leave, here you should tell the waiter to remove his tip. But really? After paying we waited 2 minutes, standing at the door looking for someone to say hello. Nobody in the dining room, nobody at the bar, nobody in the kitchen. And thank goodness that after paying (you pay at the table via QR code) you want to write to say hello before going. Very bad experience. With the same money you can eat in some Michelin-starred restaurants in Italy and leave satisfied, not in a restaurant bar with exorbitant prices just because it bears the name of a chef, whose recipe for his most iconic dish you don't even follow.

One of the best meals we have ever had! Impeccable service!

Happy 50th to me! It was really great!

Everything was great- food, service & ambience!

Just had a large salad eith hollimi nad chicken and that was so nice. And just what was needed. Even got a to go bag to take away with me.

Fantastic experience! Get the beef welly!

Excellent service food super all round really enjoyed my visit would recommend!! Special mention to Olly who spent time chatting and sharing his cocktail knowledge. All round a fantastic visit ⭐️

Went along this afternoon for late lunch. Had the set menu as it was a gift voucher.. was apprehensive as heard varied reports.. The staff where brilliant,Very attentive and nothing was a hassle..Food Was on point and we will be back again in the near future. Would Highly Recommend.

The seasonal menu was great and for a good price.👍

Our waitress was very helpful and friendly, and we enjoyed all our food.

Firstly I have to say the staff were excellent. Very polite and helpful. The food, though good, was no where near the price point. I've tasted better at a Brewers Fayre. Had the Sunday roast beef and unfortunately the gravy tasted like a packet mix with no depth of taste. All in all it didn't come across as anything special.

Honestly we were very disappointed! The dressing on the ceasar salad made one of us physically sick afterwards!! The waiter was really backhanded and unfriendly and then basically asked us to tip him extra, on top of the 14£ service charge we paid. Sorry but crouching down and starting with “let me explain the service charge and tipping to you” was just flat out belittling and weird! We also ordered one Whisky and were then quite shocked when the bill arrived and it was 25£. Maybe our fault for not asking, but 25£ for a dram of whisky is a bit outrageous!

Am sorry to say that's most I have ever paid for fish and chips and a small portion of mushy peas and 2 glass of water the food was cold the chips dry we did not have a choice of anything other than mushy peas defo never be back and very very dissapointed 😢

Food is great. The scallops is well seasoned. The beef cooked well and the slow cooked pork rib is soft and flavourful. Price is high but portions size is not very generous. The highlight for me was the Black Forest cheesecake — rich and creamy, with a scoop of pistachio ice-cream. Really love the ice-cream. The service was excellent, but overall, I felt the prices were on the higher side for the portions offered.

Overall it was unfortunately a disappointing and expensive experience. The waiters were nice and the view from the (unfortunately very small table) directly onto St. Andrews Square was great. Unfortunately, those were the positive aspects. We had planned for December 30th. Specially ordered a table for 5 p.m. because a 2 or 3 course holiday menu was offered until 6 p.m. When we arrived on site we were immediately informed that the menu would not be available until January, i.e. during the festive season. In addition, a number of dishes were no longer available at 5 p.m. We still found something and were looking forward to the food. However, the food was overpriced as it was just average. What was also annoying was that a 12.5% ​​tip was added straight away. We like to tip when we like something, but here we wouldn't have given 12.5%. In addition, 1 pound is charged directly for a donation. You can then let us know that you don't want this so that it can be reversed. But who does that? Overall, I don't think it's all that good. In addition, my husband and I both had massive stomach problems after eating (despite different foods). Overall, it was a bit of a letdown for us and we wouldn't recommend the restaurant. There are better and cheaper restaurants in Edinburgh.

Great experience again Most appreciated the Service offered by Charlie, very professional and much appreciated the attention on us!

£33.00 For a Sunday Lunch is fine, if it was amazing, but it was shocking !!! Under cooked roasts as in rock hard, beef was burnt and just fat ! Yorkshire pudding was burnt as a crisp, veg was slop. How Gordon Ramsey can put his name to this is beyond me. Really disappointed. I hope he reads this review 💁‍♂️

Diabolical… how Gordan Ramsey is happy to put his name to the trollop that was served to us… they can’t even cook a Yorkshire Pudding!! Terrible food!! Commercial chain garbage. Really bad.

An excellent Christmas dinner was had here. The family loved Gordon Ramsay's place here in Edinburgh and we would definitely return.

Came twice over Christmas for Sunday Dinner and New Years Eve. Both mains disappointed everything else was excellent.

We ordered two beef Wellington but only one came. The other one came later on after our request. Everything was delicious and we were happy after all.

Bread Street Kitchen & Bar offers a stylish setting, but the food is underwhelming. While the flavors are decent, they fail to leave a lasting impression. Overall, the food is fine, but the steep prices make it hard to justify. Despite the renowned name, the dining experience doesn’t quite meet expectations.

Good atmosphere and good service, we ate very well! Thank you so much !

Expected more but still very happy. Firstly I should say that this was a New Years Eve menu that was really disappointing. The steak was offered with no vegetables for example and no vegetable sides to add if fancies. I went for scallops. Both came and they were delicious even though after two bites they were gone. I had the venison sausage and mash which I have to say was disappointing. Limited flavour but the wife had the rib eye which was fantastic but at nearly twice the price of the sausage I would expect as much. The dessert of sticky toffee pudding was lovely and the Xmas pudding was like nothing I have ever eaten before, absolutely epic. Service was bang on.
