Booking on a friday is a must for this popular pub. Lots of youg people. Sports are shown on various screens and music that was not necessary to be turned up as it was noisy enough. Sticky toffe pudding was the best and how it should be served everywhere. Toastie was not worth the price. Thick chunks of bread and hardly any cheeze and where was the becamel sauce. Not a place for a nice cosy meal, but if you want to get in the week-end spirit and are a bit youger than us in our sixties, this is lively enough with excellent service.

We arranged a booking for a fairly large party for dinner in advance through email and the section with our tables was ready on arrival. The manager, Darren, made himself known to us and from then on everything went perfectly. Food came out on time and pretty much simultaneously - probably hard enough to do with 24 meals. Food quality was first class, not one grumble from our group that I heard either then or the following day. We sat on for a couple of hours after our dinner and service from the staff was top notch throughout. All in all we were there for about four hours and couldn't fault anything. Located in a good location, a lovely looking bar inside, seemed to very clean as were the toilets. Really couldn't fault it from start to finish - one member of the party is back in Edinburgh in the near future for some farmy festival thing and he said that he will be making sure that he takes his family there for a meal. Can't say much more than that. Highly recommended.

In all respects, this looks like it’s a great drinking spot, but the food really let it down. There was a wait on the kitchen because of the torchlight procession, which is fair enough. The chap behind the bar was very apologetic and explained the situation. He also gave us the nod from our table when we could shoot back up and order. When it came to ordering I was told that they hadn’t had any flat iron steak (or sandwich) available for a while. If that’s the case, I’m not sure why it’s still on the menu, but hey-ho. So we ordered a cheese toastie, and a steak & ale pie instead. The wait wasn’t bad either … but I kind of think it should’ve been longer. The cheese toastie was presented as a whole sandwich of cheese slapped on a plate with some undercooked chips. The steak and ale pie is the worst pie I’ve ever had. The pastry was soggy and anemic like it had been bungled into a microwave, while the meat inside was dry. The chips and peas were both undercooked. I get it, it’s pub food. It’s not anything fancy. But for the price they charge, it should be to a better standard than that of a local social club. Good for drinks, atmosphere, and location but the food I cannot recommend.

Friendly and welcoming service. Ordered the festival burger and it tastes great!The beef patty is juicy and flavourful. Love the salt in the house-seasoned fries, as there are herbs mixed with the salt, making it tastes even better. The onion rings is crispy and good as well. Good food with good price.

The atmosphere here is fantastic and I was incredibly impressed with how clean it was. Side walls, base boards, window sills (the little things, right?) were pristine. The food was top notch pub food; great quality and delicious. The biggest reason I’m taking the time to provide my review though was the guy running the place. I watched him today as he welcomed every single person so warmly, provided information, prompt service and clearly took so much pride in his work. As someone who has spent 10 years in restaurants and 13 years as a flight attendant, I was blown away by the level of care and attention - ten thumbs up, sir. You’re a star!

21212 was such a special stay, one that I'll hold very dear. The location is perfect, on a quiet street overlooking the city, centrally located, right by the beautiful Calton Hill that we took to hiking up at night to catch the stars. The rooms are exquisite, comfortable all around, well appointed, with the biggest and must luxurious bathtub imaginable. But really the highlight was the staff. We had so many good moments catching Katie in the hallway and sharing some stories. Yes, the streets of Edinburgh have their own kind of magic but for us, that's the good stuff, those moments of welcoming and connection. She and Beth made 21212 feel like a home we were being invited into, and only the most special stays achieve that sort of feeling. We look forward to coming again, and would highly recommend.
