Pub food can’t be beaten! This pub offers a wide menu and drinks too. I had the Posh Cow burger which was authentic! The beef was really thick and well cooked through, the bacon add the flavour and the onions were good too. Bar staff was super attentive and kind as well as the chef who brought my food over ( ithink). Good atmosphere with great music on the background. Only small downside was that i had to eat it with cutlery because as soon as i picked up the burger all the fillings went everywhere. Overall I had a really good experience here.

Burgers were best we’ve had in a while. We had the Phat Cow (I removed the Jalapeños before eating but liked just the extra kick they gave during cooking) and also had the Bull burger. Both great. Cooked well, not burnt. Ingredients seemed fresh and very flavourful without being greasy. Seriously well-done. Fries were perfect. Service was generous. Large TV and other smaller ones around for watching sports.

You could see the football game from wherever and with sound on. It was indeed one of the best live sports experience in Edinburgh.

Definitely check this place out!

If you are looking for a pub with a traditional Scottish atmosphere and good food to boot, this is the place for you! Excellent food, beer, service and hospitality. Ian, the manager is the one to look for. He provided very personal service, even remembering the drink I had on my previous visit! I recommend the fish and chips, the steak and ale pie, the burgers and definitely the sticky-toffee pudding! Right across from the Doubletree Hotel and down the road from Edinburgh castle, this one is worth multiple visits!

Stopped in for lunch. With it being Saturday, many tables were reserved to watch sporting events on their multitude of TV’s. At long as you would be finished before the reserved time stated on the card at the table, you could sit there. Grab a menu and order and pay at the bar. Nothing fancy, typical pub food. Our lunches were very good and came out promptly. Worth a stop.

Cozy, tucked away, and just what I needed at midnight after a long day of travel. Service is quick and efficient, food is ready in minutes. If you choose to stay or to takeaway, they keep it easy. The pizzas are all one size, and are probably best described as “person” pizzas, although if you added sides it could be split by two less than starving people. Didn’t try their pasta, but will be back to do so!

I was very excited to sample the set lunch menu at the Palmerston. Unfortunately, it did NOT live to expectations. The first course was 1/2 of an egg with 1 tablespoon of shredded cabbage/celeriac with mayo very poor and the second course was tagliatelle pasta ragu. The ragu lack in flavour and depth, my Italian grandmother would have been devastated. So we paid £21 for 2 courses and it was very unsatisfying. I wish we have gone to a different restaurant in Edinburgh, a pub meal would have been much more enjoyable. Maybe the a La carte is good but because the set menu was so poor that it is very off putting 🤷🏻♀️.
