Really cool place, nice attentive staff and a nice all-round vibe. Food was lovely (Mac & Cheese with Sriracha & blue cheese fries and a beef burger with haggis and peppercorn fries) and the drinks were just as good. Will return 🙏🏼

We went for lunch around 3pm after a beautiful walk along the seafront. Well heated, welcoming, very clean and tastefully furnished environment. Also welcoming and smiling staff. Clean and warm bathrooms. We had two beers, a vegan burger and a vegetarian burger which were accompanied by chips. I would say everything is good. Balanced quality-price ratio given the environment and atmosphere. Perhaps the portions should be slightly larger given the prices, but I would go back for the overall experience which left me happy and satisfied ☺️☺️

My partner and I had dinner here on our first night in Portobello. We both ordered burgers—my partner chose the halloumi burger, while I went for the beef. Both were delicious, but the halloumi burger was the standout—definitely worth trying (especially with Monterey Jack cheese!). If you’re looking for a warm, cozy spot with candlelit dining, this is the place to be.

Apart from the exorbitant prices for a pub, the dessert I tried was really a joke: advertised as a gingerbread cheesecake, was in fact a gingerbread biscuit with some cream cheese on top of it. 7,5 pound. Unbelievable.

2 parejas comieron aquí en una noche de sábado. El lugar estaba muy ocupado, pero sobre todo debido a los bebedores. Pedir el cóctel de cangrejos de río era una broma por £ 9. 00 . Tres lechugas dejan un chorro de mayo y una pequeña cantidad de cangrejos de río. Como si lo hubieran arrojado al plato. El pescado con papas fritas era promedio ya que el pescado estaba demasiado cocido y un poco grasiento. Otra vez 19 libras por esto y agobiante. El personal era amable y atento es todo lo que podía decir. Nunca volveríamos por comida mucho más restaurantes / bares de calidad para comer que aquí.

Food was tasty but portions were fairly small for the price. Wouldn't be an issue but we got the roast and the gravy portion was genuinely a thimble full. Asked if we could have a bit more and the waiter sheepishly informed us more gravy was £3 per portion. Absolutely nuts to charge that much for what would cost them pennies, definitely a disappointment after a decent meal.

Our Sunday roast was delicious although one of our party had a couple very grisly and largely inedible pieces of beef. This was really unfortunate as the rest of our meals were lovely. The staff listened to the complaint and offered an alternative which was accepted and appreciated. All in all, once this issue was resolved, it was a very enjoyable experience although we had to wait a long time for coffees at the end of the meal.

I recently visited Guild of Foresters and had an overall pleasant experience. The service was wonderful—everyone was lovely and attentive, which made for a welcoming atmosphere.We decided to try a few different items from the menu. The popcorn chicken was decent, but the portion size felt a bit small for the price. While the taste was nice, the size was a bit of a letdown. We also tried the beef and fish tacos. Both were enjoyable, though I felt they could have been a bit more flavorful. That said, they were still a nice addition to our meal. The highlight of the evening was definitely the dessert. The white chocolate mousse with whiskey was absolutely delicious—a perfect way to end the meal. The drinks we had were also great, especially the mocktail, adding to the overall experience. Having been here before, I know the food is usually decent, and this visit was no exception. I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu!

Nice bar/ restaurant, quaintly decorated which gives a good atmosphere. The chicken burger however was very dry. It was made with plain chicken breast which is very healthy but was a bit bland. There wasn't enough in the way of sauces on burger or taste variety. Was told fish and chips was very nice though. Wasn't a great variety on the menu. Desserts were good ! All in all , the food wasn't up to it's price tag, Also if you're looking for a family meal whereby you can have a chat this place is not place to go, soo noisy, especially when the live music comes on.

We were there on July 12th. The atmosphere was lively and nice, Pellegrino from the can was well chilled - everything else was a disaster. Infinitely long waits for our food. No matter how hard we tried, we couldn't find out what the soup of the day was made of. Chips sticky, peas undercooked and cold, tartar sauce hard like herb butter. Conclusion: never again.

Oh dear, several major errors with our lunch, but no offer of rectification. Ordered the £50 steak for 2 which comes with 2 sides and 2 sauces. We ordered salmon & prawns and 2 loaded fries. On the menu, the salmon starter states it contains avocado oil, in fact it came with a thick base of avocado sauce. I am allergic to avocado (ok with oil), so I was unable to eat it after the first discovery mouthful. I have had stomach issues for a few days now. The prawns were almost raw, but tasted good. The steak came and was cooked well, however we were served an incorrect sauce. This issues previously highlighted was with the additional charges that staff failed to mention mentioned, nor are listed on the menu. The loaded fries had an additional charge of £3.50 each on the bill and the salmon starter with the unlisted avocado an additional £2. So the steak for two, was actually £59! The loaded fries were an astonishingly expensive £7.50 each and came in one of those cute little buckets. Shockingly overpriced and a miss by Foresters where they could easily have been seen to be generous at very little extra cost to themselves. Also had the baked halloumi, which was acceptable. Was very nervous of the green drizzle that this was also unexpected avocado. The pomegranate seeds looked anaemic, which gave an overall unappealing appearance. The waiter was apologetic about not asking for allergies, when queried the bill was told about the surcharges, not a nice surprise. Rather disappointing visit and not handled well by the staff.

Edit [05-2024]: After multiple visits last year we took an unintentional break and returned in April 2024. We were left very disappointed. The menu has changed, but not for the better, as most starters are now deep fried and the black pudding & scallops starter no longer exists. The burgers have also been altered and ALL burgers now come with rocket instead of lettuce. As one of us despises rocket (which is a somewhat common preference) we ordered a burger with lettuce instead. Whilst this was originally approved by our waitress, we later got word from the kitchen that they had no lettuce left. After studying the menu closer we couldn’t find an item that requires lettuce, so there is a chance that it is generally impossible to swap the rocket. Without a green leaf, the Forresters beef burger was rather boring and not worth £16. The Chicken burger has received additions such as a haggis and peppercorn sauce, and whilst this fits rather well, the sauce is runny and might burn your fingers when trying to eat. Unfortunately the chicken is no longer breaded, which was something the previous chicken burger had perfected and what made it so amazing. So again, overall a downgrade. The upgraded fries, such as haggis and peppercorn, are still worth a visit but we will be much less enthusiastic about dinner here and have decided to deduct a star. As a side note, the breakfast menu has also been altered. It is no longer an option to choose a small or large full breakfast, as mentioned below. The only option appears to be the larger one. Original Review: We visited the Foresters Guild after walking past many times. We certainly regret not visiting earlier. The restaurant is really nice. The booking online is generally easy although it would be helpful to see a map of the restaurant when booking, as the bar area is actually bigger than the restaurant area, however, food is served in both sections. Our first visit to the Foresters Guild was for dinner. We had the pan seared scallops as a starter (to share), and the Spanish Chicken burger and Foresters Beef burger as the main. The food arrived quite quickly. The starter was incredible with the black pudding being really juicy. Whilst the chicken burger was the best chicken burger we’ve encountered yet, the beef burger was overwhelmed by a rather big and dry brioche bun. On a later return visit the brioche bun was much fluffier and suited the burger better. Overall, a smaller brioche, or an alternative bun such as ciabatta or pretzel might be a better fit. The real highlight however were the Foresters Fries. We opted for the Truffle & Parmesan fries and the Haggis & Peppercorn fries. The Haggis fries were a bit messy to eat, as you can imagine, but really flavourful. The Truffle fries are good when craving something lighter and simply heavenly. We would definitely recommend trying either of these and will come back for these fries alone. We returned for breakfast and chose the full breakfast with the option for extra pieces. The sausages and bacon were outstanding. Some of the best bacon we’ve had, and we’ve had a lot of bacon in the past. The black pudding was also very good. The Haggis on this occasion was rather dry and certainly would not have made Robert Burns’ “Ode to the Haggis” proud. But overall it was very filling, worth the price and we will definitely come back to indulge. The restaurant is clean and the servers are nice, although nobody stood out in particular and all interactions were kept very short. The menu also allows plenty of options for vegan and gluten free requirements, without limiting options for people without dietary requirements. One of our celiac friends thoroughly enjoyed the restaurant as well. Overall we were very happy with our visits and will certainly return in the future.

Came here for the Sunday roast, which is beef rump with carrots, potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower cheese. The meat looked good but I did get quite a few unpleasant bites of sinew, and the vegetables were ok. I also had a pint of IPA which I couldn’t finish because of how flat it was. My partner had the chicken supreme. Again, it was ok, but not worth around £17 for a plain chicken breast with 3 potatoes. Probably won’t be back.

Waitress was very good and happy to alter order a bit as i didn’t want skinny fries. Food arrived promptly and was a good portion size. Burgers, black pudding and chips were all great. The burger bun tasted stale, was very hard. Shame as everything else was good. Would happily return as think the bun issue would be a one off.

This very unassuming place was awesome We were shown to our table by a very pleasant young lady as it was fairly busy. Good choice of food and drink. Nice cold lager and my partner opted for a white wine. There was something for everyone on the menu My partner opted for a burger which was massive and very tasty. I can't go to the seaside without having fish and chips this didn't disappoint Fresh fish with delicious crunchy batter and freshly made chips. This was an unexpected surprise Food Service Atmosphere We shall return the next time we're in the area.

Fair enough but no hurry to get our mains. Food was ok but we were past it by the time the food came. Reviewed this on their internal system and the manger wrote to me and said he would talk to the staff about it and get back to me. 9 days later no contact.

Ho ordinato "lamb shoulder" ed era davvero molto buono, non una porzione molto grande, ma notevole. Birra buona, peccato per il dessert, ho preso una crema di cioccolato bianco ma non era granché, anzi... agnello superconsigliato, crema no. Prezzo giusto, carino il beer garden esterno con le casette e le stufette.

We were four adults, two small children, one baby and a large dog having an early supper in one of the Beach Huts. The staff were amazing, looking after adults, children and dog with equal enthusiasm. The food was excellent, reasonably priced and speedily served by cheerful and enthusiastic waiting staff who really went the extra mile making a memorable experience for the children, an enjoyable one for the adults and a relaxed one for the dog. We would go back in a heartbeat.

The servers could not have been more welcoming and very attentive to mine and my daughters needs. Good modern selection of food, that was all very reasonably priced. We did not have to wait long at all for our meals. Everything we ordered tasted great. Friendly atmosphere. We will definitely be back. Our only problem is going to be choosing what to eat. There are so many tasty dishes on the menu.

We were a party of 6 for the Sunday roast lunch and we were very impressed! Lovely hot and freshly made food and excellent service, very attentive and friendly. A lovely setting by the river and cycle path so a nice cycle out from the city. Thanks! Had a great time.

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.
