Leith Depot in Edinburgh, City of

Very enjoyable meal with very helpful and efficient staff

Lovely place, nice atmosphere, good service, would recommend

Solid pub. Good food, good pints of tenants, decent whisky and beer selection. Cheesy spicy chips always go down well.

really good food, meat & vegetarian & vegan options, friendly staff and good atmosphere. Sometimes a bit slow bringing food but not an issue

Panini and soup combo was tasty! Great value and friendly helpful staff.

Place frequented by locals. A little dirty. Good choice of beer. Cocktails failed. Probably due to the chlorine in the water used for ice, the cocktail was undrinkable. Unfriendly staff. Aesthetically less nice than other pubs in Edinburgh.

Always a good time with good vibes and brilliant staff

Super place to see bands , good choice of local beers.

Food portions are huge and delicious! The staff are always friendly. Decent selection of beer on tap, but not overwhelming. It can get very busy as it's a small venue.

Leith Depot is an absolute gem in the heart of Leith! The cozy, relaxed atmosphere makes it a perfect spot for a casual meal or a night out. The menu is simple but packed with flavor, focusing on fresh, seasonal ingredients and offering a variety of dishes that cater to all tastes. The food is consistently excellent, with standouts like the juicy burgers, fresh seafood, and inventive vegetarian options. The staff are warm, friendly, and attentive, making sure you feel welcome throughout your visit. Whether you’re enjoying a leisurely meal or grabbing a quick bite, Leith Depot is a must-visit for great food and a laid-back vibe. Highly recommended!

Proper local Bar represented by sound folk who work there. Their wee gig venue next door is a treat. Check their gram for Live Music/What's Oan @leithdepot138

Very good, plentiful in a friendly atmosphere. I recommend.

Great place, food was delicious and service was friendly and fast. There was also a show right next door in their venue room which was a great surprise, would for sure recommend! Also they have great vegetarian and vegan options!

Popped in to dodge a downpour had a quick pint of Paulaner interesting menu nice vibe and live music we will be back!

Rustic, cozy pub, nice service and a cozy atmosphere. Make a reservation if you want to do the pub quiz. Cool event location! Felt very local!

Very tight and poor beer selection.

Good food! Cheesy fries were amazing and the fish and chips were good as well.

Mimi is lovely. Quality, price and environment relationship meet all expectations. Just a small problem unrelated to the place: at the next table there were some Spanish women speaking perfect English and they thought we didn't understand them. This is what we Andalusians have, that we do not need to spend half our lives abroad because we are understood everywhere.

Brilliant place, never disappoints! Staff are very efficient and kind!

Nice location. We were there during Fringe, attended a comedy show by Five Mugs, No Tea, very funny.

Amazing food, big portions. The staff are super nice, making everyone feel welcome. It's a great place to visit!

The best Fish & Chips I've ever eaten and delicious beer.

Staff are so friendly, food is great, portions are generous and reasonably priced. The ozzy guy with ginger hair is very nice!

Did not have food. Small but friendly pub.

Had drinks before a gig in the venue area. Lovely place for a drink. Didn't eat but meals coming out looked great. We'll worth checking out!

My son recommended this and so pleased he did. Will definitely go back and already spreading the news. I would say the fish and chips are best in town. Friendly staff and lovely surroundings. Next time will take photos.

Would I call this a gastro pub? Based on the cheese burger definitely not. I've passed this place many times but popped in with my partner for dinner for the first time this week. Lovely vibes and friendly welcome. Staff attentive and polite, great drinks selection. Food menu is good too, what you would expect from a pub. My burger was a real let down however, mainly due to the small and cheap but significant element: the bun. Dry, flakey, low quality... Please buy better ones... The fries were also quite mediocre. My partner's chicken burger was tasty and juicy, and he got cheese sauce as an extra, which they didn't charge for, so that was very kind!

Absolutely luvly little place with good beer A nice atmosphere The food looked tremendous and unfortunately I didn't have time to sample but it looked good

The veggie burgers are better then the meat. Not an easy feat to pull off. Great selection of Beers, great non alc options, very welcoming to everyone. What more can you ask for?

Good more craft led place, several drafts were very much local.

Nice little venue, was in for a gig and the atmosphere in the room was great. Very small but still felt nice. Could have had comfier chairs for the gig though.

Awesome pub with super friendly vibes.

Bloody delightful. Reasonably priced, gorgeous outdoor seating, delicious food nice venue for niece auntie time. Felt like bars of the past (nougties growing up in Bradford). Would recommend!

Had a fantastic lunch at Leith Depot. Burgers were full of flavour and sides packed a punch. Nice atmosphere and reasonable prices. Very friendly staff. The battered haddock burger with beer battered prawns was brilliant!

This is a fine little gastro pub. It's good for a pint better for grub, an excellent menu for you to peruse, fill up with scran before consuming the booze.

Place: Small space and tight quarters but a nice spot overall. Service: Super friendly staff, very accommodating - our whole crew commented on it afterwards just how sweet the servers were here. Food: Excellent - the halloumi and avocado salad was perfect. I had the Korean filthy chips, likely wouldn't order that again as they were more of a wedge / bigger potato pieces. Not bad just not what we anticipated. Prices: Well priced, especially for the quantity and quality. Conclusion: Nice restaurant that I would absolutely come back to.

Walked in asked for a table for a party of 5 (seen empty tables) was told they were full, seen a seating area outside to which I asked could we go there , answer was then they weren't actually serving food. Ridiculous Maybe they didn't like my Irish accent ?

Great spot fir a pint and scran

Great music venue. Totally recommend.

Was here for an event then a late lunch. Their function room can perhaps comfortably house 30 people at most. It can get a bit stuffy, even in the winter months. On a Sunday, their kitchen may close at either 3 or 4 pm, check with bar staff. Also you probably want to reserve a table as the local demand varies. On the day friends and I decided to stay for a late lunch, staff were accommodating even though our numbers changed a couple times. It wasn’t busy though, mind. I went for their veggie breakfast with scrambled eggs. Even though it took a while to arrive, it arrived hot and nicely cooked. I particularly enjoyed their veggie haggis. Will be back to try other things on the menu. Friendly service.

The food here exceeds any expectations of pub food. The Syrian aubergine dish is out of this world, and it goes very well with the halloumi avocado pomegranate salad. Super wholesome, filling, delicious and beautifully colourful. Lovely meal and also lovely staff who are friendly and chatty.

Brilliant wee bar/venue.. One of Leiths finest!

Mac and cheese was great. So was the fish and chips. Generous portions.

Very refreshing pint of Tennants .on very hot day

Great boozer, lovely staff, put on some great music too. We saw these bands play, The Bucky Rage and Los Coyote Men

Very good, very friendly and kind welcome, generous plates!

Great vibe, super friendly staff and excellent food. They have local Leith beer on tap 👌

Such a gem. The Mac ‘n’ Cheese is super good. Staff were really nice, chatty. Good local beer selection.

Great venue for gigs. Bistro separate from the stage and hall.

Good place to see a band although I was a bit too warm due to a sell out show. I'm sure that will be easily fixed though. Highly recommended.

Great music night good food lovely staff lovely jubbly

Went in for a bite with the missus, had a blast. Really lovely staff, just need to go back for the live music!

Nice wee bar for a chat and a pint

Endroit conseillé par notre hôte Accueil très sympathique ,nous y avons diné 2 fois ,les serveurs sont très agréables et laisse le temps aux frenchies de s'exprimer. Le fish and chips est excellent et copieux, les salades également

Fantastic service fantastic staff and best burgers in Edinburgh ! Leith Depot is a must! Very lucky to have this is a local in Leith

Dropped in here to see music act. I don’t know if it was the house PA system, but wow, what a great sound! Afterwards, we sat in the bar, where they had a great selection of beers, and there was no shouting at us to leave when the bar shut. We were just left to finish our beer and chat, which was such a welcome surprise. Another of the highlights were the seats at the bar tables. I won’t spoil it for you… See them for yourself!

Was in Leith recently with a few hours to kill so popped in here for a bite to eat. Lovely! Nice atmosphere, great food, good prices, nice beer!

Always enjoy a quiet pint in here with my bestfriend before the rush of the weekend. Lovely bar with lovely staff, perfect place to play some cards and enjoy good company

This is the bar I liked the most during my short stay in Edinburgh. The welcome is warm, the staff is really friendly and caring (My english is not perfect), the food is very good (Halloumi and Avocado Salade) delicious, the beer selection is incredible. I was happy to discover this bar as a French person traveling alone. I will definitely come back on my next visit. Merci :-)

Quirky and cosy pub. Went to hear a band in the small venue.

We used the function room and it was great for the occasion.

I hate to pile on when they are having a bad day but as soon as we sat down we were warned that there would be a wait for the food, the place was not busy at this time so we expected the wait would still be acceptable. About an hour after ordering we were told that their oven had broke and several of the meals were no longer available so we had to reorder. It was 2 hours after arriving that all the meals were served, none of the sides arrived before we finished the mains. That being said all of the food was really excellent. I highly recommend the Firecrackers Cauliflower. The experience was a 2/5 but the food brought my overall rating to a 3/5.

Great dogs and kids friendly pub with a lovely vibe. Lots of local beers on tap. Wonderful menu at reasonable prices. Music venue next door showcasing local acts.

Vibrant ,warm and welcoming. Drinks are greatly priced , loved the comedy show that is on first Wednesday of each month. Can't beat great atmosphere with great comedy acts here ! Definitely visiting again x

Great for beer, food (good vegan choice) and live music

Delicious food and great selection of Leith beer. The staff was very friendly, they made us feel comfortable and we enjoyed discussing with them the choice of food and drinks, we tried a bit of everything and it was all amazing. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try!

Busy and not enough staff on, but good food.

Best fish and chips I've ever had! I'm 57 and have eaten a lot of fish and chips over the years. Portions are massive and the staff are great. Glad it's just around the corner.

One of the best places to go for a drink in Leith, good food, cracking deserts. The music venue is a much needed boost to Leith's entertainment offerings.

Everyone’s smiling and enjoying their time here. This is a place you can settle down in and enjoy every time. Great food!

Nice pleasant bar, good service

Lovely local feeling bar with a real mix of characters, all felt at home and relaxed in this friendly bar.

Great little boozer for anything from live music, quizzes, comedy, and decent grub.

Always a favourite for food but have been blown away by the Christmas menu! I would challenge any sprout hater not to fall in love after having them here. Couldn't fault a single thing- thanks so much!!

Cozy place with yummy & cheap food. Staff is super friendly!

Live stuff happening most nights

Great place for gigs and beer. Didn't have food.

Great fun space, a little crowded when we went, but amazing vibes. The gig we saw was awesome and had some good drinks too.

The pub food is delicious. Their macaroni cheese is actually cheesy and not just made with cream. Big fat chips. Delicious.

It was my first time in the Depot for a music event. The Wee room was good and the sound was amazing. I never had time to sample their food menu.

Great independent bar, great food & service. Also a rare music venue in Edinburgh & Leith.

Maybe because the kitchen was about to close, but the food came out cold and wasn't very good, even for the fairly low price. Great place for drinks, though.

Lovely staff, brilliant food and atmosphere

Nice bar, nice beer, nice atmosphere

Fantastic bar/music venue with a great selection of drinks and tasty food!

Food pretty good; service pretty poor.

Really cool pub. Loved the comedy night it was hilarious. The host Viv Gee is so funny & lovely. Ideal if you want a chilled out comedy night with loads of belly ache laughs!

Wen for dinner after looking at trip advisor reviews BUT the pictures of the food there do not exist on the menu at the bar. Menu had changed we were told. Not the staffs fault if trip advisor has old pics but surely someone has to step in and make it current Staff were excellent, atmosphere nice but the new menu was not really for us although we did eat there as were hungry and ready to eat. Burger was fine (but not what i would typically order) and my wife's dish was quite nice, a vegetarian aubergine dish. So it certainly was OK but ultimately a disappointment based on what we had traveled to experience

Called in for some food and a good pint, got both. Really delicious fried chicken and fries, with other good looking food coming out of the kitchen. Good range of local beer on tap to accompany.

Nice pub with local beer options

Lovely place warm welcome, great food loads of it, & quirky we place

My dish was delayed as server forgot to order it.. when it did come it was delish.

The food was fine, but lacked a bit of taste. The drinks were good, the service was perfect and the pub quiz was the best part!!

great vibes, amazing staff and the prices are good. and you can check some local bands as well. highly recommended!

Brilliant FREE comedy show and wonderful food

Nice cider, food was good friendly staff and free comedy

Une table de qualité dans un décor sympa

Muy buen sitio para disfrutar de unas cervezas y comer algo rico. El precio es muy bueno y nada excesivo. A la noche hacen shows, los camareros son muy amables y atentos.

Friendly, casual, great food. Cauliflower bites and beer battered pickles were the highlights.

Excellent food and great atmosphere
