Was part of a hearse and attended a wake at this establishment for Richard mowat let the staff know I was there for the wake and they said fine as I was not in a bay but to the side getting chased for £170 parking fine absolutely outrageous. They said since I didn't buy a drink I have no evidence but I don't drink I was provided with free coffee and food at the wake it's a disgrace having to be threatened with court no regard for people dealing with loss. I spoke to the Asian girl and she said it was fine.

Nice little place. Friendly staff. Good drink and food selection. Only downsides are doors make a lot of noise in the morning downstairs and strong smell of the downstairs toilets. Good bus route connections to Edinburgh and lots of shops nearby.

Faulty Towers at its very best. Ordered two large breakfasts at £9.95 each a tea and a coffee. Waited a long time and breakfast finally arrived we were both famished. Looked at the plate no sausages 😧 oh dear they must have forgot. Spoke to the waitress who said ‘ oh dear how did I miss the sausages on the plates they’re so big. Another waitress came and said ‘ we’ve no sausages so he gave you an extra bit of bacon’. The original waitress returned saying ‘ he said he’s no sausages but can give you an extra bit of black pudding. We just looked at each other and said no thanks. The pointing my review is I’ve never been in a restaurant where the chef runs out of an ingredient but doesn’t even tell the customer 🤷‍♀️ just assumes they won’t notice and then pretends to put extra on the plate. ( which he hadn’t). Had we not mentioned it no one would have said a word. Waited ages to pay walked from the restaurant to the bar twice, rang the bell still no one. Eventually a waitress arrived and took the money. We were given the tea and coffee free. To be honest it was more laughable than anything.

Good food at fantastic prices, staff are friendly and helpful. With the addition of the huge sliding windows the dining room is hugely improved, benefitting from what was a dark, claustrophobic area into a light and pleasant eating area.

I was looking for somewere nice to take my son for lunch yesterday and seen that The Ravelston had a deal on 1 adults meal purchased, kids eat free. On arrival I was told it was selected meals only and there was a small menu available for kids. My sons portion was small, I could have got a larger burger or meal from a fast food restaurant. My macaroni was bland, tbh it tasted like a can of macaroni and parts of it was slightly warm, the rest was cold. I was very disappointed 😞 On a positive note, the waiter was friendly and the service was fast. But I can honestly say, we won't be back anytime soon for food.

Went for father's day meal, and definitely was not worth the money. We where seat for about 10mins before they even asked if we wanted to order. They took a starter order but no drinks. It took about 10-15 minutes for the started to come out and still had no drinks. Finally when they took our main order it took about 30 minutes for that to arrive at the table. We were all disappointed with the portion size. These where more of a kids size portion than an adults. To pay £17.85 for a very small steak pie and chips is a joke. £2.95 for a kids fruit shoot also a disgrace. Don't get me wrong the food tasted nice but was definitely not worth the price. I will not be back here.

We stayed at ravelston house for 3 nights when visiting Edinburgh and had a Lovely time. The rooms are cozy, yet modern. The dining room and breakfast was also to our Liking. Special shout out to vinnie who took care of us every morning at breakfast. He whent above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and he gave great tips on restaurants and cocktail bars that were vegan friendly. The only slight downside is the distance to edinburgh, but there are very frequent buses that leaves from just outside the hotel.

Terrible service! Sought this place out as it was dog-friendly and visiting Musselburgh for the day. Bar waiter with glasses and tattoos couldn’t have cared less when we asked how to order. I asked for a water bowl for the dog and, as I was carrying two glasses of drinks outside I was told to come back for the dog bowl, no help. Ordered our food and two starters came (one of which was wrong but took it anyway), no cutlery, napkins or condiments. Had to go find someone who said they bring them. Waited until our food got cold, no one came back so ate with our fingers (scampi and spring rolls). Food was fine. Mains arrived, still no cutlery or condiments and were told by same barman that we’d have to go inside and pick them up ourselves! Luckily a younger barman spotted what we needed and was happy to bring them out to us. I complained about the service to the first barman/waiter who said nothing, no apologies. Afraid we won’t be back.

The breakfast was good and the waitress was very polite, however, the night we stayed, there was live music until 23PM and I get it, it's a pub downstairs. But when one of the staff started hoovering at midnight, I lost the plot. I didn't expect to pay £125 to be unable to sleep at midnight because of someone hoovering. I've never come across this in any other accommodation I've stayed at. I am definitely not going back there.

We stayed overnight in this lovely pub. Check in was easy, just straight into the bar and was given the key. We stayed in Room 2. The bed was huge and comfy. The heating was on but not needed so easy to turn off. Not much view from the window but not really bothered about this. Enough storage and mirrors to get ready. Tea, coffee and biscoffs available in the room. Used the shower, impressive! Spacious shower with complimentary shower gel to use. There was a large group of us for meals, a variety of foods. We choose a selection - chicken balmoral (I had this, it was lovely!), steak pie, fish and chips. There was a wait for the food but we were busy chatting to notice too much 😁. There was a great singer entertaining us for the night between 8-11pm with a selection of varied songs which was lovely. There is a function room which was in use on the night. The only thing I'd say is that before, interval and after the show the bar was packed (not sure if there was a bar in the function room). Sometimes there was a long queue for the bar. Breakfast was outstanding and you could tell the meat was from a butchers. It was a great quality. The haggis and black pudding was the best. Overall a great place to stay and would highly recommend!

Our son and his partner booked the function room for our grandson’s 1st birthday party, the room was freezing cold, we had to ask the manager to switch the heating on 3 times, he eventually did around an hour after we arrived & he had a lot of excuses as to why it wasn’t on each time we asked. I found his behaviour very odd & unhelpful, really not sure what his issue was. The heating then went off again half way through the party, it was very bizarre as the heating was on in the rest of the hotel. The Ravelston charge £75 for the hire of the room, this should more than cover the heating costs & I would have expected the room to be warm for us arriving. The buffet was very good & the majority of the staff were lovely, so 3 stars for that, I doubt we’d hire again because it was so cold

Arrived at 2.55pm for 3pm afternoon tea and we were informed that we were too early! Agreed to seat us. It was 2.31pm before any food arrived, and that was only because we had to chase it up, and the tea was already cold. They were not busy as the lunch service had finished and no food had come out of the kitchen after we had been seated The sandwiches were adequate and freshly made, the scones and brownies a bit dry and stale, and the other bought in items uninspiring.

I basically don't write reviews, but on this occasion I felt it was necessary. How disappointed I was with my latest dining experience at the Ravelston. I am very sad to be writing this review. We haven't been to the Ravelston since the summer time. We used to dine there quite often but recently we haven't had a chance to go. You could say it was our 'go-to' restaurant in Musselburgh due to its friendly, cosy atmosphere and lovely staff, and the food has always been enjoyable. We decided to return for a small family celebration and we had been praising our past experiences to friends that very day. We were really looking forward to our meal. Sadly we were so disappointed. My husband ordered the calamari and we ordered two haggis bons bons starters. Approximately 3 mins later the starters arrived, as if they had been on standby. The calamari priced just under £8 for 7 rings was oily, soggy, luke warm and chewy. The haggis bons bons were also soggy and luke warm. The fish and chips were ok, but the fish was not up to its previous standard, which I had raved about that day being just as good as East Coast's fish for it's freshness and crispy batter. But the worst thing was the duck with cabbage and sweet potato puree, which I was so looking forward to! It was like eating a jam pudding - overly sweet and sickly. The kids who were with us had the pizza and chips. OMG! Last time the pizza base was hand made and tasty, and a fair size for a child's portion priced at just under £8. This time, we could see the pizza base was the ready made base you buy for cheap in Lidl, and the cheese (if it was proper cheese) was a funny colour for being mozzarella. It just slithered off the pizza in its entirety as the kids took their first bite, burning their wee chins in the process. Lots of chips, but the pizza was a portion for a 3 year old. Basically we couldn't wait to get the bill and leave. We were planning on having desert but we decided to skip it. The staff were really lovely and attentive, but they sadly didn't take on board our comments and report them to their manager. Maybe they did and he/she didn't bother. We were honest and voiced our disappointment about our meal, but the bill in the end was fully priced, so evidently our clear dissatisfaction didn't matter. Ravelston - what is going on with you? Ravelston you are going down hill, which is so sad as you have such potential! Please review yourself and get back on track, as we would really like to return, as we have had so many pleasurable dining experiences with you in the past. Wishing you all the best x

Had the haddock and chips, very dry and not a lot of flavour. £18. Wife had Macaroni, it was fine but the salad wasn’t edible, it was old. £15. Mother-in-law had chicken curry, the spice level wasn’t labelled and it was very spicy - had to down two glasses of water and couldn’t finish it. £18. Three disappointing meals. My wife was also brought the wrong meal with no apology, the waitress acted like we were inconveniencing her by asking for it to be corrected. Wouldn’t eat there again. Very average food, if not below average, for a premium price.

Had the unfortunate task of organising a funeral for a loved one recently and we chose The Ravelston for the function after the funeral. The team were fantastic and very supportive throughout the process. The venue ticked all our boxes and there wasn’t a single issue on the day. The staff did a great job catering for our 100+ guests and the price for the event was great value compared to other venues nearby. Thanks again to the team for making the day go so smoothly.

When I contacted Ravelston to ask them to sort it out they basically were not that interested and told me to deal with Britannia Parking and I should have noticed the signs in the Car Park. Fair dos, thats the type of establishment you are dealing with. Classy customer service.

Having been born and bred in Musselburgh, and had my wedding reception at the Ravelston, albeit some time ago, we decided to have lunch in the restaurant. Had to wait about 5 minutes before we got attention, then another few minutes before we were pointed to a table and “yous sit there”. Not a good start. In the time we were in the restaurant, to me, it was obvious that there wasn’t any staff training on customers relations. No politeness, no courtesy, not interested to see if you were enjoying your meal. About the meal, it was quite pleasant, except for the Eton Mess, which we were told was the chef’s sweet. The sweet arrived up in a tumbler, with a large spoon. It comprised of only thick cream, tiny piece of meringue and loads of raspberry sauce - not appetitising. I always thought that this sweet comprised of ice cream, cream, raspberries with pieces of meringue and slight decoration of raspberry sauce. Stupidly we didn’t ask for it to be deducted from our bill! I am so so disappointed about the lack of customer service from this long established hotel. Won’t be back.

Starter & main were average. The trifle was not edible, I'm not sure it could even be called a trifle. One very rude server, the rest were lovely. Won't be rushing back. They were very busy but they shouldn't take so many bookings in future.

£3.26 for a coffee come on 😡. I mean 2 coffees in your bar cost me £6.47 and it took ages . Also coffee was rubbish and how do you divide £6.47 into two equal parts ?

We had a great family lunch here. Twenty of us, for my mum’s 85th birthday. The staff were lovely and so accommodating, especially as some of our party were quite late. Nothing was a problem for them. Food, service etc all first class
