Tempting Tattie in Edinburgh, City of

Such a nice food friendly staff I ordered Singh is king lovely service 100% recommendation

Very tasty and rich food. The baked potato was filled with chicken and red onions, as well as other different types of pickled chicken. Price-wise, completely okay. Can only recommend it.

We called in for a snack before heading back from Edinburgh, well, so glad we did. Best potatoes ever, truly delicious, served with a smile just the best. Forget the restaurants get a spud!!

Great value for money and staff were so friendly and attentive as well.

We actually just wanted to eat a little something and saw a sign that said “Baked Potato”. We thought why not…..and it was a fantastic meal which turned into a complete lunch. We would definitely come back if we didn't live about 1200 kilometers away. Vegetarians and vegans will find something delicious to eat here.

A small restaurant. The potatoes taste very delicious and the work is clean. The staff are very friendly and give you the right options. I recommend it to anyone coming to Edinburgh.

Absolutely delicious!!! I think I’m addicted by now ! I truly recommend it as a chef ! Fantastic service ! Amazing smiling faces as soon as you step in ! Food is delicious and fresh always! The only thing I would like to kindly ask the owners , can you pls add more not spicy items to your menu ? Thanks Also the portion size it’s hugeeeee !!! Don’t hesitate to eat there you won’t regret!!!

Super casual place for huge baked potatoes with any toppings you want! £10 for a very filling lunch. Room for about 10 people to sit

Literally the best jacket potato I've ever had. Piping hot with lovely fresh toppings. Fantastic service too. Hubby refused to believe I'd eat it all - I polished the lot off!

Nice hospitality, delicious food and good prices

It is a good place to try delicious stuffed potatoes at a good price. It's not the most spectacular place I've ever eaten, but the potatoes were pretty good and are a different, more homemade option compared to typical low-quality fast food. Of course, the place is very small and I would not recommend it to sit down to eat there, since you leave with your clothes smelling like food. It is better to order them to take away and enjoy them somewhere else. Overall, a recommendable option if you are looking for something quick and cheap in Edinburgh.

Best tatties around highly recommend 👍

Came from Glasgow to visit after seeing them on tiktok. The staff were very welcoming and the food came out very quickly. The portion sizes were surprisingly big and they had lots of toppings to choose from. Food was lovely and will be back next time i’m in Edinburgh! :)

Absolutely out of this world! Amazing food and staff are brilliant. Big shoutout out to the owner Sameed. Legend

Mr Hot Potato is half the price and way better

WHAT A PLACE BTW!!! Had some shopping to do in Edinburgh and stopped by with all the hype, and had to try it out myself after hearing about how good it is! Went in was recognised and welcomed straight away. So got my self a DirtyDiana, let me tell you wow!! The combo between chili chicken con carne with mac&cheese finished with crisp onions, WOW! Each bite even the skin was getting demolished. Full of flavour, portion sizes was perfect to full 1 person, I would have had another if I had to 😬. The staff was spot on and gave me a few recommendations so many more to try in future. Boss man was Sameed, bless him regardless of it being busy was a top man and having a laugh with customers. Couldn’t recommend this place more will be in more for sure 10/10 alll round 🥔😍

Been to this place a good few times now must say it never disappoints👌🏽 Everytime I go in I always get a warm welcome from the staff who are very kind and helpful , the atmosphere is always buzzing here and the decor really lightens the mood bright and vibrant They always offer complementary salad , sauces and crispy onions to put on top of your tattie which I think it’s a brilliant touch for us customers been here now 5 or 6 times and I must say best in town great value for money also can’t wait to be back!!

Great food, very nice people running it. Would recommend splitting 1 portion for 2 people, as the portions are huge and very filling. It's a little small with basic tables and stools, but that's why it can be a better price :)

Amazing food, staff, and value!

We drove to Edinburgh from Glasgow to try this place after seeing it on tiktok. The potato was absolutely delicious with a great variety of choices and the whole menu is halal which was great! The woman who served us made the experience too, she was very friendly and welcoming😊

So yummy and Great big portions

Absolutely delicious ! Serving size was generous as well. Enjoyed the meal.

Friendly worker and really nice. The portion seems to be little, but at the end it will fill you quickly

Amazing potato, plenty of options and huge tasty portions of fillings.

Amazing food! Best tattie’s in Scotland for sure 🥔

Top drawer tattie. Will be back soon

Loaded Baked Potatoes, the most tastiest filling and best baked potato I have ever tried. I went for the Singh is King which was homemade channa masala with red onion , peppers and sweet chilli onion bhaji. For all the veggies out there. My partner had the Iron Mike which is Honey chilli chicken , cajun chicken , onions and Sams signature sauce. So many different fillings to pick from and tables to eat these baked potatoes inside. Lovely staff inside too , definitely recommend.

Amazing value and quality, great service. Best coleslaw we’ve ever tasted and the mac and cheese was brilliant, good portion sizes.

A great warming jacket potato to fuel sightseeing in Edinburgh.

Very good, freshly made. Very full, there is a lot of variety

They serve roast potatoes and sandwiches. There is not much space to sit. There is no bathroom for clients.

Massive portions and quick delivery. Very happy

Didn't feel like the typical tourist restaurant offerings. The baked potato with beans and cheese was very good. Simple food with a fast food atmosphere. Perfect for in between

We tried this place during our visit to Edinburgh and it was so delicious that we got takeaway for the journey back home. There were a lot of options both for filling and the salad and the portion size was really good!

Not to miss when you're visiting Edinburgh!

Food taste very good and excellent service music maybe too loud

We looked for it online and it had very good reviews. Being Sunday we looked on Google Maps and on several websites and everything was fine. However, upon arriving at the site after walking for more than half an hour we found that it is closed, due to construction. We are very disappointed that nowhere does it say that it is closed and it is a shame, because it looked very good.

Baked potato was amazing and they have lots of options to chose from, didn’t have to wait long for the food either

We ordered the tikka and the cajun chicken both with cheese. Great flavor, service and price!

Quite an advertised place so I decided to stop by. Interesting but not very varied menu.

A bit pricey for a potato but amazing location, portion size , very generous toppings, fast friendly service is what you get.

Tasty baked potatoes. Loads of different toppings, very filling

Yum!! I highly recommend!!! Unusual, delicious) huge portions!!

It really is all in the name "Tempting Tattie", located within a short walk from the train station and just off the Royal Mile, it's certainly a hidden gem amongst all the other small cafes in the area. It is all down to earth, no frills... just straight baked potatoes and toasties without the need of being fancy! Staff are always so friendly/bubbly and with the large amount of fillings available, you can't go wrong with any combination. The tatties are slightly overpriced but for being Edinburgh and in an ideal location, you can let them off. If you are looking for a quick bite to eat or something to takeaway, don't hesitate to be "Tempted by the Tattie!"

It's a shame there are very few seats and a very neglected environment, because the food is excellent and plentiful with really low prices. Good choice of fillings to garnish the potatoes with.

Lovely wee place with lots of choices and friendly staff. Would definitely come again!

Best Baked Tattie going. Found this place through tik tok and it was a great find. Myself and my family went on our family day out in Edinburgh. Great value for money for the amount, quality and location. We got 2 baked potatoes. One tuna and one honey chilli chicken and one cheese and onion tostie. It wasn't your normal toastie with 2 bits of bread but instead a sport of baguette style. Please see pictures below to see portion size. The seating in this cafe is very cosy but the place use the space the best way they can to get as many seats as possible in. Staff are all very friendly and would highly recommend.

Great food! Tastes amazing and it's so worth it for such a cheap price! Lovely service

Too good, I forgot to take a before picture

Best Jacket Potatoes in Edinburgh👏🏼

Perfect spot to grab a quick bite. They also have what is probably the best Avocado toast over had since coming to the UK.

Food was really nice and hospitality was good and we enjoyed it.

We’ve been wanting to try these so we ordered today and they were even more amazing than we expected, packed carefully and arrived warm.We were a bit skeptical for the price but it’s literally a full meal, worth every pound.

Quality food. The bloke there were super friendly and so helpful. He couldn't do enough for us. Definitely going to eat here again when we're back in town.

Food was delicious and very filling. Very friendly service.

Perfect place for an exquisite dinner, complete and healthy food, excellent quality-price, 100% recommended

It was my first stop in Edinburgh, but unfortunately it wasn't a happy choice. The potato with the cold fillings did not meet my tastes, and I found it difficult to digest. My Italian palate is probably more demanding, but I think there are better alternatives in the city. Terrible hygiene!

Great portion size, yummy egg mayo filling. Service speedy and friendly.

Very delicious and friendly stuff. Not too expensive

Delicious jacket potatoes, with a huge choice of fillings. Great value for money and friendly customer service. Ideal food to warm you up on a chilly day, or a good meal to fill you up before a long journey from Waverley. I visit every time I come to Edinburgh and it never disappoints.

Brilliant! Quality customer service and lovely food!

Nice and quick, you can even try toppings before ordering if they are new to you

I ordered the potato with tuna and mayonnaise and it was delicious.

It's delicious The store owner is friendly.

Small shop where they serve excellent baked mega potatoes to which you can add various types of toppings and a mountain of cheese. The staff is really very friendly, the place is small so at busy times it is difficult to find a place to eat inside, but it is worth trying. Prices in line with the city

Excellent place for a meal while you get to know Edinburgh by walking. Potatoes are amazing with any filling. I would return a thousand times. It's a delight. Mandatory stop for everyone visiting Edinburgh.

Very tasty spuds. The "singh is king" was delicious 😋 thank you

Delicious and served with a smile. Perfect ❤️

Spectacular idea and completely different menu. One of the most striking and delicious things I've tried

The portion sizes are crazy!! They give you so much for your buck. Highly recommend

Perfect lunch on a wet, cold day. We got the Mac daddy and cheesy beano and were very pleased with the amount of food, price, and taste. Would highly recommend!

Delicious!! We have been seeing these types of potatoes all over TikTok and it did not disappoint.

The best baked spuds you'll eat! Good old-fashioned soul food. You won't leave disappointed.

This is a gem in Edinburgh, delicious, satisfying, cheap food and very friendly service, highly recommended 👌👌

Excellent bean and cheese potato, and the owners are fun!

Absolutely amazing tatties. My son had a cheese panini too and that was absolutely amazing. I had chilli and cheese and it tasted unreal. Will defiantly be a regular

nice little spot for a baked potato nice and hot and cheesy on a cold day! the guy running it is a hoot even though he made fun of me for getting sour cream with beans

Super yummy! Generous portions! Fun atmosphere!

He does something similar to baked potatoes. I ate Mac Dad, Mac and Chessli was good. Portion is too big

I returned to tempting tatties after 2 years. My previous experience was poor. The potatoes served were brown inside and the owner/server at the time was very stingy with the fillings. What a change this time round. The potatoes were great, filling was generous. Will return again with more people. Price was high but fillings made up for it.

i loved the hospitality. i didn't know this culture very well, i asked for help and they helped me a lot. perfect for snack and tastes were delicious. i most certainly recommend it. i ordered patato with mac and cheese. my only suggestion was that the pasta was a little cold, which slowed down the melting of the cheese a little.

After two days of eating on the royal mile it was so refreshing to eat a simple but delicious baked potato and a falafel 😊

Great food in a relaxed atmosphere 😋

Nice respite from the royal mile. It’s just half a block off but much quieter. There is a deli showcase with all the various ingredients you can get on your potato. Got a Chana masala topped potato and it was delicious. Great midday snack that is way more interesting than coffee shop cookies and brownies.

A very British-style roast potato place. Wide variety of combinations to accompany your potato

If you are tired of processed or fried food then this is the place for you. Tasty baked potatoes with a wide range of fillings or sides. Room to sit in, or great to take home.

Small place at the end and in a cross section of one of the main streets. Highly recommended baked potato menu. Mixture of countries or flavors. Although almost everyone goes to get takeaway food, there are four tables in the premises. Nice atmosphere. Attentive and fast served. Each dish costs about 9 pounds or so but with a stuffed potato you eat very well

a bit stingy with the beans. two fork fulls and it was done

God och stor portion bakad potatis med valfri fyllning. Chili gon crazy var en favorit. Vi besökte dem som familj och alla blev mätta och nöjda.

Very tasty baked potatoes with a lot to choose from. Not overpriced like many other restaurants here - of course not the kind of atmosphere that makes you want to sit there for several hours. But perfect for a meal in between! The two of us paid just under €20 for a drink and we were full.

Amazing!!!! I really loved it ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Super tasty! I came back to Edinburgh to finally really enjoy this masterpiece. I can only recommend it to anyone who is nearby and their stomach is rumbling. For around £8 you get more than one kebab for that amount.

The BEST baked potato I’ve ever had. The Iron Mike is the best with fresh and spicy chicken, delicious sauces and a generous amount of cheese, not to forget the most fluffiest and soft potato aswell. Would definitely recommend eveyone to come and enjoy this hearty baked potato!

Amazing food, lovely combinations and an onion bhaji topping that is worth a trip to Edinburgh for!!

Great discovery! It's a change from what you can find in the rest of the city. Plus the managers are adorable! Go for it if you like potatoes!! 😁🥔

Absolutely delicious baked potatoes! Very generous servings and served by delightful staff.

Amazing little joint, which serves great baked potatoes. Their toppings enhance the flavour. Perfect for a snack or lunch. We loved the hospitality too. Only suggestion would be to heat up the toppings as the baked potato is hot, but the fillings are cold.

I absolutely recommend it! Authentic place, very kind staff and good food!

The owner( I think) was the kindness person ever! So attentive and friendly making our visit 10/10! Supported with which filling to choose on our baked potato, he also threw in a free cheesecake with our order - which was so nice. Our baked potato’s and cheesecake were so incredible and so tasty. Would recommend and will be back! Amazing food and customer service

Great lunch spot! Good food, kind staff, and reasonable prices. Perfect after a long tour of the castle.
