Great beer, great service, cozy atmosphere. The beer was expensive, but only popped in for one so didn't cause too much damage to my wallet.

Came on a Sunday night and stumbled across a fun pub quiz night!!! Very friendly service and fun festive drinks - got the gingerbread one and it was adorable (although quite sweet)! Unfortunately at 9pm they had closed their kitchen and it’s possible they close earlier than the times listed on google. Still, very much enjoyed the visit!

Genuinely one of the best gastropubs I’ve been to. We went on a quiet Monday night, our first evening in Edinburgh. Sam and Freya were so friendly and made us feel right at home with good banter and fantastic suggestions. The meal itself was great. We ordered two burgers which came with a generous serving of salad and fries. Surprisingly good price too. The burger was amazing; juicy, absolutely full of food and cooked to perfection. The kiwi bloke behind the grill knows what he’s doing. Overall I wish we had more time in Edinburgh so we could return - a highlight of our stay! Thanks team!

You can feel that the place is loved by the guests and the staff too. It is in the atmosphere somehow, and that's not a common thing nowadays. That feeling stays with you alongside the memories. They're also not kidding with the food, nor the sizes nor the quality, I was amazed. I just visited the city for a couple of days and finding that place has become one of the happiest memories, somehow being there allowed me to feel what it is like living in Edinburgh. And it felt good.

I’m still not believing what has happened. We were 3 of us just having our burgers and drinking a beer. Due to an accident one beer felt down, no glass was broken but just a menu, with plastic, got wet. First thing first we asked for napkins to dry and fix everything. The girl there brought us something to dry. Then after payed, she got upset with us for the accident and something more. It was an accident, in a bar or restaurant it is frequent. Very bad service. I’m the person who made fall the glass, I’m sorry but you, girl there, are very rude and a very bad person.

Ein nettes kleines Lokal mit sehr freundlichen und engagierten Personal. Es gibt eine große Auswahl an Burgen, auch mehrere vegetarische Burger stehen auf der Karte. Die Proben sind groß und die Pommes lecker (wenn auch recht scharf gewürzt). Die Burgerbrötchen waren leider eher trocken und etwas langweilig.

Cool little bar/restaurant. Staff were very helpful and welcoming. I ordered the Big fat Greek burger and my girlfriend had the the Old blue burger. Unfortunately my burger was dry and overcooked, not much seasoning going on either, to be honest I think I just ordered the wrong thing, my girlfriend's burger was delicious! Slightly pricey also but overall a decent place to eat.

Great service and nice atmosphere. The menu booklet is a mood. We wanted to try specifically the burgers and had the scotsman and the foxy one. Individual elements were fantastic, from the haggis to the pulled pork to the bacon, we enjoyed them very much. We found the beef patties a bit too hard, but they were clearly done like that on purpose, chef's choice,just not to our preference unfortunately.

On Saturday evening four of us came for dinner, three of us had beef burgers of three different styles. All of the beef patties were exceptionally dry, like eating cardboard and with no taste. As it was quite disappointing for a bar/restaurant that specialises in burgers. I explained this as feedback to that waiter and asked for the chef to be shown the beef. No direct reason except over cooking it was given but I suspect that the burgers are bought or stored frozen. We were offered a discount which I refused and explained that the reason for the feedback was to inform the chef of the dry burgers. The reason I have decided to write this review is because on paying for additional coffees, a different, male waiter, after deciding to ask additional questions about the problem with the food said "Well it didn't stop you from eating it all" This is totally unacceptable and an attitude arrogance that I cannot tolerate. Remember we did not accept a discount, the food was paid for by this point. I wasn't aware that being hungry and paying for something meant that you shouldn't eat it even if it was sub standard. The point of a restaurant that specialises is to get better food than you can cook at home, but this is far from the case here. You would think that for a burger joint, the one thing they could do is cook burgers properly and of decent quality. Service was generally disjointed after taking our initial food order, no one checked on us or asked if we were happy with the food. Coffees were brought to the table staggered with three sitting on the counter for quite a wile before being brought over and before our plates and food were cleared. Our main waiter was friendly and nice.

This is a great pub with good food and drinks. I had an amazing burger there and I tried several amazing Scottish whiskys. It’s so nice that this place is dog friendly and people friendly in general. But the real star is Ginie (I hope I remember her name correctly). She helped me choose whisky to try and she was so helpful, friendly and service minded. If I were the owner I would triple her salary, give her the keys and go on long vacation.

I think I’ll come to Edinburgh again to just eat their delicious old blue beef burger! My sister ordered the “Old Blue Beef Burger” which had delicious rich blue cheese, Cajun candied bacon, caramelised onion jam, lettuce, tomato and burger sauce. It was literally a burst of flavours! I’ve never ever had a burger like that. I ordered there veggie “Nacho Average Burger “ which was basically a bean burger with salsa , gauc, sour cream and tortilla chips. It sounds very special but the taste was pretty average . I would recommend to stick with the real meat burgers. They also have a daily special menu for drinks and burgers. I ordered their drink special which was a strawberry and ginger beer mix cocktail and it was absolutely delicious. Customer service and vibe of the pub is also a full on 💯!! Highly recommend this place.

The Haggis Bon-Bons is my favourite, well fried haggis balls and the wise choice of honey mustard in the dish made them even more outstanding. Nachos came in a big portion with fine toppings at a really good price. We also had the Old Blue beef burger, the patty itself was not juicy enough, it’s the accompaniment, particularly the caramelised onion jam, which made it delicious. A good selection of beers available, and we had a sweet cider and non-alcoholic dark ale - both were great and refreshing.

Really lovely staff and service was impeccable - good recommendations for wines and menu options. However, when steak was presented immediately knew it was far too rare so sent back for extra cooking (has asked for medium rare). This was acceptable as it happens but what was the most disappointing was the fact when it was returned it was basically the exact same. For the price we paid, this was extremely disappointing. A real shame as everything else was bang on . Really recommend the scallops.

Tuvimos una gran cena aquí y se lo recomendaría a todo el mundo. Es un espacio acogedor, hermoso. Tuve el mejillones de empezar y que estaban perfectamente preparado con chorizo y sidra. Soy bastante particular sobre carne y hay sólo 2 / 3 lugares en Edimburgo, donde se garantiza la carne a ser una alta calidad, y más importante, cocinados a la orden. Este era un tamaño raro perfectamente chuletón como es posible conseguir. Que se cortó como la mantequilla. El flourless pastel de chocolate delicioso y bastante generosa porción! El servicio era tranquilo y acogedor.
