Don't waste your time or your money. Looks good from the outside but is an absolute dive in need of a good cleaning. Staff are totally disinterested and dismissive. Having seen the very unappealing meals being served around us we got up and left.

Great place for a cheap meal. I had the Caledonian burger which was pretty good. Around £12 including a soft drink.

Great location, and friendly staff. Superb when passing through Edinburgh by train, and 5 mins walk from The Royal Mile. Spoiled only by imbeciles smoking in the beer garden. Staff keep on top of it, but happens. My favourite bit however is the swinging lamp in the downstairs corridor to the mens conveniences. I've hit my head off it every single time I've traversed said location, and it still makes me chuckle 🤣

Not much atmosphere at all poorly designed but it is very handy if you just need a beer and don't have time to get out the station and go somewhere better I think it felt a bit like one of those bars you find in airports, no atmosphere just functional Service want great when I went either a bit matter of fact tbh

Rough, not very clean and very loud. Compared to other Wetherspoons I've been to. The drinks were very odd tasting. Maybe the syrups for the soft drinks was ending. Also the limes used were dried out and decimated. Did manage to find seats on an unclean table. Door man very friendly 5/4/24.

It is located in front of the Waverly train station in a very convenient location with a view. There is a garden and places for smokers (if it doesn't rain) And the price of coffee is much lower than the usual. I don't know about the food, but there are always many people eating or waiting to get food.

Often pop in here, while waiting for our train, as its so handy and much better than the option in tge actual station. It's a typical 'spoons ', so you know what to expect. Great selection of beers, lagers, wines, gins, all at reasonable prices, considering you are in the centre of Edinburgh. So busy, with a great mix of people, giving it a great atmosphere. Will definitely return

Visited here on a Friday afternoon to take respite on a cold rainy Edinburgh afternoon. The Guinnes is good, the heating's on, and the beer's cheap. I found somewhere to hang my jacket over the radiator, ordered my pint to my table, and didn't have to move. The toilets are down in the centre of the Earth but what else would you expect from Wetherspoons?

Not often does a Spoons deserve a 5* rating but the Mixed Grill & mini fish & chips with peas & curry sauce, served at 8.30pm on a Wednesday night really hit the spot - and with the added bonus of a pleasantly quiet & largely stress-free atmosphere to boot.

Perfectly located near the rail station. They serve a gorgeous haggis panini. It's not the cheapest Wetherspoons I've been in drinks-wise, but the service was excellent given how busy it was. Good atmosphere. Screens show train times so you'll know if you can squeeze in another pint.

Weatherspoon is a very affordable chain with a lot of choice on the menu. We were here for Scottish breakfast, which was absolutely fine and good. The atmosphere in the Weaverly branch is nice. There are locals, people from or on the way to work, tourists and even business people. Be sure to put breadcrumbs in the toilet so you can find your way back. Maybe pack a small snack for the march. Otherwise everything was great and a good start to the day.

Had breakfast here before getting train back to London. As ever with wetherspoons, good quality food and drink. Had cooked breakfasts, breakfast baps and toast with marmalade. First experience of the bottomless coffee/tea. Not sure how long this has been provided but a welcome addition to the menu (considering it's cheaper than the high street brand coffee shops). Clean outlet, very busy (best to download and order on the app). Never understood the sticky carpets and full of drunks reputation these places get. I've never experienced it and use wetherspoons all over the country. A great brand that serves well priced food and drinks with good service standards too.

If you are British I wouldn't recommend it. One of the managers, the pompous one in the white shirt, refused to give a drink that my friend had ordered me via the app.... We had had two shots of 6 for 7 of us delivered to the table and ordered £110 of food and drinks through the app and the bar. He said because he couldn't confirm someone had ordered it for me I couldn't have it, I pointed out it would have bee. Ordered by my friends via FB he said no you can't have it.. So she paid and he wasn't willing to give her a refund... When I did prove it was from her via message he still tried to refuse it. His attitude is terrible and later on he nearly got into a fight with two further customers. A member of staff even admitted he didn't understand why he refused me. You work at wetherspoons not the king of the world love.....
