I've been to the fountain a couple of times now. The atmosphere is very nice and relaxed, I enjoy the lighting and the mood here for some drinks. The food has always been nice too with a good selection of drinks available. The service can be quite blunt and direct, not rude or horrible, but not nice either, but that wouldn't stop me recommending the place or telling people to go here because its a nice pub ^_^.

My boyfriend and I went to the fountain today for a Sunday Roast, drinks and dessert. We also took our dog, on booking we requested a cozy corner in the bar area as our dog can be a little nervous in new surroundings but appeared very settled. We got a lovely warm welcome from staff and could not fault the food or cocktails. Would highly recommend and will most definitely be back.

We had the privilege of eating our dinner at this establishment. Lynn greeted use and was instantly in control of our wonderful experience. We ordered fish n chips. We are from Detroit, Michigan. The fish n chips we received was just amazing. It was flakey with a beer batter and the chips were natural cut. They do a pea mash which I am not familiar with and couldn’t get down with. But the fish was over the top fresh and tasty incredible. I was astounded by the taste. I only regret that we will be heading home soon and I can’t door dash it! Thank you guys for a great experience.

I was planning to reserve a large table at The Fountain for friends coming from London & Newcastle for the Springsteen show on 30 May. When I telephoned to make the reservation, the staff couldn't have been more helpful. I couldn't be precise about numbers but was offered a high table for 8 plus the flexibility to add more. As it turned out, we needed that flexibility! We were incredibly well-served and looked after. We're all in our 60s and needed the seat as we had 'pit' tickets (standing!) for the show. Most of us ate and had a few drinks - everything was perfect on a very busy day. Service with a smile! I wanted to show Edinburgh in its best light to my friends; The Fountain really played its part. Well done to the team at The Fountain - particularly Lynne (sp?) who I spoke with as we were leaving. All of my friends were enthusiastic about it which really made my day. Before Covid, I regularly went to The Fountain after Hearts' matches and I look forward to returning. Once again, a huge thanks! 5 stars indeed!!

I come here a lot on a Friday,it’s a great wee local with lovely staff but the food is a hit or a miss ! Went for Sunday lunch as a treat today, my what a let down! Potatoes had skin on and in no way was a proper roast potato. Meat had been under the heat lamp so was scarred on its edges. Veg was nice and although Yorkshire pudding was also scarred by heat lamp it was ok. The gravy was unexplainable, it was thin like water with bite of chopped onion and was completely tasteless. I asked if we could have thicker gravy, I was told this was not possible as it came from a big batch, I would assume that thickening gravy was part of a chefs skill( cornstarch and water) but u could not be bothered arguing! Nearly £16 it was no better than an Iceland frozen beef dinner. Such lazy cooking . Avoid!

Recommended by my daughter, I've now been twice. A good alternative to the chain restaurants in the Fountain Park complex. Prices reasonable. I had to wait a while for a friend and felt very comfortable alone there. Didn't notice any intrusive music. Only negative was that no butter came with the large piece of bread with the soup. When we asked for some the amount was pretty measly. Excellent soup with interesting ingredients though.

Great food, great atmosphere, great people, great pints and they allow dogs!. Maggie is pictured below.Went in for after exam pints and relaxation time the staff were very friendly, they let the dog sit with us and it made us all very happy. Cheap pints for students because they have student discounts but even if you are not a student the prices are incredibly reasonable. Food is unreal, all homemade and tastes unreal. Ordered a roll and my mate ordered an all day breakfast and they were both delicious.

Went in for a pint on a Sunday night. It wasn't crazy busy and we got ourselves a table. Good range of draft beers to choose from and a student discount available. Good atmosphere, the pub quizz added a nice touch. However the pub was fairly messy and it seemed like there were glasses everywhere mad the bar was packed with dirty pints as well. Took a while before our table was cleared after the previous visitors. Would have been a five star visit if the place was kept a bit tidier as it wasn't so busy that the staff couldn't have stayed on top of it

No effort made to make up for the extra food wait and to be honest they were keen to send us away when we left. Drinks took forever. Then we were still charged a 10% service charge! Apart from that food was very, very good.

We were looking for a dog-friendly eaterie not too far from the Water of Leith/Union Canal and found this place recommended in the Scotsman from 2017. I'm happy to say it hasn't let its standards slip. Two very hungry and tired humans plus a very thirsty and tired dog found a nice corner table at which to slump. The staff were very friendly and quickly produced a bowl of water for the parched pooch. We both ordered the veggie breakfast which was delicious, generous and reasonably priced. Both we and the dog will definitely be back.

Low quality product for a very high price point. £15.50 for a Sunday roast should offer a great deal more than what we received. All the vegetables seemed pre cut and very standard, Yorkshire pudding was crispy and burnt in areas, worst of all the gravy was salty, thick and poured all over the meal. Chicken and beef were both good but ruined with the thick, poor tasting gravy.

Well I never! I came in during Easter weekend and was hoping for delicious sunday lunch in a quaint establishment. However this place left a lot to be desired. The food was similar to the slop served in the Dickons novel oliver twist and we were offered other tables food several times. We were lefting waiting to get the waitresses attention for ages as we sat quenching with thirst as our table and starving waiting for our garlic bread. The elderly gentleman in the group was not offered assistance into the seated area even though he clearly used a cane and struggled with his right leg. He ended up slipping a bit and the waitresses just ignored the whole situation. When i went to use the restroom the toilets were sloppy and there was no toilet roll!! Such a nuisance.

I went with friends on a Friday evening. We called ahead to reserve and were seated quickly, and our drinks came quickly too. However, we waited at least 40 minutes for our food to arrive. One of my friends ordered the small fish and chips, and it was actually a pretty decent portion size, which she was very happy with. Two of us ordered the cajun chicken burgers and were less pleased. They were DRY. The chips were nice but quite over seasoned with a slightly strange taste and the portion size was alright. All the staff we spoke to were very nice - however, our second drinks order was forgotten about. I liked the pub itself but was slightly disappointed with the dinner. I might return just for drinks. A big plus, however, is that they have a good few gluten free options for Coeliacs like me - nice to see.

Estuvimos de vacaciones en Edimburgo por una semana y el Fountain Pub estaba cerca de nuestro alojamiento. Debido a que se ve atractivo desde el exterior, decidimos ir allí para un "desayuno escocés". Como soy vegetariano, realmente aprecié el hecho de que incluso ofrecieron una opción vegetariana, así que pude probar una versión vegetariana de los famosos "haggis". El personal era amable y nos dieron nuestra comida bastante rápido. El café que servían allí era también increíble. El ambiente interior te hace sentir como si estuvieras en una acogedora sala de estar. Lo hemos disfrutado tanto que decidimos volver para la cena, lo cual también fue genial. Ofrecen una gran variedad de cervezas. Durante la semana, fue posible obtener una mesa sin reserva, pero cuando queríamos visitar el Fountain Pub por tercera vez los fines de semana, ya no había mesas libres. Así que mi recomendación para una visita el fin de semana es reservar una mesa con anticipación.

Visited the Fountain today, not for the first time I hasten to add, their food is usually excellent. Sadly not their best effort today even though the place was virtually empty, (only 4 other diners plus 1 child), it took 45 minutes from ordering to actually get our food! When it did turn up 3 out of 4 of us had extremely burnt food on our plates - very disappointing to say the least as we had looked forward to it all morning. The day was actually saved by the rather embarrassed barman (possibly the Manager) who, without us actually saying very much other than asking how long the food would be, came and apologised profusely on two occasions, saying he was 'mortified' about what had been presented to us, to the point of handing us our bill which he had very generously halved....without us having to ask!! What more can I say other than the gesture was very much appreciated and accepted with grace......bad days happen for sure but what could have been a rather heated situation was diffused in an excellent manner by this young chap's handling of what could have become a very difficult situation. He even presented us all with a rather nice fresh scone, along with butter and cream on our departure. He didn't have to as we were happy with what he had already done. Just goes to show that good things can come out of a bad situation. Well done to that young man....we will go back for sure.

The Fountain is good for breakfast, lunch, dinner or just drinks! There menus are filled with great choices and everything tastes really good. The best part is that they are dog friendly so you can find some dogs hanging around from time to time. Thats a great plus!

This place used to be amazing for food but after it was taken over it is so so disappointing. Great place for a drink the food is really average, nothing exciting- dry burgers and dry beef pies. You'd be better in 'spoons!

Comimos en la fuente en unas vacaciones en Edimburgo. Nos sentamos inmediatamente. Tienen muchas opciones de cerveza, y todos los que tenía eran buenas. Estaban ocupados la noche que estuvimos allí y el servicio era lento. Sin embargo, la comida y el ambiente era genial. Teníamos el pastel de carne, el pescado y las patatas fritas y una ensalada, y todo era delicioso. El tamaño de las porciones son grandes y podría ser compartida. Sin duda volvería a comer allí de nuevo.

Typical burger, quite good pork chop and excellent local beer. Service is okay. There is no disappointment but no "wow" at the other side. So average restaurant.

First time here - service good, lovely clean, inviting, cosy place but our food was so boring - we both had the muffins with poached egg and hollandaise sauce - my husband added mushrooms and I added bacon - thank goodness as if we hadn’t it would have been completely boring- absolutely NO salad at all - about the worst meal like this we have ever had and at around £8 each - very expensive as well - we won’t be back

Tuvimos una cena en la fuente. Estaba ocupado por el fútbol estando en pero tuvimos un gran servicio y comida. El menú de bebidas es amplia y la comida era deliciosa, en porciones grandes y con una amplia variedad. ¡volveremos!

Tenía algunos amigos para visitar y decidimos ir a la fuente para desayuno a probarlo. He estado muchas veces antes, pero nunca para el desayuno. Todos teníamos el desayuno escocés. Fue agradable, mi huevos escalfados fue hecho a la perfección la única cosa que me pareció como los platos eran pequeñas por lo que pagas. Por ejemplo, cuesta 9 libras, pero se obtiene un huevo, una bacon y una bañera minúscula de frijoles. Si usted es una persona que le guste un pequeño desayuno, entonces es perfecto.

Fuimos a un almuerzo de Pascua. Yo tenía un bistec ciabatta y Natalie tenía una cena de carne asada. Ambos eran excelentes. De postre tuve una selección de cuatro postres con una torneo Drambuie y nos encantó. Natalie tenía un vodka doble Grey Goose. Muy buena comida y servicio en un tipo pub bistro

Nos fuimos a este bar en nuestra primera visita a Edimburgo y qué poco encontrar. Este es claramente un lugar recientemente restaurado. La decoración era muy agradable con el bar en un lado y en el otro el restaurante. El Long Bar es el elemento importante. Muy bien decorado, pero el ganador general el personal. Lo que un montón de gente amable. Estaban trabajando duro y claramente todas dieron en

Supongo que si eres vegano, este lugar tiene mucha variedad, pero si eres un carnívoro que no quiere una carga de carbohidratos, no hay mucho que ofrecer. Un tazón de chile con salsa era un tazón de arroz mal cocido con una mancha increíblemente mala de chiles en la parte superior y la "salsa" prometida era un tazón minúsculo de tomate y cebolla sin condimentar. Sin crema agria, sin guacamole y poco sabor. La hamburguesa con queso de mi amigo estaba hecha en exceso, tenía un sabor extraño a curry y el queso era un producto desagradable procesado sin sabor. Y si queremos chips anémicos y flácidos, iríamos a MacDonalds. No está bien.
