The Holyrood 9A in Edinburgh, City of

Delicious halloumi burger! Highly recommend the sticky toffee pudding.

Had a really great experience here! Our waitress Salina was amazing, super friendly and did her job really well. The atmosphere was so cozy with warm lighting, really nice and chill. The food came out fast and everything was really good. Definitely recommend this place if you’re looking for good service, a cozy vibe, and great food!

Scottish Breakfast and coffee was just what we needed after a hike to Arthur’s seat. Breakfast starts from 10am. Excellent food and service.

We arrived here following recommendations for a great burger place where we can go with kids and it did not disappoint: good location, very friendly staff and gorgeous burgers. I had the Scottish one and it was really good, also a good way to try huggys for the first time. Kids menu is also available, together with a good selection of drinks and cocktails for adults

Easter brunch was delicious! Our server, Sadie, was friendly and attentive. Great mocktail and burger!

Visited multiple times - always happy with the selection of craft beers, especially the rotations. Has a slighlty sophisticated atmosphere and nice staff.

Delicious burger, great chips, interesting beers, super friendly service, reasonable prices. This place is a gem. Will recommend and return.

Very nice atmosphere, delicious food, excellent selection of beers and attentive service.

Really nice pub with great selection of beers! Amazing burger! Really tasty! And the staff was super friendly and hepfull!! A must try!

La hamburguesa era perfecta! En realidad lo mejor en Edimburgo! Muy buen pub con personal muy amable y servicial! ¡Debo intentarlo!

Great burger spot, lots of veggie/vegan options including beyond meat burgers. Tonnes of beers on draught but also great cocktails. Super reasonably priced too!

The burgers are very good, the portions are right, the place is British style. The only minus is the lack of good lattice beer, and the selection of beers is large. Salima a very nice waitress

The burgers 🍔 are delicious and the staff is very attentive. It is also a very nice place with good music. I recommend it 100%

There was a great and diverse selection of brews from the tap, many local. The food selection was also quite good, with some suitable Scottish-esque meals such as a haggis hamburger. I visited in mid-February when it's cold and dark, some factors which the pub unfortunately hadn't countered, as it was a bit chilly and where I was sat most of the light was coming from the building across the street and through the pub's windows.

Burgers were average and a 45 minute wait for food on a quiet Tuesday lunch time

Ενα καλό και τίμιο μαγαζί, κυρίως για burger. Καλό περιβάλλον και καλή εξυπηρέτηση και με πολύ λογικές τιμές. Αξίζει μια επίσκεψη

The burgers here are amazing. What really made us happy was the customer service and how friendly they were to families. A combination of good food and child friendly place is a rare find in Edinburgh nowadays.

Staff was very welcoming, in spite of our 3 young kids :-) We spent a very good moment there, enjoying the food (tasty burgers) and the beer, in a nice, cosy and friendly atmosphere. Very good.

What a find walked past this place numerous times . It was cold out so decide to give it a go . What a find...the place warm inviting . Food what can I say . . The chips best I have ever had ...hard to describe them . Go find out yourself . The beer selection is something for everyone. Had the original burger woooow. Flavour was amazing...to compliment the burger. The side coleslaw ..it's was the best I have ever... tasted , flavour you can't fault it. Best find to-date.. definitely returning. Keep up the good work .highly recommend this gem.

We were here for drinks. Delicious cocktails, fast service and a throwback playlist - what more do you need

Good selection. Plenty seats, not comfy seats but plenty of them. Faor service and nice and warm. All round a fine experience.

Food excellent.. lovely chilled spot.. bar staff great too

The Holyrood 9A estaba cerca de nuestro hotel y, lamentablemente, lo probamos el último día. ¡Qué pena no haberlo descubierto antes! La experiencia fue excelente de principio a fin. Las hamburguesas y el postre estaban riquísimos, con ingredientes de calidad y una presentación muy cuidada. El servicio también fue de diez: nos atendieron rápido, el camarero fue muy amable, y el ambiente era perfecto, relajado y bien cuidado. Si estás por la zona, no cometas nuestro error y no esperes al último día para visitarlo. Sin duda, un sitio para repetir.

Old school pub with modern atmosphere

These guys do the best breakfast in total comfort. Best pot of tea in Scotland....

Had a break here, huge beer options (you can taste before you order -I was looking for local ales, the super friendly bar tender helped with advice) I didn't get food so I can't rate this... The atmosphere is very nice...

Estuve en este bar / restaurante muchas veces cuando visitamos Edimburgo. Normalmente tenemos nuestro perro con nosotros, ya que este lugar es extremadamente agradable para los perros! En esta ocasión no tuvimos nuestro perro. La comida es genial, es sabrosa comida de pub siempre bien presentada, los precios son buenos. El ambiente es muy relajado y el personal es muy amable y servicial. Gran ubicación también.

My husband and I stopped at this cosy little pub to have a drink and a snack. We ordered the haggis bon bons and the hummus and olives with flat bread. Both were absolutely scrumptious. I ordered a glass of Malbec and my husband did a whisky flight. William was our waiter and he was incredible. Highly recommend for service, food and ambience.

As a tourist to Edinburgh, I was shocked about the under 5 rule that doesn't allow youths in lots of pubs. But Holyrood 9A has a changing table and allows under 5s. While I was there multiple issues with plenty of kids were eating. The food was great and the drink selection was nice

Nos unimos a algunos amigos que habían reservado una mesa para la cena y el personal estaba encantado de alojarnos también. Buena selección de hamburguesas y cervezas / vino. Fue por la hamburguesa haggis y la hamburguesa vegetariana haggis - ambos deliciosos. Buenas opciones vegetarianas y veganas. Las papas fritas son como cucharadas para que puedas juntar la ensalada con ellas. Recomendaría para comer algo en el centro de Edimburgo.

Amazing burger. Very good service. Great music. If you need gluten free menu, it 's the paradise : gf tap's and delicious burger.

The burgers here were excellent and there was a great choice of beer on tap. I had one of the Whisky flights and the little tasting note card made it a brilliant choice. It was Dog friendly and the waiters were really nice and friendly too

Walked in on a whim and had some delicious food and fantastic service. The entire staff were warm and welcoming I appreciated their attention to detail.

Very nice atmosphere, some good service, but the burger really is quite bad :/ I was there a few times back 6-7 years ago when i lived in Edinburgh, i think their quality has very much declined!

Lovely burgers and salads. Nice staff and a pleasant and cozy background. You can eat here with children, which is a plus. Reasonable price.

Great spot. Yummy food, delicious cocktails, friendly staff, and a cosy ambience.

always fabulous, great selection of beers great food, great staff,

To drink a beer or have a burger I recommend! Burger ~ £16

Wee drink before and after dinner, nice place

Nice pub with a cozy atmosphere, outside the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh. We discovered a nice beer (staff let us taste a few beers), the cocktails tasted good and we even tried fried pickle. Recommended!

A wonderful surprise. A very relaxed and cozy pub to drink and eat something (and stay away from the royal Mile crowd)

Fantastic food and lovely staff!

Delicious burgers and a cozy atmosphere

Great place to visit for food and superb selection of craft beers 🙏

The restaurant serves mainly hamburgers, but there is a big variety of options. The waiters were extremely kind and helpful. The atmosphere inside was really special in my opinion, the only thing I could complain about is that the meat was a little burnt, but still it tasted pretty good.

Great burgers (it is mostly burgers), service was good, and the ambience was nice. We had two quieter nights there, but it was really enjoyable. Dog friendly, too, which was brilliant

Everything was perfect, food, service... Note the kindness of our young waitress... Great

Great value for money, great staff, and the food was 5*. It's definitely worth eating here.

Very nice beer and burger place. Even have a kids menu, which is great for a pub. Lots of options of beers on tap. Food was actually really good, and value was spot on.

Very welcoming pub with a family atmosphere. Classic wooden furniture, you eat and drink every hour. Very good burgers. Friendly and pleasant staff

'wide range of 25 Craft Beers', expected a wide range of craft beers but was disappointed as most are common beers you can get at many pubs. Erdinger, Madri, tenents and Pauliner and not craft, a rough calculation would say 10 craft beers. The place was warm, staff were welcoming, food looked good.

Food was okish. Service a kind of slow.

Fantastic wee pub - great selection of draught beers including sours. Nirvana played at their sister pub 'the Southern' - but they couldn't be arsed heading to the grassmarket.

I went to Holyrood 9a with some visitors for a meal and such a shame the burgers were so poor. They were dry, bun quite stale, (tasting like few days old), overall not very tatsy. I used to live in the area few years ago and visited the pub frequently then as the burgers used to be good. Good for beers, not good for food.

Just popped in for a drink. What a lovely bar, great selection of beers and much bigger than it looks from the outside

Still my favorite place for burgers & beer. Not to overrun. Try the pioneer burger!

Great burgers, tasty beers and top notch service.

Food was ok, service was definitely not with a smile, couple people in the group made jokes about it and the table behind joined in.

Cosy vibe for a drink and tasty burgers!

Lovely burger spot, and great local drafts.

Still great burgers at an affordable price.

Bun could be a bit better, rest was very good.

Great selection of beers! The burgers are very tasty (I tried the cheese and bacon), although a bit dry. The regular fries were great but the sweet potato were a bit soggy. Feels very cosy inside, especially on a rainy evening. Very dog friendly! The waiter brought our dog a water bowl and a little plate with treats immediately after we sat down.

Excelente hamburguesa y buen trato del personal. Pedimos tb unos nachos, pero lo realmente destacable, fue la hamburguesa y el ambiente. Sitio muy recomendable y precios normales para la ciudad.

Very good burgers. We've been disappointed a few times over the last few days, but not here. The meat is fried to perfection, chic garnish and also good beer. My vegi Haggisburger was exceptional and tasted absolutely fantastic.

Super grumpy staff. They have the greatest time together. The employees are extremely unfriendly to the customer!

I really enjoyed the original burger (without the sauce since it contains alchol), nice service and nice cozy place, great thanks to Salima for her great hospitality and help The food is delicious and the atmosphere is nice inside the restaurant I ordered the Origal burger from them (without the sauce because it contains alcohol), and it was delicious and the service was fast. The employee, Salima Marra, was helpful and helped me choose halal food

Extraño ambiente para el pub y no en un lugar que se sienta bienvenido a pasar unas horas. El personal es muy eficiente, por lo que si quieres tener una comida y una bebida rápida este lugar es para ti

The buns in the burgers were directly from the fridge. Apart from that, they were tasty

Very friendly staff. Excellent cuisine

Went for breakfast, the food was in good quantity, quality and reasonable pricing compared to the local area. A nice looking pub/bar, my friend liked the coffee. Would recommend

Nice moody atmosphere with a great selection of beers on keg or cask.

Visited last night after a festival show. Thankfully we remembered to book. First time , very impressive. Staff were amazing . Friendly welcome. Made you feel welcome and wanted throughout. The food was excellent. I had the Holyrood 9A Burger which was packed full of flavour cooked to perfection . Great value My wife had a BBQ version also superb. Drinks normal town prices. Will definitely be back. Highly recommended.

Really relaxed and comfortable bar. Great vegan burger with proper chips! 😁 Fab beer choice .. too many good ones to choose from!

Vino a almorzar tarde entre shows de Fringe. Gran bienvenida, ambiente estupendo, camarera excelente, y SUPER DELICIOSA COMIDA!

The team here was knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed the burgers and even the Haggis. It was great, especially on a rainy day.

Huge selection of beers with many on tap. My favorites are the Peach Melba Sour and the Tempest Long White Cloud. Had the Haggis Burger and Bacon Cheeseburger. Haggis was delicious, the beef on the other burger was thick and a tad dry but overall had a nice time there. My American taste buds just may be picky about my burgers, so give it a try regardless of my review.

Nice place for lunch. Good hamburgers especially the haggis one. Very polite servers. I recommend.

The staff were fantastic, great to talk to and incredibly helpful. Will especially, he made it a memorable and personal experience that set the bar high.

Great neighborhood pub with amazing selection of beers on tap and excellent, friendly service. Highly recommended.

Very nice pub. Great range of craft beers and excellent burgers.

Excellent, spacious pub with a great selection of food and drinks. The food tastes and looks too good. Good selection of beer. Friendly staff, clean and spacious space.

Great burgers, strong tap list of craft beers - came for dinner then a full Scottish breakfast the next day

Delicious and relaxed atmosphere.

Reasonable food and friendly staff.

The food is good, and the environment also good, with the typical pub style, this is a medium restaurant in terms of quality-price.

Good pint in a good pub. Decent burger.

The place is nice but the hamburgers are nothing out of this world, they disappointed us, and the meat was overcooked.

Burger are good with many alcohol choices

Nous nous sommes arrêtés dans cette brasserie suite aux bons avis que nous avons pu lire et franchement très déçus. Nous avions commandé deux bières, la mienne était chaude, ce qui n'était pas agréable du tout. De plus, nous étions placés dans un endroit très exigu alors que le restaurant était loin d'être plein. D'ailleurs l'emplacement était tellement exigu et pas pratique, qu'au moment de nous servir, la serveuse nous a fait tomber de la bière sur les vêtements. Concernant la cuisine, nous avions commandé deux burgers et deux desserts, rien d'exceptionnel, les frites étaient froides et le haggis très gras. Des restaurants bien meilleurs et moins chers à quelques pas seulement. Malheureusement, je ne recommande pas.

Top! Had a veggie haggisburger, it tasted great and the side dishes were also very tasty - clear recommendation 😃

Had a wonderful bbq chicken burger which had cheese and fried onions, delicious.

Lovely burger place. Visited with my daughter and friend. Prices are reasonable by Edinburgh standards and plenty of choice.

Really good breakfast! Fine ingredients well cooked and friendly staff. Highly recommend

Cool atmoshere and attentive service, sadly the burgers were subpar, dry buns and patties. Cocktails were great tho.

Nice little place; quite busy. We were feeling a bit under the weather the day we stopped in, so the option of ordering small servings of beer was appreciated.

Great burger and great craft beer. One of the few places that had sours but they also had a great varied selection. The manager even allowed us to taste other selections from the draft as well. The entire staff was friendly, Homey and comfortable.

First time there - a lovely, reasonably priced, house white. Quirky place - I will be back!

We found the drinks really good, the food absolutely mediocre to bad. The burgers were boring and the fries simply didn't taste good. The ambience was ok. Somehow everything seemed a bit dingy. I'm sure there are better burger places in Edinburgh.

We were last here three years ago - and unfortunately we were a bit disappointed. The burgers are still OK, but they used to be better. The food as a whole was a bit bland. The service is still very friendly.
