Friendly staff member James and others always with a smile and very helpful. Cheap soft drink, beer and food. Try the Nachos Best in the city with a cold glass of cola. Very spacious indoors and you can enjoy a beverage at their sitting area located at the back and front of the restaurant. Several TVs so you can always watch the football or rugby. 10/10 best restaurant / pub in the Morningside area.

We have been coming here for years and the big thing for me is the tables are never clean to the extent that i bring my own wipes and clean the table first. But to my amazing surprise wow Chris was going around in The Merlin Morningside cleaning every table as people left. Go you chris and long may it continue

"Tried to watch the Six Nations here after seeing it advertised. Walked into a moderately busy pub and were immediately asked if we had a reservation. When we said we didn’t, we were told we couldn’t stay—despite plenty of standing room. Staff claimed we would be blocking fire escapes, though the place was nearly empty. A baffling way to treat potential customers. The three of us would have happily stood and had four or five pints each. Disappointing experience—wouldn’t recommend. I’ll be sure to share this experience with friends and others in the community and encourage them to visit more welcoming establishments.

This was our first trip to the the Merlin and I'm sorry to say we were very disappointed. The staff were friendly and helpful but the food was appalling. We paid £10.29 each for Chicken Shawarma which was basically a supermarket bought cold, hard flatbread with a meagre helping of what was supposed to be the turkish chicken delicacy. Save your money and go for the real thing to La Telve across the road. Perhaps more standard dishes like scampi or fish and chips would be better but if it's on the menu, at least provide the real deal. Also the menus were greasy and sticky so no points for hygiene. We won't be back.

I can't imagine this place getting any worse. Went for lunch, asked at the till for some lunch deals, manager told me that everything was on the menu rudely. I asked him where because I couldn't see the deal that I was asking for and I did have 2 menus with me. Manager came with a different menu, told him that menu was not on my table and he rolled his eyes. Asked for 2 kids pasta, 1 baked beans, 1 garden peas and 2 bread, manager didn't do anything, after repeating several times my order in different ways, manager told me that was not what I started asking. I told the manager that I wanted 5 things that according to the menu could go together, I didn't care how he put them in the till. All I wanted was 2 kids meals with side and veggies, 5 items so far, the items were always the same. Manager complained that I ordered differently. I was fed up with his attitude and told him that his job was to put my order in the till, and my job was to order and pay for it. I didn't care how he put it in the till as long as I got my items. And it's not my job to tell him how to do his job, putting the items in the till. Manager found the excuse not to serve the foreigners after been so rude from the beginning. Worse place every

Update: in for a burger this evening and the quality is back up to where it used to be, thank goodness! Thank you Green King! I will be back regularly now. And the service was fantastic! Sadly this place has gone downhill fast. The food used to be good and I used to come here fairly regularly as I am local, but no more. I ate here about a month ago and the hamburger was the worst I have ever had. I came here again last night and thought I'd try something different, so I ordered the chicken burger, and it was the worst I have ever had. Felt like I just threw my money away on crap. Everything now appears to be frozen and precooked like you'd buy at a cash and carry. Low quality, bland and overcooked. The only thing going for this place anymore is the beer, craft ales and a fairly nice atmosphere. Otherwise, there are far better options in the area for food.

Having tried a few of the morningside cafes and not finding anything to suit my vegetarian / pescetarian friend, we decided to go to The Merlin for fish and chips. Hadn't been for a while and were disappointed to see it looking quite sad and neglected. However, we ordered our drinks and fish and chips. The food came in good time and was delicious. The fish was fresh and not greasy. We both thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The staff we saw were friendly and we were served immediately. On speaking to the manager we were told that there is a refurbishment planned for the very near future. We look forward to returning next time we're in Edinburgh .

Served by one of the rudest staff member. There was no pleasantries at all. She proceeded to give us a warm bottle of Prosecco with two dirty wine glasses. No flutes apparently! Then when it came to paying for said warm fizz she said in a very rude way “cash or card” to which my friend responded with card. The said rude bar member then just walked away and served another customer. We didn’t see the chip and pin machine and she didn’t point us to it. Which in my experience happens. We then assumed that perhaps she was setting up a tab. We walked away and sat down with said dirty glasses and warm fizz. Then she came over and rudely said “you haven’t paid” . Then the who I can only assume was the “manager” if that’s his position then I can see the why the staff are so appalling as his standards and clearly low. He rudely came over to us with no apology about the mix up, simply defended his rude staff member. When we asked why the Prosecco was warm, he advised the fridges weren’t working properly. No apology whatsoever. So in summary it’s filthy inside, staff are shocking. AVOID!

Absolutely horrendous, 25.07.24 I was there for dinner with my 92 year old father, he had a bandage on his head, the barmaid did not listen to him nor give him the time of day as many older people can expect. The manager Kyle fixed the order, but when it arrived it was still wrong. I went into the kitchen as no one was available to fix the problem, the dishwasher ushered me out and found Kyle the manager outside, Kyle eventually came in but started clearing a table next to ours, I called him over and told him the Pepper corn sauce is missing, he repeated again and again, did you order it, I assured him my father did and then he kept saying you will have to pay extra for it, meanwhile our steaks were getting colder, so I wrongly and in the heat of the moment told him where to go. He returned after we finished our meal and said you have 10 minutes to finish your wine and leave or he will call the police,and that i am banned from the Merlin. I understand upper management have problems retaining good, professional mature staff, it's their uncaring long term legacy. My father said his steak was tasteless though it was twice the size of mine and mine looked and tasted like it had been boiled. The staff conditions are awful, the staff were uneducated children, Do not eat there. Peter

Been a few times, the food is very good and the highlight of going. Even better getting student discount off food and drink. However, trying to get served at the bar is a pain as it always feels under staffed. We have also booked a table online for the football with food and they tried to place us on a small high table next to a pillar which couldn't see one of the TVs. The toilets are really not pleasant as well. Plus, there was a dj who was trying to play music and do his set while everyone wanted to watch/listen to the football.

This must be the worst pub in the country. The service is awful. I waited for 10 minutes for my first drink which was bad enough. There was only one bar tender around. And there was a large group of twenty or so folk in. Ordering my second drink was even worse. The large group were placing their huge order and the sole bar tender was clearly struggling. I waited with another customer and then the bar tender simply disappeared. No staff there at all and another 10 minutes! He did eventually reappear and I asked him if me and the other customer, who was also anxious, could get served. The bar tender said he had to do this big order first. I said so you’re not serving us then? He said I’ve got to do this order first! Unbelievable - he could have served us our couple of drinks first before the big order. I’ve never been refused service like this anywhere before. Absolutely disgraceful in a capital city. And the toilets were stinking!

Phoned up earlier to book a table and was told over the phone that they “don’t take bookings, it’s first come, first served.” So we still decided to come much earlier than we wanted to ensure we got a table to find most tables had a reserved sign on them. I asked the bar man Ross why I was told they don’t take bookings over the phone and instead of an apology i was told “that’s just the way it is,” while he smirked away to himself. Won’t be back. Shocking and rude service towards their customers. Shame for a local pub.

2 previous visits to the Merlin I had enjoyed the Seniors Menu" very good value for money😀. On this occasion I was given scampi chips n mushy peas as per previous visits- only this time the portions had decreased by 40%- when I asked the bar tender that this was a lot less than previous times - his reply was " I must have been over portioned on the previous occasions- then mumbled something about new management and this was the correct portion size- price was the same as before, but its a very deceitful ploy on the new management part- also asked for a pint of tap water with a shot of lime cordial and was charged £1.90 - the previous time for the same drink was 90p- it seems you are reeling in customers with the value for money food - to only go and give half size portions 6mths down the line- I was incredibly hungry afterwards as the neal was so meagre ☹️☹️

I went for lunch today with my wife and son I can honestly say that it was one of the worst lunches we have had in a long time. My wife ordered fish and chips it looked over cooked but it wasn't the oil had not been changed for a long time you it taste burnt from the oil. My son ordered a chicken dish wich was a bit dry and also a very small portion. I ordered scampi with chips and peas, it was terrible the peas looked like they had been sitting on the hot line for a while the 8 pieces of scampi i got was not very good and seemed to be from iceland and served with 11 chips, I had to check to see if i ordered a Childs portion but i hadn't so all I can say is we won't be back which is sad because we stay local. Even for pub food it was very disappointing. Unfortunately a very poor lunch for such a nice part of Edinburgh.

My friend and I caught this place on a super quiet Sunday afternoon (last time we were in it was HEAVING!). it's got such a lovely, chilled vibe and awesome, fascinating decor. The staff are super friendly and helpful and the FOOD.... omg the food!! 🤩 It's become my go-to bar for a quick drink OR a Sunday pub lunch! LOVE IT 🥰

Came last night for dinner with my family. We got a warm welcome the menu was varied and something for everyone. I had the chicken skewer with feta salad I have to my favorite meal I have had in a very long time. Everyone else also really enjoyed theirs as well . The coffee and mini pudding was a great recommendation.

Excellent little cafe. I went for a large latte and also a BLT. The latte was spot on and sugar was provided separately. The was served on white bloomer toast with cherry tomatoes, lettuce, mayo and some very, very tasty bacon! This sandwich came with skin on fries and a salad with dressing. The food and drink were amazing to the point I was doing a happiness dance while eating. Staff were friendly and hygiene was not an issue. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
