The Telford Arms Restaurant & Bar in Edinburgh, City of

Stopped by here on the way home. The place was empty but the kids corner was a bonus for us and kept our 3 yr old son happy! Menu doesn't have much choice but the food was delicious! We had chicken burger and an old Smokey burger. No complaints! Staff and punters were friendly an we will definitely be back again. I dont know why there wasn't more publicity about this place as it defo needs it. Come here if u like no no fuss good pub grub and a place for the kids to play.

We popped in for something to eat and the food was delicious - very fresh haddock and a lovely rich steak pie sauce. The staff were very polite and efficient and the food was served quickly.

I recently visited with family for a meal, although very busy we were ok to wait as our waitress Donna told us beforehand that the kitchen was quite busy. Food arrived in good time still. Really nice food and friendly service from all.

Went for a midweek dinner was lush steak was to die for and kids meals are a decent size and price was very gd value for the food and Kirsty our waitresses was very polite and made us feel so welcome will defo be back

we had a meal at this pub on Saturday, My fish and chips was nice but my husbands lasanga was dry and tasteless. the manager said he would pass our comments on to the cook,

Yo estaba viendo a través de la UEFA en Edimburgo dos Calificadores de la Liga de campeones de mujeres.

Food is mainly good. Made special by waitreds Lesley who is always friendly and welcomeng especially to special needs customers.

Es muy local pero no me habían visitado antes. Publicidad recientemente, han aumentado y he oído cosas buenas acerca de su almuerzo de domingo, así que decidí ir a verlo. El personal de recepción agradable y nos dirigieron a una buena mesa en un rincón acogedor. (Hacía frío y estaba nevando así este era bienvenido). Elegí el domingo tradicional asado de Ternera Blade ostenta con todos los adornos (aparte de patatas que no estaban incluidos? En £9.)

Friday night visit with son in law , beer nice and food more than ok. Great value for money but very few other diners and bar had noisy pool players. 7 out of 10 from me

My family and I had dinner at the Telford Arms in August 2017 whilst visiting Edinburgh and Staying at the Holiday Inn City West. The decor and ambience is authentic pub style and is welcoming and charming. The staff are very friendly and efficient. The food is delicious and well priced and they have a wide selection of beers, wines and spirits on offer. We thoroughly enjoyed our night out there.

En nuestro camino a casa una noche decidimos probarlo. No había estado allí por más de 20 años. Ya que en el wiatyer wlked llegó a todos nosotros disculpas y dijo que este tema era una noche escocesa y el menú era escocesa. Había una fiesta ENORME autobús de turistas DE ESTADOS UNIDOS/Australia y Singapur y el tema escocés extendida a la animación con una gaita, un acordeón jugó un guitarra y dos bailarines. Se acabaron los animadores a través de una selección de canciones, algunas musical escocés o jugado otros cantaron acompañados por los bailarines en algunos casos. Un poco cursi, pero muy divertido. Ahora todo esto se podría pensar la comida lo todo. No un poco de ella. Un haggis de degustación, y una brizna de carne que literalmente se cayó del hueso, terminado con un tradicional escocés, el Desierto Crannachan. Realmente muy agradable y bien merece una visita. Que hacen muchas noches temáticas como en los retretes para los próximos anuncios había Noches de motown y otros. El personal no podía hacer lo suficiente.

Alojarse en un hotel local después de ver un partido en Murrayfield encontramos esta joya en tripadvisor.

We found this pub round the corner from the hotel we are staying in. Friendly staff and lovely home cooked meals at a fantastic price. Couldn't fault it in anyway whatsoever. Wish we were staying in Edinburgh longer.

authentische schottische location, pub, bar, restaurant, super frischer fisch & die burger auch klasse

El servicio perfecto. La comida fantastica. El lugar ideal. El unico restaurante al que fuimos que no tuvimos que ir a la barra a pedir nuestra cena. Un 10

the telford arms is a bar/restaurant situated on telford road close to the western general hospital they serve great food at very good prices.

We have been to this Telford arms a few times and we have never ever found any fault the fish...

Visitamos aquí para un almuerzo tarde como otro sitio había dicho que era un pub, que perros y un bol de agua. Muy decepcionados con la comida. Menú del almuerzo casi inexistentes ya que no hacen sándwiches o cualquier comida. Lo que hacía era sosa y es la primera vez que he visto una ensalada (completa con vinagre) sirve en el medio de un spaghetti carbonara. No pensaré volver

Preguntó qué la sopa de tomate, nos dijeron que era. No era nada como tomate, más como verduras con un toque de pimienta. No mantequilla dado con el pan soso. No vale la pena casi £4, el tamaño de la porción era ridículo. Pedimos pescado y patatas fritas como yo mujeres visto las críticas eran excelentes para este particular plato. El pescado en sí era una buena parte, agradable masa. Patatas fritas y guisantes congelados claramente de que era decepcionante. Mi compañero se la auld smokey burger, que ni siquiera sabe como adecuada la carne. La mitad de la placa estaba cubierta de ensalada y patatas fritas más congelados. En general toda la comida y dos bebidas cuesta £26. 50, Qué desperdicio. Marché muy decepcionado y me aconsejo precaución en dar este lugar una oportunidad si quieres estafados.

Yo estaba cerca, pero no te gusta la cocina del hotel así que pensé probar los brazos Telford para algunas de las altamente recomendado tripadvisor pescado y patatas fritas.

We have just enjoyed a delicious bar meal this evening at the Telford served Lubyan who was extremely helpfulWe just popped in for a quick evening meal . . We are warmly welcomed and enjoyed the delicious haggis balls starter.... my partner had beer battered haddock which was delicious and I enjoyed the chicken goujons with mozzarella which were extremely goodWe were greeted as soon as we walked in by friendly and enthusiastic Lubyan who was a delight ..it is surprising this place is not busier tonight ...but it is midweek.. as it is easily accessible and extremely well priced thank you for a lovely meal....we will be back soon

I had fish and chips - the lunchtime portion is excellent value at £3.95 - they create the fish and chips as one of their best dishes and it was! My husband had the steak pie and was disappointed - felt the gravy was too watery. Service was excellent - very attentive and friendly. Would definitely go back for fish and chips.

I went with my friend we had lovely fresh fish and chipsWe were welcomed by Norma very friendly and welcomingWe were then served by Lesley who was also very friendlyWe were served and treated like we were importantDue to the service we got we will be back And we will be recommending the Telford arms to our friends Thanks for a nice time

We had a fish and chips for tea. This was freshly cooked, was hot and delicious.The décor of the place was very nice and the service very pleasant.We will certainly go back here for a .meal

very nice run family friendly pub with pleasant staff and lovely food my daughter loves the duke box she had her first T-bone steak there

Had a nice meal here, food was good, prices were good, lots of space, place was clean, great for couples, families, etc. We're planning on going back. Took 1 star away because we were new customers and our server was more interested in their friends than us, pity, it would have been five stars otherwise. Nice place though.

Went on 31st August for something to eat. Ordered 2 chicken stacks and 1burger. Waiter came back and said they had no chicken, so ordered 2 bbq burgers . The food eventually arrived we all cut the burgers in half only to fined that they were raw in the middle. Sent them back and the waiter asked if we wanted them cooked again or them taken of the bill. Which we answered that we wanted a total new one. The waiter also let it slip that the chef had forgotten to take chicken out of the freezer. Second time I've been don't think I'll be back

We go to this place a few times a year since it's (just about) walking distance from our house. It's never that busy, which is a shame as the food is excellent, the service fast and the prices very fair. In particular, the fish and chips is great.

Small selection of food.Been a few times and the food has always been great.Would highly recommend to anyone.Great friendly staff

Had excellent service from kirsty will definitely visited again. Fabulous fresh food everytime without fail

Small menu but good food served. The fish is excellent, the garlic mushrooms are great and the homemade steak pie great but too much. Service very good Will definitely be back

Inexpensive Groupon fish and chips for two served by pleasant lady but I'm not at all convinced it wasn't 'formed' fish.Came with chips, peas and a pot of builder's tea but a bit of a disappointment. Maybe expecting too much.

We arrived with 5 in the party we stood a while until we were served then as the woman spoke to us she started to serve someone at the bar. We finally got taken to our table we waited a while for someone to come then we had to ask for the menus. When they came they took our drink order and then we waited another 5-10 mins for someone to take our order.when they came to take our order we started to tell her then she left as she forgot her pad. We waited a long time for the food to come but all the woman said was everyone has come in at the same time but all the people I counted was 20 people in the time we were there. When the food finally came the food was good but not brilliant so won't be going back there again.

Booked for a family lunch. Staff friendly and attentive which is great to see.Staff forgot my wife's order...and when requested again was told not available...eventually. Made a different choice and unfortunately my wife was without her main while the rest of the family were finishing dessert. Food very average....like something cooked from Iceland...not satisfying pub grub. Shame..we so looked forward to it.Come on Telford Arms...raise your game.

Visited recently with a groupon voucher for 2 fish teas as the reviews were good.Unfortunately the food was not great - fish batter was wet and soggy.Very friendly and greeted on arrival, lovely waitress.HOWEVER - I went to the bar for a blackcurrant & soda with ice in a tall glass (1/2 pint at most?) to be asked for £2.70 - I queried price with barmaid but I was told that it was correctWe were in the Grand Central hotel Glasgow recently and the soft drink prices were nowhere near thisI absolutely hate when places rip you off to this extent and will most definitely not be going back

Thanks to Karen for her friendly service. Amazing food from Chef Lee and great chat and definitely planning on coming in again. Thanks for making me feel welcome. Rowena

Went with work mates after our shift to try the food at the Telford Arms.I was really impressed with the menu and the food was really tasty.We got looked after by the waiter and he was really friendly. I will begoing back to work my through the menu.

Had a voucher Two starters and two mainsWaited 40 minutes for starterMade a mistake thought it was two courses didn't have a starter Had to pay for desertAsked prior to going if we could swap ballon is for soft drinks told yesWhen we received the bill soft drinks were charged forManageress/bar person said we had to pay not friendly staff

Decided to give this place a go for dinner last night but it was a big mistake. First impressions not good, litter outside the front door along with a paper cup of leftover coffee with lots of cigarette ends in it. Not very appealing! When we got into the place we were seated at a back table. It absolutely stank of what can be described as spew and cheap bleach! Ordered chicken Caesar salad to start and macaroni for main. Chicken salad was bland, vegetables were definitely not fresh and the croutons were very stale. For these reasons I did not even touch the chicken... Who knows how long it had been sitting in that kitchen for! Macaroni was average, wasn't very cheesy and the pasta had been boiled for far too long. Served with old un-fresh salad and a really dry piece of bread which was meant to be garlic bread. My mum said her fish and chips were nice though. For dessert I had lemon drizzle cake. This was also average, you could tell it had been sitting out for a few days, it was so so dry! Ice cream was nice and creamy though but I'm guessing I enjoyed it because it had not been hand made by the chef here!! Overall the place is in need of a good renovation, quite old, shabby and smelly! Had the food been good I would have overlooked this and quite probably may have returned. Waiting staff were are really attentive and nice, but the place would look more professional if the staff all wore a uniform perhaps, rather than just jeans, trainers etc.

Just had fabulous service from Kirsty the assistant manager who goes above and beyond to ensure we received 5 Star treatment. It's the 2nd time I have had the pleasure of kirsty's friendly service and will be back again soon

Brilliant atmosphere, excellent meal, outstanding customer service. Big thanks to all staff at the telford arms. Special thanks to kirsty spiers for looking after us all. I will have no hesitation in visiting again. Thank you all.

We booked for Christmas Dinner but had to cancel due to me having to work. Manageress was very understanding and gave us a full refund. We booked the Christmas Eve dinner instead and were pleasantly surprised by the standard of food which was excellent as was the service by our waitress Karen.

Purchased a discount voucher from 5pm.com for a recent visit to Edinburgh. Emailed The Telford Arms to arrange a date to use the voucher and they replied and it was booked. On arrival our booking had not been put in the book. We were told by the waitress after she spoke to the chef if we wanted the Christmas dinner which we had booked we would need to order straight away. 2 of us ordered the lentil soup and 2 ordered the pate. Asked what came with the pate and did they serve chutney to go along with it. Soup arrived and it was tasteless, honestly never had a lentil soup which has no taste. The pate arrived which looked like a turd on the plate and as for chutney I couldn't eat it for laughing as they gave me marmalade. Starters were a disaster.Next 2 beef and 2 Turkey, the beef was tough and unedible, the Turkey was 2 slices of grey Turkey with a slice of white underneath with a terrible stuffing. The potatoes were reheated soggy and burnt. The only thing we could eat of the plate was the vegetables.Pudding was offered and we thought well you can't go wrong here. We were offered Christmas pudding, cheesecake and apple pie. First the apple pie was actually crumble and not only that it was apple and berry. Needless to say we had to ask if it was rhubarb crumble. The cheesecake was one of the worst I have ever eaten. Only bonus was the ice-cream was not to bad.The four of us agreed it was the worst meal we have ever eaten, can't fault the waitress she was attentive and approachable. But very disappointed this was the first place to eat on our 2 day trip and it left a sour taste in our mouths.

Great food, staff are always friendly And attentive and lovely space. George always comes to say hello too! Ive been going here since i was a little girl and i think it was a different man who owned it back then but it has always been a great place!

Visited on Christmas Day for lunch. Food was terrible. Tasteless soup, nut roast swimming in grease, tasteless overcooked veg, berry crumble made with biscuits and hardly any custard. Visited before and it was OK but this year very over priced at £40 for slop.

Warm, spacious BUT average service.Slow service.Food portions were small and cold.This fact was made aware to the servers, Larger portions were EVENTUALLY given.No apology.

Visited here as we were staying along the road and decided to pop in lovely bar and food was lovely staff very nice and friendly even after the waitress forgot our juice and teased my other half about the steak pie . ( banter is also good )

We booked here for our Family meal for Christmas Eve and really enjoyed our evening the food was tremendous (try the haggis balls) and there was a great atmosphere.The staff were brilliant, very attentive and courteous and really made it a great evening we will certainly be back thanks for having us

I went to the Telford Arms with my wife with a voucher from Living Social worth up to £49.10 and complained, please see below this is what I had sent to them.In the proprietors defence he has offered another dinner and a free bottle of wine but what he cannot understand is after our visit we do not want to go back, who wants to go and eat somewhere after you have complained.My wife and I were not happy with our visit to the Telford Arms. We were told we could choose from the full menu which included the preset Christmas 3 course menu. Being the festive period we choose from the Christmas menu. Both the starters were fine although the portion size was minimal. We choose the pate and the black pudding. We both then ordered the turkey. Again this was a minimal sized portion.The dinner its self was ok. The turkey and the stuffing looked like the sliced variety found in the Deli counter of your local shop. We were give one slice of turkey and one slice of turkey rolled with stuffing. When the waitress came to take our plates away she did mention that it was a small portion and the chef must have made it smaller due to the voucher we had. – How and why would the chef know our method of payment?The potatoes, carrots, parsnips and gravy were lovely. Our pudding were a whole different ball game though. We both wanted to order the cheesecake but where told that there was only 1 portion left so I let my wife have that and I ordered the Fudge Cake. The cheesecake arrived we were unsure as to what kind it was. It was flat and definitely not made from cream cheese. It tasted like a heavy synthetic cream. When the waitress came back she asked if it was ok so we advised her of the cheese cake, she then went on to say that I was going to put my finger in it to see what it was like but I have just done that to the new Cheese Cake we have in the kitchen and laughed. – Even when we were told there was ‘only one slice of cheesecake left’! There was still more in the kitchen! I am very disappointed in my visit and wished we had chosen from the normal menu and never went near the Christmas dinner.

I have visited the Telford Arms on a number of occasions and every time service has been fantastic , never a problem with the food always cooked to perfection!Great prices for food weekday / weekend also offering smaller portions

I went with my family to the Telford Arms for lunch and we all enjoyed the food and the experience. I had their Telford burger tower which took a lot of eating but was well worth it . All the staff were very helpful and friendly especially our waiter Ross . I will be visiting again soon as it was good value and affordable .

Nice little play area for the children where you can keep an eye on them while you eat. Food really nice and hot. Husband said it was the best burger he had ever had. Staff really friendly and accommodating.

My sister and I visited Telford Arms to enjoy their fish and chips offer, with green peas and a tea. The battered haddock was really good and the portions were huge. I was afraid I might not eat it all but succeeded.:-)Nice, friendly, attentive staff. We had a table by the fireplace. Nice and warm. The pub itself was rather empty but perhaps we came too early to meet crowds.All in all, a great experience with a 'home made' dish.

Popped in for an evening meal while staying in the area. As soon as we approached the bar the lovely staff were welcoming. Set a table out for us, brought drinks to the table all evening and we were there for a while! The food was excellent and home cooked. Very reasonably priced considering they are only 10 minutes from the city centre.If I ever visit Edinburgh again, I would go back here!

We went for a family meal here on Saturday using fish and chip vouchers. I'm not in the habit of eating battered fish when I'm eating out, but the waitress recommended it. The batter was soft and soggy - when will I ever learn to go with my own instincts. Fortunately I had a starter of Tuscan bean soup which was really good. The staff are brilliant, most accomodating. It is larger than I thought it would be. The rest of our group (4 adults + 2 kiddies) seemed to enjoy it and other than my disappointing fish, I did enjoy the relaxed atmosphere.Price wise, I didn't think it was comparable with other pub meals and a bit pricey for what we had.

Friendly staff and lovely food good choice of food available and excellent value for money really enjoyed it. Don't be put off by the decor it's well worth a visit and a pig out

Food in 5 min. on the table. That's only possible with a microwave. The food is simple and just eatable. The homemade pies are dry as if they were made weeks ago. The people were nice and drinks at the bar is there specialty i think. This is not a restaurant.

Can't fault it good food well priced ideal location for those wanting something better than hospital food before visiting friends or relatives at the nearby hospital

Great place to relax fantastic food and very friendly staff George is always very accommodating even for special diets. Good gluten free menus.

The only decent place I could find near my hotel. Family friendly with spacious space, friendly staffs, average food to my standard, and reasonable price.

the Telford arms is a great place to have something to eat with a very homely and relaxed atmosphere with great service from all staff. in the evening with the DJ is a fun place to be, would defiantly give 5 stars and recommend to anyone wanting a great evening. exceptional severe given from Jack Murray

Good guy well presented had excellent knowledge of drinks and understood exactly what we were looking for. All round superb night. Enjoyed by all.

I popped into the telford arms for some lunch on 3rd of July and was immediately greeted warmly by Kirsty and jack. I ordered drinks and fish and chips, with the drinks being promptly served at the table. shortly after my fish, chips, peas and mushroom sauce arrived. Not only was it an amazing portion size, but it was cooked exactly how I asked and tasted absolutely lovely. Best cooked fish and best mushroom sauce I have had in a very long time, if not ever. Highly recommend this delightful place. X

Got there at 11am on website states opening hours are 9am to 11pm on a Sunday drove from south Queensferry to find it closed ,Even sign on the door said 9am to 11pm on Sunday your loss 8 off us that won't be back

My favourite pub! George and his team are fantastic with regulars and new faces! Foods good, prices are amazing, brilliant atmosphere. Facebook page keeps everyone up to date with , special nights and offers! Don't know what people find to complain about. Ignore negative comments/reviews Telford you're doing great!

Me and my friends were always locals to the telford arms. We were there every saturday without a doubt. However when it came to money the manager only cared about money. He only cares about bringing external customers into his pub for a one off ocassion. Me and my friends were in the telford arms from 1pm and made an ocassion of the biggest event on the football calender and refused to play this on MUTE in the corner of the bar, not disrupting any function that had been booked. The bar manager had no loyalty and only cares about his income which he doesnt realise it comes from me and my friends income. The house white was also very unsatisfactory and over priced, it did not deliver on its promise of hints of juniper and hollyhocks and left an extremely rough taste on the pallet. It also did not acompany the battered haddock well so i had the compromise with a fried egg. The atmosphere was ruined by the contraversial news that we were not allowed to watch the biggest football event of the year due to 'business'. Choose loyalty. Choose fairness. Choose refreshing wine. DO NOT CHOOSE THE TELFORD.

Thoroughly enjoyed the 2 for £10 fish and chips. Returned a few weeks later to find out the offer had been taken off. Enquired as to why this was and was told by a waitress that although it had been very popular it was no longer available as part of the special deal. Very disappointed.

I visited the Telford Arms on a fairly quiet Saturday recently for lunch with my husband and our 6 year old son. My son had the kids fish and chips and we had haggis balls followed by burgers. All really delicious and well cooked. The staff were all very welcoming and keen to make sure everything was ok. My son loved the wee kids play corner, good selection of toys to keep him entertained. We'll be back!

Well had a fabulous day out for a meal better than some places one must say, overall food great staff Kirsty very Helpull always checking we were happy with our drinks food and general hospitality well done you Kirsty keep up the good work.

Fantastic meal, a very warm welcome from Jamie the Manager who was very attentive, warm and friendly. We came with friends and will defo be back. We all had something different to eat. Cheers Jamie for making feel very welcome.

Have just read the previous 2 reviews where the customers had a bad experience.......I am very surprised. We visit the Telford Arms regularly(Fri 13th March was our most recent visit) and have always found the food to be very tasty and very good value. Staff are always very pleasant and always check to see if you are enjoying your meal.Will definitely go back.

We visited this place with a Groupon voucher for Fish and Chips and were very disappointed. The batter was very greasy/oily and the fish had either been taken from the deep fat fryer and put immediately on to our plates without being drained or else had been cooked when the oil was not hot enough. It was so oily that we had to remove the batter and just eat the fish. We mentioned this to our server when he collected our plates and he told us that he had been told this before on numerous occasions and he felt that the kitchen should invest in a draining basket. I had actually purchased a second voucher as had intended returning with my husband but came home and telephoned Groupon to cancel this as it had been purchased less than 14 days ago.

Telford Arms was a terrible experience for my daughter and I. I found a hair in my dinner, the cutlery was filthy, there was an unpleasant stench. I wouldn't ever go there again obviously :-(

Friendly and Michael who served us was lovely making sure we were ok a lovely place to have a family meal thank you telford arms

Ok i do go to Telford Arms quite regularly,when there for something to eat i usually stay safe with fish and chips because i know it's of excellent taste and quality ,however tonight i had the macaroni cheese and though no one can top mine,it was a very close second!,with lovely fresh salad and garlic bread slice,finished off with a banana split which was delicious and looked after by the lovely stephanie who is always very friendly.......also must recommend DJ Tux,i always have a fab night when he's doing the disco!

Visited for dinner with a Groupon voucher. A warm welcome and nothing was too much trouble for Jamie. Enjoyed the experience and will be back again. Decent portions of food and the only down side was grotty loos.

Amazing Fish and Chips! the portion is huge and the fish is brilliant, its not greasy or heavy and the chips are crispy and just perfect. Im very fussy with food and they were more then happy to amend the dish, which is a big plus because alot of placed arent as happy to make what you would like. The meal is well timed, not rushed and very comfortable to sit and chat or drink inbetween courses, the staff are very attentive and friendly, loved the recommmended Sticky Toffee Pudding! Love coming in here, service is always amazing, everythings well priced and I look forward to coming back. thanks for another great meal! Lisa Mackay

The Telford Arms is nothing to write home about when viewed from the outside, but on entering it is like being in the tardis, it is large inside with open roaring fires, just what was needed at lunchtime on cold, dank February day. The welcome that we received from the barman, (who we later learned was the owner George), was warm, friendly and welcoming. We chose the breaded fish and chips, which arrived very promptly, freshly cooked on hot plates. It was obvious that the fish was fresh, it was truly delicious, we could not fault the meal. The Telford was not very busy, but this did not detract from the standard of the meal. It is a pity that the Telford Arms is not nearer to the City Centre as I am sure that if it were then it would be packed, especially given the quality, quantity and standard of service. The next time that we are visiting Edinburgh we will make a point of eating at the Telford: even if it means making an extra effort to travel there. The bar appeared well stocked, next time I will make sure that I am not driving so that I can sample some of the drinks. I cannot recommend this establishment highly enough for value for money.

The Telford is really a local pub we thought; we drive past it several times a week, but we're not really "pub people"...drinking/driving, you know. But a friend gave Bill a voucher for "Fish & Chips at the Telford" - a thank you gift for a job done, so we popped in on chance at teatime and enjoyed the most delightful hospitality - our table at the open warm real fireside. It wasn't busy at the time, but looking round was a warming experience too. And the food was just excellent! It's said they're famous for their Fish 'n' Chips....well we had the most succulent haddock and chips I've had in decades! Although we were just having a modest meal that evening, TheTelford Arms is well high on our list of where to take friends, where we'll go again SOON and what we heartily recommend to local people and visitors. We had the pleasure of Jamie's hositality and a chat with the DJ - but feel sure there's a whole professional staff just waiting to serve you! ENJOY - like we did - Liz and Bill

Another amazing meal at the Telford! I had garlic bread with cheese followed by macaroni and really crispy chips!! Was absolutely delicious! Portion sizes are massive and the prices are fab! George is the friendliest guy ever and couldn't be more helpful for fussy people like me and my friend! Keep up the good work George and the team!

First time visiting for a meal.. and got to say it was absolutely delicious! Very welcoming Couldn't have asked for a better service or fresher food! The Fish and chip's was fantastic! As was the macaroni! Chocolate fudge cake and Sticky toffee pudding are simply define!! Definitely recommendable!!

We have visited this bar on many occasions and have always had the fish and chips. It is the best ever, plus they cater for gluten-free allergies. Always served with a smile.

We had always said we would go here for something to eat, when we did we had the battered fish and chips, you get the choice to have it breaded but the batter was lovely and light, the staff are friendly and polite we have been back since and recommend it.

Some of the best fish and chips that I've ever eaten and at a great price. A good selection of drinks and very friendly staff. This was a very pleasant find, just outside of the town centre.

Never have I felt so inclined to come on here and rate anywhere. The place is hidden away, just outside the city centre which is why I am guessing it's so quiet. Not much atmosphere to it, but I have a feeling in a few months it will explode in popularity. The food is genuinely some of the best tasting stuff I've had from Edinburgh and I've just about tried every restaurant and bar worth going to.They have different deals on the different days you go, but I've had the fish and the BBQ burger, both were unreal and sure the deal was 2 for £10 or something similar, which you cannot go wrong with.Good choice of pints as well, as I said, expect it to be quiet but it's only a matter of time before this secret escapes!

The telford arms is a great place for a meal or an event. The staff are so friendly and helpful. The food is always lovely and the prices are great so it's hard to believe how quiet it is sometimes. I'd highly recommend the Telford arms for any occasion. I certainly loved spending my 21st downing the jägerbombs! George and his team are fantastic!

We had the fish and chips which were lovely as always. Would highly recommend the home made burgers as well as we have had them several times! The pub was quite busy tonight which was good to see as the owner is trying very hard to make it successful.

We went in for early lunch today. It was still quite quiet. Great food and service though. would definitely come again if we were passing again.

had a lovely meal fish and chips first visit and more planned lovely place and friendly staff allan evelyn

3rd visit to te Telford great staff, We normally have the fish but tonight we had the home-made burgers very very tasty full of flavour.After an other great meal we may book the Telford for our Christmas dinner

Went to the Telford for dinner with seven friends. Even though it was a weekday evening we were surprised to be almost the only customers there.The young barman was very friendly and helpful although it is questionable whether he should have been left alone by himself to run such a big place as any more people would have been hard for him to manage.The food was good - although it took quite a long time to arrive there was plenty of it and it was very good value.My only niggle would be the dreadful music that was played for the whole evening. Not only was it loud enough to interrupt conversation, but also it was something like 1980s top operatic musicals.

Visited The Telford Arms twice this month. First visit, had fish&chips, second visit burger and chips. All absolutely amazing! Food tastes delicious, well priced. The cheesecake baked by the chef is a must eat. Staff very friendly and helpful.Look forward to coming back again soon.

Wouldn't recommend below average long waiting times too. Need to speed up service employ more staff maybe?

Visited the Telford with friends this afternoon, enjoyed the seabass first time Ive sampled this and wasnt disappointed. Service was excellent and meal arrived quickly dispite the place being busy. My friends were impressed and keen to visit again.

Had lunch here -two courses for under £7 - food average - very quiet restaurant - very clean toilets - attentive and polite staff - no frills but adequate food - wouldn't rush back - but couldn't fault it.

My partner and I bought the voucher for fish and chips, with tea/coffee for £9. Can't really go wrong with that! Booking is relatively easy, ping an email and done. Upon arrival it was quite busy (think 2 large parties were taking place) and we were quickly seated. Gave our voucher and ordered drinks. 1st point - up selling is something that needs improved on. Didn't even get asked if we wanted a starter! Nor a desert at the end. 2nd point - ordering an Irn Bru and lemonade turned into an Irn Bru and a pint of something lager related!! Then got a pint of lemonade with the words 'it was a pint yes?' why not, 3 attempts to get a drink correct would have been soul destroying. 3rd point - organisational skills need improved upon. Our order was sent to the table next to us resulting in me getting battered fish and my partner getting breaded. Not bad for 2x battered being ordered. The only reason it wasn't returned is the breaded looked better than the battered.Nice tartar sauce by the way - plus point. Sadly this'll be a one time only visit.

Me and my fiancé went here on a weekend trip to Edinburgh. To try and save money, I looked around for voucher codes or Groupon like deals online, and found a deal for this place on Amazon Local. It was £9 for two fish and chip meals and tea/coffee, so I was happy with the price.Read some of the reviews on here, mixed but mostly good, so we booked ahead for lunch as that was a requirement of the voucher.When we arrived, we were one of the only people there, it was dead.. We were placed at the corner furthest from the bar, and presented the voucher. The girl who took our order wasn't the friendliest and we felt a bit awkward. When the food arrived, I was expecting amazing things judging by some of the reviews as the Fish and Chips seemed to be their speciality. However we felt it was just average. Great for £4.50 I suppose, but not again.. the fish was the greasiest thing I'v ever had, the entire plate was swimming in oil. We still ate it as it was fine, but not good.I'm glad we went as it was a main meal for both of us on a budget, but we'll not be back unfortunately.

I had fish & chips with my grandson as I bought a voucher from Amazon Local. We were served by friendly staff. The food was served in good manner & the fish, chips & sauce was excellent . It was fresh , well cooked & presented in style.The coffee was expensive & appreciated by me.Exceptional value for money. Highly recommended.

We went yesterday 18/4/2014 , had the fish & chips ......they were great , good portions nicely cooked & presented , so nice to have a good pot of tea too , the staff were very friendly , we will certainly be back , lots more on the menu to try John & Mary

I've driven past this place hundreds of times and decided to give it ago based on the reviews. Inside is very large and spacious and we were placed right beside the fire which was lovely as it was pretty cold outside. Decor in the place is a bit tired and could do with a little sprucing up but its clean nonetheless. Starters were fish cakes and chicken goujons which were ok but the real star was the roast pork meal. It was a very generous portion, lovely fresh vegetables, soft roast pork, roast potatoes were a little overcooked but was a nice roast dinner. Pudding was sticky toffee pudding and chocolate fudge cake again very nice food. We were here on a voucher deal but normal prices were very cheap anyway and will be back to try their normal menu.
