Westgate Farm, Dining & Carvery in Edinburgh, City of

Great food and drinks. Bar wait slightly long but other than that, it was a quick efficient service.

Food was great, lovely staff and nice atmosphere! Only criticism would be that they could maybe do with an extra pair of hands behind the bar at peak times.

Excellent food, generous portions. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. Desserts look fantastic, but could not fit it in after the main course!

Omg,first time here for breakfast and i was very impressed! We love a buffet breakfast and this did not disappoint! Huge selection of everything and super tasty. Lorna the lovely lady who greeted us when we arrived and left took the time to chat with us,she was very pleasant! Good staff make it an even better experience! The video wasnt obviously of breakfast,i forgot to take a photo but these puddings look amazing,cant wait to come back to try these!

Lorna was as always very warm, welcoming and helpful. Nice relaxed breakfast.

We visited due to staying at the hotel next door. We initially ordered starters and mains along with drinks. We were served 2 out of 4 starters and waited 5 minutes for the 3rd to arrive. When this arrived we explained we were still waiting on a kids starter. The server then disappeared again and quickly reappeared with 2 of the mains despite the fact we were still waiting on a starter. We stated that we were not ready for our mains as we were still waiting on a starter which then arrived after a further 5 minutes! The server then asked when she could take out our mains. The mains arrived and were ok but had clearly been sitting out under a heat lamp, the butter that came with 2 of the mains was liquid and the sauce with one of the mains had a skin on it. We then went to order desert … one of the desserts was unavailable despite it being on display in the cabinet which was somewhat confusing and then an error was made with our order, which we was apparently when it was served. By this point we were passed caring and finished up and left. We also had some issues when ordering drinks… despite drinks showing on the menu when at the bar we were told they were unavailable… this was the case with 2 different drinks. All in all it was pretty disappointing.

Great staff friendly welcoming food good party of fourteen everything was fine

Nice Xmas LUNCH and good service from Bar and Staff - very enjoyable and not overly expensive

Easy, comfortable, great service and delicious food.

Friendly atmosphere, accommodating staff. Local specialties were delicious, pasta for kids was average

Came in for lunch with work colleagues. Bar service only, and there’s one person behind the bar taking drinks orders, food orders and making the drinks for the entire restaurant. Opted for the carvery as you don’t need to wait on the kitchen, but it took us 25 minutes to get from 3rd place in the queue at the bar to the point where we could place an order and pay for it. We spent longer standing at the bar than we did eating our meal.

Great service today from Lorna. Made us feel very comfortable

Came here twice whilst staying at the Travelodge next door. Dinner was great, lots of options and service was brilliant. Staff were very nice and helpful. Had breakfast too, very reasonably priced and tasted good.

Whilst Lorna was amazing! On the next visit with a different member of staff. the service was appalling. How can you not have the slightest customer service. I just wanted coffee and sourdough toast and butter. Even if it’s not on the menu ( which is) I could get offered a replacement but instead I just have coffee. To make things worse when I saw that was on the menu and brought to their attention. I got give 2 bits of toast with no butter. It just felt like I’m doing you a favour. Very kind but obviously I wanted butter I had asked to start with but the manner I was apprach and the lack of customer serve made super unhappy. They can keep their 2 pieces of toast.

Popped in for a few drinks and a light meal, great service.

Food was sub-par, service same so, and atmosphere was ok, decent music, but that's it.

Lovely meal & great service. Unfortunately husband lost his spectacles somewhere on leaving restaurant but will be back. Food was amazing.

Lorna was fantastic. Great person to have onnyour team

Lorna was a great host, she created a lovely experience, when we arrived it was very busy with Xmas lunches. And she still made an effort ensuring our needs where met.

Lorna was very friendly and helpful amazing place

Came in for breakfast Shearen was very friendly and welcoming.

Had a lovely meal at lunch today. Service as fantastic. Lorna was very helpful and served us very fast. She was very nice and very kind to my son seating us near the kids area and kindly getting some mash for my son as he loved it. I thoroughly enjoyed lunch thank you xx

Carvery was great! Good place to take young kids as they can burn off some energy in play area. Our server Shearen was very friendly and very attentive. Thanks!

Waitress was lovely & welcoming, very friendly & talkative with us all, her name was Shereen I’m sure. Asset to the business

Laurna was brilliant, excellent service

Great food, staff friendly especially Lorna who accommodate our request.

Shearen was lovely always helped

I had lunch with friends at Westgate Farm a few weeks ago. I ordered their "new to the menu" beanburger. I've been a vegetarian for some 40 years but have never seen nor tasted a beanburger like it. It seemed as if they were trying to disguise that it was a beanburger as it was covered with breadcrumbs, cauliflower wings, melted cheese, BBQ sauce and more. The beanburger itself looked like brown putty with whole haricot beans through it and was inedible. I have been to this restaurant for lunch several times. The staff are lovely, there's a friendly atmosphere and the food is usually reasonable and reasonably priced. But I feel the restaurant's managers should sit down and eat one of their veggie beanburgers and give an honest review of it on this site. I think they will realise that their vegetarian customers deserve better.

Our server sherrie was very tentative and very helpful.

Shiree was an absolute legend - really helpful and made us feel so welcome instantly.. Food was good and atmosphere was relaxed and calming. Every need we had was accommodated. Recommend this place.

Amazing food and shearen was amazing always makes us feel welcome defo be back she's always so cheerful and done our check backs

Sheree was wonderful, really friendly and helpful. We had a great meal.

10/10 excelent service, Carvery and environment. Very good price too.

I was in your restaurant Sunday 24/11/24 at 5 o’clock and found your car park in darkness as none of the lights were on, as we are both in our sixties found this extremely dangerous. I don’t think we will be using your restaurant during the winter months unless the lighting issue is fixed.

Excellent service. Extra food was brought to our table when the buffet was nearly empty. Milk & hot water at the tea / coffee station was topped up in a timely manner.

Lorna was very helpful and attentive

No comment on their booking system.

Lovely meal with family, some chose carvery and others main menu.

Food was good. Was welcomed very nicely. Only disappointing things were that we ordered a starter and main. While mid eating our starter our mains came. The place wasn’t busy so not sure why it had to be rushed. I ordered a starter and main not a starter and side. One way to let people’s food get cold. Then after we finished our starters and mid eating our mains. A server was just standing and peeping over to look at us it can be seen as creepy. She was just waiting to come and ask if we want out empty plates taken away. Like no I just want some plates this we don’t need to be hanging around at the end of the table

thanks Lorna for today , had a good time

Lorna was super friendly and accommodating

Portion size of the meat is absolutely shocking for the price overcompensating in mashed potatoes roast potatoes are black and bruised the if you want to call it stuffing more looks like a dog spewed at the bottom of my meal carrots boil potatoes are actually decent

food absolutely shocking..£12 for 1 piece of meat, half a tub of mash and half a tub of carrots, no yorkies or pigs in blankets that I paid for. won't be ordering again

Good food - reasonable prices. Friendly and attentive staff. Can't ask for more! Didn't catch server's name, but we were at table 43.

We have been going here for a while now. The Carvery is fantastic, always fresh and hot. A special mention to Lorna who always gives us a lovely welcome and looks after us well.

Friendly Staff, lots to choose from the menu. Different areas to sit. Carvery on offer if you prefer. If you have any problems the staff are happy to sort them out. Lorna goes out her way to help and makes sure that all customers are happy with everything. If you're looking for something different for a Christmas lunch then look at the menus. Some you need to book and pay a deposit and pre order your food.

Always love breakfast in here, never too busy, and haggis for breakfast.

Friendly staff, nice and clean. Does exactly what it says on the tin

Great service. Highly recommended

Luvli start to the day ,as always the breakfast was really good But the HAGGIS was AMAZING 👍 Staff were pleasant and helpful

Very kind, understanding workers tonight

Shearen was our server and was fantastic, welcoming us into the restaurant and explaining how to order. Lovely lady, this is our third visit and Shearen is always polite and happy and the service is wonderful from her.

Sheree was really friendly the food was class. Would defo come back

Once again Keith the chef does not disappoint. The food is expertly prepared, displayed and tastes delicious. An excellent place to visit as well as it is not overcrowded and there is no sign of being rushed either. Prices are also excellent. Top rated - special thanks to Keith the chef so his efforts. Too often the chef is left out of reviews but not this time.

Food took to long. Quality so so. I order fish and chips and the size of the fish was half compared with other places. Service? What service? Inexistente.

Good food, quick service and lovely staff

The food is worth the money and Lorna was delightful and very welcoming.

Alway a pleasant visit. Great staff , atmosphere and food.

Great choice of veg etc that a lot of the others don’t have. Meat was lovely and we enjoy going here for lunch. Only thing was a couple of staff finishing shift and gossiping with other staff on shift and some choice of words weren’t great, but I’m sure this was a one off as never had it before

Beautiful food was quick and hot! I left a note and you guys pulled through for me😂 thankyou so so much!! I appreciate it. Will definitely order again! X

Went at 7pm, party of 7 people. There was no carvery because they had no meat, no mac and cheese and no coffee as there machine wasn't working. However, what we did manage to eat was delicious. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Food was fresh and hot. Lorraine was very welcoming 5 stars

I went to lunch with my gran and cousin and we were welcomed by sherea who was so polite and welcoming and showed us promptly to our table. Sherea continued to be really helpful, and engaging throughout our meal asking if we enjoyed our meal and asking if she could get anything else. Overall lovely food and lovely service

Upon arrival we we got a big hello from Lorna. We were told how it worked pick a seat and enjoy. Lorna interaction with us was great and alway smiling throughout the chat. The front of house lady Tracy she got involved in the chat and was an overall experience.
