Ye Olde Inn in Edinburgh, City of

Lovely juicy burger and a surprisingly nice Greene King beer called False 9. Long time since I've enjoyed a Greene King beer. Another return visit. This time a nice piece of breaded fish and bottle of Birds & Bees. Was very enjoyable.

Cool place! Great grub, pie was amazing and club sandwich was a great value meal!

A lovely traditional pub. Hard to find such a classic pub these days.

I was here with my Family, and my mate and my Partner. for my birthday dinner. the place has a friendly atmosphere and it was my cousins friend her partners birthday celebration in the main part of the pub so I got a huge Surprise when they all brought out a cake to me and everyone in the pub sang Happy Birthday to me. And the food and table Service was amazing. And the staff has great Banter with everyone

Apart from the chicken in the Balmoral Chicken, the bacon was hard, and the chicken was very dry. Everything was ok

Great pub great staff and customers also friendly

Food was absolutely delicious and we knew there was a new chef as presentation was amazing. Well worth a visit

Great Place Great food, outside Beer Garden, large warm Conservatory, great Service run by nice people

Lovely meal with the family tonight for my 70th. Great service from all the staff. Food was excellent

Always Outstanding Food and a Warm Friendly Atmosphere 👌

Lovely fish n chips Staff are very pleasant and cheery

If you are planning on visiting Ye Old Inn wear your thermals. It is freezing. Asked the manager on duty to put the gas fire on and was told she was not allowed to put it on in September. Customer service 🤔

Excellent hosts and food worthy of a Michelin star 🌟 Thanks

Nice pub how do you allowed people to vap in the pub .

Full of jambos but a great local.boozer 😁😁😁😁

Excellent food and friendly people. Will definitely come back next time we are in town!

Great service, lovely food and a nice atmosphere. Would highly recommend 👌 Great value 👏

Great pub with a spacious beer and gin garden.

Decent pub grub ... service was really good and it was a very relaxed atmosphere

Amazing a truely invigorating intellectual experience with a very high standard of etiquette good too see the chaps spritely fellows

Food was delicious, cooked wonderfully, great portions, full of flavour. Service was quick and friendly. Great atmosphere, locals were friendly.

Lovely old pub in Davidson's Mains. Conservatory area is ideal for private functions and leads onto a lovely beer garden.

Difficult to rate a wake but the staff did really well to look after the family - delicious food, good service.

Dave the shift manager cut me and some friends off after two pints. No reason behind it and he didn’t even speak to our faces

refused us after 2 pints! Just a couple of boys trying to have a few drinks. Completely unfair and unnecessary.

Breaded fish was more like battered fish.

Place is lovely food is good, most of the staff were friendly one who totally ignored me as I asked for a drink! She definitely heard me but walked away..

Really nice place with great food and fantastic staff 👍

The burger was very dry. Other than that it was fine. Cold beer and hot fish and chips

Semi regular visit for meal with old friends. The weather probably kept people at home so wasnt as full as normal for a Friday night, but that had the bonus of making the service very quick. Had the breaded fish and probably the best I've had there. Really fresh and tasty. Finished with coffee and mints to round of a very pleasant evening.

Great pub grub, excellent service and a comfortable dining area at very reasonable prices.

The ideal beer garden for a sunny afternoon. Hard-working staff and great hospitality.

Only after my visit did I see all these one and two star reviews but, and it’s easy to see why. Their beer garden is pandemonium with unsupervised kids’ running around. Staff are clueless and inexperienced and the team is too small to deal with the enormous beer garden (which, as I say, is chaotic and full of screaming children). My lunch was so awful it was almost laughable, and I saw the cook outside with a cigarette in one hand, and one hand down his trousers scratching his a** Avoid this bar and go to one up the road.

We’ve been coming here for years now and I don’t know what’s happened recently but the service has been getting worse and worse each time we go in. Staff just standing behind the bar when they used to come to the table for food orders. We have experienced much better service and hopefully this is just a blip and I’ll happily edit the review if we experience better service next time but I feel it’s important that it’s noted that the last few times we did not find it good.

popped in for lunch Caesar salad was delicious and loads of chicken Balmoral chicken lovely too no tea still full🥰

Stopped off for lunch. Fast prompt service. And great prices

Lovely pub and restaurant food was great staff were very friendly and helpful and service was excellent and fast.

Really nice pub with good food in the area of Davidsons Mains in Edinburgh.

Cracking little boozer. Great service. Good people.

We went here on Easter Monday and I had the blagger burger was really nice and tasty well served, my partner had the Balmoral chicken that to was really tasty. The service was really good

If you are looking for a nice place to have food with the family, this is the place. I live in thebarea and have had many good food days here. The bar is also a good place to chill with a drink.

I was there sunday 25th feb 2024 and I can honestly say I had the best roast beef dinner ive ever had in my life! It was amazing and so much of it that I shared it with my 2 year old. Best place and amazingly priced. Ive told lots of people about it and I know a few who have booked tables as not to be disapointed. The chef is such a good cook.

Best bar in the North West of Edinburgh. Friendly staff, great food. Awesome quizes on Wednesdays. Huge beer garden.

We were at here at a post funeral "do". It was very well done. The food and staff were excellent and it was a nice atmosphere.

We had a small gathering for my mum's 80th and booked out the conservatory for the afternoon. Staff were fantastic, lovely buffet all in all a lovely day/evening would definitely recommend the Ye Olde Inn for a small function.

Staff are lovely. Very helpful. Plenty of food choice at a reasonable price

I booked a funeral tea for 1st February I would like to thank the staff for the lovely fresh food provided there was more than ample, everyone who attended commented on this and also on the staff being efficient pleasant but not intrusive.. I would highly recommend your establishment to others. I may add there were people with us from all Caithness to the borders who were impressed. What was a difficult day to cope with was made a lot easier. Please pass on my thanks to your staff. Thankyou Angela Astor

A lovely bar/ restaurant but need some Heating !,back door open causing cold air into lounge/dining area such a shame as a lovely seating area and food really nice , ended up had a drink then went home and Called a Chinese ! that’s not good business sort it out !!! I want to support this pub!

Great wee pub staff are amazing hosted us for Christmas and were great ! Always nice to pop down for a drink or some food, friendly staff great place

The fish is amazing best I have had

Haven't eaten in here yet the main reason I go there is because the BAR area is dog 🐶 friendly and I can go in for a drink with my border collie Benji . Bar staff very friendly like Benji a lot as do the local clientele. Highly recommended. Also in summer this establishment has a massive beer garden where dogs are also allowed 🤟🤟🤟

At popular times the entire lounge is reserved for dining. If you are in for a quiet drink you must use the small noisy side bar. Not a place to bring a date.

A fairly basic local pub but the staff are great and the food was better than expected.

I've had fish and chips battered and it was lovely fish cooked perfectly the batter was lovely and crispy I had balmoral chicken that was lovely staff are friendly. Nice little pub I would recommend a visit.

Reasonable prices and plenty of large TV'S

Lovely pub friendly staff looked after our dog.

Wonderful place, very cosy, nice friendly staff, the food is delicious, I had steak pie, mashed potatoes and veg, I love the pastry and meat very tender, my friend had haggis, tattie's n turnip without the whiskey sauce, staff very accommodating,. nothing to much bother, nice wine and company.

Great food, and real family service and environment. We stayed in Edinburgh for 5 nights and had dinner there twice. I would happily recommend Ye Olde Inn to anyone.

Great food and beer. Staff is very helpful. Nice neighborhood feeling. Local music. Great place to visit.

Very friendly staff, good selection of drinks and food at a fair price, highly recommended.

It is a nice place to grab lunch. Remind the stuff when you're ready for the next course if you are sitting in the garden tho.

Visited Edinburgh and popped in for a bite to eat. Way bigger than you first think. Spacious great beer garden. Food was fantastic as everyone had something different. All arrived together and staff were so friendly and polite. Great service all round. Love to go back.

Ye Olde Inn is part pub, part restaurant. We had a nice dinner in the restaurant part. The stake and ale pie is really good. Friendly staff. Lots of space.

FAO: management , Usually we visit the ye old inn and there has not been any problems but, today at around 12:30 I visited this establishment with my mum and my auntie. We were in for some lunch. Me and mum ordered ‘the big cheese’ burger and it came out in a timely manner. My auntie had informed the waitress that she was gluten free upon ordering her meal and was assured that she could have the meal and was offered a gluten free bun but did not want that and instead had chips and coleslaw and the burger with bacon and cheese. Everything was nice until… 2 hours later my auntie was violently sick when we were driving along the road and we had to stop so that she could be sick on the side of the road. We believe this was due to some type of miscommunication or misinformation or cross contamination. It’s unacceptable that a person should be violently sick and bring up their whole meal after being assured that their meal was gluten free.

Such a lovely place and atmosphere to eat and socialise in. I did not have to book. Took me and my friend with no issues. Beautiful conservatory restaurant/pub grub. Did not see the accessible entrance but didn't look around. The staff spoke to us. It is just a lovely place. Toilets. Disabled toilet. Baby changing facilities. Could not see any car parking facility.

They advertise real ale & show a Cask Marque plaque but none on. There is pumps but none for sale or management can’t change barrel. Sign of a poorly run pub & they’ve lost a lot of trade from us.

I had the Sunday chicken roast, and my niece had the Sunday beef roast. Both were great, but we slightly preferred the chicken. The sides were wonderful also. I was so happy that everything was seasoned properly. Other places seem to use too much salt. Next time, I might ask bit more gravy.

Food was terrible never visit again must have new manager as changed completely. Also very scruffy now place could do with a good scrubbing ( especially the seats .)

Apart from the greasy big nosed bar thing well worth a visit

Very nice location, especially for summer! The waiters are very kind and the service was good

If you are looking for really bad nachos than this is the place for you. A dish that is so hard to get wrong but somehow they manage to do it. Very little cheese seemingly thrown on top of the chips combined with a couple of jalapeño slices and the smallest side dishes of guacamole, salsa and the worst sour cream I’ve ever tasted. Whoever is working the kitchen should be embarrassed about sending such overpriced crap out.

G Really friendly helpful staff, great service and excellent food. We were also treated to an unexpected evening of song and music from The Ukeleles. Every Monday from 6.30pm , get along there for a real treat.

Veru pleasant drink while staying locally. However, trashed our plans the next day with their no kids dining after 1900 rule

Balmoral chicken was surprisingly tender, a very good dish.

Was in here after a funeral. We were a big group split over several tables. Emotions were obviously high. Laughs were had. Tears were shed. Drinks were spilt. And through it all the staff were very understanding, friendly and accommodating. Thank you

Staff very polite and helpful . Place very clean and plenty of rooms. A few reservations on tables which is very impressive. Toilets immaculate.

Traditional looking hostelry serving superior contemporary fare alongside pub favourites. Friendly staff. Clean facilities. Outdoor seating and conservatory area.

Decent bar and lounge in the village of Davidson Mains. Large conservatory at the back, looking onto beer garden and kids play area. Very popular for food, especially weekends. Reasonably priced. The better of the two pubs in the area.

Food good however the customer service was shocking. We visited on a Thursday afternoon and was told well behaved dogs were allowed in the bar. The pub bar was relatively busy so we ordered our food and drinks. Just then an elderly male came in and started to clear his throat and started spitting on the pub carpet. He obviously had some medical condition and continued to clear his throat from the phlegm and every few minutes went outside to cough up his mucus. Due to this we asked the barman if we could be moved. He agreed that we could eat our food in the conservatory out of this males way. The conservatory was almost empty with the exception of 2 other tables. Our food arrived 15mins later and we were just tucking in when a staff member approached us and told us we had to either sit outside (it was raining and cold) or sit back in the bar as we had a dog with us. We were absolutely horrified as we'd just started eating. This staff member was quite rude and refused to listen when I tried to explain that the bar staff had said that we could be in there. We were made to sit back in the bar and carry all our food, drinks, cutlery and coats. Terrible experience and we'd never go back after being treated like that. Shame as food wasn't bad but it was cold by the time we were moved.

Lovely food and very attentive staff. Good selection.

Inedible food. Dry Balmoral chicken and the chilli was all spice and no flavour. Service was brilliant which gave the review one star. Would have given the service 5 stars. Table of 11, bill of £350.

Ye Olde Inn is a nice pub with friendly, attentive staff. The lounge would be a great place to bring the family for a meal if the quality of food was better.

Had a family gathering here. Service was great and the inferno burger I had was superb

Two bar pub, basic bar, nice lounge with a conservatory, good range of tasty pub food, and two cask ales, can be busy at the weekends.

Decent restaurant with tasty food (Steak & Ale Pie was great!)

Food was good, service was a bit slow but busy for the number of staff on duty, very pleasant staff though, working hard.

We visited last Sunday party of 7, really disappointed with the food and the service, the food was cold, the fish came battered instead of breaded as requested and minus the garden peas that were ordered by the time the missing peas arrived we had finished our meal and the waiter seemed to be annoyed that we no longer needed them. We finished our meals but never saw a waitron after they took our order so we didn’t have the opportunity to neither replenish our drinks nor order a dessert, we won’t be back the standards have definitely dropped and there are better places deserving of my money.

Had a great time here Staff very friendly & helpful Menu had plenty of choice & was pub classic style Prices good Food mostly delicious apart from the peas with my scampi & chips A bit dried out so chewy Would have preferred mushy peas as offered with the Fish & chips Overall good meal & night out Will go again

Friendly staff, drinks good food a massive let down. Will come back for drinks but won't be back for food.

Nice pub, only popped in for a quick lunch, the fish and chips was delicious and the staff were polite. I recommend parking in the Tesco round the back of the pub.

Great entertainment on the weekend. Would definitely recommend

Public bar has a limited range of beers toilets to be upgraded not very clean

We were there on Saturday the 28th of January for my wee Grans 91st birthday. The staff were fantastic throughout, the meal was lovely with clean plates all round and we were lucky enough to be seated in the beautiful conservatory. Thank you for a memorable time. We will definitely be back. Xx

Very friendly to locals, food perhaps surprising great, feels safe.

Excellent food and service staff so helpful and polite definitely recommend it 💯 ❤️

Joined a friend for lunch, both were greeted by staff and shown to our table and given a menu, food was excellent, and served quickly and efficiently.

Returning to SA in 3 days time.Have been longing for fish & chips. Ye Olde Inn delivered a DELICIOUS much needed meal.Thank you .

Great atmosphere and great food and drink

Fab layout to cater for everyone - we visited for a meal and it was excellent!

It's a good option for a pint and a bit of grub. Decent prices , staff and 2 bars one for the footy and one for the family .support your local..
