The best restaurants in Edinburgh and Lothian

This Cafe 'formerly 'the Thistle' Now 'THE MAISON' is Like finding a golden nugget to me, I like a morning roll such as egg sausage bacon etc. And if there is one thing that annoys me is the dreaded 'dry roll' without spread of some sorts. One of the things i like about this new cafe is ‘They do this... without you having to ask’.. Now after warning 3 Other cafes in the area if they continued the practice of the 'dreaded dry morning roll , I would go elsewhere. Unfortunately they continued to give me thee old Gordon Ramsey trick of sticking the roll on the hot plate & Ignored my customer feed back.… So what did i do?… Well being a man of my word, I do not accept ‘second best’ and Loe and behold the next again Day…. I find this Diamond of a cafe' THE MAISON' who believe in giving the customer what they want … So let me say... this this is the best Cafe in the Tollcross area, so give them a try I guarantee you will not be disappointed and will surely become a regular. Apart from morning rolls & breakfasts they have an Excellent lunch and dinner menu, you will walk away completely satisfied with the food and thee Delightful helpful and polite staff Staff.

Trovato per caso, ma molto soddisfatto. Ottima pizza preparata con ingredienti di qualità ad un prezzo molto contenuto per Edimburgo. Lo consiglio a chiunque voglia mangiare una vera pizza napoletana.

Mi experiencia en Costco fue bastante agradable y estaba bastante satisfecho con mi visita a la sección de patio de comidas. Tenían una gran variedad de productos, aptos para la mayoría. Había probado el hot dog, helado y pollo cocido, el hot dog era realmente barato para que tuviera tanto sabor manteniendo una textura jugosa. El helado venía en una taza pero podía venir en un cono con más sabores pero el de la taza tenía una textura suave como si lo hubieran conseguido de una furgoneta de helados. Había oído hablar del pollo horneado de muchas plataformas de redes sociales en el pasado, pero nunca lo había probado yo mismo, tenía sentimientos encontrados mientras lo comía por razones tales como; había un ligero sabor a quemado que apenas se notaba, estaba caliente que descubrí cuando mi mamá lo mordió. Aparte de eso era bastante agradable y lleno de sabores. Mi familia y yo disfrutamos de nuestra visita y sin duda recomendaría ir.

Enormous breakfasts (meat and vegetarian options) that were delicious in a quirky environment with excellent and friendly service. A must visit cafe in Penicuik tucked out of the way. Highly recommended.

The staff were really friendly and took the time to go through all the different flavour combinations. The price was really good considering all the cakes are baked on-site and they offer a student discount. The white chocolate filled cupcake I had was really moist and tasty without being overly sweet. The latte I had tasted more like a cappuccino but considering how new the business is I feel they are still finding their feet. There are only 2 tables and 2 chairs (so seating for about 4) but the decor is so cute and the seating was incredibly comfortable.

Had our wedding reception here and highly recommend it. Great venue and fab staff. We were married in Greece a few weeks ago and they had our wedding pics running on a tv screen and projector in main hall which was a really nice touch. Canapes were arranged for beginning of the night and a buffet later on with good selection of food.

Best cocktails around Edinburgh and great staff. Best whiskey sours ive had in a long time. The venue itself is unique also accompanied by good tunes.

Gran experiencia. Te sumerge en una atmósfera muy escocesa, donde hemos disfrutado mucho de la comida tradicional y de la música en directo. Muy recomendable!

Realmente delicioso pollo picante don y arroz. La sopa de miso fue muy agradable sorpresa vino con la comida. Delicioso! Gracias 🍱 🍣

Not only excellent food lovely and fresh but the ladies running the business are very polite and great at their job making you feel very welcome, so much more than a burger van, can't recommend enough

Lovely little cafe, beautiful home made cakes. The nicest homemade potato soup I’ve ever had.
