The best restaurants in East Lothian Edinburgh and Lothian

My son bought this deep fried beef dish. I took it back to say it wasn’t fit for human consumption and would like a full refund to be shouted at and asked to leave the shop. The lettuce was off and the beef wasn’t any better also dish looked as dry as an Arabs sandle . I Wouldn’t give this to a dog definitely won’t be back. (Food still under scientific review) lol

I love the food here, the prices are a bit expensive however it’s definitely worth it as a treat in my opinion. I love the chicken skewers, the rice and curry sauce, the chicken chow mein was also pretty good. The staff are okay, not overly friendly which i enjoy I’m not too keen on waiters putting on a full performance to possibly get a tip, staff in here just do their jobs, love that. Overall it’s a pretty casual atmosphere with options to sit in or takeaway, or for delivery. However it is closed Monday and Tuesday, but open every other day from 5-10pm however 9pm cut off time for sitting in. Street parking is available however it may be difficult during busier/tourist periods. Pets not welcome.

Where to start. First the elderly lady behind the counter didn't won't to serve us or anyone for that matter, so a man took over. The large breakfast my husband ordered was no bigger than my small one, both breakfast were luke warm, and the drinks barely hot. Apparently they aren't allowed to sell the meals to hot? if this is right they should install a microwave somewhere so the customer can heat there own own meals.

Great food and drink. Friendly pub.

Wee visit to Hugo's Hall's Cafe. Lovely fresh environment and lovely friendly staff. Lovely slice of Victoria sponge and a glass of Irn Bru. Sponge was very yummy 😋

Always says they are open when they aren’t. Take your money and don’t refund it unless you chase it. Opening times are unpredictable. That being said this place used to do my favourite crispy shredded chicken in spicy chilli sauce, all of a sudden they don’t even know what it is. It’s on their menu but they say they don’t know what it is. Crazy crazy place.

I was overcharged over 2 weeks ago. Still haven't received my refund. They are not allowed to give refunds in the Tranent dominos. So I had to go through a refund centre. Ridiculous. When I try to phone them. I get cut off after a minute of waiting. I will be avoiding this branch.

over 2 hours late and food was cold

Delivery was a bit late, ok I’ll phone- got message they are closed, turns out it’s an old ansaphone message . Food delivered ten minutes late - that’s ok, however the lemon chicken had no lemon and was tough as old boots, inedible. Nicely offered free lemon chicken next time- not really what I would prefer as I am visiting friends. Overall a fairly average meal. With confusing menu as regarding sauces. Sorry- but can’t recommend

£44 for four fish suppers… we expected big things from these. Unfortunately, we were all disappointed. The quality of fish was poor, very dry and lacking any flavour. Batter was also quite poor and the chips were… well they were OK I guess but only just. One to avoid I’m afraid, can’t see any awards coming Bene’s way on this performance.

When I called to make an order for collection I was told 15 mins only to be left waiting a further 20 mins on arrival. While I was waiting the delivery bag was filled with 4 delivery's that sat on the counter the whole time & was still there when I eventually left. The guy's attitude was awful. If it hadn't been for the girl delivery's driver going through the back I would still have been standing there. I called out to them twice and I was completely ignored. Now on to the food ......... cooked within and inch of it's life. The pork was as dry as a stick, the fried rice looked like boiled rice, no egg or colour to mention, the chicken curry has more onions and sauce than chicken. It's a shame you can give minus star reviews.

This has got to be the dirtiest Costa I’ve ever been in. Two staff members on. Area at the back was full of tables covered in leftover trays. Crumbs everywhere. Had to move trays out of the way to get a seat. No one clearing up. Costa get your act together. I’m a regular customer but won’t be back to this branch. Get your act together.

Popped in today for the first time and we got some sweets around £7 while waiting then we were £12 for 2 crepes with ice cream, we were advised 5 minutes but then 10 minutes as the machine wasn’t on but took around 15 minutes. The first arrived hot and looked amazing but after 3 bites I had a dark hair visible on my fork wrapped in the Nutella chocolate and crepe! Friendly assistant but with long hair it should really be tied in a bun or have a hair net on and not in a loose ponytail when around food. Pointed it out and I got an apology and offered a fresh one but didn’t want one as that just put me off and my partner too who didn’t even eat 1/2 of his as he was as shocked and disappointed as I was. I asked for a refund on the one I sent back and really should have been refunded for them both. Pick and mix ok, some sweets that tasted horrid and not great quality for the price paid. Left the shop disappointed.

Tried to go here to take out a family member for a coffee. There is no disabled access. So therefore we could not go in to look at the shop items or go to the cafe. No help offered either. What a shame!

I ordered my food 2 HOURS AGO . Absolutely outrageous. My food was stale by the time it got to me .
