The best restaurants serving British food in Edinburgh and Lothian

We had 2 dinners Here, and Both were amazing! The Service Staff were very Professional and friendly. Our waitress was very Kind and Even Made a List of places for us to visit, since it was our First time in the city. The Atmosphere was very cozy yet chic. The Food and Cocktails were delicious. The also have an amazing selection of Desserts. I would definately come here again. The Spence is a Must visit for anyone coming to visit the City.

Can't post a review as wasn't dog friendly

Fantastic local pub. Very welcoming. Great atmosphere.

I had a very disappointing experience at The Voodoo Room. I saw people openly using cocaine in the restrooms, which was completely unacceptable. In the concert room, many were excessively drunk, and when I tried to pass through, some reacted aggressively rather than making space. The overall atmosphere felt unsafe and poorly managed. I wouldn’t recommend it.

Great place to go in the city centre with very friendly atmosphere and staff very alert and friendly. Good choice of food but my favourite chicken snitzel. Coming again on Wednesday and looking forward to it

The highlight of our trip to Edinburgh. Excellent food and magnificent service!

Had a voucher for 2x 2 course lunch but will never buy one for anyone in the future. Staff were very attentive and beautiful room but 1. Staff took us into brunch room initially rather than lunch area 2. Starter of chicken liver parfait was on inedible bread, hard to even cut through . 3. Main of breaded haddock was very bland and both of us left half our dishes. 4. Had 2 lattes (without a sniff of a biscuit) The bill for these was £14.95 - £4.95 for service which was fine but made me wonder if we would have been billed for service if we had not added coffees?

Great pub! If you want to visit here in the evening be early, we tried to go 3 times and it was so full! But it is definitely worth it. Great food and good beers. We tried the Balmoral chicken and it tasted so good! The customer service was great and the pub is very cozy!

Friggin best Sunday Roast. Potatoes had the perfect crisp. The beef was perfectly cooked with a sear. And Yorkshire pudding that’s better than House of Prime Rib.

Great time again everything was great our server Dom was very polite and helpful our young guest was a bit impatient to get her dessert he was kind by getting her dessert first and then getting the rest of the table there's

Lunch with 3 work colleagues. Service was slow and place was virtually empty. March 25% off food and drink. 3 main meals were OK but my main of fish and chips was dreadful. Batter was brick hard and finding the half fish fillet inside was a challenge. Fish was dry and over-cooked and batter felt like it had been double fried. Very very disappointing at £19.50 We all had dessert which was ok. Had to reiterate my complaint to waitress twice before anything was done to compensate for the fish disaster. Only when I said I won't be back again did she offer to reduce the fish bill. Shocking attitude given the choice of places to eat in Edinburgh. You'd think they would want to keep you coming back for more !!!!!

Good bar, good service but really average food, basically average supermarket food. But if you want just a drink, good atmosphere

Really enjoyed our visit here, the staff were fantastic and couldn't do enough for us

Drinks were okay, food is significantly underwhelming, website displaying food is not accurate. They advertise 50% off cocktails and pairings all day and every day, but they over price drinks so that it offsets their price. Ya I got suckered by all the signs of discounted drinks and low priced food. But literally got less then what I paid for in food, and realized the scheme on drinks upon entry. I think McDonald's is making an equivalent burger, but for cheaper. Also as the locals would say, their internet is rubbish. Signed: A Hungry Canadian.

Excellent service and excellent quality service
