The best restaurants serving British food in Edinburgh and Lothian

Arrived at this club yesterday 20th November with friends from Hawick before Scotland Japan game for some food (Breakfast) as the game kicked of at1 o'clock. Club busy with people looking for food and was told food does not start till 12 o'clock poor show broughmuir.

You may think I t’s just a toastie but top ingredients and service make it an excellent quick lunch. The Stockbridge Stack is delicious with chicken, ham hock and home-made pesto. The best toastie place out there. Sort the steamy windows!

Decided to go to an independent cafe and saw Poppy. On entering the server wasn't very welcoming and didn't greet me smile etc. The front area is nice and bright and looks inviting. The back area where i sat was a combination of storage and tables. It was very dark and depressing and had a cold feeling. It was like two completely different places. The pot of tea was very average. When I went to pay she didn't tell me the amount just put the card reader in front of me and I had to read the price from there. A very disappointing visit. I won't be back.

Lovely place well served and great staff, the best hot chocolates in town, great treats to eat as well

From ordering to delivery - the people are consistently lovely - especially the man on the phone taking orders - plus food, of course is delicious 👍❤️‼️

Lamentablemente después de servir la gente de Leith durante muchos años Bonita colgó su delantal y vendido su saludable pequeño café. La buena noticia es que se ha comprado por Yoyo que comprensiblemente ha renombraron Yoyo's. misma buena comida casera a precios de ganga, todo servido con una sonrisa

He estado aquí un par de veces desde que me mudé a la zona. Buenos rollos de bacon y salchichas. Vale la pena una visita. Abre a las 5: 30 am entre semana

Just got a fish supper chips were like rubber and the fish was dry it went in the bin £9.40 waisted will never go back to Frankos again

Un pub tan hermoso del siglo XVI. Como aficionado a la historia me encanta encontrar pubs antiguos, así que tuve que visitar este. Está justo al lado del castillo y vale la pena visitarlo. El personal era encantador (no estoy seguro de si es el propietario o no) y muy acogedor. Mi marido y yo teníamos la tabla de queso también, que era realmente encantador y vale la pena el dinero.

Prima pub en een groot assortiment. Wel wat minder sfeervol dan de andere pubs die we in dezelfde week hebben bezocht vandaar 4 sterren

Visited with high expectations, but left disappointed. We arrived on a weekday around 5:30 PM, and the restaurant was very quiet at that time. We ordered a carafe of red wine, the haggis balls, and the beef Wellington for two. The beef Wellington had a 40-minute wait time, which we were informed of in advance. The haggis balls came as a portion of five. They were decent in taste, but nothing particularly memorable. The beef Wellington consisted of six slices (three per person). The meat was tender and juicy, but unfortunately, it wasn’t served hot—it seemed like it had been sitting for a few minutes before reaching our table. We also ordered the pasta with meatballs for our child, which we had read was free during weekdays. However, at the end of the meal, we noticed we had been charged for it. When I pointed this out, the waitress insisted it was only free during weekends. After checking, she came back and confirmed that I was right—it is indeed free on weekdays. The biggest disappointment was the service. After taking our initial order, no one checked on us or asked if we needed anything else. It felt like we were being ignored. To top it off, a 12.5% service charge had been added to the bill—optional, but certainly not earned in this case. In the end, I paid £32 less than the original bill because I had no intention of tipping for such poor service. Whether it was a lack of knowledge or an attempt to overcharge us, the staff didn’t even know (or pretended not to know) their own promotions. Overall, the experience was underwhelming and overpriced. I won’t be returning—and for anyone planning a visit to Edinburgh, I strongly advise looking elsewhere if service matters to you.

What a nice place! The bartender was over the top! a very good talker and he serves amazing drinks! He also charged my phone :)

We stayed at Premier Inn Edinburgh Park earlier this week. If you’re using sat nav be careful you don’t end up on the wrong road!!! Ours sent us to a barriered private road, which I think belongs to the railway. We checked in ok thanks to the lady on the front desk. We booked a PremierPlus room. Was it worth it? Just about I think. It was very handy having a (small) fridge in the room. The rooms AC was excellent. The train service into Edinburgh is excellent taking less than 10 minutes to get to Waverley, and the station is only 2 minutes walk from the hotel. Now the bad part. Our breakfast on the first morning was disgraceful. The sausage was ok, the bacon was just about inedible, it tasted dreadful. The black pudding was swimming in grease on the serving plate. The scrambled egg looked like it had been on the hot counter for hours, but actually it tasted ok. Beans, mushrooms and fried eggs were all dried up. Shocking. We didn’t eat there again during our stay.

Adorable pub. Has live music ever night. We just went in for drinks. They have a really nice selection of Scotch, Gin, Vodka and Beer. They do have non-alcoholic beers as well. The food selections sounded cool but the chef was out sick, so we went next door for dinner.

We have been coming for years to the granary and have always loved it … seeing it change staff many times but Demi’s and the staff are by far the best … we popped in today after a long walk and our 2.5 year old daughter (Lilly) asking to go to “the blue shop” for some brunch which was absolutely amazing … and some top notch mimosas yummy… the staff are so so lovely with our little daughter (Lilly) even getting her to help watering the flowers … would highly recommend time and time again for all occasions xx
