The best restaurants serving British food in Edinburgh and Lothian

Very nice food really enjoyed it

Great location, nice room and good value for money compared to others in surrounding areas. My partner did accumulate a few small bites in the night from the bed (possibly bugs) and construction work outside was a nice wake up call but none the less the hotel was nice so I’d stay here again. On another day neither of the 2 negatives might occur.

Didn't have a reservation but they fit us in and were very gracious. We had an excellent meal. My super picky husband loved the steak pie. I had salmon which was perfect. The Sticky Toffee Pudding was the best I have ever had (even better than my homemade to be honest!). We had a very nice meal there.

Delicious cocktails and staff couldn’t do enough. Worth a visit for sure - hidden gem in Edinburgh

One of the best Wetherspoons outlets I have visited. Even although I have only visited a handful of times not being from Edinburgh but Glasgow.... We always visit when through for the day or going to the theatre. A pub soaked in history (as they all are) but the staff are tremendous and although service industry is tedious at best they all seem to enjoy it and make it worth their own while and for the customers too. Brilliantly placed within Leith walk and the shopping centre and more recently a tram stop next door. The food is always 10/10 and the drinks are great too.... With some of the best prices around. Such a shame this place closes it's doors for the last time on Sunday 3rd of November.... Gone but not forgotten, never forgotten! 👍

The brie and cranberry toastie was delicious.

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.

Myself and work colleagues came here for a works night out. We booked the table weeks in advance for food amd drinks. When we turned up we got our table right away and we ordered drinks. The drinks were really nice and we enjoyed them. We ordered another round and we waited 30 minutes for the cocktails to arrive. When we went up to order food we got told they were not serving food. When we asked why as we had booked in to get our dinner. We got told that they had a table of 30 coming so they were too busy to take any more food orders. We ended up drinking the rest of our drinks and left. We thought it was disgraceful that we booked weeks in advance for food to be turned down on the day. I think thats awful customer service and I don't think I'll be back again.

Very pleasant pub. Just had a drink

Food is lovely at that pub.It's a nice quiet place

Excellent advice and help from Janet from the Hermes perfume counter - she was extremely knowledgeable about all the Hermes perfumes - a credit to John Lewis.

Good branch, staff very friendly and helpful. Thanks to Elizabeth in cafe and Marilyn in deli counter. Both went out their way to be helpful and friendly. Got some nice Christmas items too, thanks!!!!

It had to be yhe worst place I've been to the place was filthy the staff had not got a clue in how to serve customers if and when you got served. It the best thing that could have happened was not to renew the lease

We booked this afternoon tea as a treat whilst away for a few days in Edinburgh but can honestly say it is the worst customer service we have received anywhere. To start, we were kept waiting for 20 minutes, after being seated, before anyone came to speak to us and the room was freezing cold. Food was reasonably nice but when asking for another pot of tea, which we had been advised was included in the extortionate price of the afternoon tea, they simply topped up the existing tea bag with hot water. When we asked for a new tea bag you would have thought we had asked for the world! Everything seemed to be too much trouble and made us feel as though we were making a fuss. There was a teaspoon of jam provided to accompany two scones and when we politely requested more jam we were told this was not possible as it had all been measured out according to the bookings for the day....unbelievable! A little more thought and consideration about the customer experience would have made all the difference but sadly we would not recommend this afternoon tea at all, you would do better in the regular cafe with a sandwich, piece of cake and cup of tea.

Met with ex- school friends for coffee etc arranged by school development office.
