The best restaurants serving British food in Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh and Lothian

We loved having a drink here. Great vibe and lovely decoration. We did not have food, only drinks and very happy with it.

My sister and I ran into this pub to use the toilet, she used it first, but as I have toilet issues (IBS), i asked my sister to please hurry as I was going to soil myself. In the urgency she opened the door to the singular cubicle the pub has to offer and let me in to do my business as she fixed her tights and long embellished skirt as I finished up. Once we left we wanted a soft drink but the barman refused to serve us on account of us both being in the same cubicle at one time. I understand why he said this- drug use at the moment is absolutely rife, I work in a small town bar myself so I know. But suffering with what I do, and after being embarrassed like that in front of an intimate pub setting, plus my knowledge of bar staffs ideas being unshaken even in the face of customers reasoning, I didn’t even bother to dispute. I just left embarrassed. I do think writing this would hopefully help someone else in my situation. Nobody should soil themselves waiting for their family member to finish using the solitary toilet on offer- out of fear of not being served at the bar. Was disappointing to be honest, as the last time I was here the pub reeked of urine, but I gave it a second chance this time, and I was proved wrong as a result. I hope the bar staff see this and realise that their unwelcoming attitude should be given with factual knowledge rather than just their own notions

I have just had a carvery lunch with my sister. and we were made to feel very welcome from the moment we stepped in the front door! We were shown to our table which wasn’t quite as comfortable for our needs as we would have liked and I had forgotten to mention on my booking about having a booth close to carvery so we could manage to carry our plates to the table, I asked if it was possible to move and Pamela very quickly managed to move us to help make things easier for us then she continued to be super helpful and attentive to our and every other customers needs that she was serving! She is a real asset to your company and you can tell she enjoys her job as she goes the extra mile for her customers. The meal itself (we both had the carvery) was hot, fresh and delicious and served by a very jolly, friendly helpful chef, we both also had really yummy desserts that again were freshly made to order, All in all I can definitely say we will back in the new year to enjoy more of your friendly hospitality! I would give everyone we dealt with five stars! We thank you for your help and assistance when required!

Found this place by chance and absolutely love it. I didn’t catch the name of our waitress but she was really lovely and very attentive. Great atmosphere! Delicious food and the cocktails were lovely.

Muy bonito lugar. Estuve aquí primero para tomar una copa por mi cuenta, y más tarde mi marido y yo disfrutamos de un almuerzo aquí. El personal era muy amable y había un ambiente agradable. Solo tuve un día en Edingburg, pero si alguna vez vuelvo, me gustaría visitar este pub de nuevo.

Staff are rude. Food is terrible. Honestly, if they made the place more welcoming, it would be boss

A very nice Scottish restaurant in the heart of Edinburgh. The afternoon tea consisted of great handmade sandwiches, cakes and cakes. Since a visit to a restaurant in Scotland is generally a bit more expensive, the price and performance here are completely fine. Dinner is after this afternoon tea no longer necessary. We would be happy to come back.

Visited Saturday 14th Dec with friends, we had a booth booked and had a great time. Food was lovely and we were looked after by Darren who was amazing and we will br back for sure. Sharon

Having used this chip shop for a number of years - I won’t be back. Over 20 minute wait in the shop for donner kabab pizza which had 1/4 of kabab meat compared with previous orders I have had over the years. The meat was rock hard & uneditable, extremely disappointing.

People with children ! Do not go to this coffee shop! They genuinely don’t like families, families are not profitable. The old guy told us they were closing in 20 min. We ordered to drink out teas in , there was a table at the end but we then saw one occupied by 3 ladies by the front window , and when we tried and sit there they guy said no. No because we were 2 adults and a child , and the child basically doesn’t count . He didn’t mention the people that took the table about the closing time . Probably because those were more profitable than us Nasty behaviour, discriminatory treatment . I wish I had read the reviews before.

The best cooked breakfast we have eaten in a long time ! Friendly and accommodating staff, we arrived toward the cut-off time for breakfasts and were seated right away. Everything was freshly cooked and perfect. The drinks were also very good and well presented. Highly recommended.

Music strange selection for an Indian restaurant expensive for the amount of food one gets taste average

Hit the spot after a late night graveyard tour 👌

We found this pub by chance as we had seen the lights from across the water. What a great find it was. We decided to eat there on our first night in Leith - and returned for every night we were there. The menu is varied and portions are plentiful. I would recommend the ploughman's board and the cheese board, as well as the fish an chips. Service is quick and the food always arrived piping hot. There is a fantastic variety of drinks on offer, from locally brewed beer and local gin, to an extensive range of whisky. Bar staff were helpful and knowledgeable, going the extra mile to find out about ingredients for us, and giving small tastes to assist choosing drinks. Would we return? We did - for 3 nights running!

Had a couple of beers in here. Lovely place - very traditional with a real fireplace. Great choice of beers.
