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

The pub was well designed and loved the Frankenstein coming down from the ceiling. The drinks were delicious but for a gothic pub we found that the music was awful. It was the type of music you'd expect to hear being played at a club for people in their late teens early twenties. Not the music you'd expect in a gothic pub

Friendly staff, very nice music! I asked for recommendations and got a very nice and sweet whiskey that’s not on the menu!

Didn't eat here,but a great pub,service to match.Orkney Bitter is ace.

Great little pub, cosy and welcoming. Bit wary of the food, we sat where we could see the so called chef microwaving the food. Dressed in hoodie and jeans drinking can of Monster. Reflection in microwave of him biting his nails and picking his nose. Rather unpleasant! Barman nice and friendly, definitely go for a drink and maybe ask to see the chef first

Centrally located on the Royal mile so we called in here as we were tired and hungry and thirsty only had some cokes and loaded fries one pornstar martini (which wasn’t great) but the food was really nice and hit the spot. Nice atmosphere and interior

Great gastro pub - excellent food, drink & service. Best work Christmas meal I think I've ever eaten. Hardly mass catering as we'd been reduced to a table of four and all had the veggie haggis Wellington. Only one proper vegetarian amongst us but it really was excellent. A consolation in troubled times.

Great we find after being at the rum festival in the assembly rooms in October. We had a delicious meal sharing pulled beef Nachos to start they were the best ever!! I had the garlic chicken schnitzel which was really tasty, my bro had fish n chips which looked the biz. Delicious food washed down with innes & gunn. We shall be back again thanks 😊

Always go here for breakfast you can't get any better for the range and price

Great service and advice from Ryan!!

Lovely little bar with a great staff. Food was on point and a great whisky flight for dessert

I hope the staff have woken from their slumber by the time tourist season hits the Royal Mile. It wasn't even that busy with customers. Maybe 5 covers. We were acknowledged quickly with menus. 👍 We pointed out to them that something had been spilt on one if the chairs at our table. Nothing was done about it or even acknowledged. 👎 Then part of our order had been forgotten about. I had to chase this up. 👎Then the table next to us sat the entire time we had eaten, and drank... and used the restrooms before leaving and they still hadn't even had a menu put in front of them. 🤦‍♂️They also had to chase them up. The food itself was nice.👍 (Albeit you're paying tourist royal Mile Edinburgh prices). So a bit of a shame really. Could definitely do better.

First time in Edinburgh with this wonderful hotel 🏨 😍. The room with amazing view, the stuff in the main reception they are really wonderful, kind, friendly 😀. The breakfast was delicious delicious 😋 😍. Thanks a lot for this amazing hotel 🏨 ❤️.

I don't often leave reviews but I had a lovely first visit here this morning with my baby and daughter. It was a very cold December morning so we nipped in to warm up (no booking). We ordered a latte, kids hot chocolate and a millionaires shortbread. Coffee was lovely and strong, kids hot chocolate was delicious (the waitress asked if we wanted it in a cup or a takeaway cup and if she would like a straw) and the millionaires shortbread made in house was one of the best I've ever tried. Excellent hospitality, very friendly and had a lovely visit. Will definitely be back. Thanks.

The Bothy is both charming and comfortable, especially for a restaurant paired with a quaint hotel (The Murrayfield). Kyla and the restaurant staff were exceptionally accommodating and welcoming in every way. We genuinely felt like family, not customers. Well done!

live music, great atmosphere and friendly staff.
