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

Visited for lunch and WOW! Service was amazing and so were the sandwiches. Can’t wait to try more of what they offer! We had the fish dinger sandwich, Italian and Lebanese Chicken. All the sandwiches had fantastic flavours. Also great selection of drinks behind the bar.

Cheap tea - bitter and horrible Carrot cake had very little carrot in it and was absolutely full of sugar! Far tooooo sweet! Yuk. Left a horrific after taste in my mouth.

This was my first time here, and It was very good! My only complaints were that the drinks came a while before the food & that the small breakfast egg was quite greasy. The food tasted great though & the presentation was lovely. The tables were cleared efficiently as customers left & it was overall a rather peaceful atmosphere. Would recommend.

Property located about 1 and a half miles from Waverley Station. Hostel accommodation with dormitory style rooms and bunks. Staff are friendly and welcoming, I stayed for 2 nights and felt safe as a solo traveller. There is a bar and a kitchen downstairs. No lifts here and 3 floors so be prepared for stairs!! I was in room 8, which had 10 bunks, room not huge and was hot and stuffy, window only opened a few inches!! There was a fan, but stand was broken and No Where to plug it in!! Above each bed is a night light and phone sockets for charging. There are small security lockers in each room. CCTV in public areas. Toilet and Separate shower room a little cramped, my shower was tepid in the morning but not a bad thing. Could do with a bath mat outside as tiled floors where slippery when wet. Overall the place was very clean, saw staff cleaning all the time! 👍 Naomi on the bar very helpful and friendly! Would stay here again and recommend 👌 Thanks Naomi 😊

The best bar in New Town! Had such a great time here and the bar staff are lovely. Would recommend their tequila selection.

Lekker gegeten in deze bar. Vriendelijk personeel, snelle service en gezellige sfeer. Gelegen aan de grassmarket. We waren er voor de drukte. Lekkere Haggis, mooi opgediend. Dochter vond de Cajun kipburger ook heerlijk! We zouden zeker terugkomen.

We wondered around many other places and decided for this places because of the initial kindness of the waitress when we where passing by and had a question. Went back for lunch and had a great lentil soup, salmon with salad and green juice. We decided to go back the next day, as we wanted something different from the regular pizza, hamburgers and such offered around. It did not disappoint, great place, very small and wonderful views of the castle

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!

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

Had a great time at the Royal Mile Tavern! We stopped in for a drink and loved the lively, welcoming atmosphere. The pub has a great vibe—perfect for relaxing and enjoying a drink with friends. The staff was friendly, and the overall experience was fantastic. Definitely a spot I’d recommend for anyone looking for good drinks and a fun, laid-back atmosphere!

The ambience is great! A great pub! We ate a burger, fish & chips and a salad there. Unfortunately we didn't find the food that good. The fish was very, very soft and far too expensive (20€) and the peas unfortunately tasted very old. My companion Semi liked the meat from the burger. Below was the bar and above was the “restaurant”. I would definitely come back, but only to visit the bar.

I can call it my second home .. secure and amazing ..

Typical Weatherspoons pub very busy. Very good value, especially for location. Edinburgh pubs get full on a Saturday night, so you will need to get out early.

All the Black, Brown, Asian and Latinx queer peeps out there, let's show we bring and deserve love in our LGBTIQ community and that intolerance like the group of people who pushed me tonight do not have a voice in our community. For queer and trans people from all backgrounds, accent and style, I'm sending my love! Thanks for the security guys for being there for me. Cheers 🫶🏻🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Monboddo is a good go-to restaurant while staying at the Doubtree Hilton in Edinburgh. Although I would not have chosen to dine there as many times if I weren't a hotel guest. Location and availability were a great convenience while traveling. The breakfast buffet is extensive, offering the main staples of a hearty Scottish breakfast. I highly encourage patrons to order off the special menu for fresh eggs made to order. The extra few minutes are worth the wait. Dinner there on my first night was good, but nothing extraordinary. The service was pleasant and welcoming. The atmosphere and decor are higher end. In minor detail, there is no place to keep your handbag if you are seated in the central dining area other than your lap or the floor. The round back chairs are not accommodating, so ask for a side booth. The side bar area close by is a very nice area to stay if you are waiting for a table. Overall, it was a fine place to dine during my stay in Scotland.
