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

Unpretentious, friendly, homemade, affordable. Not easy to find cafe's like this so close to the city centre.

Qué bueno tener este pequeño 'puesto callejero' en el hermoso parque Inverleith. Los cafés son frescos, fuertes y buenos y los postres rotativos pueden tener sus viejos favoritos como galletas de chispas de chocolate o nuevos artículos imaginativos que puede descubrir. Me encanta que siempre tengan un tazón de agua fresco para perros. ¡Toma una cuppa y disfruta del parque!

Bistro a Leith edinburgo. .. Piccolo locale solo pesce ma di ottima qualita'. Rapporto con prezzo piu che buono. Servizio ottimo con vista su canale water in zona molto gradevole

Had a lovely time at the Raeburn, Damien and Kieran were amazing, great food and great vibes

Ate here for lunch and had the soup of the day with a side of truffle & parmesan hash brown chips! Food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. A nice atmosphere in a beautiful area of Edinburgh.

Really amazing food, so glad we stopped by. Sunday lunch is 10/10 and the macaroni cheese was delicious. Will definitely be back.

Great atmosphere and so many wine choices. The staff are also helpful if you're unsure what to get

Had a fantastic evening, really welcoming and all the staff were amazing. Live music was on and this was excellent, really great atmosphere and will be back.

This restaurant was very busy on our visit, it is also dog friendly if you want that facility. We were put on a lower table because we had 2 dogs , but the restaurant was very busy and quite noisy as it was a Friday evening. The food and drinks came quite quickly considering how busy it was, good choice of both but portions were not that big. We didn't have desserts but menu looked good.

Such friendly staff welcomed us all and our dog. So helpful. Lovely comfy sofas and a relaxing glass of wine. Ideal after a tiring day at the festival.

Stopped by here on the way home. The place was empty but the kids corner was a bonus for us and kept our 3 yr old son happy! Menu doesn't have much choice but the food was delicious! We had chicken burger and an old Smokey burger. No complaints! Staff and punters were friendly an we will definitely be back again. I dont know why there wasn't more publicity about this place as it defo needs it. Come here if u like no no fuss good pub grub and a place for the kids to play.

Broccoli Soup was watery and too salty. Cheese scones to accompany were unavailable at 1.00pm lunchtime. Bruschetta at £9.50 consisted of a very modest slice of toasted sourdough with some tomatoes and a small amount of mozzarella with a few salad leaves. Very poor value even for overpriced Edinburgh.

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.

I’m an Edinburgh resident and also a Friend of the National Galleries, and, for the last sixteen years or so, this has been a favourite spot of mine for lunch or coffee. However, I am so disappointed by recent visits and am reluctant to visit again. After attending an exhibition today, I bought an iced coffee for my son. The woman who served us was rude - she was also very unhelpful to a Spanish family before us in the queue - and, although we paid extra for syrup to be added to the iced coffee, hardly any actually was. Prices are really expensive now, portions smaller, the choice more limited and friendly service is sadly lacking, so what is there left to love?

The food is great and the service is great. Really enjoy getting food from here!
