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

Came here for the rugby. Great pub. Great welcome. Great staff. Lovely beer.

Nice place if the sun is shining you can sit outside. Inside lacks a bit of atmosphere - needs some art on the walls/more soft furnishings. Coffee ok but not very hot. Scones very poor. Quantity rather than quality. Very big but heavy and not tasty or pleasant to eat. Shame as scones are not difficult to make. Try smaller and better baked. Get a decent recipe. Nice friendly staff.

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.

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.

Food was disappointing Starter appeared after main meal Partner and my food delivered at different times

Had a wee hit to eat and a couple of pints, doss

I was being interviewed for a major newspaper snd loved telling the reporter the history of The Little Kremlin. The ambience was quiet and the service was superb.

Really gorgeous bar and restaurant with a lovely club area upstairs. We had a cocktail making class with Euan/Ewan (sorry I don't know the spelling!). He was a great teacher, good fun and very accommodating, which just added to the experience for our friend's hen party! So big shout out to him. Thank you for a great time, we will definitely be back.

My brother and I popped in for coffee. Staff were welcoming and friendly - showed us to a table for four next to the window, so we could enjoy the lovely view in the sunshine. Service was great and coffee delicious. We liked it so much that we went back later for lunch. Again, the staff were helpful about a nice table away from the entrance and bar. Deliciously chilled Chilean Sauvignon blanc and a very good soup of the day. We also shared a portion of chips and they were fantastic - crisp on the outside and fluffy within. Altogether a great experience on a day when, for sad personal reasons, we especially appreciated being looked after! Thank you.

Visited this place several times and it is always very welcoming with good service. The menu is extensive and the food delicious. Good prices too. And of course a wonderful view from many of the tables.

Walked all the way along from the rail bridge end looking for a place for coffee and glad we chose Orocco Pier. Staff were very friendly and welcoming, service was good, view out over the Forth was excellent and the toilets were very good. Often places let themselves down by neglecting the toilets. All in all, very happy to have dropped in.

Ivan was a delight as a waiter. Very kind, efficient and easy to accommodate any requests given to him.

As the title of the review said says, don't get caught out with a parking ticket. Make sure you register your vehicle either at the hotel reception or the bar within 10 minutes of arriving, or you will get a ticket. As for the establishment itself, this is a Wetherspoons which, if you are familiar with the chain, is the same as the others, so you know what you'll be getting. It's in a suburb of Edinburgh. The main difference between this and others that I have visited is that the building is less spectacular, but everything else is as you would expect.

I almost never leave reviews, but I felt I had to because I felt so ripped off here. I'm a local and had time to kill before work so I popped in for lunch. The staff were friendly and the service was quick, but I got the smallest piece of avocado toast I've ever seen for a tenner. I'm still hungry. I sort of knew it would be a mistake to go somewhere touristy but now I know I definitely won't be back. There are nicer places on Cockburn Street, never mind the rest of the Old Town.
