The best restaurants serving British food in Edinburgh and Lothian

Solo un pub fabuloso en un pueblo fabuloso. El personal es muy acogedor y la comida es fantástica. No es caro, pero realmente buena comida. Sobresalió el vientre de cerdo y el pescado con papas fritas. Gran lugar después de un paseo desde Edimburgo hasta el agua de Leith, y fácil viaje en autobús de vuelta.

I come here for my birthday and loved it, the sandwiches and cakes in the afternoon tea are plentyful and fresh. The tea selection is amazing I had the summer afternoon and it was fab, the views so stunning and their is highland cows on the grounds 😍 and the customer services was literally the best and I do alot of afternoon teas in many places and Derek who worked there was amazing so kind and welcoming the guy makes the experience 100%.

This is one of those wee shops in a wee place that is just phenomenal!! I drive from Edinburgh to this shop because is it second to none!! Always stocked, delicious cakes aswell. I don’t often leave reviews because I’m really hard to please when it comes to service lol, the filling station deserve every word they are fantastic!! The ladies that work there are always banter too which makes it always a pleasure to go in.

The food was authentic Scottish, but very elevated, all locally sourced. The cocktails were delicious!

I booked a table for lunch for 3 people on Saturday 29th March for 1.30 pm. We had a drink at the bar and ordered our lunch. It took an too long to come to our table. We all ordered the same beef and Yorkshire pudding for our main course. The meat was so tough we all had difficulty cutting it or eating it and it came look warm. The Yorkshire pudding was slightly war, dry, not nice. For a Chez Roux restaurant our lunch was very disappointing We did get an apology and our meal was deducted from our bill. We left still hungry. Not what we expected or wanted. Service was extremely slow and no one came and asked if everything was satisfactory. It was a special treat for my son who had come flown up from London and to be with us on Mothering Sunday. All very disappointing. We got married in the hotel and have very happy memories. Such a shame. Not up to the standard we expected. Such a shame. We did get reimbursed for our main course but that doesn`t come near our expectations. Such a shame.

This is a lovely gallery to visit, with the RSA just across from it, it holds paintings by many famous & historic artists - such as Van Gogh, Johannes Vermeer, Claude Monet & many more. Definitely worth a visit & as an art student, it’s influential.

Stopped for lunch and enjoyed a wonderful minestrone soup. Deli is in the front and a small cafe in the back. Very friendly staff, very relaxing and reasonable prices. Definitely worth a visit.

Fuimos a cenar el restaurante fue agradable y la comida era sabrosa la ubicación era conveniente ya que nos estábamos quedando en un ser y estar cerca

As meals for vouchers go this was quite good value. 2 courses from a menu with a reasonable selection.

The chicken and veg and chips were ok but the dry powdery lumpy mash was really bad. My friend had to mix it with the sauce on the table and even then it wasn’t very nice.

Before we arrived had speedy replies ro any questions, owner called us on the day to check when we would be arriving as he had to pop out and didn't want to miss us. On arrival we were met by Emma who was just so friendly helpful and smiley we booked breakfast for the next day for £8 each. We went to the bistro for tea prices of drinks reasonable and for the size of the portions of food the price reasonable again we were served well by Emma. The room was fairly clean and comfortable peeling borders on the walls weren't great and folder on window ledge was quite dusty but otherwise room spot on. Loved the history of the navaar and how they tried to incorporate within the decorations in the room. Was very shocked to arrive back after a day in Edinburgh to find the room had been service and supplies restocked really nice touch. Could hear the bus going passed quite early in the morning but I'm a very light sleeper.

Nice personnel, lovely athmosphere. I had a Laphroaig whisky and and a pink wine. Great to have a drink and a chat.

Thoroughly enjoyed an excellent lunch at the Open Arms. We were seated in the library which was very nice. Varied choice on the menu of Scottish fair. Food was well presented and delicious. The staff were very polite and friendly. It is a very traditional and homely place and a bit different for a special occasion.

Excelente experiencia. Personal encantador servicial y amable. La comida es excepcional y muy buena variedad Vale la pena una visita

Superb afternoon tea Had a lovely walk around the stunning garden and we enjoyed our delicious sandwiches and selections of sweet delicatessen.Our granddaughter enjoyed her selection of vegan sandwiches and sweets .
