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

Second time ordering. First was good - both food and promptness of pickup. Second yesterday was bad on both counts. App told me food would be ready in 25 minutes or less - was over 40 minutes. Then even though I was waiting and had given my name, the food still sat for at least 5 minutes before the staff member realized it was ready. On top of that the food itself was very disappointing. Threw out the appetizer (pork) after one bite, spring rolls were soggy, rice was overcooked. Maybe this is due to the festival season? Not sure I will try again.

Wir haben zwei Tage in Edinburgh verbracht, und auch wir wollten uns das authentische "Fish & Chips"-Erlebnis gönnen. Da dieser Standort doch recht gut bewertet ist (und auch gut besucht war), dachten wir, nichts falsch machen zu können hier. Die Speisekarte las sich extrem interessant (ich hätte zu gern die "Braveheart"-Pizza getestet, mich dann aber doch nicht getraut!), frittierte Marsriegel, Dönergerichte und und...natürlich Fish & Chips in diversen Varianten. Wir bestellten also unser Menü, was dann auch prompt in eine Schale gefüllt, mit Vinegar und brown sauce garniert und uns gereicht wurde. Ich glaube, dass ich noch nie so schlechte Pommes gegessen habe, sorry für den Vergleich, aber dagegen sind die Papp-Pommes beim gelben M ein Genuss. Pappig, farblos, leblos, matschig und zudem noch triefend vor Essig (zugegeben, man wird vorher gefragt, ob man denn möchte, und kann durchaus ein Veto einlegen oder auch eine andere Wahl der Sauce treffen. An dieser Stelle trifft den Inhaber also keine Schuld, wenn man mit Vinegar auf Pommes nicht so ganz warm wird. Probieren kann man es auf jeden Fall!). Was unser Geschmackserlebnis aber in keiner Weise verändert hätte. Der Fisch war lauwarm und ebenso matschig, die Panade war aber tatsächlich sehr schmackhaft. Allein dieser Umstand verschaffte meiner Bewertung dann die zwei Sterne. Der Hunger trieb es rein. Ich kann den Hype um dieses Bistro ehrlich gesagt, nicht ganz nachvollziehen. Vielleicht hatten wir auch einfach nur Pech, aber wenn dass die besten Pommes sein sollen, die die Insel zu bieten hat, bleibe ich weiter beim gelben M, da weiss ich wenigstens, was ich (nicht) zu erwarten habe ;)

this spot is great for a late night, when your out and about and need quick, good food, customer service was amazing and food was fresh, great place

First GDK trial ever, and the overall performance was sub-par. I walked in on a dispute between chef and waitress. This escalated quickly into an argument (2 people arguing turned into 3 getting quite loud). I ignored this confrontation, ordered a meal on the digital screen, and still no acknowledgement of my existence. Food was prepared pretty fast, it was the £13.99 gym box. I was presented with a closed box. No confirmation, no thank you, no ‘would you like to confirm the selection’. So I asked to check the contents. I had ordered the famous chilli fries, it seems someone had neglected to sprinkle the ‘special spice’. I asked this item to be replaced. Instead, it was then OVERLY seasoned (exaggeratedly) rendering untouchable. I sat down to eat my meal and the spring rolls were too cold. So I disposed of them immediately and proceeded to the og beef kebab. This was colder than the spring rolls, smothered unnecessarily with excess sauce which I assume assisted, if not caused, the rapid temperature decline. Two bites in, and that was also thrown away as it was inedible. The only thing I enjoyed from the whole experience was the can of 7-up. Won’t be returning to any location anytime soon, won’t be recommending it to friends or family either. A BIG thumbs down from me.

Worst ice cream I ever had. Don’t be fooled about the queue. It’s mostly because of the location not necessarily the food quality. Super overpriced for such a low quality, awful food.

The worst pasty I have ever had in my life. Overly priced and inedible. The little meat that was in it was grisly. Apparently it was steak 🤷‍♂️. The only bit I ate was the pastry rim that your supposed to discard and threw away the rest. Oh and the coffee was luke warm.

Fast delivery, good food and great price.

Delicious food, excellent service and good value for money. Varied menu too. So good we went twice! Highly recommended

food was late. arrival time changed 3 times. said it was out for delivery then didn't come for an hour. cold on arrival

Well .. did you drive by this black box 'the Ranch' a few times wondering what's inside? You'll find a bunch of friendly people, it has seating up to 20 .. and for the rest? .. fabulous burgers, fries and things. I won't give any marks for athmosphere .. none to give, but nothing negative either. It is, after all, a take-out/delivery place too, but .. sitting in is also fine.

Easily the tastiest pork sandwich I have had in my memory. I choose the sage and onion stuffing with apple sauce and every bite was delicious! Coming from the states and having had a lot of pulled pork sandwiches, I was pleasantly surprised by how much better this is in comparison. Was curious about adding the stuffing but it resulted in an especially succulent result. I would not hesitate to return and if I lived in Edinburgh, this would easily replace my weekly lunches at Chick Fil A!

New Wing Stop in St James Quarter in Edinburgh is a must try. The service was super friendly (I wish I got the name of the young female), and wait was not too bad based on how busy/rushed off their feet they were. Would go again!

I used collection for my family, very tidy clean shop. Nice local shop kebab and chips very good. Parking free

I asked specifically if there was onions in the sweet chilli chicken as most bought in ones do. I have a onion intolerance I was assured by the staff member there wasn’t onions in the mix - when taking a bite I was unsure and the after the second I tasted a onion and then looked through the mix and there was onions I spent the next hour and a bit vommiting. I would hate for someone who was actually allergic to be told wrong information. It is shocking, staff should know what is in things or if unsure check the ingredients before selling a product, I would have just had a ham and cheese and wouldn’t have been a waste of money and me being ill. Staff member was really nice which made this more of a let down.
