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

Possibly my favourite bar in Edinburgh. Cracking atmosphere and incredible selection of drinks. Spent a few hours there last week before a gig, it was all very civil until the 11% porter came out then chaos reigned! Staff are attentive and it’s just a lovely place to while away a few hours.

Didn't eat here but thoroughly enjoyed the couple of hours in here Proper pub,great atmosphere,and rather good beer

The good, the bad, and the Irish was a ton of fun. The cask beer tasty.

The establishment was overcrowded, the food quality was suboptimal, and the service was slow.

Was served by a lovely girl called Iona, she was so friendly and had great recommendations, was spot on with what we’d like - will definitely be back!!

Design and layout of bar first class although people sitting at the high tables behind us, their backsides were just about on our shoulders and not a great outlook when having lunch

i see the store is closing soon and i can see why, I was attended by “G” and it was very impolite and impatient with me and my friends. The food was good but not great.

Great ambience, good food, not all food available. Eclectic service

Friendly staff, good service and nice coffee. Cafe open until 11 every night - perhaps unique in Edinburgh for local night owls like myself.

Good pastry We had the scones and they were delicious On the other hand, the service leaves something to be desired. In fact when you come home it’s hello, what do you want? You don't have time to think, it has to go quickly, the staff is rushing you. I advise you to eat there so you can sit down and have more time to read the menu than to take away.

My mate took me here a few years ago and we always go back when we are back in town. Great old boozer. Best Guinness in town as well.

Was ok. Very busy. Nice decor

Our first stop in Edinburgh was the elephant cafe . Upon arrival at the cafe we were totally surprised that it is opened and that there was no queue . Waited excitedly to be seated and a young lady ushered us to a lovely window seats overlooking the street. Just as we were getting ourselves comfortable, another lady by the name Samiha came by and questioned “who gave you the table “ Honestly we were quite taken aback. Being a well travelled person of my age this was totally not acceptable and plain rude. The second episode was when I went to the cashier to ask if I should order at the counter , the same staff exaggeratedly commented in Spanish (I think) that I was impatient. The episode didn’t end here. Later the same lady, Samiha, found out that I was trying to get her name. She came back and challenged me lecturing me throughout that cafe is very “crowded” ; customers need to wait to be seated. The whole issue is we were ushered to the seats by the window! We did not just barged in! Honestly this kind of behaviour is totally not acceptable . To my worst horror i later found out she is the supervisor of the cafe ! A junior staff who had witnessed all this and was so sweet that she apologised profusely on behalf of the rude supervisor for my bad experience! Fine cafe but be warned of ill mannered supervisor !

The most uncomfortable seats! I paid £80, but it was definitely not worth it. Even if you request a comfortable seat, they won’t let you sit at a decent table. We were crammed in, sitting too close to other people. The food wasn’t good either. Save your money and go somewhere better than this place

Poor customer service. Didn't have what we wanted. Staff spoke very poor English so struggled to communicate this and worse treated us like an inconvenience. I'm sure on a different day they'd be fine but on this day it was not good.
