The best restaurants serving Other cuisines food in Midlothian Edinburgh and Lothian

We usually enjoy coming here for coffee and cake or a light lunch but today was disappointing. We were there around 1:30 pm. There is a large blackboard showing the soup options, specials etc. and I ordered the roasted squash and red pepper soup with a cheese scone. My husband ordered the cullen skink and a cheese scone. The person taking our order said sorry but that they were out of the roasted squash soup so I ordered the cullen skink. Off she went then came back to say that sorry they were also out of cullen skink. I then asked for the quiche, but they were also out of quiche! At this point I asked why these items were still shown on the board to be told they were too busy to remove them (honestly, how long does it take to wipe things off a blackboard??). We both ended up ordering the broccoli, leek and cheddar soup which was so over-salted that I left more than half.

The new Brasserie is really nice and beautifull furnished. The food was excellent and the menu had a good set up. We had a chowder and the scampis as starter, the duck and the chicken balmoral as main and the panacota at the end. All beautifull served and very tasting. A real good experience and we will come again, thanks

I just wanted to book a table for lunch. It was impossible, in the end I put the phone down. First, I got a robot who kept me waiting, then a man I could not understand, telling me to ring another number. Then a woman who I could not understand, who left me waiting. After about ten minutes I gave up because nobody would take my lunch booking. This was a very bad experience.

La comida era bastante mala y servida helada. Quería enviar mi plato de vuelta para ser recalentado sin embargo servidor no regresó durante casi 30 minutos así que me lo comí. ¡El postre era insípido! El ambiente era agradable y el personal muy amable. No estoy seguro de que volvamos a menos que aumenten su juego.

Friends were staying at The Craigiebield, and were very happy with their room, we decided to have Sunday dinner, sadly roast beef was tough, it had been sliced in very thick slices which didn’t help, I’m sure if it had been sliced thinly they would have got away with the meat being tough. Food was served on cold plates not good when hot food is being served. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Refurb of the hotel has made a great difference.

Okay for a quick bite the price reflects the quality. Typical version of a greasy spoon. The smell of grease sticks to you if you’re ordering to take away best to wait outside.

Went here with my wife. The guy was cooking bacon on a griddle and ignored us. We sat down but nothing changed until a delivery man arrived to take food away. Then, finally after 20 plus minutes the guy turned his attention to us. Did not apologise for our wait. I had scrambled egg and toast. This was OK. However my wife's bacon roll was not good. Bacon dry and too hard to eat. Tea for two was two mugs with a tea bag in each. So the tea was very strong. My wife visited the outdated very dreary loo. There was no music in the cafe which was dim. Dead plants added to the ambiance. At over £12 very overpriced. No tip! Avoid!

Like weatherspoons but it's not

Slow to clear tables. An automatic close n the outside door would improve this cafe considerably. Otherwise a decent buzz.

Dry scone, worst tasting scones ever just crumbled. Won't be back in a hurry. Noisy and dirty, only 1 person serving. Very expensive.
