   Having been to this restaurant once or twice before, we generally know what to expect. Warm service, hassle free, cosy atmosphere and on the whole a nice comfortable vibe. We're glad to say, we weren't disappointed. Once again it was great. They looked after our vegans and our 7 year, who was a little picky. The girl who served us, was looking after a number of tables in our wee nook and she handled it all with ease. Another observation about Foresters, is their attention to details. Little things that make everything go smooth. For example: 1.We changed the booking numbers a few days before, they couldn't have been more accommodating.2. They sent out a confirmation email a day before the booking to ensure everything was still as was. This is a nice touch and gives peace of mind to both the restaurant and eaters.3. The welcome you receive is always warm, smiles, natural.4. They made changes to both our meals and our drinks, which they didn't have to. This made us feel kind of special.5. Our 7 year old was given the special treatment, from the servers, with apple juices and a meal made out with the designated menu. This was cute. Thanks to all the staff for makin us feel like superstars

   Delicious Sunday roast! We got the chicken with extra yorkies, gravy and a side of mac and cheese. The best pub roasts I’ve had in a while! Out by Porty you not only avoid the tourist hoards in the city center, it’s also a great destination if you’re continuing your hike down to the beach after summiting Arthur’s Seat. We booked early afternoon, pub was lively but not crammed. Lovely experience, highly recommend a visit.

   I recently visited Guild of Foresters and had an overall pleasant experience. The service was wonderful—everyone was lovely and attentive, which made for a welcoming atmosphere.We decided to try a few different items from the menu. The popcorn chicken was decent, but the portion size felt a bit small for the price. While the taste was nice, the size was a bit of a letdown. We also tried the beef and fish tacos. Both were enjoyable, though I felt they could have been a bit more flavorful. That said, they were still a nice addition to our meal. The highlight of the evening was definitely the dessert. The white chocolate mousse with whiskey was absolutely delicious—a perfect way to end the meal. The drinks we had were also great, especially the mocktail, adding to the overall experience. Having been here before, I know the food is usually decent, and this visit was no exception. I'll definitely be back to try more from the menu!

   Delicious food, tasty beers, very friendly and attentive staff. Our server even gave us some tips on what to do in the city. Would definitely recommend.

   You came for the castle and other sites huddled near the royal mile. However, if you feel adventurous and find yourself near Portobello Beach one MUST refresh oneself here at Foresters Guild. It is a restaurant not to be missed. Creative dishes take the familiar and elevate them to new heights. Start with the haggis over chips or putine. There is a variety of cozy seating areas indoors and outdoors. Excellent helpful staff.

   Absolutely loved the wee beach huts! It was nice to sit outside but still have our own wee space. The food was great. We had the Halloumi Fries (you’ve got to try them!), beetroot hummus with flatbread, aubergine tacos, fish tacos, salt & chilli fries and the Truffle Oil and Parmesan Fries (another fave!) Staff were welcoming and chatty and the sun was out, so thankful for that too ☀️

   The idea behind the roast is great with a board to share out between 2. The meal was incredible and staff were very welcoming and friendly. Worth the journey for that meal and will certainly be back for another Sunday roast.
