Forage & Chatter Restaurant in Edinburgh

Reviews

1. Dániel Csigirinszkij ★★★★★

   We ate at a lot of wonderful places on our trip to Edinburgh - Forage & Chatter was by very far the best. We had just gotten engaged, and despite my moving the reservation around a bunch, the restaurant was flexible and understanding. The service, throughout the experience, the nicest we have encountered throughout our travels. And the food! Amazing, local produce, in creative, but sizable portions. Without exaggeration, our jaws were dropped from everything - and then, they got us a taxi home AND they gave us coats they heated up! If 6 out of 5 stars were possible, I would - the city is magical, but this restaurant alone would make the trip worth it.

   By far the best meal I had while in Edinburgh. Everything was stellar: the food, the drinks, the service, the atmosphere! Not only did we get warmed coats at the end of our meal, but our servers offered to order us a taxi home. Everything tasted so so fresh and delicious; a wonderful menu and amazing ingredients. I cannot recommend this spot enough!

   Delicious food, slightly pricey, but service is slow. Underground (basement) restaurant but clever design makes it less obvious. Waited about 75 - 90 minutes for main courses, which is abit too long honestly. But all the dishes were really tasty and well executed. Pricing is slightly high. Portions reasonable. Cocktail choices so-so. It’s a basement restaurant but you might not notice - they have created an internal “street” with “windows” into other parts of the restaurant so it feels like you’re looking out onto a street actually.

   Dining experience was fantastic. We had a new server by her own admission, but truly one of the kindest, most friendly servers I’ve ever had. The food was amazing and when it came time for whisky tastings, the staff were very knowledgeable and helpful on recommendations.

   A real hidden gem! (Quite literally hidden haha, the restaurant is on the lower ground floor so make sure you look for the sign of the restaurant around the corner). Amazing food and attention to detail. Taste, presentation, and creativity are all top tier. Would recommend everything we had, including the lamb main (not pictured). Excellent service, staff were friendly and attentive, and the warm coat room is a very nice touch. We felt cozy and comfortable. Definitely the best meal I’ve had in Edinburgh!

   A beautiful experience. Wonderful offerings with an aesthetic appeal that will surely impress, and I'm not just talking about the ambience and interior decor of this old age vibe restaurant. Their foods are a spectacle to witness that will surely have your taste buds pleased. Simply put, it looks good and tastes even better than it looks. The staff and service were marvelous to my partner and I. Their whiskey expert onsite was both informative and humourous. Much welcomed recommendations on not just what to eat and pair what drinks with your meal, but suggestions on where to visit and why. Definitely worth returning, if not for the flare of good dining it'll be for the great company and service offered at this fine place.

   Quirky and cozy spot for delicious locally inspired dishes. Fun drinks. Some of the loveliest desserts, all made in house by a clearly talented chef.

   This a cute cellar restaurant in new town Edinburgh. I admired the simple menu and the welcoming staff. The food did not disappoint, I had the beet salad followed by the sirloin, hubs had the steak tartare and the the fish, it was all great! Service was timed perfectly and was not encroaching. When we did choose a dessert the complementary wine to accompany it was a lovely touch. To top it all off they all had a sense of humour, so if I could give 6 stars I would.

   Lovely atmosphere, beautiful platting and very professional staff! The food was terrific, I would highly recommend the lamb! Only thing is that the portions are on the small side but one starter and one main for dinner are just perfect portions!

   Incredibly well priced, quality of food and standard of service was excellent. This is an absolute must for anyone living in or visiting Edinburgh. Great experience, well worth my time spent there. I got the chance to speak to the owner and you can tell this is an establishment centered around the customer and giving them the best experience possible!
