The 30 Best Park in Edinburgh

“This place is incredible!! The food was reasonable for a high end product and atmosphere. From the moment we entered the staff were very kind and helpful, asking us about our day, and offering to take our coats. Moments like this made it better than better. The food and drinks menus were both detailed which made it perfect for an overthinker like myself for picking the perfect drink. The food menu was the same, and described exactly what you will get. My partner and I shared the chateaubriand which was a perfect serving for us (with the extra sides) the beef melted in our mouths, and the sauces were amazing, I’d especially recommend the Malbec and bone marrow jus, it was an excellent extra for the beef. Sides were perfect, the broccoli tasted Smokey and cooked perfectly to be soft with a small crunch, the spinach was refreshing and lemony, the mushrooms were peppery and were a larger portion, and the chips were lovely and crispy with a fluffy inside. The staff were great, so attentive and helpful with our questions and chit chat. I couldn’t recommend this place more, for a high end meal with a better price tag than some steakhouses. Amazing!!”

“We’ve been to the Park Bistro twice now and it’s been fantastic each time, the food is great quality and all of our dishes have been delicious (*except for the Lemon Meringue Pie which was disappointing with solid meringue and soggy base but I have very high standards as my Mum makes the BEST) The Biscoff Toffee Waffle is epic! The Pork Tenderloin was incredible and everyone enjoyed it both times we’ve been. The staff are friendly even when it’s busy, memorable place.”

“Went for the first time today for the driving range, really enjoyed my time and all staff were so lovely! I arrived with nothing, I’ve never played golf and I don’t own a set of clubs. They provided me with everything I needed and all the information. Great place to go and lovely scenery with easy access.”

“Great place for young males and females to play/be coached in football. Good floodlighting and artificial surfaces. Only major difficulty is very restricted off road parking. All in all a great amenity for youngsters interested in football.”

“A lovely play park to keep most ages entertained. It has an accessible swing, although this does require the user to be able to be lifted into the swing, with optional chest plate for security. The additional advantage being a Scottish water tap at the entrance.”

“Beautiful green place with the Water of Leith path and river. Great for any kind of activity as well as for relaxation and pleasure; dog walking, bird watching etc. Lovely. Absolutely lovely!”

“Small nice park. Playground for children. Large trees for shadow.”

“Fantastic park to let your four legged friend run around. Our dog loves it.”

“Park with childrens play area free parking and toilets. Theres a scenic coastal walk to Dysart and easy access to imposing Ravenscraig Castle”

“Good fun for a night out and great that you can take a drink around with you. Several members of our group couldn't make it last minute but the staff were kind enough to give us vouchers to redeem the games at a later date so we didn't lose money (valid for 12 months). Both Amie and Cerys had a lovely manner about them and were so helpful. We had a fun time.”

“This place is brilliant. Lots of parking spaces. The toilet is closed now. The Loch is beautiful to walk round lots of ducks & swans to feed. It can be easilu walked round in 20mins with a slow dog. There are also woody walks you can do as lots of foresty areas. The Playpark is just around the corner and it's a good one! Lots for all kids ages to do definately reccommend here.”

“Park has had a major uplift. Kids love the swing park. Dog walkers love it as it's all flat. The coffee cabin a must for a coffee they even have water bowls for the dogs. If owner gets their way a lot more to come. Looking forward to next walk”

“best walking place, All the dogs you meet on this trail appear really friendly”

“Nice place for a stroll with kids or dog,see squirrels,ducks,swans and plenty other wildlife.Small cafe which is good.”

“Having done a fair few DIY jobs over the past year.and not having the tool/fixing/item that I needed this was my first port of call not that 2 letter place nearby .highly recommend as your first place to look. John Allen”

“Easy to find and staff are a great help”

“Birthday party for 6yr old went very well. They were well entertained for and hour and a half and came away saying they had the best time ever. Two big slides were a hit as well as the small soft play - mainly the slide and ball pool. Pizza and chips for the meal was just what the kids wanted after a hard morning bouncing.”

“Site staff are friendly and very welcoming, the site is clean, shower and toilet facilities are immaculate. The site was packed but there was still a relaxed friendly atmosphere about the site. We will visit again on our next excursion north and would recommend this site. To the staff……great work guys it’s nice to see people that understand the value of customer service.”

“We loved staying here, we got everything we needed. The reception staff were absolutely splendid to deal with, particularly after being aware we had just got off a flight from Australia. The rooms were clean and pleasant. The location is a convenient 15-20min walk to the city centre. Any buses or trains we needed were available from the very close Haymarket Station. I would definitely stay here again if I come back to Edinburgh. Thank you!”

“Very nice place with a bit of everything, mainly orientated for play and leasure. I spent a good time in family or by myself in the gym. Birthday party for kids are very usual as well. It is clean and has secure car parking although I found the spaces quite narrow and it can get very busy.”

“Great family visit and really lucky with the weather. The Pandas were impressive and the highlight but overall the whole place was very clean and tidy. The enclosures were very well maintained and also very clean. The only slight dissapointment was one particular member of staff who must have been having a bad day and was not particularly pleasant when we dare ask about what food was gluten free in the Jungle Restaurant but we worked it out and didn't ruin the day.”

“Great swimming experience. Clean and Covid-safe changing environment, well managed. Nice water temperature and pool depth. Good range of lane speeds, would recommend now that we can use pools again!”

“It's a great place to chill. In the center you can find a pond full of life. You can even feed the wildlife if you have bird food with you. There's a good area to enjoy the sun (when there's sun) with your friends or family. It's nearby the Meadowbank so you can always grab a coffee and take a walk around the park.”

“Nice big park. Great for the team sports and dogs.”

“It's a good place for family fun. You have all you need.”

“We absolutely loved the zoo! As someone with a disability who struggles with hills, the team gave me a very special lift to the top of the hill! We heard lots of facts about the penguins and other amazing animals! I can’t remember the staff members name but he had ginger hair!!! Our favourite animal at the zoo was the hippos, they were really really cute as well as the penguins! The giraffe viewing inside areas were amazing I must add! Overall a fabulous time, definitely recommend ❤️”

“The staff was lovely. Inside the movie, there was clean toilets and extremely comfortable electric recliners. Cheap and highly recommended.”

“I love five guys so much and this is our go to branch. Never had a bad experience. Always fresh and yummy. Only complaint is why is it so expensive :(”

“Yeah nah yeah, really good food”
