Pub in Edinburgh

“We had a delightful dinner here in April 2023 on an evening that had already been made memorable by my having been notified that my mother had been accepted into a mime school in Amherst. Really comfortable pub atmosphere here and great food. A bit noisy with the hardwood floors. For dessert we especially liked the cream cheese pie and the sticky toffee pudding. For mains the favorite was prob the sea bass.”

“Very good restaurant. Highly recommend it .Lovely staff and fresh food .”

“Great selection of decent beers and wines. Noticed some niche spirit options too. Friendly service, what's not to love here. Recommend!”

“My 2nd stay at Inchgrove, and I enjoyed it as much as the first! Duncan and Walter are great hosts, and breakfast will keep you going all day! Rooms are nice and clean and a good value. You can’t beat the location! I recommend Inchgrove and will stay there any time I visit Edinburgh!”

“We stayed here in July and had a gorgeous room overlooking the pocket park and garden across the street. Parking was easy, there were 2 restaurants, and the bathtub was ample. All this would have led to a positive review but hotel staff went above and beyond. I left a valuable piece of jewelry behind and they shipped it overseas for me. Excellent service - highly recommend!”

“A lovely cosy pub with a good atmosphere. Delicious food well prepared.”

“We had our end of season dinner there and the staff at the Tweeddale were fantastic and accommodating to our requirements. Food was great and we’ll definitely be back.”

“Stayed here overnight 21 august 2025 as we were going to meadowfield to see acdc. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. We stayed in room 5. The room was lovely, comfortable bed. Breakfast was perfectly cooked, quality ingredients. Really can't fault this hotel, would gladly stay here again.”

“Really great priced. Good choice. Gluten free options - burger was fab, slightly cold as the roll was obviously frozen and not heated enough but i cant even complain was still delicious! 100% will be back”

“Really good food and a nice selection of drinks”

“Great food, drink and service. Had the chicken strips… so good, fish n chips same. Haggis Hunter on tap, one of the best pints I’ve had for a long time. Happy camper!”

“Adorable cafe, great atmosphere, excellent food. This has been my most impressive meal while in Scotland. Would definitely visit again”

“Phenomenal little restaurant and a great stop off on a drive from Stirling to Aberdeen. Steak pie was amazing, and the chicken Balmoral had some of the best haggis we've had since arriving in country.”

“Fantastic place inside with so much to see and try and take in. Staff all truly amazing,food great and lots of drink choices too”

“Currently Penicuik's only pub with cask ale, which I couldn't fault when I visited. Keep up the good work updating the free Real Ale Finder to help promote your beers.”

“We arrived at the torfin earlier than expected and the owner lindsey was so accommodating, the check in was smooth and seamless. The room is very stylish and cozy, but the best part was the soothing, most relaxing and roomy rainfall shower!! We ate dinner at the restaurant here, the croquettes and corn ribs are to die for we ordered 3 rounds. The fish and chips and pan seared sea bass was delicious! Katie our server made sure to check on us and provided great service! Delicious food, friendly staff, totally recommend!”

“We had a wonderful stay at The Bridge Inn in Ratho this past September. This charming canal-side inn is a hidden gem just outside Edinburgh and near the airport, offering the perfect blend of peaceful countryside atmosphere and excellent hospitality. Our room was comfortable and nicely decorated with lovely views of the Union Canal. The inn has that cozy, traditional Scottish pub feel that makes you instantly feel comfortable and at home. The location right on the canal made for a truly serene setting, especially waking up to the peaceful waterside views. One of the highlights of our stay was our leisurely walk along the Union Canal towpath. The canal walk from Ratho is absolutely beautiful, with tranquil waters reflecting the sky and lush greenery lining the path. We strolled for miles, enjoying the peaceful countryside, watching narrowboats glide by, and spotting ducks and swans along the way. It was the perfect way to unwind and escape the bustle of the city while still being so close to Edinburgh. Dinner at The Bridge Inn's restaurant was fantastic! The menu featured delicious Scottish fare with a modern twist, all made with fresh, quality ingredients. We enjoyed Steak pie and Fish & Chips. The atmosphere in the restaurant was warm and inviting, with attentive service from the friendly staff who made excellent recommendations. The combination of comfortable accommodation, stunning canal-side location, wonderful walks, and excellent dining made our stay at The Bridge Inn truly memorable. It's an ideal spot for anyone looking to experience the Scottish countryside while staying close to Edinburgh and to the airport.”

“We went here on a Saturday lunch and I cannot recommend enough. We had to wait 15mins for a table but it didn’t feel like long. The food choice is amazing there is everything to choose from. We shared lots of different meals as there were four of us. We had a cheesy garlic bread, the most outstanding burgers, muscles that were super fresh and the best salt and pepper chicken. 10/10 recommend, really nice friendly relaxed atmosphere, could have stopped all day. Food portions are massive and filling, so worth the price.”

“Great aesthetic, combining bright and cheery with Edinburgh’s atmospheric stonework. Okay coffee, although a little small for my liking. Super friendly staff.”

“Great specialty coffee shop. Brewing pour overs, and espresso, as well as interesting matcha and cold brew drinks. The affogato was so creamy and delicious and the pastries have a stranglehold on my psyche. The space itself is gorgeous and relatively spacious. Definitely a do not miss for the coffee lovers and snobs moving through Edinburgh. All their coffees are also served with cute info cards and it's just a whole vibe”

“Nice pub with good atmosphere and a good selection of ales and beers.”

“My brother and I go for lunch a few times a year when I'm home visiting. Its strength is it consistency. Food always good, tasty, hot. Service always courteous, place always clean. Big recommendation for all of their haggis dishes, including the chicken and haggis lasagne.”

“Made two of our evenings in Edinburgh memorable with great service and a friendly, helpful guidance about beer locality and flavor profiles. Food is not rated because we didn't order food outside of some fries, which were great. Will return as soon as we're back in Edinburgh.”

“Lovely pub, food was excellent, staff were lovely, especially Caroline. We had the kids with us, and they made us feel really welcome. If I lived closer, I’d be back. Highly recommended”

“What a pleasant stay! The staff were lovely, the room was spacious, clean and well appointed, particularly the bathroom! The hotel is located a 15 minute walk away from town centre, so it's great if you don't mind a walk. It means the local area is quiet compared to staying in town centre. Would definitely stay again!”

“My husband and I enjoyed dinner and drinks. We visited on a Sunday evening. We had the panko fried tofu and patatas brava. We had the best sabre and blood rose beverages after dinner. We also enjoyed the sticky toffee pudding. Everything was sublime! Service was great. We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner.”

“Had a great night and easy to travel to via the tram.”

“Amazing venue with ton of pool tables and other games too, not to mention the the abundance of big screens for the sports did I mentions the drink & food prices are reasonable & the food is on point! Will be back for another visit!”

“Such a beautiful location. We had the castle view and it was awesome! But what made our trip was the front desk - Alasdair! My mother and I loved him. He is very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and we always hoped he was at the front desk when we came by. We will book again just for him because he truly loves his job/Edinburgh and you feel it from the moment he greets you!”

“Great traditional pub with local characters a plenty. It's actually where I had my first ever pint (illegally) and I'm now 66!! Hasn't changed much! Loved it!”
