Takeaway in Musselburgh

“It’s wonderful to have well spiced and steaming hot Singaporean style rice noodles on a chilly evening. It’s of such a generous portion, definitely value for money. The photo doesn’t do it justice. The taste is authentic, surely helps with my homesickness.”

“Absolutely delicious Italian pizza. Our favourites: Highlander (cheese, tomato and haggis on top) and Maradona ( Cheese & Tomato, Mushroom, Parma Ham, Rocket Salad, Cherry Tomatoes, Parmesan). Pizza to die for! Best when eaten on the beach in Musselburgh Harbour.”

“Very nice restaurant. Went for the reviews and wasn't disappointed. We had lunch during the week and got to enjoy the lunch menu (2 courses for £23!) Don't be tricked by the "wee fish dinner" (see photo) it was big enough!! Had mussels as a starters and once again much bigger than assumed and delicious! Definitely recommend”

“Food is always consistently good. There's a big longer wait than you'd find at another fast food place but the food is very much worth it. Just plan ahead for the wait or order in the app :)”

“This gem of a place is worth making the trip for. Some amazing regulars, like the Giros. Daily & weekly specials are always special indeed. You will not be disappointed. Jennifer is such a welcoming host and her cheery face adds to the whole experience. This is a ‘no regrets’ visit - you will want to got back !”

“Now as a bit of an expert about takeaways if I say so myself. Mario's Definitely serves the best doner kebab in the whole of Scotland. After doing a bit of research I found out they are one of 3 shops in the whole of Edinburgh who actually make the doner in house and I can say without a doubt it's the best.”

“Excellent portion sizes, reasonably priced, nice batter & definitely better than other chip shops in the area.”

“Always ordsr from here. Staff are very plesant , Food is amazing.best kebabs ive had. Best murgh masla Garlic breads. Tikka , kormas etc. Everything i try has been great and freshly prepared . Worth the wait if walking in or if you dont want to wait order for pick up. How there isnt ques out the door is beyond me. Tried various places in edinburgh and lothians that have won awards etc bombay lounge dalkeith, ithias etc etc and they dont taste as good as food from here”

“Moved to the area recently and have been trying various Chinese takeaways to find our new go-to. The Chinese/chippy concept was a bit off-putting at first, but the Chinese food is very good and hits the spot. Takes card too. Will definitely order from here again”

“Friendly staff and locals pool table”

“This is a fish and chip shop that serves food. We had the small fish tea that was just the right size for an early dinner. Staff were very friendly and helpful. The shop/restaurant was very clean and the staff appeared to follow good hygiene practices. Would definitely recommend.”

“5 Stars – Outstanding Experience at Shish Mahal, Musselburgh ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ We had an exceptional experience at Shish Mahal. Despite a last-minute cancellation from another restaurant, Hanan and Inam went above and beyond to accommodate our group of 18 people with warmth, professionalism, and genuine hospitality. Their service was nothing short of outstanding—attentive, courteous, and truly welcoming from start to finish. The food was phenomenal. We ordered the Tawa for 4, and every element was bursting with flavor. The lamb chops were perfectly cooked, and the pakoras were crisp, fresh, and delicious. Portion sizes were generous, and the quality was evident in every bite. The mocktails were equally impressive—refreshing, vibrant, and beautifully presented. I tried four different ones, and each one was fantastic. A special thank you to Chef Shayru for delivering such exceptional dishes. This was honestly one of the best dining experiences we’ve had, and we can’t wait to return. I’ll be recommending Shish Mahal to all my friends and family. This place truly deserves to expand into Edinburgh—their standard of food and service is outstanding.”

“I love Tesco Cafe in Musselburgh. All the staff including Kath, Sharon, Jamie Lee, Myra, Ariana, Amy, Dave, Liz and Shirley are always happy and welcoming. The cafe is extremely busy and they work tirelessly to do the best that they can while always providing the best service. They also make the best coffee in Musselburgh!”

“Amazing and delicious food prepared by lovely hardworking people. I enjoy all their food. The fish and chips is just outstanding, the Kebab and pizzas are so delicious. Customers are treated with respect and appreciation. Wish them all the best!”

“Ordered Salt/Chilli Chips & Duck with Shoots/Chestnuts for collection- was not disappointed. The duck was firm and tasty, paired vegetables and a delicate sauce- the combination tasted real and had a silken texture to it all. As I collected, it was all still piping hot throughout and fresh. I've had chips on a takeout many times, and I have to admit that these were the best Salt/Chilli chips I've ever had (though they often go under the name of Salt/Pepper but they're the same thing.) Collecting has its bonuses- they were freshly made fries with a nice crispy snap to them- none of that soggy stuff you often get on a takeout. All in all, damned delicious and I'll definitely come back in the future next time I order a takeaway. (FYI I really do recommend the duck with shoots/chestnuts- it's not sweet, it's very much savoury, and to me at least it felt as though it didn't have many additives that you might often find in a takeout- no absurd sugaring, not overly seasoned, just genuinely made homely food.)”

“First time ordering from Village Tandoori and was not disappointed! The chicken was really well flavoured and moist. The Sag Paneer was really fresh and well cooked and the Nan was huge and really light, and again delicious. The food was delivered quickly.”

“It was my first time in Musselburgh and I went to the first nearby Chinese takeaway. The service was very nice and friendly. The food came fast and was really warm, good portion sizes, and most importantly it was delicious! I would recommend and honestly it's better than 80% places that I've been too. Thank you.”
