Sooo thé ambiance , décor and staff's personality put the visit at 4 stars for me! Specifically looking for our first restaurant upon arriving from US we want chicken and the reviews and pics drew us here! We both got the Heatwave Chicken with fries. Neither of us like the Doritos added in as a layer next to chicken and the chicken itself was crispy well cooked but there was no flavor or seasoning to it. I nexxed the sour cream and salsa .. just too much going on! Honestly it was the lettuce, tomato and sriracha mayo that made the sandwich. The Cheesy Chips bites was disappointing too. I dunno if it's norm here but the chips seemed hard and with processed cheese on top. Dude Ain't Russian was the bomb!! Coffee Rum and Kahlua is such a scrumptious combo and then all that chocolate! Don't forget to play Pass the Pigs! I don't recall our waitress name, perhaps Roe but I'd ask to be seated in her section every time! She was the star! Video captures what you should stop in for if nothing else! She had so much energy, charisma and all with great service! Live and keeps you in a good mood!

The dip and dunk sliders are great! We came back a second time during our trip to have the sliders again. The chicken slider was particularly good. We didn't get any alcohol during either visit. The waitress seemed stressed, but she remembered us when we came in the second time a couple days later.

Amazing eclectic experience. Awesome drinks - Boozy Cow cocktail was smashing. Sliders and boozy dog were delish. Staff friendly and caring.

Meh. In a city filled with a ton of great restaurants, boozy cow was one that disappointed. We went at the recommendation of a friend, and both my wife and I are burger lovers. That being said, these burgers were some of the most underwhelming around. We should have known better when we walked in and were the only people sitting anywhere in the restaurant. The atmosphere is going for that grungy punk rock feel, but it results in a place that feels unclean (tables were sticky) and unapproachable. Do yourself a favor and go to another restaurant. Edinburgh has a ton of great options.

Two five star reviews in Two days something has gone wrong surely, well no this review is just from last week and I hadn't got round to putting it on!! The boozy cow is your one stop burger shop ! I really can't say fairer than that, they will provide you with ; Food Drink Warmth Music And a bloody good time ! The food here is spectacular I have been a few times previously and I have never I repeat never been disappointed with the food ! This time Amanda H and I opted for the Dirty chicken and the special burger of the day which funnily enough as it was festival - was haggis ! Both excellently cooked and the picture of a good burger to eat ! The drinks , now here what I really like! They have a good extensive list of cocktails and also beers including vedett so all a good there but equally if not more importantly they have a really extensive range of non alcoholic drinks which is really really impressive The warmth speaks for itself from the service provided to the actual temperature ( the gents WC ) it certainly wakes you up! Live music from the bar played at a nice level not too quiet but loud enough for you to either loose at karaoke or chat to the rest of your table With all of the above facts considered now you can see what you WILL have a bloody good time

Popped in for a quick bite before seeing the Foo Fighters after hearing decent things in the blogosphere. Got that typical dark, grungy vibe that is ever so popular at the moment with a sprawling lower level space. Lots of variety from the drink menu - good cocktail selection - but the ciders are leaning towards pricey at £4 for a can. Cocktails start from £5.50 and the milkshakes are really brilliant - thoroughly recommend their Oreo concoction. Basic selection as far as the menu goes; beef burgers, chicken burgers, hot dogs and a couple of veggie options. Chips are extra as is the norm in many burger places but not too pricey. Quality of food was pretty decent but nothing outstanding. Service was a bit of a let down, staff were pleasant enough but quite slow and difficult to flag down. Had to ask for parts of our order that were forgotten three times before they arrived which was frustrating however they did take it off our bill, nice gesture! Could be a nice place for an evening drink but not overwhelmed by food.

With an attractive sign and fresh look I was tempted to try out this new bar/burger joint. Walking into the bar it looks amazing with fresh interiors and wall graffiti. However, after that point the experience started to change. After being seated, we looked at the selection of new beers and quirky food on offer. After 20 minutes waiting to order we should have left. Slow service and it felt more like a club than a bar with food section being left to the side. We ordered the burger and chilli cheese dog with sweet potato fries as sides. The food took over thirty minutes to be delivered. While the chilli cheese dog was pretty good, the burger was small and disappointing and more expensive. The beers while nice, were in cans and cost the same as a pint at other similar establishments. Overall, the place is not good value for your money and the service is bellow acceptable standard. I will not be returning.

Aiming to be more 'street' than in its previous guise Boozy Cow offers fairly no nonsense hot dogs, shakes, burgers etc. like a number of other recently opened or rebranded places in Edinburgh. The doughnut and Nutella milkshake I had was as moreish as that combination would suggest (not a regular on the menu though I think) and the service was good and swift. What let the experience down for me was the slightly watery nature of the hot dog sausage - shading into that cinema food stand experience rather than something a bit more gourmet.

Friendly, prompt service, wifi, burger that was exactly what we needed, hot sauce to die for, and good solid drinks that won't disappoint.

Been here 2X. The first time was great, food came out fast and drink refills were on point. The second time was a bit different. I went alone and it still took over 30-35 min to get my food. I had to go up to the bar to get a refill for my adult beverage. The waitress saw me and ended up refilling it for me. She was just overwhelmed with her tables. The food was great both times and if u want a meal that will fill u up, it's worth it.

Once I stepped through the door of what used to be the Amicus Apple; the Boozy Cow reminded me of a place I used to work in. Back in the late 80's I worked in a Student/Live music venue which had Spartan furniture, easy to clean floor, alternative grunge music and wall decorations and huge amount of our own handy work graffiti adorning the walls, doors and ceiling. THIS. What they are trying to achieve, I do not exactly know. They are missing some major attractions like .. uhuh.. draft beer? Bottled tonic water with a Hendriks Gin instead of from a spout - they ruined a perfectly nice gin. I got a 330ml can of Cornish Pilsner for £4.50 - Really? REALLY?! - Oh yes.. it came in a frozen glass. Whoop-Ti-Doo. No. Wrong. They may want to attempt to channel a bit of the Hard Rock Café culture, (they have the WiFi "table is ready" buzzers, but somehow they missed the point completely. Certainly the newly appointed staff is dressed fittingly sporting the Grunge / SKA dress code to a T. The bartender was suitably aloof and uninterested. I'd say if this was in Leith or Cowgate it would have made an okay, even a nice addition, but just around the corner of Princes Street it does not. I am sorry to see a place like this has opened in its current form and format. Luckily I have more to choose from in town and this will be avoided.
