    If you're wandering around Easter Road and are in need of a quick bite to eat, then the Filling…read morePlace is as good as any other. The Filling place certainly can ruffle up a good sandwich, especially a ham and cheese salad baguette! And what made it even better was that the cheese was extra special, as it is sourced from the famous cheesemongers of Edinburgh, Iain Mellis. This little cafe however, doesn't just do sandwiches. They do baked potatoes, soups, Paninis and salads. All the produce looked fresh and the shop smelt full of fantastic flavours. I also believe you can purchase cheeses and hams from the cafe's deli counter. And the prices aren't too bad either, actually on the cheaper side of the coin. When I was in the cafe it wasn't that busy, and that in a way was quite nice, munching a small lunch time snack while people watching from the window seats. That will do me nicely.

    The Filling Place is a decidedly non-glamourous sandwich shop, though I must confess I've not tried…read moreone of their pieces. Instead I come for the Bain's of Stenhouse pies. Some say these are the best pies in Edinburgh, and I'd have to agree. They're a step above your average Scotch pie, and filled with delicious meat and gravy. The bridies are pretty damn good too. Mmmm! It costs more to have it hot and sit in (damn that pasty tax!), but I live so close that I just take it home and heat it up in my oven instead. Before devouring them in seconds and dribbling gravy all down my chin. I have had a hot roll from here before, it was alright. It's just a shame that it's not open on a Sunday, the day of the week when I most crave a roll and sausage. NOTHING is open on a Sunday on Easter Road that meets my roll requirements, sad face. Why won't someone think of my stomach?!

    This is a specialty cafe. They serve pulled pork sandwiches…read moreYou get to choose the size and sauce and that's about all. That said, the pork was excellent. I prefer my pulled pork the North American way which includes coleslaw, but when in Edinburgh do as the people of Edinburgh do. Also note the special deal of you include a beer. This is a fine place for a lunch. Service is friendly and helpful. The ambiance is what you should expect for a pork lunch sandwich place. There are five tables including one for four or more people.

    We saw Oink on Phil, Phil said great things about Oink... We thought it was just Ok…read more.. After our visiting the castle we were walking back uptown and ran into Oink and although we were not too hungry we had to stop back and grab a Pulled Pork Sandwich after out boy Phil had talked it up, we had to stop in. We got the Oink size sandwich (medium) with Sage & Onion and Homemade Chili Cheese. They wrapped it up and we went outside to get into it. Our first bite was a bit lackluster. We figured maybe we didn't everything in that bite but same on the second. The Sage & Onion and Homemade Chili Cheese did bring much to the table in flavor or spice and even the pork wasn't popping with flavor even. Maybe this is an American thing where we are used to super flavorful pulled pork. Trust me too I' not that guy either who needs sauce on my pork either. This was just a bit plain. I will say the staff was great and exampled everything when ordering. This just might be one of those things that doesn't carry over as well for Americans.
