Pleasant atmosphere. Reasonable pricing for Edinburgh. Worth a try!

Holy Cow is such a staple for me on my visits to Edinburgh. The food is so comforting and…read moredelicious. Holy cow is 100% plant based and has a wide variety of options to choose from. Most recently, I had the english breakfast and it was a hardy plate full of all the essentials. Everything on it was excellent. I was also excited to see that they had a house-made pumpkin spice latte on the menu, even in July! Holy Cow can get very busy (when I was there on a Thursday, one group after another came in.) But they do a good job at seating everyone quickly, as well as taking orders and bringing out food promptly. During my last visit, I was seated inside, but previously I got to enjoy their back patio. The latter is really lovely on a rare sunny day in Edinburgh. Either way, you'll enjoy your time here.

The options change daily, so be sure to check out their display case when you walk in. My favorite is still the tiramisu, but the biscoff cheesecake, victoria sponge, and forest fruit are close seconds; the only one I haven't liked was the lemon tart (it just wasn't lemon-y enough and the texture was strange too). Needing something lighter and fresher, I recently tried the Cult HC's Pad Thai Salad which came with courgette noodles, red cabbage, red peppers, spring onion, roasted peanuts, cilantro, and smoked tofu in a satay sauce. I asked if they would add avocado on top, and they were incredibly generous with how much they gave me! The salad itself was enormous, and - flavor/texture-wise was exactly what I was looking for. That smoked tofu is SOOOO GOOD. Holy Cow is walk-in only, and they can get BUSY (so come right when they open, or plan a later afternoon visit). Open 12pm to 10pm Monday through Thursday; 10am to 10pm Friday through Sunday. They serve their full vegan breakfast (sausage, smoked tempeh bacon, baked beans, scrambled tofu, potato scone, mushrooms, tomato, greens, and toast) all day, so don't worry you won't miss out!

After a big hike nearby, came by here to get some lunch. Only one person working the place, but…read morewasn't too crowded. Was able to grab a menu and place an order upfront immediately. Settled on the Steak Sandwich (£13.75) and a draft beer (£5ish). The sandwich has a fairly thin slice of beef with tomatoes and lettuce on a ciabatta bread. Basic ingredients and easy to eat, with the giant pile of fries always a nice addition. Lots of good local beer on draft and can. Started with the Clwb Tropica - a hazy fruited IPA that went well with the food. Next was the Last Breath IPA - multiple hop offering that was good for after meal. Really wanted to try their famous nachos, though it was way too much for one person. A nice pub for food and drink.

Tip: There is a long wait here, so make a reservation or check in and then go for a shop on nearby…read moreVictoria street and total mile. However do not let the wait deter you, this place is not overhyped in the slightest. Everything came out delicious, hot, and fresh. Highly recommend the mustard mash and the lamb shank. Also a pro for the Americans - service was awesome and they brought us a water bottle every 5 minutes - immediate five stars!! Olivia and Neo were great and so nice and accommodating. Definitely stop by!

One of our first meals in Scotland so we had to try hqggis…read more Having made a reservation we had lunch just after our Edinburgh castle tour at Makars which was just down the hill. Service was efficient and friendly despite the full house. Although we were seated next to the kitchen, our booth still had the privacy and was shielded from the sounds and bustle. Everything was pretty good although a tad salty for our palate. Haggis is an acquired taste though and I'm not quite sure what to make of it. We celebrated one of our gang's birthday by ordering sticky toffee pudding and some other desserts to share. To our surprise the restaurant waived the cost of the sticky toffee pudding which was the most expensive dessert we had. That simple thought made a great impression for us as we were totally not expecting it and the server didn't even tell us until we told them they made a mistake by not charging us.

We decided on this restaurant late in the day, and the only reservation was late...we took it but showed up a couple hours early, and with a short wait, they were able to seat us at a nice table on a busy evening. Grateful for that! My wife and I shared two starters, the final and the smoked tofu. We loved everything about both of these dishes in taste and presentation. We also shared the Double-Baked Pudding - a delicate dish sort of like a soufflé made with a nice cheese ambiance about it. Really good flavors and Scottish ingredients for the win. We liked it, though the starters were definitely the stars of the meal for us. We didn't have a cocktail as we were heading out to a whisky bar later (and we have limits ;) but the cocktail menu looked delicious and what we saw being delivered to other tables also had as second guessing those limits we have for ourselves. We're lucky to have stumbled on this spot...off the beaten path, but close enough to the Royal Mile to make it accessible on foot. It's an especially great find for vegetarians and one of the best vegetarian-specific restaurants we've been to anywhere.

It's simple but tasteful. Our server Iona, brought us to our table at the window where we were able to watch the world walk by. Iona was very helpful and guided us to make excellent choices. She's very friendly and professional. For lunch we chose several starters and a main. The starters included the short crust tart that was a delicate pastry filled with clarified onion and cheese. Totally delicious. My wife enjoyed the dinner salad with very fresh veggies. We also chose the lemon braised fennel and David's tofu. We were trying to she appetite for dinner and only ordered one main, the Koftas. They are like an eggplant felafel. They were delicious. The slightly spicy curry sauce in which they were served was also great.

As busy as it was, it was such a nice beautiful restaurant. I ordered a roasted chicken breast in a creamy mushroom sauce, it came with sautéed broccoli rabe and roasted potatoes and sautéed onions.

Stopped by this spot for Italian while walking around Edinburgh and had a nice experience overall…read more We ordered the minestrone soup, penne pomodoro, and a margherita pizza. The soup was warm and comforting and came with a piece of bread on the side. The pasta and pizza were both a little saucy, but tasted very fresh. I also liked that they added fresh parmesan on top of the pasta. The ambiance was really nice and there was plenty of seating. For dessert, we shared the Coppa Rocher sundae with pistachio and chocolate ice cream topped with whipped cream. The ice cream was very creamy and it was a great way to end the meal. The servers were friendly, and the food came out without too much delay.

When we arrived at noon (opening time), the restaurant wasn't too busy. There is an impressive bar downstairs with many whiskies. We were led upstairs to the dining area. There is outdoor dining too that would be nice if the weather was warmer. Cool vibe, but it is kind of dark inside the stone walls. The menu is Scottish-focused with seasonal ingredients. We didn't want to overeat, so we decided to share a starter and a main. We got the Scottish venison fritters, which were ok. We enjoyed the pappardelle pasta (roast pumpkin and pecorino sauce, wild mushrooms, spinach, bacon and poppy seed crumb, crispy sage). It was flavorful and didn't feel too heavy. Staff were friendly and it was an enjoyable lunch.

The service was pretty fast and the wait staff are very nice. The restaurant is very small inside so I recommend you call to make reservations. Everything we ordered was great from the apps to the dessert. They had a dessert special of Pistachio cheesecake which was delicious! The only thing that was so so were the chocolate truffles but even that was pretty good, but not as good compared to the other desserts. Def a place to eat at when you come to Edinburgh.
