Restaurant · Edinburgh
A pub with a proper kitchen behind it, and the sort of place where a family lunch doesn't feel like an imposition. There's a kids' menu, high chairs and buggy access, plus free parking and outdoor seating for when someone needs air. It sits across from the cinema and bowling, which makes it a sensible stop before or after. The pies do the heavy lifting — bone-in beef, the haggis one, steak marsala — along with roast chicken, fish and chips, and haggis pakora with Irn Bru hot sauce that people go back for. Portions are generous and prices fair for what arrives. Sticky toffee pudding is the one everyone names. Staff are warm and accommodating, though service has the odd off day, and a service charge can appear on the bill. Booking is wise for bigger tables.
