    Food and Service always good. Early meal pre-theatre visit for my Wife birthday. Only 2 other tables occupied but unfortunately the 3 Anericans behind had us holding our ears - no Volume control !! Fortunately they left soon and wihen more tables filled there was a good HRC atmosphere.

    Great place as usual. Staff communicated well apart failing to inform us they did not have any sticky toffee pudding. Which normally would not be a problem. But it was a late Sunday evening, a bit cold after walking all day. We skipped to have staters so we could indulge to a hot pudding. Didn’t quite happen. Still bought a T-shirt and a hat.
    Hard Rock Cafe - EdinburghResponded on June 5, 2025
    Hi James, Thank you for your review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your recent visit. We don't have sticky toffee pudding on our menu, but we do have a Hot Fudge Brownie, New York Cheesecake, Home-Made Apple Cobbler and Ice Cream. We recommend our Apple Cobbler for your next visit, as this is served hot topped with ice cream and caramel sauce - one of our best sellers! Our full menu can be viewed on our website before arrival, to avoid disappointment in the future. Many thanks, HRC Edinburgh Team

    Service was extremely slow, had to ask multiple times for the bill and to get our drinks. There was plenty of staff on however it seemed very chaotic. The food was over priced. They tried to squeeze as many tables in as they could which made it difficult to get up and past people.

    Hi Amie, Thank you for taking the time to review your recent visit. We thoroughly appreciate feedback from all of our guests. We are sorry we did not meet all of your expectations this time. HRC Edinburgh Team
