    The vegan chicken burgers are not good - I was also disappointed with the chips. Overall it was a massive waste of money for food that I would’ve been better off not eating.

    Food was mediocre , what we had was nice but lukewarm and a bit just ok. It tasted nice and the staff were ok but after hearing such good things it was a bit under whelming . Thanks

    Service is ok, not very motivated (exception: nice bartender). The burgers are small, buns were a bit dry and floury. I asked for lettuce instead of onions, got charged 50p for that. Extra Sauce costs 2£, find that a bit overboard overall.

    Good place to grab a quick meal before heading to a show or other event. Great burgers and good value drinks. Staff were really friendly and helpful. My fries were just warm and a fresh batch was cooked for me no problem.

    Tasty & affordable. The Caesar chicken fingers were really tasty and the fries with parmesan & truffle mayo were delicious. Gorgeous sunny day so we opted to sit outside. Staff were friendly and approachable.

    Welcomed, promptly on arrival by friendly staff. Excellent service overall, attentive but not overbearing . Food was great, recommend the Parmesan and Rosemary fries as a side. Note, a burger each and fries to share in more than enough. Make a reservation to ensure you aren’t disappointed

    Great burgers both beef and chicken and good sized portions. Great service. Waiting staff were polite, friendly & efficient. Only negative point id make would be that appropriately sized glasses could be served with bottled beer?we were given pint glasses when the bottle only holds a half pint or just over. Overall very happy with our visit yesterday.

    Food here is pretty good. The truffle chick is pretty nice, large fries were quite generous, staff there is polite and helpful. Was offered some taste test to some of the beers they offer on tap, thats really nice of them. So yeah, overall a pretty nice chill place for burgers.

    Placed order, 25 minutes later staff informed us the kitchen hadn’t got our ticket. Waited another 15 minuted for food. Chips were cold and burger was inedible. Only got a free drink and 20% off. They still had the nerve to add a service charge of 10%. Utter joke - stay away from here.

    We picked here for somewhere quick to eat before heading to a concert at Murrayfield. As it was a nice day we asked if we could sit outside. Staff were coming out and delivering drinks / food / orders to other tables and we tried to catch their attention but had no success. After 20 mins of sitting without even being given a menu I went in and asked for them. 10 mins later we were still sat without even placing a drink order. 30 min wait to order a drink was very frustrating. The food itself was really nice, albeit expensive for a burger & fries but still tasty. The slow service let it down and there are too many other great places to eat in Edinburgh to return here.

    Restaurant wasn’t very busy when we arrived. We were told to “sit anywhere”. This then meant no one brought water or spoke to us. After 10mins of trying to get a servers attention, someone came over (must’ve been an important discussed but likely no one told them we were there). We ordered food and he was about to leave before we could order drinks too. Food arrived reasonably quickly and was good. A double patty feels too much tho. The toppings were ok ans it wasn’t the hottest but tasty. No check back. No one cleared our plates. We sat waiting and again trying to get someone’s attention. Finally she came and dropped the bill - even though we were sat in our coats, she didn’t think to bring a card machine just in case. So again we waited and tried to get her attention again to pay. Decent food but disappointing service (or lack thereof)

    Great burgers, cheap cocktails (rare on George St), dietary requirements covered and vegans have OPTIONS which is amazing. The staff are so friendly, the service is quick, everything is fresh and most importantly delicious. 10/10 would recommend and will be back!

    Great food and great choice for vegetarians. It was a little pricey for what we ordered and would of liked a main with a side rather than having to pay separately. Would recommend and come again when in the area.
