    Lovely brunch. Little surprise for the wife when they brought out a wee cake. Slight confusion with the breakfast which came with a cheese scone instead of lorn sausage 🫣

    Food was ok but expensive for what you got. Servers were nice but very busy. Discretionary service charge was rather higher than the service provided would justify but the staff were flat out.

    Duck and Waffle Edinburgh is a truly unique and delicious dining experience. You can tell there is so much pride in the product they deliver and rightly so. The venue is fun, transparent and interactive. The staff is attentive and top notch in talent and kindness. Finally the food is next level. Flavors that shouldn’t work sing, and by focusing on a perfect size menu rather than one that has too much and is all over the place, Duck and Waffle provides near perfection in every dish.

    Went for 2 course Sunday roast and the food was great. Massive portion you won’t go hungry. Dessert was tasty but the waffle could have been a bit warmer.
