The roasted chicken breast stuffed with haggis is mind blowing. The penne pasta with veggies is also very good and the portions are perfecto! The service was great- fast and friendly .

This is the restaurant in the National Gallery and while it is a "museum restaurant " it was better than I was expecting. Plus the view of the town out the big picture windows is quite nice.

Cobey Flynn

Was the perfect place to have afternoon tea for 2 after seeing all the Art . Staff was fab, attentive and sweet.

Alsana Yaseen

We came for a coffee and dessert . The place smells like fish market and the coffee was worse than my instant coffee and don't let me start with the pineapple cake !

Alèxia Solé

A placid place where to have a bite or a drink while enjoying the view of Princess Street Gardens , people passing by, etc.

Pernilla

The food is great. So are the drinks, and the service. Just go here :)

Claire Thornley

Delicious fish and chips , but watch out for oil dripping off the board (hot!) - my kingdom for a plate.

Mark Ramsay

A delightful coffee or lunch can be found in this brilliant Valvona & Crolla run restaurant within the gallery Read more

Get the porridge with the berry compote and honey . Perfect for a cold day

Try out the first thing on the menu, the Leek soup with Spinach , Rapeseed oil and Goat 's Cheese . Delish.

"Profanity Stout " is a great Scottish beer , chapeau pour Peter and Graig...

Miles

Good view and produce. A bit pretentious though and not good value . Staff not hugely attentive either.

Carrie Anne Walton

You get a piece of tablet with every hot drink - it's the most delicious tablet in the world!

Nice place to sit and have tea and cake but the service is poor. Quite moody staff considering they have nice customers and a great view .

The Buttery with marmalade looks yummy. Coffee is as strong and wonderful as at @centotre

Wow, the coffee actually tastes like rust. Over expensive rust too. Give it a miss, food looks okay.
