Überbewertet

Hygiene was seriously neglected. Our table was sticky and covered in food scraps; we had to ask at the bar before they cleaned it. The smell was also off-putting. The food was very unimaginative and could easily have been made by a child. I ordered a set meal, thinking I’d be getting a hot dog, mac and cheese and chips. But I ended up getting everything all mixed together in a wrap.

Pros: Fun Setting wiht a lot of Video Games stuff

Cons: Poor Hygiene, Intersting choosie of food

Delicious pub food!

The food was really good and the portion sizes were more than we expected. Lovely bartenders and a great atmosphere/decor. Nothing bad, even the bathroom was clean 😅

Lots of cultural activity posters, and clearly very queer-friendly (I suppose). They have a dog picture-wall, so I suppose they're animal friendly as well 😉

Don't order too much, but that was entirely our fault (we wanted to test so many things on the menu...)

They have wonderful vegan milkshakes, which are originally with rum, but you can order them alcohol-free. No mocktails on the menu - but we didn't ask for any, so perhaps they do have them?

Pros: Happy fast food 🤤, Lovely people, The decor!

Cons: No mocktails? (on the menu, we didn't ask for any)

Great spot

Tried 4 dishes and a milk shake and everything was incredible. Would recommend stopping by. The price wasn’t that bad compared to other places in Edinburgh.

Great selection of vegan food and drinks

Cool pub with a large all-vegan menu that includes burgers, loaded fries, vegan mac and cheese, desserts and more. They also have a range of vegan cocktails, and my personal favorites are the vegan milk shakes (with or without alcohol). Also host events like weekly pub quizzes and movie nights.

Pros: food, drinks and milk shakes, events

Best vegan burgers in town!

Amazing all-vegan pub with fab staff. There’s a monthly special burger that’s always really inventive, and the menu is full and varied. Proper tasty vegan junk food - the only downside is how expensive the place is (£7 for a pint of Neck Oil 😩), but one of my favourite places nonetheless! The weekly pub quiz is also fab!

Burgers to live for

Staff were fabulous. Very dog friendly and made a fuss of the dog I was with. Very much appreciated.

Food was outstanding! Felt like a real indulgence, well thought out non standard menu!

Amazing +GF

Was here last year and loved it but forgot to add a review. So I went back this year to taste something more because I loved it last time,

Amazing taste and vibes. Burgers a bit small but tasted great, you will need the fries.
Shawarma fries was amazing and hot, finally a chili souse that taste hot.
they can fix it gluten free

Last year I had lunch. This year dinner. At dinnertime the music is loud. But it is a pub so that’s not strange. But the lunch time is more fore me.

The food is delivered fast as well, that’s nice!

The food looked great, but unfortunately I couldn’t stay to try it. The music in the pub was so loud I genuinely worried for my hearing! I’ll definitely revisit during the daytime or order for delivery next time.

My standard for Burgers

Been here twice and will go again. Had a burger both times and they are everything a burger should be: substantial, succulent and very tasty. Staff are friendly & helpful.

Pros: The food, Everything is vegan, Relaxed & welcoming

Good casual choice

Hip and happening all-vegan pub! I had buffalo chickn tenders and slaw, while my partner had a burger, and we both enjoyed. Service was a little strange, but not bad at all. Definitely a casual place, great for a quick bite and pint.

Delicious

Small place so get a seat early if there's a group of you. I had Mac and cheeZe and kebab type meat really tasty and filling. Beers are good too. It's literally on the menu so when you arrive in the pub I thought I was lost but they gave me the menu. Ill be back

Pros: All vegan

Miglior hamburger di sempre

Hamburger spaziali, giganti e buonissimi.
In Italia vegano è sempre collegato a sano, è bello invece potersi sfondare con un paninazzo ignorante senza uccidere nessuno!
Se non ci fosse stato scritto 100%vegan non ci avrei creduto.

Anche le dirty fries spettacolari. Pe tessere Edimburgo prezzi buono e porzioni abbondantissime.

Pros: Gli hamburger, Il posto

delicious burgers and fast food

We had two amazing burgers, milkshakes, and the fried cheesecake, and everything was delicious. The staff was friendly, and there were board games you could grab and play for free. It was a bit loud, the Meadows Tap is actually a bar, but we didn't mind. Prices are a bit high, but the quality of the food was good. Great fast food in Edinburgh!

Pros: food, board games, staff

Cons: prices are a bit high

This isn't America.

Staff trying to trick us into paying a mandatory tip gets this place as few stars as possible. This isn't America. In this country, If you do your service job exceedingly well, your reward is a paycheck. Tips are not to be expected. That is not a mandatory part of our culture. This, it cannot be stated clearly enough, was the fault of the bar staff, who was blunt and intense. The same bar staff who couldn't be bothered to serve us our food, so the kitchen staff had to bring it to us. There's no excuse for this kind of behaviour as the place was far from busy.

Kitchen staff seemed lovely though and the food was great, if a bit pricy.

Pros: Food tasted great, excellent textures

Cons: Expensive, Rude bar staff

Mixed

Decent food. But a weird experience that felt unpleasant - over basically nothing! Ordered food for 4, including slaw. When the food was brought to the table there was no slaw. I mentioned this, and was told with what seemed to me an accusatory tone, ‘you didn’t pay for it’. Eventually the waiter said that I had ordered it but it had been missed off the total and he thought someone had checked it. Ok, all fine, but there was no apology and this odd undertone that I had done something wrong. In addition, they brought and charged for an extra portion of chips I didn’t order, and the default tip added to the bill at the bar was 15% - a bit steep given the issues that would follow. None of the mistakes were major, but the weird defensive attitude was unpleasant and embarrassing so won’t be back.

Cons: Attitude and defensiveness

The best burgers, loaded fries, salads, desserts

Beautiful vegan dirty burgers and fries. The lasagne burger and bites were so tasty and the Parm geddon chick*n burger (with mac cheese, Parma and pizza sauce) amazing. The Bruce burger is fantastic. The kebab fries are so tasty as are the mac cheese and lasagna loaded fries.
The salads with chick*n are the healthy options but are soooo good too. You won't find a better place for vegan fast food.
Gluten free options available and prepared safely.

Best junk food EVER

When you want utterly ridiculous junk food, this has got to be the best of the BEST.

We had:
The July special burger - the chick'n saboteur. Bloody outstanding and was our favourite of everything we tried - defo recommend!

The Bruce - another excellent burger, the haggis and hash browns make an awesome addition

Lasagne baws - a very distinct, strong lasagne taste, really brilliant. EXTREMELY filling haha, so beware if you want to try lots of other stuff

Macaro-nae cheese topped with buffalo chick'n - creamy and spicy, yum

Got both our burgers with fries which was unnecessary 😂

Deep fried cheesecake was SPECTACULAR, omg. I'd originally wanted the deep fried mars bar but it was out of stock and I'm glad because I've never had a dessert like the deep fried cheesecake and it was just brilliant. I was in literal pain from eating so much but managed the dessert because it was that good haha.

Dirty, dirty food, but if you want that then you couldn't do it better! 🤣

Service was friendly and fun and they welcomed our lovely dog with water and pats 🥰 comfortable and lovely decor, nice ambient lighting and music not too loud etc 👌

im glad i dont live near here

great atmosphere and ambience, but more importantly the food was amazing. great selection of vegan burgers, loaded fries, etc. the MVP were these deep fried lasagne balls which were amazing. i havent come across anything like these before, and am worried i never will again. also got the pizza fries and a kebab which were both mega.
definitely had to lie down afterwards
