    Great, quick option in a busy locale of Edinburgh. It's what you expect from a Hard Rock, but with a more intimate setting.

    Il locale non è grande quanto altri Rock Cafe, i tavoli sono piuttosto vicini e il nostro era praticamente attaccato ai bagni. Il servizio è stato veloce ed efficiente, i piatti nella norma. Lo shop è ritagliato in un angolo, è veramente molto piccolo.

    Meeting with American Cousins for 1st time - everything OK until the Live Music started- not their fault - they were good - but volume killed the conversation so we had to leave.

    Nice food and location was as expected , didn’t like the condiments/dips were very cold compared to the food. Service even when not very busy was very pushy, needed a little more time to enjoy the food .

    Food portions and quality were amazing. We had the BBQ burger, Cobb salad with grilled chicken, and the Mac n cheese. All perfect, fresh, massive and delicious. Service was speedy, efficient, and impeccable. Ambience fun and vibrant. Value for money is good even if slightly expensive, but you’re paying for the experience and brand as well, and the food lives up to the price. You leave happy and full.
