- AAmandaAngus/Fife •2 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWe were meeting up with old friends we hadn’t seen for 16 years and The Auld Hundred was the perfect venue. All of the staff were very friendly and helpful, the food was delicious and the atmosphere in the pub was really good. The pub looked very attractive with the Christmas decor. This is a firm favourite and we will return soon!More infoThe Auld HundredPrice: Moderate• Scottish• New Town•4.6
- PPaulaLondon •15 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe had a delicious evening meal here, with super efficient and friendly service. Despite the good reviews I’ve read, the place was super quiet (Sunday evening but with the Christmas markets in full swing), only two other tables in - bit of a shame but in no way detracted from a lovely meal. Would definitely recommend.More infoSociety Bar & KitchenPrice: Moderate• Mediterranean• New Town•4.6

- DDerekLas Vegas •4 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 19, 2024A lukewarm reception as I don’t think the gentleman who booked us in and took our menus uttered a single world to us when we arrived. He just collected the menus from their storage shelf and headed for the table. Not to worry though as (spoiler alert!) the food was excellent! It’s also fair to say he warmed up once we were seated and looked after us well. Overall I’d say this was a very enjoyable evening. We went for the Festive Set Menu which is terrific value! The portion sizes were generous too. My wife’s turkey was thick, juicy and flavourful and my Flat Iron Steak was perfect. A five star experience, just a pity about the blasé welcome.More infoBread Street Kitchen & Bar — EdinburghPrice: Moderate• British• New Town•3.8
