The Scotch Malt Whisky Society

To whom it may concern, I write this review today after being a member for four years. In this time as a member I have been to this establishment many of times, along with others. Of late however, I feel the service has really started to fall short. Saying that the waiters treat you with disdain and disinterest is an understatement. Which after looking, many other reviews suggest also. I feel it is such a shame given it is such a great venue. However it has come to a point now that I won’t be returning or renewing my membership.

A disappointing evening at the beginning but was rectified later on. Took three friends with me as I have always had excellent experience at the Vaults.

Even after we got to the bar, the same staff looked at us with an annoyance, I was very unhappy with the disrespect we received.

Simply the best. The food is on another level, I challenge anyone to find a better dinner for the price, simply fantastic. Staff are always friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. Couldn’t fault it. Important to note is that it is Members’ and their guests only, so if you don’t know a member, you are best off visiting the Queen’s street location in central Edinburgh.

I visited as a guest of my cousin who is a member. I was extremely impressed with the variety of drinks offered, the high quality of the food, and the exceptional service.

The food and atmosphere at this restaurant are excellent. One server was fantastic, but the other was rude and accidentally spilled my beer.
