The Scran & Scallie

You won't be disappointed with the choice of food and the quality. Every item on the menu is like a party in your mouth. Freshly made and tasted fantastic. I had the scallops starter and the halibut,mussels and lentil main and was not disappointed. Wish I could have five plates of the scallops, it was that great. Ambience was great, staff were lovely and patient with our questions and requests. There are dishes of the day and some of us ordered a starter off of that. They are knowable with prices and portion sizes. Chef did a fantastic job with presentation, my photos using my mobile and lighting available in the venue does not do the dishes we had any justice, so make sure to check it out in person as each dish was fantastic Limited number of tables and you can tell the place is popular as the restaurant side was packed. The pub side had musicians which was a nice surprise to walk past to get to our table. Prices are pricey but worth every penny for the quality and fresh ingredients used so perhaps book as a treat for special occasion or to surprise a lived one or for a company meal. Booking ahead is recommended to avoid disappointment. We are going back to work our way through the menu as we didn't get anywhere near the dessert menu unfortunately Drinks menu has a lot of choice, so something for everyone. I'm always happy to support local businesses and I hope this one is around for many years to come when I can return for another event in Edinburgh.

One of my favorite restaurants in Edinburgh! I've been to Edinburgh about four or five times in the last year for business. I've eaten at the Scran and Scallie at least five times. I take friends here, family here. I've never been disappointed. The prices are a little higher, perhaps, than your average pub, but the quality of this food is so much better than your average pub that it is definitely worth it. The menu here is imaginative, focuses on local ingredients. If you want a meal that highlights some of Scotland's best offerings, this is it. I always get an order of the oysters, and I'm not a big oyster guy, but the oysters here come ice cold, super fresh, and are some of the best I've ever had. The menu changes frequently, so some of my favorite dishes are no longer on offer, but the pub classics here are fairly set (fish and chips, bangers and mash, burgers) and will be some of the best you'll have in Scotland. Definitely recommend reservations. I've only once been able to get in without one, and I was a table of and had to wait until nearly p.m.

Maybe a pub menu for some but brilliant cooking for me. Relaxed atmosphere and fine flavours. Despite problems of supply and staffing the S&S continues to excel. The specials starter of Ox tail croquette in a light but full flavoured meaty soup with tender barley could easily be extended to main course quantity. On the traditional front the steak pie remains a star with super light pastry. Desserts are not our favourite courses but the blueberry parfait with sweet blackberries and the coconut rice pudding were exceptional. We must expect to find higher prices but at this destination they come with satisfaction guaranteed.

Not a cheap place to eat but the prices reflect the quality and service. Good selection on menu and good variety of drinks. A special place for a special occasion but also has a following, very busy advisable to book.

Delicious food, friendly staff and great atmosphere. It's not cheap but it's not stupidly expensive either. We went for a mid week dinner with friends and it was lovely. I would definitely recommend it!
