Our regular, local breakfast spot! City Restaurant has good food, lovely service and a great atmosphere. Also have a really good range of gluten free options. Highly recommend! 😊🤩👍

This does some of the best fish 'n' chips in Edinburgh. It also does salads and cocktails. For me this is my Go To destination every Edinburgh Fringe. The service is also fast, friendly and lovely. Fish n chips with salt 'n' sauce. An Edinburgh tradition/exclusive. Enjoy.

Honestly the best chips and the best milkshakes in the city. I used to go at least once a week as a relief from classes and now miss it more than the rest of Edinburgh now that I'm back at my regular uni

Fabulous fish and chips that I would recommend to anyone. Service is really friendly and they are quick and courteous. The kitchen is open which I love as you can see that everything is clean.

Found this restaurant by accident on the last day of our trip to Edinburgh. The food was served beautifully and was absolutely delicious (best fish and chips I’ve ever had). Great decor and friendly service added to an excellent experience. Superb food and friendly service. My only regret it that we didn’t find this lovely restaurant sooner.

Love it. I go as often as I can with a friend. The service is excellent and the fish and chips are a fab, large portion. The staff are really nice. I recommend it to everyone I know.

Great grub and great value. Real Edinburgh institution with authentic atmosphere that attracts locals and tourists alike. Always one of my recommendations to anyone wanting to sample some of the real flavour of the city.

Faultless. Wonderful restaurant, friendly staff and really good Gluten Free options. We all had fish and chips and the deserts were great as well. All round top quality food and reasonable price.

This family-run place is always busy, and as an Edinburgh local, it's a favourite for me for no-fuss, casual food. Friendly staff, tasty food at decent prices, and a lovely atmosphere. Recommended for comfort food and great for solo, couples, friends and families.

Relaxed dining. Great food, spotlessly clean and welcoming, friendly staff. Moretti on draught is an added bonus! A real Gem!

Delicious food and quick service. Large portions but excellent quality. Good value for money and very cheerful lunch experience, with that easy going feeling I like. Hands down better than chippies I’ve had previously and beating all burgers I’ve had too. Loved my visit - I will be back for more...

As usual the food and the service was as always first class. The food always arrives hot and appetising to look at, not just tossed on the plate! The staff are attentive when dealing with the customers and couldn't be any more helpful! It's nice to see that the City Restaurant are still maintaining their high standards!
