Overview

Great spacious restaurant just off the Royal Mile with variety of food, drinks and a log fire to keep you warm!

Transport & Parking

Cowgate isn't the easiest of places to get to, a number 2 bus will take you to grassmarket and then you can go along Cowgate to get to the restaurant but the pavements are narrow and fairly bumpy. The best access and least steep root from the Royal Mile would be to go down St. Mary's Street. There is very limited parking on and near the Cowgate but there are some spaces near St. Mary's Street.

Access

There are two entrances, the level entrance is at the Holyrood Road side of the restaurant where there is a double door entrance (although fairly heavy but staff are nearby to help if needed). When inside, the restaurant is spacious, there are a variety of seating some tables have benches already attached but there are also tables with chairs that can be moved - I would recommend booking especially on evenings and weekends to make sure you get a suitable table. There is level access throughout the ground floor (there is also an upstairs) and a cosy fire to sit beside when it's cold outside! It's spacious to move around and there was a clear walkway past the bar when we were there. It's mainly table service although you can go to the bar if you want!

Toilets

The accessible toilet is on the right of the accessible entrance, it is locked but the key is kept behind the bar (probably because the other toilets are upstairs and a little out of the way). I didn't use it myself but heard good reports!

Staff

The staff were really friendly and were happy to leave the accessible toilet open when we were there for easy access.
