Holy Cow is such a staple for me on my visits to Edinburgh. The food is so comforting and…read moredelicious. Holy cow is 100% plant based and has a wide variety of options to choose from. Most recently, I had the english breakfast and it was a hardy plate full of all the essentials. Everything on it was excellent. I was also excited to see that they had a house-made pumpkin spice latte on the menu, even in July! Holy Cow can get very busy (when I was there on a Thursday, one group after another came in.) But they do a good job at seating everyone quickly, as well as taking orders and bringing out food promptly. During my last visit, I was seated inside, but previously I got to enjoy their back patio. The latter is really lovely on a rare sunny day in Edinburgh. Either way, you'll enjoy your time here.

Place was empty on a Monday afternoon visiting the area. I ordered the steak sandwich which was dry and the bread hard.

Kids' Mac and cheese wasn't all that but the pulled pork was good. Wouldn't recommend but it was not horrific.

Definitely recommend this cute breakfast place. Rating: 4.7/5.0

We decided on this restaurant late in the day, and the only reservation was late...we took it but showed up a couple hours early, and with a short wait, they were able to seat us at a nice table on a busy evening. Grateful for that! My wife and I shared two starters, the final and the smoked tofu. We loved everything about both of these dishes in taste and presentation. We also shared the Double-Baked Pudding - a delicate dish sort of like a soufflé made with a nice cheese ambiance about it. Really good flavors and Scottish ingredients for the win. We liked it, though the starters were definitely the stars of the meal for us. We didn't have a cocktail as we were heading out to a whisky bar later (and we have limits ;) but the cocktail menu looked delicious and what we saw being delivered to other tables also had as second guessing those limits we have for ourselves. We're lucky to have stumbled on this spot...off the beaten path, but close enough to the Royal Mile to make it accessible on foot. It's an especially great find for vegetarians and one of the best vegetarian-specific restaurants we've been to anywhere.

It's simple but tasteful. Our server Iona, brought us to our table at the window where we were able to watch the world walk by. Iona was very helpful and guided us to make excellent choices. She's very friendly and professional. For lunch we chose several starters and a main. The starters included the short crust tart that was a delicate pastry filled with clarified onion and cheese. Totally delicious. My wife enjoyed the dinner salad with very fresh veggies. We also chose the lemon braised fennel and David's tofu. We were trying to she appetite for dinner and only ordered one main, the Koftas. They are like an eggplant felafel. They were delicious. The slightly spicy curry sauce in which they were served was also great.

I need the exercise) reminded me I had yet to visit Breadshare. The first thing that hits you is the wonderful smell of bread. The kitchen where they bake is wide open for public view and you can have a glimpse of it as you walk by towards the bathrooms. They do all sorts of nutty / seedy /cheesy breads, croutons, and focaccias - most of which are suitable for vegans as they start with a vegan base then add in other ingredients. Service was excellent - the server (owner?) talked us through the many vegan options, which included butternut squash, aduki bean, and smoked jalapeno soup, the many suitable breads, and the bean stew. Soya milk and oat milk is also available for teas and coffees, as well as a dairyfree spread for bread. Sadly, no vegan cakes in today, but I'm sure with advanced notice some would be available. She said although she isn't vegan her daughters are, so she has a lot of experience in vegan cooking and is soon to try out vegan meringue recipes.... all going well she will offer them for sale in the cafe. That will be exciting! High chairs are available for little eaters, and the hand drier in the bathroom has excellent power!

I tried their burger too (my gf had one) and it was so good! They have their own "meat" inside burger which makes burger special. I can only recommend for something to eat, or just sit down for a beer with friends.

We also had the fish and chips, which has been the closest vegan resemblance to fish and chips I have ever seen! It even came with mayo and mushy peas. For dessert we had pineapple upside down cake, which was warm and the perfect balance of sweet and tart. A great find in Edinburgh!

Lunch stop on our first full day in Edinburgh (and first full day in Scotland), and it had to be…read moreHaggis...specifically vegetarian haggis (which we learned upon arrival is actually fairly easy to get all over Scotland). The Haggis Box is perfectly located on The Royal Mile heading towards Holyrood House. Quick note on finding it...there is construction on the front of the building so if you're heading in that direction (Down the Royal Mile, toward Holyrood House) you might not notice the entrance...you can get in through a small door to the left of the scaffolding, and if you pass all that you'll see the restaurant signage and another door to the right of the scaffolding.) You order at the counter, and they bring it to the table. The vegetarian haggis was good...you can pick from a couple different sauces. We had the more traditional whisky and mustard sauce. Haggis, at least in our experience on this trip, having the vegetarian version at a few different places, doesn't have a ton of flavor on its own, so it really depends on the sauce to make or break the dish. In this case, the sauce made the dish! They're very vegetarian-friendly here...they have both vegetarian and vegan versions of their haggis, which we hadn't seen anywhere else (lots of vegetarian or vegan haggis in Scotland...but both options in one place...go Haggis Box!) We also tried an Irn Bru...granted that's not specific to this place, but they had it. We tried it. No offense, Scotland, I don't think we need to have it again. ;) The Haggis Box had other vegetarian options too, including quiche, soup, and porridge (aka oatmeal), so if you're a vegetarian like me, you will have plenty to choose from at The Haggis Box. Well worth a lunch stop here to try vegetarian Haggis!

We ordered a Traditional Haggis with the Whisky and Mustard Sauce and an order of the Scotch Eggs (served cold). Now, the haggis was delicious especially with the tasty sauce poured over it. The dish was served over a bed of turnips and mashed potatoes (neeps & tatties). Very traditional and tasty. Definitely worth the visit for this dish. The Scotch Eggs were not too tasty and I'm not sure why they were served cold. My wife says she's had them warm before and tasted much better that way. This was my first time trying Scotch Eggs so I didn't know what to expect. This dish was served with salad and potato chips (crisps). I did have a Thistly Cross Scottish Cider with this meal and that was very good. I'll keep an eye out for this cider elsewhere for future drinking occasions. Go here for the great haggis and super casual ambiance.
