The Broughton

Got a table by chance - we didn't even know that this place is on the Michelin list! We had the roast beef and fish and chips, both were delicious. The roast beef is medium rare, perfectly cooked. The chips was soft on the inside and crispy on the outside. Shout out to the homemade lemonade - sweet, tart, fizzy and zingy. Will definitely visit again but probably should reserve ahead...

The Broughton was suggested to us by a local who works at Johnny Walker. The food was the best food we've had in 2 years. Dean waited on us with great care. He provided us with fantastic recommendations. The duck and venison were cooked to perfection. Masterful work by the chef.

The place is nice, surrounded by locals. The food was delicious but the portions a little short. The service excellent. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. I highly recommend to make a reservation.

Exceptional service, atmosphere, and food. We ordered the heirloom tomato salad to start, which is one of the best tomato salads I’ve ever had in my life. My wife is a vegetarian and ordered the Caesar salad, the flatbread, and chips, all of which were excellent - I had some of the Caesar and chips (of course!). I had the pork as my main, which is one of the top 3 (in no specific order) pork mains I’ve ever had (along with Katsu in Tokyo, and a pork mains from Published in Vancouver). My brother recently visited on a Sunday and had the roast, which he said was exceptional. You must go if you live in or are visiting Edinburgh!

Saw this on the Michelin Guide site, and so glad that I decided to make a reservation. Probably one of the best meals I had in Scotland. The staff was able to give excellent recommendations like the Steak Tartar and a wine pairing to go with my Borders Lamb. Even with the Michelin recommendation, Broughton had a contemporary relaxed feel that makes it easy to recommend stopping in

We made reservations and enjoyed a fabulous meal in a family filled casual elegant dining establishment. We had the prawns & crumpets, Caesar salad and the spring chicken with morels. Exquisite! My dirty martini hit the spot!

Lovely restaurant with great food. Sophie was a very attentive & friendly service. We ordered flatbread & fish & chips to share, & two glasses of white wine. When I couldn’t decide between two kind that I hadn’t heard of, she brought tastings of each — so kind! Then the food! For us Americans used to this flatbreads, theirs is about an inch thick & rather pillowy, more like focaccia, which they also offer as an appetizer. The fish was fresh, moist & flaky, the batter crispy thin, crunchy & light - almost like a delicious shellac (if know what I mean?). But the chips! Wow! Crunchy, sweet/sour salty, and soft clouds of hot potato inside, almost like thick stick of mashed potatoes packaged in a crispy casing. Heaven in every bite! Apparently, the chef steams the (thick) potato sticks, let them cool, then fries them super crunchy, then sprinkles them with two types of salt (one’s called black thorn). That’s what we remember the host saying anyway — sorry if some details are off! Regardless, I’d go back just for the potatoes!

Excellent restaurant with great fish and chips and wonderful pork chop. Nice dessert and white selection of drinks. Unmatchable ambience. Highly recommend.
