The Broughton

We had an incredible experience at the Broughton yesterday. We came to the restaurant for a special occasion and were made to feel really welcome by the staff, who were all friendly and attentive. We ordered focaccia for starters, the shared sirloin steak for the main, and sticky toffee for the dessert. All three of these dishes were really delicious, and I couldn’t recommend them enough. We also ordered cocktails, which they had a good selection of, and they were very nice too. We ended up staying a little over our reservation time (tables of 2 are reserved for 1hr 45mins), but this wasn’t any issue as we were given a nice seat nearer the bar where we could remain for as long as we wanted and order more drinks there. The Broughton really live up to their motto of ‘everyone’s local’ and we wouldn’t hesitate to come here again. For the quality of the food and the level of service, I would say that the place is incredible value for money. I would recommend a reservation if coming at busy times.

We came here with a reservation after seeing it in the Michelin Guide, and it definitely lived up to it. The food was amazing, the ambience was excellent and the service was very good. We started with the cheese and truffle croquettes and it was absolutely delicious. I had the sirloin and my partner had the cod. Both were beautifully cooked and full of flavor. Just a note: it gets very busy and tables are typically booked for around 1.5 hours, so plan accordingly.

WOW. We came across this place one hungry night and stepped in knowing very little about what to expect. The service and the food then proceeded to blow us away. In particular, our server recommended the pâté as a must not miss and he was *not* kidding. It was sublime and served with 2 slices of buttery brioche toast, and I'm still thinking about that dish weeks later. We also had a beet salad, a steak dish, and each dish was top notch. The server was charming, funny, and helpful- everything we needed after a tough day. We will definitely be back.

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 food, service and overall experience we had when attending for a works Xmas lunch was amazing. Absolutely no hesitation in recommending to anyone wanting to have a drink in a nice environment or have some quality food.

5 star restaurant in central Edinburgh. Our local friends love the food and service here. Hubby and I ordered the Dry-aged Perthshire sirloin for two. Delicious coupled with potato and green beans. Our table also ordered dessert, the star for me was the Dark chocolate delice, pistachio, black cherry. Service and atmosphere met the food. A definite comeback and referral when in Edinburgh.

The service was so professional and we were provided fantastic recommendations. We had a beef tartar for starter, steak for main and chocolate mousse as desert, all maid excellently. Everything just melted in our mouth.

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.
