Booked for daughter in laws birthday 4 adults 3 children. 4 year old ordered pasta, basically macaroni with a sauce that looked like straight from a jar, his comments were that’s discussing, didn’t eat. As for the rest of meal was good but well over priced. Asked in the bar for 2 glasses of rose wine £19.40 thought we were drinking in George Street in Edinburgh not in a small village pub/restaurant. They have got to think about pricing.

Very disappointed. We had heard good things about this place. Very noisy atmosphere; basically a crowded pub. The food is very “artistic”, which we found to mean small portions and inflated prices. I had to send my hake back as it was undercooked; second portion arrived, smaller but still undercooked. Tiny amounts of vegetables and dots of things on the plates. We also felt very rushed indeed; three courses and we were out within a hour and a half! For the price we paid we could have enjoyed much better food and a much better atmosphere elsewhere. Very sad, as this was my birthday! One or two highlights: our waitress was very friendly and polite, so thank you to her. Also - the cocktails were good; we would never come back for dinner, but we would come back for cocktails on a sunny day, sitting outside by the canal.

My wife and I went to The Bridge Inn after a very tiring day walking around Edinburgh during The Fringe - it is always a good sign when, on arrival, the car park is full! On arrival, we were greeted in the most friendly and enthusiastic way by the staff and were immediately made to feel at home. A table was not available straight away but we were served with drinks while a table was prepared quickly, despite the restaurant being almost full - the barman signposting, in a very friendly manner, exactly what he was doing. The menu is fairly simple but with a lot of variety and choice - it caters for pretty much any taste and we were shown to our table quickly and introduced to our waiter who again, welcomed us. We chose a simple steak for myself and a pea risotto for my wife. Being from a retail background, it is always the little things that I look for when I go to a restaurant. Can they do the simple things well? How do they really treat their customers? Are they genuinely interested or just paying lip service? Okay .....Firstly, I would go as far as saying the sirloin steak that I chose was quite possibly the best prepared, best cooked, piece of steak that I have had in a very long while. It is very easy to ruin a good piece of meat but the chef here shows exactly how it should be done - perfectly cooked to my preference. My wife's risotto was also extremely flavoursome and again very well prepared and overall all, the food was excellent in every way. The little things that made our evening just that bit special was the welcome on arrival, the attentiveness of the waiting staff, the willingness of the manager and the chef to come and speak with us and the overall feeling that nothing was too much trouble - even helping us to sort out a taxi when our own failed to turn up. In the current times where many establishments are struggling following COVID, it was a pleasure to see a restaurant that puts its customers experience to the forefront of everything it does and understands the importance of true customer service. I wouldn't usually bother to review a restaurant as most really don't understand this and therefore would end up with a 'it was okay' comment but I felt everybody at The Bridge really understands and encompasses the whole ethos of customer service and therefore deserved a little recognition. To the owners of this small chain of inns, your team at The bridge are an absolute credit to you and provided us with the perfect end to our day in Edinburgh. Thank you guys!

Un accueil très sympathique et un service impeccable. Les plats sont bien cuisinés et l’on retrouve certains standards de la cuisine écossaise : le cullen skink était excellent, accompagné d’un pain qui n’avait rien à envier aux pains français ! C’est la troisième fois que je dîne au Bridge Inn, seule ou à plusieurs, et c’est toujours un plaisir !

Dinner for our party of 6 was amazing! Claire and team welcomed us like family the moment we walked through the door and the food, drink and atmosphere was outstanding. Highly recommend the caesar salad (loved the anchovies), flat iron steak (perfectly cooked), and bangers & mash (the mash was especially good!), and the french martini was delightful. You do not want to skip the absolutely delicious sticky toffee pudding - we almost licked the plate. Lovely Claire gave us a hug when we left. A wonderful experience and highlight of our trip!

We went there for a late lunch as recommended by front desk staff at the Moxy Hotel near the EDI airport. It was one of the two best meals I had in Scotland. I had the strip steak (which was cooked perfectly) with fries. Service was great and it was a great experience in a historic building.

My family and I have visited this restaurant many times and always with good food and service. Unfortunately on my last visit (at the end of October) I was disappointed with everything. There was only my self and my adult daughter visiting and we were seated at a very small table between two families with lots of children (nothing wrong with children) I have grandchildren of my own. One family left and it was at least 40 minutes before the table was cleared. Service was not too good and the choice of menu was abysmal. Three main course dishes of which two where sold out, so why tell us that the special of the day was sold out when we tried to order it. Dessert choice was the same, sold out!!! I left, feeling very disappointed and will not be returning there again (if ever) for some time. One of the options we were offered was a burger (this is a restaurant) I could have gone down the road to McD's for a burger.

Visited with family in August. Food was so so with some options tasty and others not. Pretty pricey for what we ordered and service a bit patchy although realise they were very busy. One thing I did notice was the swing doors out to the garden were very heavy with one child catching their fingers and another toddler, being carried , suffering a bumped head with the door swinging open on approach to leaving the restaurant. This was our third visit in the last few years but don’t think will be back again.

Visited at end of July. Bridge Inn is a lovely place in a beautiful location. Have been a handful of times in the past and the food is lovely.On this occasion we were in for lunch but a couple of wee things annoyed me. I think when you are paying slightly more for your food you should also expect good all round service. My husband ordered a main course and beer and I ordered a cullen skink and a coke. The waitress asked if I would like a larger soup so that it was more like a main course. I thought it was a good idea so said yes. The drinks arrived and the waitress spilled mine when placing it down. She just apologised but didnt wipe up the spillage. We waited a good 35 minutes for the food to arrive and I know it can take time when cooking from fresh so sort of accepted that. When my soup arrived, it had been sloshed about and had nearly overflowed, messing up the rim of the soup plate which didn't look nice. It was more watery than I'd have expected. I tried it to find it was rather cool and my bread hadnt arrived with it at the time either. When we eventually managed to attract the waitress's attention to ask for it to be heated, she said she'd take it back and also said that I would definitely be getting bread. When it arrived back, I noticed that it didnt look like the same soup. The plate was cleaner.... no sloshing marks and the soup was much thicker but far less of it in the plate! I didnt think more about it but just ate it but I have to say it was very tastey... a really nice cullen skink.We were short of time so had to make tracks. We paid the waitress who was very friendly and chatty, then we left.It was later in the day when I asked my husband how much the soup was and it had cost £13!I was shocked at this and wondered if the mistake had happened when the soup was returned and had been replaced by a starter sized portion. It was too late to do anything but if I go again, I'll be more aware next time but it's the little things that spoil the experience, especially when you are paying a bit more than average.

Excellent meal sitting outside on the fantastic patio space, which really is a great setting beside the canal. Very well done and is a super space to sit and grab a bite to eat. Kids loved the squid and chicken wings to start, followed by some great mains, including breaded fish and an excellent pork, chorizo and mushroom pie. Desserts were wolfed down, brownie with pistachio ice cream a particular highlight. Staff were great, cant recommend enough. We were staying at a nearby hotel, which I believe they can run you back to in their mini bus! Seek it out.

This is a really great place to eat. Great location on the canal bank, lovely walks nearby and good parking. The food was to a high standard, my Cullen skink and the steak and ale pie wonderful. .u gluten free wife was well accomodated too. Service was friendly and efficient. If I have to make a comment it is the irritation of having the gratuity added on to the bill. With Service this good, I would probably have given more. It is quite an irritating thing and spoils the ambiance at the end of the meal.

On a recent visit back to Scotland we decided to eat at the Bridge Inn which was a favourite place to visit when we lived in Bathgate.Booking in was easy and the staff were extremely helpful and similarly when we arrived in the evening for our meal.Ordering was fast and efficient and we settled in for a pleasant evening, however that’s when things went slightly sour. I ordered a large portion of fish and chips , my wife a steak. Before I start to express my disappointment I must admit the food served was exceptionally good unfortunately the ridiculous portion size for the prices charged was not. We ordered a desert probably because we were still hungry and were then presented with balls of ice cream which resembled quails eggs, even our server had the grace to look embarrassed.So if you are looking for a nice restaurant in a canal setting representing good value for money then the Bridge Inn is not for you,

I can get a case of 10 guinness from the supermarket for £9.93 and drink in in the heat & comfort of my own house or garden.Question....

En primer lugar, me gustaría comenzar con el hecho de que he comido aquí antes y nunca me ha decepcionado, pero esta noche llevé a mi nieta allí y me decepcionó.En primer lugar, la camarera se equivocó en nuestro pedido y pidió una comida de tamaño completo para nuestra nieta (cuyos 4) y también se olvidó de la leche que pedimos. Mantuvimos la comida Full Size Sausage & Mash), ya que podíamos esperar la correcta ya que la pobre niña se estaba muriendo de hambre. Aunque luchó con el tamaño y la salsa era quizás un poco más rica de lo que estaba acostumbrada.La comida era indiferente, que no era lo que esperábamos. Mi venado estaba bien preparado, pero la hamburguesa y las patatas fritas de mi hijo estaban demasiado saladas. Además, la camarera debería haber mencionado lo que venía con el venado, ya que fácilmente podría haber tenido un plato de acompañamiento, ya que solo 3 pequeños cortes de carne no eran suficientes y el plato parecía vacío.Llegaron los postres y tengo que decir que estaban sabrosos. Aunque tuvimos que pedir cucharas para los 3 platos y tuvimos que esperar por estos también.Cuando llegó la factura, habían corregido el error y cobrado por una comida para niños, pero habían agregado la leche.En general, creo que el personal debe estar debidamente capacitado, ya que decepcionaron al lugar.

Todavía estoy esperando las aceitunas. Después de quejarse con el gerente, solo pudo decir que estaban completos, sin embargo, los vi haciendo pedidos para llevar, evitó nuestra mesa después de eso, esperó más de una hora para nuestro plato principal.

Husband, who usually leaves me to the travel plans, found this place on the internet and what a find it was! We needed a place to stay for one night upon arrival at Edinburgh Airport and before driving to the west coast and the Bridge Inn exceeded our expectations. From the minute we walked through the door, we felt at home and we loved our comfortable room with fabulous bathroom. Dined in the restaurant that evening after enjoying an aperitif in the cosy bar and the food was excellent as was breakfast the following morning. Everyone we encountered was very pleasant and friendly and for sure if we find ourselves in the area on another occasion, we will return to the Bridge Inn. Delightful location within easy reach of the airport and adjacent to the Union Canal which has an interesting history.

We went for dinner here on a Monday evening and the food was very good.Although the restaurant was quite busy when we arrived we were seated quickly enough but felt after that the service was inconsistent and laboured.The saving grace was the food being good but taking the whole experience and price in to consideration I wouldn't hurry back as there better options at this price point.

My husband and I stayed at the Bridge Inn for 5 days in September 2019. We were attending a wedding in the area and chose the hotel because its in a quiet and beautiful country setting and we were looking for a more personal experience instead of a large hotel. We wanted to be close to Edinburgh (the tram station is a 10 minute drive.) And, we wanted to be able to easily drive to other tourist sites in the area. We looked at the photos on line and it all looked so beautiful and romantic. We also looked at the menu and the reviews and decided it would be the place for us. There were a lot of expectations and we were not disappointed. We arrived late in the afternoon and were welcomed and made to feel at home by the staff. We settled in the bar area and struck up some good conversation with the bartender and one of the locals. We ate at the Inn's restaurant several times and the food was outstanding. They are recommended by Michelin and we learned that they are very particular about where they source all their ingredients. Lots of organic and locally grown food here and it tastes very fresh and is very skillfully prepared. The soups and salads were beyond good and my husband enjoyed all of his meals too. A great breakfast came with our room. The pancakes and maple syrup, fresh pressed apple juice, and ham were out of this world. Our room was cozy and comfy -- just what we needed after a long day of sightseeing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and recommend this place.

Pros:-We ate at lunchtime from the main menu on a Saturday. It was busy but not too busy. We never had a booking although got the impression we arrived at the right time to be accepted.-Friendly attentive service.-Scollop starter as expected, pigeon starter was tastier than it looked. Venison main was a mixed review, the meat itself was just right with a lovely gravy.-Has a kind of tea room feel to it however It does has an spacious and fresh vibe as well. -Situated next to a canal if you want to go for a wander.Cons:-Diffrent sized chairs, I was too high and towering over my meal and had to get this swapped although staff were fine with this.-cheesecake texture was rubbery, lacked taste and presentation although edible.-pigeon starter presentation messy.-venison meat bonbon was dry and oyster mushrooms unpleasant texture.-Passion fruit martini not to my liking, a little harsh, needs to be softer/fruitier. I find it varies depending on where you go. *I wanted to give 3* but got the impression they can do better and a few small issues which can easily be fixed so I would return.

A long hard day walking the canal was broken up by as couple of drinks in The Bridge. A good spot, the food looked tasty and the staff were pleasant.

Das Personal war sehr freundlich und bemüht und die Speisen eine Mischung aus traditionellen schottischen und kontinentalen Variationen. Obwohl beim servieren der Chickenburger auf den Boden fiel wurde er in 3 Minuten neu serviert . Das ganze Essen war sehr gut.

Había pensado en visitar en muchas ocasiones. Lugar ideal para almorzar si deja a la familia en el aeropuerto, un delicioso pastel de carne, muy caliente. No habíamos reservado el almuerzo del domingo, pero tuvimos la suerte de encontrar una mesa en la zona del bar, que era preciosa y probablemente nos vino mejor que estar en el comedor principal, un ambiente muy cómodo y relajado. Disfruté de una excelente copa de vino blanco, aunque podría haber elegido una copa más pequeña si hubiera visto el precio en la lista de bebidas. No estoy seguro de cómo me perdí esto, ¡pero fue realmente bueno!

Bien. Amo mi comida y una buena cerveza. Entramos en el canal después de navegar desde Falkirk. Creo que este es el primer pub al lado del canal que hemos pasado.

Excelente comida, personal amable y una hermosa vista desde las mesas del balcón que dan al canal. Como somos clientes habituales para el almuerzo o la cena, nos sentamos afuera, donde el menú del jardín tiene una excelente relación calidad-precio y todos los gustos conocemos bien el lugar. Las porciones son generosas y la calidad de primera, cada plato que hemos probado muestra atención al detalle [y en varias visitas, que es la mayoría de ellas], todas están muy bien presentadas. El lado oeste de Edimburgo siempre ha necesitado un lugar fuera de la ciudad como este, ideal para familias y paseadores de perros. ¡Bien abajo TEAM TBI! Además, después de una deliciosa comida, puede tener un gran paseo por la orilla del canal; ¿Qué más se puede pedir? Mmmmmmm. Aunque, conozco y me encantan las hamburguesas, que son fantásticas para todos [con o sin los complementos], sería genial poder pedir filetes, papas fritas y ensaladas como alternativa en ocasiones. Puede ser la próxima vez que sea lo suficientemente descarado como para preguntar! ! ! !

What a great experience we had over 4 days/nights at this lovely Inn in the quiet village of Ratho. (a few miles from the airport with easy access to Edinburgh via tram station just a few miles away) We were greeted warmly upon arrival and efficiently checked in to The Boddington room overlooking scenic and historic Union Canal. Rooms have everything you need and you can’t beat living over the excellent bar and dining that is just below. Breakfast is cooked to order and included in your rate and the service and the breakfast food are excellent. (Full Scottish breakfast is excellent as is the pancake and bacon breakfast.....fresh croissants are incredible) Complements to the chef and the entire cooking staff for doing an outstanding job. For four days there was no need to dine anywhere else. Everything we ate was excellent! (Highly recommend the Pie of the day, Mac and cheese, burgers and the pan seared sea trout) There is a lot of history about Union Canal if you read the little postcard history book left in your room. Excellent walk in both directions along the canal. Many thanks to the entire staff for a wonderful experience, including excellent service by everyone including Iona, Amanda, Taylor and Emma. Thank you Emma Sanderson for recommending The Bridge Inn and we look forward to our next visit!

While we had a negative experience with our room, the dinner and breakfast were excellent and I'd highly recommend. This chef knows his stuff. Our Chicken pie was incredible! They said it would be a 20 to 25 minute wait, which we appreciated because it meant they were baking it to order. Perfect flaky crust and the filling was extraordinary.

We had a lovely 4 mile walk along the union canal and stopped at The Bridge Inn for lunch. A lovely setting on a beautiful sunny day. Sat outside looking over the union canal, dogs allowed which was great. Food was delicious and presentation was excellent (even the real flowers that were edible) staff were attentive and service was first class. Would definitely recommend and hope to return on our next visit to Edinburgh.

Looking for somewhere to eat when staying at an airport hotel, TripAdvisor suggested this place. What great food, service, ambience and value for money. Certainly a place to go rather than boring airport hotel food.

Had yet another great meal with attentive and polite service! Even though just had the fish and chips this time the food was still prepared and cooked beautifully. The batter was light and crispy with lovely mushy peas and great tartar sauce! Be warned, the large is very big!

We wanted a country pub lunch and came across the Bridge Inn on TA. What an unexpectedly awesome experience. The food was just outstanding and the service (Gwen looked after us) was perfect. I tried the Cullen Skink and it was delicious. Not sure I’ll ever be able to have it anywhere else now.... After a disappointingly average meal in a Glasgow pub the night before, this was a revelation. Scottish food can be really, truly excellent.

Arrived by chance and we were shocked to see that they could fit us in and we sat in the bar area as we weren't wanting a big meal. The quality of the food and the service that we received was first class, I had the Fish & Chips and my wife had the Fishcakes, both meals were fantastic. The staff were so attentive and couldn't have been nicer. The only down side to the visit was the mess at the side of the establishment, just needs a good tidy up.

Stopped for lunch and a pint. Tennents was good and so was the mixed vegetable soup. Hot and with nice bread. Others had Cullen Skink and mini fish and chips. All good. Outside, sat in the blazing sun. The pub is very smart and right next to the canal. We just beat the lunchtime rush. All tables taken but plenty of room inside. Its maybe a 20 minute drive from the middle of Edinburgh but worth a look. Very popular with dog owners and cyclists. Wouldn't mind living in the house on the other side of the canal.

Went back to the Bridge Inn at Ratho with some friends as we had been so impressed with it the first time we visited. Not disappointed. Food was all very well done. Flavours were excellent, service was good and price was great. There was a delay in getting our sweets to us but we hadn't really noticed but they gave them to us free when it came to paying the bill. The service, atmosphere, the food is just spot on.

Llamamos aquí para almorzar el fin de semana, no es un área en la que haya estado antes. Ubicado en el lado del canal, ofrece buenos senderos / rutas de ciclismo (aunque no pudimos experimentarlas). Estaríamos de acuerdo en reunirnos con la familia aquí y nos sorprendió lo ocupada que estaba, nos las arreglamos para tomar una mesa en la zona del bar, ya que no tenían mesas de repuesto en el restaurante. Funcionó bien, ya que pude ver el fútbol de Sky Sports mientras comíamos: -)

Esta fue mi segunda vez aquí. El servicio fue excelente. Agua fría en la mesa. Optamos por 2 entrantes de salmón para compartir y luego tuvimos 2 platos de carne para compartir mientras mi hija tenía el pastel de carne y cerveza. La comida era muy buena. El restaurante se llenó a medida que avanzaba la hora del almuerzo. Volvería de nuevo.

Hemos comido aquí unas cuantas veces, y siempre estamos impresionados con la comida. La calidad del servicio de todo el personal también es muy buena. En esta ocasión, aunque hay un extenso menú, toda nuestra familia comía hamburguesas y todos estaban deliciosos. ¡Práctico para pasear por el canal después de una comida abundante! Definitivamente una "visita de destino" para nuestra familia, pero recomendaría una visita.

Acabo de tener una gran comida aquí. La comida era muy tonta. Las vieiras para un aperitivo eran perfectas, entonces el pastel de la casa y el bacalao eran excelentes. Buena comida, bien cocinada y muy bien presentada. El costo fue de un muy buen 55 con una copa de Merlot y una coca cola. Muy buena relación calidad-precio también.
