Incredibly tasty chilli with sour creme, rice and tortilla chips. The beef was perfectly spiced. I really enjoyed it.The steak and ale pie was excellent as well. The pastry on top was flaky and made for a great dish.Drinks were great too!

Absolutely lovely food. Try the haggis and mash absolutely amazing. Unfortunately even I had a great time, at the end I was a little puzzled. The bill was 29 pounds and I gave a 50 note. I said, make it thirty please. And the lady gave me back just a few coins. I waited and after I said I gave you a fifty, she said she was just making a stupid mistake. I know this can happen but I was a bit upset after at the thought I may have been tried and it kind of stressed me a little thinking about it :) I know mistakes happen, but in my mind there's no way you can pay for a 30 pound meal with only one note and not get some note back.

Was having a lovely day out with the wife until we got here.They offer a cocktail called the Bloody Maggie, very similar to the Mary but it is advertised to also come with a Port float. The cocktail was made and put in front of me but I'd seen it made and there was no port float. I asked and was told they didn't have any Port.And this is where it gets weird.I said that's OK, I'll just take another shot of vodka. At this point the lady stormed off muttering that she'd check in the back of they had any Port. Came back and said no, they didn't have any. I repeated that is be happy with another shot of vodka to make up the shortfall for what I'd paid for only to be told that would be illegal (it isn't AFAIK). Then said that she'd give me a new drink if I wasn't happy and at this point I said yes, I'll have a pint of Guinness.Even weirder now..She refunds me the money for the cocktail and gives me my Guinness. I offer to pay for the Guinness but she won't take it (this is appreciated) but did seem to contradict the illegal statement earlier.We drank quickish and leave.

Nice and friendly, but you don't see menu card so it is hard to figure out if you are on a budget nightout.Price menu card should be given upfront.

Haggis neeps and tatties introduced to our American cousins. A little bit to much pepper but tasted superb all the same. The lassie working the bar was the hostess with the mostess and dealt with the unruly transatlantic drunks with poise and professionalism.

Smashing place with comfortable surroundings, helpful friendly staff and a good atmosphere. There's a good selection of drinks and the prices are decent for the location i.e. Central Edinburgh tourist/student trap. 😉 The layout is quite tight but it has plenty of seating options.They had live music on on the Saturday night we were in there and it was very good and not too loud to drown out our conversation.Well worth a visit if you're in the area.

We originally came in here after we had heard about the history regarding Maggie Dicksons, if you don't know about her yet then definitely Google! Lovely quaint tavern as I like to call them. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff 👌. We sat for an hour and a half having drinks and just able to sit and chill. However they do, do food as well. Highly recommended.

Maggie's is a lively pub with a great vibe & live music. It's chill, but still busy & upbeat (if that makes any sense). Prices might not be overly cheap, but they are definitely reasonable, and the bar staff are attentive and quick. It was exactly what we were looking for after an evening tour.
