The Paper Mill in Midlothian

Excellent location! Service is friendly, efficient, and quick even during a busy weekend lunch service. Food is cooked well and with attention to detail. Unfortunately few vegetarian or vegan options on the menu, and it can get quite noisy. Overall I would recommend it.

What a great atmosphere, I was here doing a job supplying my photo booth for customer's having a birthday event, but stayed and had a drink in the bar. Great staff, great atmosphere and overall great experience, didn't have food but it looked awesome and will be definitely bringing the wife some time soon.

Excellent restaurant. The best I've visited in Scotland in 3 years I am living here. Perfect food, good managenent, good service (on Sunday night), very good atmosphere. We spent some minutes in the entrance close to the fire place. Thank you very much for night to remember. Jose (Spanish)

I have to say the food very well presented, but not perfect. The ambiance is great for a fun night out, but unless you're pretty young it's not for a romantic evening. The staff very pleasant although they were run ragged. Service fast and efficient, couldn't fault them. One disappointing thing a scallop on the plate sitting in horseradish sauce pretty contradictory to delicate flavour and texture.

One of my favourite places, staff have been working there a while and they know what they are doing.Excellent drinks, food can be good.There are a LOT of items on the menu. Some of them are solid and enjoyable, some don't really work. I would bring it down to a few classics, and then maximum 4-5 dishes for each course. I had the Bruschetta, with pesto and mushrooms. Interesting mix, but unfortunately a bit soggy. The burgers and steak are excellent no fault there.

Went in for Christmas lunch and it was superb. Staff were amazing and it's dog friendly.

Went for Christmas lunch we had a puppy with us so had to eat in the bar well I would never have known. The bar area is gorgeous with a lovely fire. The staff were absolutely brilliant the food was delicious and the cocktails 😋😋definitely worth 5☆☆☆☆☆will definitely be back. Thank you for a fabulous day😀

I fall in love with this place! Amazing atmosphere, food delicious, service very nice and fast. I really like the style inside. Definitely will come back! Free car parking.

The staff were friendly, the atmosphere was great with the bar and restaurant seating areas being very cosy and aesthetic. I got a salted caramel espresso martini and it was probably the best I’ve ever had, even the foam had a great taste. The beef burger was average, the brioche bun was a little dry and the sauce was scarce. The side of chips was crispy on the outside and fluffy inside, very impressive. Fish and chips on the menu was also great. Thank would easily resturn for some drinks and bar snacks.

Great restaurant with a varied food and drink menu, great atmosphere and subtle decore, staff were very accommodating a nice lunch alround.
