The Stair Arms - Edinburgh, City of

Three members of our family hadn't been to The Stair Arms Hotel in over 50 years, and we returned to relive happy childhood memories. We were not disappointed! While the interior has changed significantly, the atmosphere remains wonderful, and the staff were very friendly. When we arrived, the dining area wasn't too busy, but it quickly filled up. Our order was taken promptly, and although there was a bit of a wait between courses, it was nothing to complain about. The food was delicious, and the dessert portions were enormous. I would say the prices were a bit on the high side for what we ordered, but the experience was well worth the trip down memory lane.

The ambiance brought back memories of the original Stair Arms Inn. It's the type of place where locals celebrate their birthdays. The food was delightful and ranked as one of our favorite meals from the trip.

We had a lovely lunch today with family. We ordered the Christmas meal, which arrived piping hot and was enjoyed by everyone. The decor was beautiful, and the cozy wood burner kept us warm. The staff were helpful and friendly. The sticky toffee pudding cheesecake was excellent. We would definitely come back!

Nice atmosphere and decor. Service great, lovely wait staff. The kitchen is really letting this place down. So much potential, but the food was of poor quality and overpriced. The pizza looked and tasted like frozen Pizza from Iceland. The burger was gristly, fatty and overcooked, served on a cheap roll. Steak pie was ok, edible at least.

We stayed in the Hotel for 2 nights and thought the food good value for money. The breakfast had a limited menu but was hot and came quickly. the ingredients were a little basic for me , but cooked and edible. The main meal I had in the restaurant in the evening was much better . The fish strips fresh fish and home made and the service very good . The staff worked hard to serve a table of 14 . hot food value for money and tasty .
