As always plenty of spacious tables to choose from, especially by their numerous windows giving great views of "the bridge" and the Forth. Service here is very easy both in terms of drinks and food, very good menu choice (a la carte, fixed menu and daily specials), no delays for food, waiting staff very attentive without being overbearing, food excellent...

My husband and I stayed here in 2008, and were very impressed by the friendly and helpful staff. We were please to find the Inn was so close to the train station, as we had one day to explore Edinburgh. It took almost no time to get to Waverley Station, allowing us plenty of time to walk the Royal Mile,... More

I ordered lamb meat balls lassagne and it seemed that it had been left in the oven all day as it was inedible. Sweet was cold rhubarb with a sugar glaze and was a tiny portion. The staff in this place are abrupt and surly to the point of being rude. The motto appears to be " service with a... More

I was recommended this place by friends who stayed last year during the festival. We had high expectations of good food and service and so after a day sightseeing in Edinburgh thought we would end our day with some good food. Well on the way in, it was busy enough, and we asked at the bar if we could still... More

I have stayed here before. As always the staff are very friendly and welcoming. Great location and lots of character inside. Rooms could do with a little update, but are clean and cozy. Would be nice to be shown to the room....I had number four which was outside around the back. My only disappointment was the food. I had salad,... More

We arrived on our first afternoon to find that all of our party who had booked in July 2012 via the Internet had only been booked in for two nights. Initially it was said that this was... More

Had a lovely long weekend at the Hawes Inn, excellent food, good variable menu at reasonable prices. Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful woodland walk along the coast towards Edinburgh. Hotel is situated on the shoreline directly beneath the historic Forth Bridge(railway), at first sight we thought we would be disturbed by the noise of the constant rail traffic above,... More

Just had a 1 night stay at the hawes inn & was very impressed! Great location, friendly service & exceptional value for money. Room 10 had amazing views & nice decor with a bit of character. Highly reccommended.

Having visited this establishment as a 7-strong family group on Easter Monday, I have to admit it was with some trepidation as other restaurants we had tried were fully booked. Not so with the Hawes Inn. This typical Scottish pub style restaurant is located on the banks of the Forth underneath the road and rail bridges. If you are lucky... More
