Usually free breakfasts are so so. Found this breakfast to be better than that. Serve hot breakfast and lots of options for continental.

Last meal with our daughter before she starts nearby University, as you can imagine it was a fairly emotional night. We were seated in the bar and ordered 2 portions of fish and chips and a plain pizza, nothing complicated, or so you would of...thought. Service was very slow, looked as though there was only a young lad on duty. Food arrived fairly quickly, the fish was extremely greasy and the batter was soggy, the chips were almost at the point of being burnt, and the pizza was swimming in grease, daughter could only eat 2 slices of it. The young lad serving was very busy as we couldn’t get his attention, the hotel restaurant manager just ignored us and walked passed several times. Rather than make a fuss my daughter just wanted to leave. G If your after informal, decent, well cooked food, go elsewhere. Spoilt, what was an emotional night.More
This has had a lovely refurb, great drinks, and the grub is very tasty. The bar manager has been here for years and really knows the local area, he saved our holiday with his wit and service. Fantastic
Our 9 days in Edinburgh gave us a chance to enjoy breakfast, lunch, dinner and room service with the Neighbourhood. I am in a wheelchair which is a challenge at restaurants, but they made it easy every time we dined. Even when we were joined...by our 5 other family members. Our meals were great with many choices, the prices were nice, and the staff was friendly and attentive. A highlight to on trip!More
Dear 482judithw, Thank you so much for your lovely review, we are all delighted you enjoyed your extended stay with us. Hopefully you will get a chance to return to us in the future. Regards Alistair Bruce General Manager
Booked a table for two tonight. Walked into the bar. Completed ignored. Made our way over the restaurant whereby a sullen girl pointed to the window. Weren’t given any menus. Ignored by multiple staff. Seriously couldn’t be less impressed so walked out. Don’t bother if...you want to be made to feel invisible.More
Dear Meaner758659, Thank you for your review, however I am so disappointed that you had such a poor welcome to our venue. Please would you accept my most sincere apologies for this. I have used your feedback to highlight this to my team and I...More
Situated across from the Meadows in a hotel The Neighbourhood has a lot of competition in its Neighbourhood. There’s a seated section to the back which you can access another area. When we went it was quite busy so some food orders took longer to...arrive and some drinks orders were accidentally missed. The food when it came was nice. I had the beef and pork nduja meatballs that eventually turned up and were piping hot when they did. I’d maybe venture to other establishments close by before rushing back for seconds.More
Went for a meal for 4 on a Friday evening and really enjoyed it. The waiter was very attentive and also let us sit on our table early. The food was fairly good (although not amazing), however was on the expensive side for some of...the mains. Would suggest the chicken but would avoid the classic fish and chips. Dessert was really good and would recommend the eton mess.More
Decent menu choices and easy access made this restaurant a good choice. We dined early so the place was quiet. Service was excellent.
We stayed at the hotel and went a few times - for breakfast, lunch and a few drinks. The Scottish Grill is excellent, and the fish n' chips are really good. They also have a lovely selection of whiskys. The bar room is really nice.
Our experience at Bisque Brasserie was wonderful. We had an amazing afternoon for our families pre-Christmas get-together. Our group of 14 were effortlessly accommodated, from a few drinks in the bar before we sat down in the lovely restaurant to have our meal. The whole...booking process was easy and efficient, the food was beautiful, and the service delightful. While all the food was beautiful and highly complimented, a special mention to the fish & chips, which got unusually high praise from the fussiest of eaters in our clan. Thank you to all in Bisque Brasserie team, to Colin and the kitchen team, and to Fiona in reservations. Great day had by all, we look forward to being back again soon.More
We booked lunch for a family meal including 2 elderly parents, between Christmas and New Year. Had a table in the conservatory which was bright and has doors opening onto a patio. I should imagine the outdoor tables would be popular on a sunny day....Service was attentive and all our courses were nicely presented and very tasty. We decided to go for lunch on New Years Day. Bisque had a table available. We were happy to return after a successful first visit. Two of us had chicken and haggis wrapped in prosciutto, followed by pear and apple crumble with clotted cream. I can honestly say it was one of the nicest meals I’ve had. We’ve just moved to the area and Bisque is already a favourite.More
Stayed here on business with a colleague. The caesar salad starter was basic and tasty, but to be fair, I asked for no anchovies or Parmesan.. Kevs nachos were great he said. The steak frites was brilliant, cooked as requested, juicy and great value for...money. All washed down with a lovely Merlot. Would happily recommend.More
I often took colleagues and business partners to Bisque for early evening dinner because it's close to my work place and the place is good for having conversations. We realised a few months a go at they removed the early dinner set menu which offered...good value for money. A few weeks a go we had another dinner there and because they no longer did the early dinner menu we went for ala carte menu, which was acceptable. Tonight I had to take business colleagues for early dinner and decided to try for the set menu. We opted for £22 main course and dessert meal. 3 courses menu is £28. All of us ordered seabass which came with some veggie (no potatoes). The portion was very small and it tastes average. We only drank water no alcohol. By the end of the meal we didn't feel that we had eaten, despite the fact that we spent around £73 (including service charge).The service was so so. I decided to find another venue around Bruntsfield that offers better value of money and food. It's very disappointing as I really like the venue and the location is very convenient.More
Dear nct2012 Thank you for your feedback following your recent visit to Bisque Brasserie. Something has gone wrong at the time you visited as all our menu dishes are appropriately sized and include appropriate accompaniments of vegetables, potatoes, pasta or pulses. We would like to...More
This was our second stay at the Bruntsfield Best Western and each time we enjoyed our experience with their restaurant The Bisque Brasserie. We ate two nights at the Bisque. Our food was excellent and presented very well. The servers were very helpful and made...our experience a pleasure. I remembered having a drink which I thought was a cucumber martini that I loved. So when I came back and asked for it the bartender remembered that is was a Elderberry Fiz and fulfilled my request. An excellent drink that I really enjoyed on both occasions when I ate at the Bisque. The Sea bass was excellent and served very attractively. The fish and chips and salmon were also excellent. I think they serve one of the best Sticky Toffee Puddings I've ever had. I recommend this restaurant and will return.More
Came for our last meal in Edinburgh and it was our best. I have a sever nut allergy and they catered for it so well, even made me a starter not on the menu. Service was such a high standard, polite and friendly staff. I...had the chicken and haggis main and it was perfectly done. Can't recommend enough.More
