Was here last week for breakfast. Scottish vegetarian breakfast was awesome. And so was the egg Benedict.
All in all, a decent place to have breakfast.

What a marvelous place! We just came back from nine days in the Higlands and were staying across the plaza and needed a place for a simple dinner. The food and the team who works here are lights out. This place was jumping on a Saturday night, bustling with locals and out-of-town people like me alike! I even went to the bar as this tourist was struggling with finding the App where the bar- maid so assisted me with the sweetest attitude and hospitality ever! Hope to return some day soon, but you can go now if your nearby city center!

Typical Spoons. Came here for a drink after visiting nearby restaurant. Cocktail pitchers are good value, especially in Edinburgh City Centre. Beer garden quite large, and nice to enjoy sunny day/evening. Ladies toilets were out of toilet roll in every stall, apart from the one with the blocked toilet, so had to take paper from there. Toilets are supposed to be checked every hour and it looked like hadnt been all night.

Another great Wetherspoons location! Easy service, friendly staff, decent food, LOTS of brews to choose from and most importantly all at a very reasonable price! Came here a couple times including breakfast, which was massive and cheap. Absolutely recommend for anyone trying to get away from the high costs of food in the UK.

It's a Wetherspoon pub, so as expected, there is inexpensive food and drink. Lively atmosphere, very busy pub. There are no surprises for anyone ever visiting a Wetherspoons pub - packed tables, busy staff, a few that are over indulging.

Service was quick, food was OK. The furniture is dated, and the seating area wasn’t spotless (which tends to be the case in pubs, sadly). The cheap prices made up for the interior though. Great value for money. This is definitely one of the better Wetherspoons in Edinburgh.

My friend originally wanted to go to the Chinese buffet next door at COSMO but they were too busy and the queue was long. We needed to grab something to eat as we were going to the Tattoo so we didn't have time to wait around. Outside was very busy with people having a drink and we were going to go inside to Nando's. However once inside the shopping centre, we could see The Playfair had more space/seats inside. We found a seat easily and ordered quickly. Although super busy, it was easy to order and food was delivered quickly. Although I have been to different Spoons branches many times back home in London, I had never had the curry before so I was a bit apprehensive what to expect. I needn't worry. The food was tasty and filling. I thought the portion was a little on the small side but the Naan Bread and Poppadoms fill you up. Good prices and value for money and I got my Alcohol free Kopperberg fix so I was happy. If you aren't fussy and don't mind simply, tasty food then Whetherspoons is your go to place. Toilets are clean but the sink basins are a bit funnily placed low and the taps are put in at an odd angle. Aside from this, good place to eat.
