For cheap and tasty burgers-you cannot go wrong at Candy. Their 5 quid menu is such good value, and their current menu leaves you in one of those situations where you don't know what to get. Lived on the edge today and got the PBB- a burger with bacon aaaaaaand wait for it....PEANUT BUTTER. Elvis eat yer heart out. Was really tasty-if anything, could have done with more peanut butter. Cocktails were fab too, only thing that lets Candy down is the staff, it's never that busy when I go yet you seem to have to go out of your way to gets drinks every time. Defo a hot pick for somewhere to eat when Christmas Shopping.
I've only been to Candy on two occasions as it's more one of the "hidden gems" of Edinburgh's New Town and on both occasions I've thoroughly enjoyed it, but felt a little let down by the staff and bouncers.
As I've been there on a Friday night for both food and cocktails, it has inevitably been very busy so I just got the impression from the staff they buckled under the stress and pressure so came across a lot ruder than what they may be.
The food however at Candy is amazing, I've opted for the fahijtas and "Basic Beach" cocktail, which I thoroughly enjoyed and it did take a while to recieve, which was worth it as every second making it you could tell a lot of effort was put into it!
Had the mozzarella dippers, chips and hot dog when I ate here and found the food and drinks nice and reasonably priced. However service was slow and after we finished our food and ordered more cocktails it took a long time for these to arrive
