This was our first time here. Had a great experience overall. The atmosphere was beautiful and the food was delicious. We went for Sunday brunch at 12pm and everything was great but we were trying to catch up and once the live music started we couldn't really hear each other and had to shout over the music. I think live music is fun and a great addition but maybe not so loud on a Sunday afternoon.
Step into a realm of culinary delight at Eve, where the art of brunch is taken to an entirely new level.
Nestled within the elegant confines of the hotel, Eve Restaurant offers a brunch experience that will awaken your senses and leave you craving for more.
There are two entrances. One, through the hotel taking the elevator to the ground floor or from the Cowgate. Either way you are met with the perfect atmosphere in which to unwind and enjoy a feast of flavours.
The menu is a masterpiece, fusing traditional brunch classics with innovative and creative twists. Indulge in delectable dishes like avocado toast topped with poached eggs and a harissa hollandaise sauce, or their bao buns with plant based chicken and shitake, blackberry sriracha and vegan mayo.
Eve also has their own Brunch cocktails. We went for the Mimosa and a French Martini mocktail.
The Brunch Board - £18.50 is a delightful feast that will satisfy all your cravings. This culinary masterpiece is a sight to behold, featuring an array of delectable treats artfully arranged on a rustic wooden board. From freshly made waffles, french toast and morning cake all bursting with buttery goodness to fluffy pancakes with luscious butterscotch sauce, berry compote and chantilly cream, every bite is a taste of pure bliss.
Eve’s Brunch Burger - £12.50. This towering creation begins with a perfectly cooked pork sausage patty and topped with streaky bacon and a free range egg. But the real star of the show is the addition of the tomato relish that really brings this brunch burger to life on your first bite. Unfortunately my egg was overcooked so no Instagram worth runny yolk lushishness!
Posh Ham and Cheese Croque Madame - £12.50, is definitely a must order item. This classic French delight is an artful combination of crusty bread, luscious serrano ham, brie, truffle sauce and fried egg, creating a symphony of flavours that dance on your palate. I just wish it came with two fried eggs as that’s what makes it a Croque ‘Madame’!
The attentive staff ensures that every detail is taken care of, making your brunch experience truly unforgettable. Whether you're looking for a mimosa brunch with friends or a leisurely family gathering, Eve Restaurant offers this.
With a prime location just steps away from the famous Royal Mile and a plethora of cultural attractions, Eve at the Virgin Hotel Edinburgh is the perfect choice for locals and travellers seeking a lavish and memorable experience in Scotland's enchanting capital.
Had an amazing day/night last Saturday at this event. The food and entertainment were superb. Our server Colin went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience, he really gave us rhe 5 star treatment. Can’t wait to come back!
The Soul Foundation - Saturdays 9 piece solid band. The best! Can highly recommend coming just to see them. Transformative performance!
Food is expensive but tasty. Service was excellent. Our waiter with the silk shirt and pearl necklace - you were simply the best!
Everyone else was an influencer
Food, staff, vibes are amazing. Homemade pasta, delicious and the braised pork cheek just wow.
What a hidden gem! Staff are extremely friendly with great service. We started off with some cocktails, spicy margarita was superb 👌🏼 Food was well presented and tasted delicious. Couldn’t fault a thing. The decor inside is very stylish. Would recommend booking a table it got very busy!
Amazing environment. Loved the brunch and especially the French toast. Jasmine and Carlos were very friendly and polite. Kids loved the place as well. We will definitely visit again when in Edinburgh.
A very nice new restaurant within Virgin Hotel Edinburgh. The cheese burger was decent and the quinoa salad was alright. The service was really good and the staff were so friendly. I didn't like the atmosphere so much just because it was so noisy as the music was extremely loud, otherwise it's good.
Stopped by for a cocktail week beverage and the staff could not have been more pleasant! #Holly. Excellent cocktails, I had two! Nice band was playing. We’ll definitely be back!
I had a beautiful lunch on Monday 14/8/23. All the staff members were very kind with a big smile,the food was amazing and also i have visited the toilets which i can say its was absolutely amazing clean toilets i have even seen on my travels. Well done guys
I had the best brunch everrrr here this morning. My best friend was visiting me in Edinburgh for the first time and I really wanted to wow her so I decided to take her here (despite never having been myself yet). What an amazing choice that was because we both agreed that it was the best meal that we had had in ages. She ordered the French of toast and I ordered the croque madame. That croque was PHENOMENAL! I will come back time and time again just for that. The drinks were also amazing. We ordered the Bloody Mary and espresso martinis. My friend always orders bloody Mary’s and she was very impressed that our waiter ginnis asked what spice level she wanted (she said whenever a waiter asks that, she knows it is going to be great).
The service was also impeccable. Our waiter Ginnis was so kind and attentive. He really made the experience even better for us!
We will definitely be back and highly recommend it!
A brilliant bar/restaurant with delicious food and excellent food! Our server, Andrew, was fabulous, courteous and entertaining. He made us laugh with a brilliant conversation and his wit. Andrew deserves a special thanks for making our lunch experience so special on our last day in Edinburgh back in May 2023.
First time visiting and won't be the last.
Beautiful bar, stunning decor and brilliant staff
