I absolutely loved my experience at East Coast. My sister found them on instagram, and as we were staying at Portobello so it was only a short drive, and there is a free car park a few minutes walk away. We went for the afternoon sea which was delicious. The haddock was cooked perfectly. The cake at the end was delicious. The staff also were so very friendly. The decor was great and loved the lighting. Anyone visiting the Edinburgh area. I recommend a drive to Musselburgh to visit East Coast.

East Coast absolutely do deliver when it comes to belly busting takeaways and meals in the restaurant but they also cater for wee-er appetites too and I was delighted to see them introduce their Afternoon Sea (£17.50pp) recently which includes (not that this is wee in anyway!) wee battered haddock twice cooked chips homemade mushy peas house tartare sauce homemade pickled onions lemon wedge sourdough bread and butter pot of tea sweet treat of the day You can upgrade to a Royal Afternoon Sea with a glass of Prosecco for an additional £3.50pp. There are restrictions on this - Afternoon Sea is only available Friday to Sunday between 2:30pm and 4:30pm but you should definitely fit this into your weekend plans. It’s so bloody good! Firstly, plenty of sourdough bread and butter at the table. The bread is fresh, slightly chewy and so good with fish n chips. The fish is a perfect size, its fresh and coated in the most crunchy, non greasy batter. Breaking this piece of fish open will bring you immense happiness. The chips are big n fat n fluffy and so good for dunking into the mushy peas or for building that ultimate chip butty! The peas were so good, I asked for another small bowl! With a short break after demolishing your fish supper, the staff are kind enough to give you a wee break before bringing you tea and cake. The staff do ask you in what order/how you would like to have your Afternoon Tea. We chose to have the fish supper first, then tea and cake. You could of course have your tea with your fish supper followed by cake or have your tea and cake first. It’s totally up to you and the staff are so brilliant that they’ll accommodate your choice any which way. Cake was a vanilla sponge slice with cream and blueberries. It was light, slightly sweet and went down so well with a fantastic cup of tea! The Afternoon Sea gave me so much joy and we raised a wee cuppa in remembrance of my mum! This deal is great value for money and you’ll leave with a very full and happy belly. Seriously, get booking!
