It was my girlfriend's birthday today, so our family all celebrated together with a meal on a terrace table of the Cold Town House. It was such a beautiful view of Edinburgh around us, plus energetic people and the service from the staff was phenomenal! One of the managers called Ben helped me put into place my plan for proposing to my now fiancé. I couldn't have asked for a more perfect setting for proposing and it's something we'll remember forever ❤️ thank you guys!!!

Came hear after the rugby with my parents. The staff were very helpful and accommodating. I had booked a table at the bar, but the staff managed to move us to the restaurant area. As always food was great, 3 roast beef dinners was enjoyed by all. Will definitely be back. Thank you all for your assistance this evening.
