    As a regular visitor to Hard Rock Cafes wherever we visit we know what to expect, and we have visited Edinburgh several times. As always this recent visit did not disappoint with the usual excellent service and superb food. Have to mention the Haggis Spring Rolls which were absolutely delicious!

    Food wasn't great. Burgers thin/small. Fajitas had little meat with them. Service was pretty poor/inattentive. Had to ask for dessert menu that never came. Server eventually came back to ask what desserts we wanted! Asked for the bill instead.

    Not having been to Hard Rock for a little while, we ordered old favourites but were very disappointed in the reduced portion sizes, the food not looking at all like the pictures on the menu and no longer coming with the beans. Having said that, the service was exceptional.

    We had a fab early evening meal with 2 kids. Kids meals were a great size and delicious, my son had a Pizza Chicken burger and was in heaven! The spicy shrimp were divine and the ribs were delicious. We also had the huge brownie dessert (which we didn’t need) but was so much fun to eat together as a family. For 2 guitars man family members this was the perfect spot. We may even go back. It’s not cheap but it’s excellent value for what you get. Fully bellies and happy family all round. Great friendly staff too, couldn’t do enough for you. X
