    Food was exceptional, between us we had humour, smoked salmon and both had venison for main.the presentation but more importantly quality, taste, flavour and texture was best we've tasted for many years

    Good food though not as extensive a menu as on website / OpenTable preview. Staff are very good. Feels like it doesn’t know if it’s a pub with good food or is trying to be a good restaurant which it could be given the standard of food. Toilets are a shocking disgrace. Overall could be a lot better

    Just had another tasty meal here. Delicious haunch of venison and smoked potatoes- mmm! My daughter really enjoyed the gin cured salmon and my friend the agnolotti- tasty, tasty! Oh, and my daughter's mocktail was gorgeous (the Zero White Grape Collins.) Also, love the atmosphere here, warm, friendly, relaxed. Give it a try!

    Went twice and it was outstanding in terms of food drink and service. A new rising champion in Edinburgh at a time a of some very mediocre new competition. Voyage of Buck is the real deal.
