Hectors - Edinburgh, City of

This restaurant has really declined in terms of cleanliness and appearance. The paint is peeling off the toilet doors, the furniture looks dirty, and the tables appear to not have been cleaned. The flat white we ordered was served ice cold, but was replaced when we pointed it out. However, they were very stingy with the sugar. We are hesitant to return until they make upgrades to the restaurant.

Go here quite often for a drink but went for food this time ,the nachos . It arrived and it was cold with squeezy cheese sauce . Tasteless aka yuc. They did replace it with real cheese on a complaint .They did ,point out it did say Cheese sauce on the menu(my bad) but when the next attempt came back it had virtually no real cheese and was stuck together like superglue . The brisket addition was good however but not the nachos . But nice bar for a drink . I won’t be back for food . Service is ace , just not the food I had was really poor .

Excellent food, excellent service. Highly recommend. The vegan options were also delicious. Will come back when we are in Scotland!

Twelve friends went through from the Glasgow area for some lunch and drinks last Friday. We had a pre-booked table and most of us had pre-ordered our food. The visit was fantastic. Our servers (mostly Lucy/Leslie? were extremely friendly and efficient. We had two of our group who hadn't pre ordered, but this was no problem at all for the staff. Their order was taken and it came along with our dishes. The menu was varied and this led to our only issue of the day, the choices were difficult to make!!! As a group we covered most of the menu and no one was disappointed. The service was flawless and the drinks kept coming. We would thoroughly recommend Hector's for a group lunch. A great experience had by all!!!

Amazing. We visited this restaurant on our first night and were not let down. The food was outstanding and the staff were friendly and quick. Despite the crowds, we were able to easily get a table because we dined early. It truly lives up to the Stockbridge information site's description as a combination of a city pub and a village local. We felt very welcomed. My friend ordered haggis, neeps, and tatties, while I opted for the crofter's pie. Both dishes were delicious. If you are heading into Edinburgh, there is a bus stop conveniently located right outside the restaurant.
