Mercat Bar And Kitchen - Edinburgh

Scott had a glowing personality and served the best French martini I’ve had in Scotland! Highly recommend visiting this bar while in Edinburgh!

Fab little bar and very welcoming . Nice lager on tap I attended as they have a magic club downstairs and it was fab

Had a fabby night out there with a group of colleagues who all agreed that the place was a true find. Food was excellent and the prices are fair. Can't fault the staff as they were polite and attentive. We will be visiting again soon.

Last week it was 5 stars this week it was 1. An average of 3. Asked for a big breakfast got what they wanted to give us and when I complained gave some extras but still not what was ordered. Challenged the server to be told I had what I asked for. This was not what I ordered. Poor customer service and unperturbed when I stated we would not be back. Word of mouth is a great advertisement or negative.

My wife and I had booked a Chinese meal on the 28th September and were looking for somewhere to have some drinks prior to the meal and my wife spotted the Mercat opposite the Chinese which was absolutely perfect for us. We ordered a Cider and a Peroni and the barmaid Stacey told us to find a table and she would bring the drinks over to us. Whilst enjoying our drinks we kept seeing lovely meals being taken to vsrious tables and they all looked exceptional, very well presented and you could clearly see that everyone was really enjoying them and the lovely background music being played. We both agreed that we would return on the followimg evening and try the food as it really looked too good to miss and we were certainly not disappointed. After a couple of drinks each we both decided to go for the fish and chips and we both agreed that it was the nicest fish and chips we had had for years, everything very fresh and so tasty. We enjoyed a lovely bottle of Sauvignon blanc with the meal and my wife chose the cheese platter with olives, girkin and biscuits and I chose the icecream for our sweets, absolutely perfect. Unfortunately the lovely Stacey was not working on the evening but we did have the lovely Scott, they are a super team, so efficient, friendly, courteous and obliging. Since returning home we have never stopped talking about this wonderful evening, we both loved Edinburgh and this restaurant really was the icing on the cake. We are already talking about returning to the City and returning to this beautiful restaurant, what a find! . Well done to you all and thankyou!
