Café St Honoré

I hadn't been to Cafe St Honore for over 2 years and after this visit I have no idea why I left it so long! The food, service, atmosphere and value were all outstanding! Highly recommend and will not be leaving it another 2 years until I return!

Excellent organic food in French bistro-style surroundings.

It was a beautiful meal, served by pleasant professional staff in a lovely atmosphere.

It was very quiet whilst I was there so the ambience was impossible to judge. However it is a reliable and comfortable restaurant.

One of Edinburgh's hidden gems. Consistently high quality food and pleasant atmosphere.

During our first lunch you unfortunately had a power cut. We were given the very best treatment possible under the circumstances so came back for an excellent Sunday lunch.

Full of ambience and charm. Traditional French food well cooked, presented and served.

Excellent food and we enjoyed the relaxed service. We were grateful that the staff were able to accommodate our request to move to a quieter table for dessert as the other diners in the back room were have a great time, but we were struggling to hear each other!

Absolutely fabulous meal, service and ambience!
Thank you!

Good food good service nice atmosphere
Will definitely be back

Set menu very limited, only 2 options per course. A la carte significantly more expensive. We went to have the set (£25 for 3 courses) it was not that tempting for us so we went for a la carte (£18 for just my starter!). Good wine list.

Fabulous. Book this restaurant - you won't regret it.

We had a really lovely evening at Cafe St Honore. The food was absolutely delicious, as were the drinks. The food isn't cheap but the quality was worth it. The waiting staff could not have been more helpful. I will definitely be returning.

Lovely little hidden gem in the heart of Edinburgh. Great food, friendly, helpful staff. Not a big selection for vegetarians but what they did have was delicious

As per previous visits St Honore delivers an excellent experience

Excellent vegetarian and fish options and a lovely atmosphere make this a must visit restaurant.

Great lunch venue with great ambience if you are able t book a seat upstairs

A nice mix between French food & scottish culture ! I highly recommend

Food and service were fantastic, staff both friendly and attentive. I have food allergies and these were dealt with so well, very helpful and without a fuss. Had a lovely evening with a relaxing and friendly bistro ambience.

A little bit of Paris in the heart of Edinburgh! We had a delightful family Sunday lunch and the service couldn't have been better.

Excellent as ever. One of my all time favourite restaurants and very good value for money.

Food was delicious. However, was quite disappointed that it didn't offer more French cuisine.

First time here for my birthday, but will come back! Everything was just perfect and not too expensive. We were 6 people and we were all pleased with food, drinks, service and ambiance. I normally take photos of my food, but had such a great time that I forgot !! Quite a small place, so booking is recommended.

Perfect food and venue. Pretty and decent sized portions of creative and local food. Lovely staff and value for money.

This was the first time for three of the party of four and they were very impressed with the quality of the food

Never disappoints. With many restaurants the first visit can be great and then it never quite matches up. Been going here for years and it's always good.

We met up with a friend who we haven’t seen in over 20 years and enjoyed great food accompanied by a fine bottle of wine and attentive and knowledgeable staff. Lovely music playing in the background made for the perfect place to eat, drink and natter for a couple of delightful hours. Thank you for great service, fab meal and perfect ambiance.

Excellent Express Lunch which was very good value. Food was lovely & service was attentive. Overall great ambience.

As always Cafe St H was wonderful I had not been for years but it was perfect from temperature to comfort and the food glorious as always

Staff impeccable as always

I will always go to this venue when I am in Edinburgh

Delighted to have found this restaurant that is tucked away in a quiet lane off George Street area. Food was delicious and presented in an attractive way. We will definitely return when next in Edinburgh.

Went here on a recommendation from a friend and it is amazing! We loved it so much, like stepping into Paris! Food was great, ambiance and noise level perfect. Knowledgeable server for next places to go in Edinburgh. Overall an excellent meal!!

One of our favourite restaurants in Edinburgh, never disappoints.

Lovely buzz in the restaurant Food was delicious.Wine was good if slightly expensive.overall a very enjoyable lunch

The location itself immediately feels like you've found a hidden treasure tucked away from the busier streets. The atmosphere is inviting and the staff are friendly without being overwhelmingly so.

We aren't big drinkers but there are multiple drinks options with a varied price list and the staff were happy to recommend a wine to my taste and didn't force the more expensive options.

The food, amongst everything else, has ensured we'll return again to try something else on the menu. We had three courses each, all of which were outstanding and served in a timely manner, allowing you to enjoy each course without being rushed. We also stayed for a little while after we had finished our meals which isn't something we often do but the whole experience was so pleasant that we didn't feel the urge to rush off.

This was our first time visiting Edinburgh and our date here was part of an overall perfect weekend that I'm happy to repeat.

Really pleased to have found this delight of a bistro. Excellent cooking, imaginative use of local produce, great ambience.

The Cafe St Honore is an Edinburgh institution - but it’s one institution I’d happily live in. Ian Rankin’s Inspector Rebus had his retirement dinner here; I’ve seen the late, great Iain Banks at a neighbouring table. It’s a bit like slipping out of the New Town, into St Germain, Paris. Dark wood, flattering mirrors, candlelight. Marvellous bread. And my Cullen skink was creamy, smoky, sophisticated: very French and very Scottish. Venison with red cabbage and mixed roots also a fine thing. Most food here is organic. Wine list reliable. Waiters will let you linger late while they clean up. Charming.

The food was excellent. Had the Pigeon tartar, it was one of the nicest things i've eaten. The staff were more than helpful and very pleasant.

Our first visit in quite a few years and well worth it!

Good cafe with amazing France cusine. Something "new" in Edinburgh. Thanks to all personal for great lunch. Best wishes.

Cozy, intimate, informal dining in a quiet spot ideal for dates.
