Brisket was outstanding, the pulled pork was excellent and the portions were generous. Beware the dynamite fries, they will blow you up! In a good way!
First visit tried the death by bacon burger and the plater from the bbq which was nice but the pulled pork and brisket was still quite fatty could have been cooked at a lower heat lower heat longer to render the day still nice though
Was excellent all round but we were sat right under a speaker which made it hard to have a conversation with the table. Great food & good portions.
Doesn't look like much from the outside, but this is a wee gem on the royal mile! very tasty, great lunch menu/deal. highly recommend and will be back
Great food huge portions highly recommend it great service very tasty food and very reasonable prices good atomsphere good music although a little loud at times but in the whole throughly enjoyed my visit will back
The food was amazing and the service was equally top notch if you love barbecue then this is definitely a must. I have been singing this places praises
Great place, great menu. You won't leave feeling less than full. Feels like being back in the US at a typical diner. Great music. Enjoy.
great food at a good price. menu has alot to offer. the platter is a good choice for 2 or 3 people. mac cheese isnt so good
The food was great and portions very generous. One main meal will be enough for most people. Second time we've been here and will definitely be going back. Make sure you book to avoid disappointment as it can fill up quite quickly.
Food was brilliant, been wanting to go for a while and it was the worth the wait. Will be going back. Service very good as well.
Without saying much, in a nutshell, it was braw. Food was excellent aswell as atmosphere and the waitresses were quite tidy. Which is a bonus. Tiny toilets though, kind of like being in a hobbit house.
Fantastic food wide choice of dishes to suit every meat lover. Great service, excellent value for money. I would highly recommend this to any one. Great birthday treat.
Overall Bubba Q is great Value apart from the drinks which are a little pricey. Service was friendly and quick. The food is absolutely incredible. For an authentic BBQ experience it is well worth it. Will be visiting again and would highly recommend.
There is lots of barbecue choice, from sandwiches to burgers and mains such as ribs. The portions are generous and the service was really quick.
Great service and really yummy food. Love smokehouse type food and we thought that we'd try this restaurant on our recent trip to Edinburgh, was quite a small restaurant, but was busy and worth the visit.
Great family meal out (2 adults and 2 kids at 6 & 8 yes) with excellent service and at a good price. Foods was delicious
Second visit to Bubba Q and had a great meal again. Will definitely go back. Good price for good food in a very central location.
The Front of house and waitress staff were very friendly, amazing food for great value for money, will definitely recommend and will definitely go back! X
Where do i start with this little beauty. Great food and great value. Will definitely be back. A hidden gem along the royal mile. Thanks
the place has great atmosphere, good service, very good food. when you walk down stairs all you smell is bbq! tasty milkshakes too, but too full to try the puddings!
Nice new restaurant. Lots of food and was piping hot. Staff were very attentive and helpful. Ribs were especially tasty as were the pitt beans. Will return.
Brilliant meal, big portions, so appetiser and main is very filling! My favourite was the pulled pork nachos and death by chocolate milkshake! Would definitely go again!
Just right having been on a train all day to get to Edinburgh. Excellent choice and quality with good prices. Price of drinks also excellent for a city centre (£4 for 175ml wine). Service quick, efficient and pleasant.
Fantastic food. Very highly recommend. Portion sizes are very generous, I had the pulled pork with sweet potato fries and onion rings and had to share with others in my group. Also, the music was excellent! Lots of 90s rock. It was awesome.
Very nice food, quick service and didn't have to wait to long for my meal too. Staff were very helpful and I would definitely return to bubba Q again. 5/5 for me!
If you enjoy a good American BBQ, this is great. Reasonable prices for the touristy area of Edinburgh - it is centrally located which is good. Great service, imaginative menu.
I attended Bubba Q for the first time last night and can confirm that they provide great portions, great food, brilliant value for money. Only slight negative was that the staff could be a bit cheerier, however when you're stuffing your face you won't really notice them.
Enjoyed a lovely meal. Staff were fantastic (had a headache and staff member seemed to notice & dimmed the lights - slightly) small acts like this don't go unnoticed. Would recommend and return.
Great food, and excellent value for money as portion sizes are generous. Lovely friendly service, attentive without being overbearing. Looking forward to a return visit to explore more of the menu!
This piace is a must go to !! The food and service are absolutely amazing. I can't wait to return next time I'm in Edinburgh.
Lovely little place. 4 of us ate here when we were in Edinburgh for the Hogmanay. We had 2 Pitmaster Plates to share and all the meat and sides were superb. A great find on the Royal Mile. Would go again if I go to Edinburgh again for sure!
First experience at bubba Q very big portions of food... Food was lovely. I tried the brisket and my other tried the chicken. The brisket was different but worth a try especially if you like pork belly. Staff were nice and friendly.
Food was great and staff were so friendly and couldn't do enough to help , good music while we ate was also a good bonus
Staff were very nice. Food very nice! Portion sizes are big which is a big bonus :) Very nice small restauarant. Prices are cheap. Overall service 5/5*
Absolutely amazing! Service was fast and efficient. Will be back for sure. Great prices for the quantity and quality of food you receive. Full marks
Fantastic food and loads of it!! would recommend to friends and families. The inferno wings are only for the brave but they are delicious if you can handle them!
Very good BBQ. Reasonably priced for the town centre (drinks are a little pricey, but food about right). One of two or three excellent spots for this type of food in Edinburgh.
Really enjoyed our meal. The service was supper fast and the restaurant had a nice relaxed feel to it ! Our burgers were so tasty and amazing value 😊
Good quality authentic BBQ / Smoke house. All food I ate was good. This included brisket, dynamite fries, burnt end beans. Good sauces too. Services was good. This was an ItIsOn deal and was exceptional value for money for 2 diners.
Great food - massive portions! You have to come when really hungry otherwise you won't be able to finish your plate. Really pleased with food/drink but the customer service wasn't great.
Tasty food. Loved the donut burger and the strawberry shortcake milkshake. Cool decor and music. Friendly staff. A bit pricey but a good experience overall.
Being an American living in Scotland, I was looking forward to visiting. Myself and my boyfriend ordered the platter to share. Very impressive amount of meat, which was amazing, but was served lukewarm at best and it felt like it had been sitting out for awhile. It was also quite dry. The coleslaw was excellent though! And great value. Good concept, just needs to be fresher (and hotter)
The meal was very filling, meat was tasty, very different and would go back again. Thank you to ITISON for introducing this place to us!
Really tasty, tender beef brisket. Big portion sizes. In an easy to find, central location. Will definitely be back, and recommending to friends! Keep up the good work
The brisket was the moistest thing since_______ (insert word that adequately describes something incredibly moist). Also very fast service and reasonably priced. Would definitely go again
great good great service, I have been back three times now since this booking and I plan on coming back again soon with more friends.
It was the best burger I've had in a long time. We both enjoyed the burgers, fries and onion rings. Would recommend. We will return.
The food was lovely; not healthy at all (!) and absolutely no portion controls, but tasty if you fancy a treat. However the service was questionable. We got ignored whilst looking at the menu for around ten minutes, and none of the staff smiled at us or greeted us with any friendly chat. We might go back if we get a deal on the food but we won't be expecting friendly or fast service!
Nice starters, average taster main course. Meat almost but not quite dry & in need of flavouring. Friendly waiting staff although quite busy. Wouldn't go back
Highly recommended! Great service, food arrived quickly and was amazing! Great value for money. Can't wait to go back again! Definitely found the place to get a BBQ fix.
