The Waterside Bistro

Delicious food and amazing service from the staff Always so welcoming and friendly

Food and service were both 5 star. We were treated like princesses…. I left comments when making the booking regarding both diners having hearing aids.. I do this every time we book somewhere and it is usually completely overlooked.. this was not the case at the waterside bistro, they had a lovely quiet table for us and acknowledged the comments I left about our heating when we arrived, our table also over looked the view Thank you so much

Lovely food, lovely service and would recommend to friends to go

Had the Sunday roast. It was decent. Staff were great.

Amazing time at the Waterside. The service was great and food was excellent. Highly recommend

Very helpful and polite staff. Food was amazing. Great locations and lovely views

Food great, staff helpful and friendly. Went for dad's birthday

Mark Finlay did a wonderful job in welcoming us, answering our questions and serving us. Another great meal at the Bistro.

Excellent food. Fabulous service. Lovely experience. Thanks very much 🙏

Our lunch today was delightful. The staff were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us. The food was delicious and the environment cosy and warm. Even the toilets were 10/10. Well done Team!!

Lovely food, service was very good and overall experience for Mothers Day was great

It was lovely and the staff were efficient and professional

Main courses were excellent as was the service and atmosphere. The only negative was that the sticky toffee pudding would have been much better warm.

Lovely welcome when we arrived and staff first class. Ordered the Sunday roast beef which was delicious and piping hot. Highly recommend this to anyone

Great food. Great service. All 4 of us thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Will definitely be back. Just wish this place was closer to our home.

My friends & I have been visiting regularly for the past year or so and are never disappointed. Lovely menus, lovely food.

The food was good but the kitchen seemed really stretched so there was a long time to wait for lunch. The great reputation of the Waterside will be dented if this becomes the norm. We’ll give it another try to check.

Great food and an amazing server that served us with a smile

Very jolly welcome. Cannot choose between which was the best main dish - chicken with chorizo and apricots wonderful tastes and textures, rib eye cooked perfectly, pork there was no offer to taste and the plates were clean, braised beef and the roast beef were both fantastic. Sticky toffee pudding was the favourite for dessert! The service was polite and friendly. The only downside is with the hard floor, walls and chairs/tables it did get noisy as it got busier. We will be back.

Lovely meal in a great location. Service was also very good

Lovely visit with helpful staff. An enjoyable and friendly experience.

The food was delicious, service exceptional we had a great time.

We had a lovely time at the Waterside Bistro with my aunt who was celebrating ger 88 birthday.The food was good with crispy batter o n the haddock and the beef short rib flavoursome.The staff were attentive and helpful.Our dog was welcomed with a bowl of fresh water.

Warm welcome, Very polite and friendly staff from start to finish

6 people had a good experience in terms of excellent ambience, service, food and drinks

Lovely meal, great atmosphere & fantastic staff as always! 😃

Could not speak more highly of the staff and of our overall experience. The staff were very attentitive and went out their way to make this such a special occasion for my father who was celebrating his 86th birthday with his sister (91) and niece all of whom have mobility issues. We didn't have much time so only had mains but what we did have was incredibly tasty and super fresh. The staff all came out and sang happy birthday to my dad with a cake topped with a candle (unknown to me this was going to happen). It was very emotional for my dad who was delighted. He had left Haddington 60years ago and this visit was part of a trip down memory lane - what a lovely day full of more memories! Thank you so much to all at Waterside Bistro and would definitely visit if back in neighbourhood.
