    Good place for a drink with a view. We only had drinks, so the mark for food is just based on what we saw in the menu which was just nibbly platter stuff.

    Lovely and surprisingly calm ambiance in the midst of the Royal Mile chaos. The food (particularly the Venison carpaccio) was delicious.

    A Toad-ally Scrumptious Experience! A Delightful Dining Experience at Badger & Co! The food at Badger & Co in Edinburgh was truly first class. I had the Spiced Pumpkin Soup with warm crusty bread, followed by the Chicken and Pancetta Pie with fresh vegetables and hickory-smoked mash. For dessert, I enjoyed poached pear with mulled wine syrup, chocolate oat crumble, elderflower sorbet, and fresh berries. Every single course was delicious and easily a stand out in their own right. The staff were lovely and friendly, and the relaxed ambience meant we never felt rushed. The decor is beautiful, like sitting in a manor home but without the pretension. A unique touch was the bill presented inside a copy of "The Wind in the Willows," complete with two bookmarks to keep as a memento. Overall, a truly enjoyable experience. We'll definitely be returning!

    We had an amazing time - have been more than once and the service and quality of food (steak!) was excellent and value for money. Our waiter Luca was fantastic, he really looked after us and made a fuss of my other half whose birthday it was. Thankyou so much Luca! We look forward to coming again.
