Excellent lunch spot - Edit
Superb lunch spot whilst visiting Edinburgh. 5 min walk from Calton hill so perfect for a bite to eat after walking around there. Amazing food and great menu and variety. Only 1 small and old bathroom so be prepared to wait. It took 1 hour for us to eat since walking in, plus the soup never arrived before the burger but the lady was very apologetic and offered us dessert. Didn't get 5 stars because of the wait but definitely worth the visit. Indoor only has a few tables so you might need to wait to be seated. Patio has more tables but it's outside. Hard to find on the GPS it has stairs to go down from the actual road. Don't look up for it, look down towards the ground
Read morePros: 100 vegan, Excellent food, Great menu and variety
Cons: Slow service, Few tables inside, Only 1 old and small bathroom for guests

Meh Baked Goods - Edit
I stopped in just for dessert. Had their cheesecake and it was pretty bad. The place looked cute though and I’d give it a shot for a meal.

Great vibes - Edit
Pad Thai was really yummy!!! Staff were very friendly and helpful. The organic freshly cut chips were so tasty. However, the vegan CBLT sandwich was really disappointing:( the bread was dry, there was no flavour really. The smoked tempeh was not very good. Definitely would love to see a bit more creativity and flavour put into these sandwiches!!!

We had the Thai salad with tofu, which was deliciouc and perfect during the hot weather we had. For dessert we shared the new york cheescake, delicious although a bit heavy. The location is a bit hidden but cosy.

A bit disappointed - Edit
Ordered an energizer smoothie and the open BLT. The smoothie tasted great! But i feel the BLT lacked imagination or flavour. The bread was a bit dry with a lettuce leaf, tomato slices, tempeh and some cheese. There was a pot of mayo which helped but i felt for the proce there would be more flavour. It just wasnt easy to eat or palatable.

Not worth it - Edit
I went in for a Quarter Pounder, but it was completely tasteless. I even tried it separately, but no taste at all.

I find the place do be very expensive for what it offers.
I’m sorry to give a bad review, but my expectations were high and the experience was very disappointing.
Pros: Friendly staff, Nice atmosphere
Cons: Quarter Pounder tastes like nothing, Expensive

Wonderful vegan place in Edinburgh - Edit
I stayed a night in downtown Edinburgh and went to have dinner at the closest vegan place. That was Holy Cow. I ordered a soup of the day, which was made of carrot and potato. It was served with a generous amount of warm sourdough with vegan butter. The staff was very friendly, the atmosphere was cozy. Altogether a very pleasant experience.

Encore Performance - Edit
We have eaten both at the restaurant and had delivery. The 2 Muu burgers we have had SO FAR (oyster mushroom and quarter pounder) were phenomenal. We splurged on our first visit and even had some chocolate blueberry cake which was so moist and flavorful. Can’t wait to try their whole menu.

Amazing - Edit
In my opinion, Holy cows serves the best burgers in town! The ambiance of the place couldn't be better for a late night dinner with friends. It's one of my new favorite spots in Edinburgh.
