Miglior hamburger di sempre - Edit
Hamburger spaziali, giganti e buonissimi.
Read moreIn Italia vegano è sempre collegato a sano, è bello invece potersi sfondare con un paninazzo ignorante senza uccidere nessuno!
Se non ci fosse stato scritto 100%vegan non ci avrei creduto.
Anche le dirty fries spettacolari. Pe tessere Edimburgo prezzi buono e porzioni abbondantissime.
Pros: Gli hamburger, Il posto

delicious burgers and fast food - Edit
We had two amazing burgers, milkshakes, and the fried cheesecake, and everything was delicious. The staff was friendly, and there were board games you could grab and play for free. It was a bit loud, the Meadows Tap is actually a bar, but we didn't mind. Prices are a bit high, but the quality of the food was good. Great fast food in Edinburgh!

This isn't America. - Edit
Staff trying to trick us into paying a mandatory tip gets this place as few stars as possible. This isn't America. In this country, If you do your service job exceedingly well, your reward is a paycheck. Tips are not to be expected. That is not a mandatory part of our culture. This, it cannot be stated clearly enough, was the fault of the bar staff, who was blunt and intense. The same bar staff who couldn't be bothered to serve us our food, so the kitchen staff had to bring it to us. There's no excuse for this kind of behaviour as the place was far from busy.
Read moreKitchen staff seemed lovely though and the food was great, if a bit pricy.
Pros: Food tasted great, excellent textures
Cons: Expensive, Rude bar staff

Mixed - Edit
Decent food. But a weird experience that felt unpleasant - over basically nothing! Ordered food for 4, including slaw. When the food was brought to the table there was no slaw. I mentioned this, and was told with what seemed to me an accusatory tone, ‘you didn’t pay for it’. Eventually the waiter said that I had ordered it but it had been missed off the total and he thought someone had checked it. Ok, all fine, but there was no apology and this odd undertone that I had done something wrong. In addition, they brought and charged for an extra portion of chips I didn’t order, and the default tip added to the bill at the bar was 15% - a bit steep given the issues that would follow. None of the mistakes were major, but the weird defensive attitude was unpleasant and embarrassing so won’t be back.

The best burgers, loaded fries, salads, desserts - Edit
Beautiful vegan dirty burgers and fries. The lasagne burger and bites were so tasty and the Parm geddon chick*n burger (with mac cheese, Parma and pizza sauce) amazing. The Bruce burger is fantastic. The kebab fries are so tasty as are the mac cheese and lasagna loaded fries.
Read moreThe salads with chick*n are the healthy options but are soooo good too. You won't find a better place for vegan fast food.
Gluten free options available and prepared safely.

Best junk food EVER - Edit
When you want utterly ridiculous junk food, this has got to be the best of the BEST.
Read moreWe had:
The July special burger - the chick'n saboteur. Bloody outstanding and was our favourite of everything we tried - defo recommend!
The Bruce - another excellent burger, the haggis and hash browns make an awesome addition
Lasagne baws - a very distinct, strong lasagne taste, really brilliant. EXTREMELY filling haha, so beware if you want to try lots of other stuff
Macaro-nae cheese topped with buffalo chick'n - creamy and spicy, yum
Got both our burgers with fries which was unnecessary 😂
Deep fried cheesecake was SPECTACULAR, omg. I'd originally wanted the deep fried mars bar but it was out of stock and I'm glad because I've never had a dessert like the deep fried cheesecake and it was just brilliant. I was in literal pain from eating so much but managed the dessert because it was that good haha.
Dirty, dirty food, but if you want that then you couldn't do it better! 🤣
Service was friendly and fun and they welcomed our lovely dog with water and pats 🥰 comfortable and lovely decor, nice ambient lighting and music not too loud etc 👌

Amazing food and overall cool place. Had renamed itself to Meadows Tap so a bit hard to find, but was located on the same address. Unfortunately, I couldn't try the fried mars bar because the kitchen was overworked and stopped serving food at one point.

Vegan delivery - Edit
Ordered food for delivery from here to our hotel room. We got a Rabbit the Bruce burger which came with a patty with hash browns & haggis (messy but tasty) & got some buffalo chicken fries (loaded, good flavours). Would like to check out their actual venue next time

Groovy - Edit
If you’re in the mood for Mac and cheese, fries, or burgers, this is the spot. Very hip. Good music but good volume too (not loud). Staff very friendly and laid back. Good vibes. Mac and cheese was very good and they were able to put chicken on it without the buffalo sauce. Would have tried the fries too but wasn’t hungry enough. Very much wanted to try the fried Mac and cheese balls but couldn’t justify it with already getting the Mac and cheese 😭. Ordered the fried cheesecake too. They are out of ice cream so they put whipped cream on it😄they have board games and card games to play while you wait for your food. Cheesecake would have been much better if it was not fried. But if you like fried ice cream you’ll like it.

Fast food - Edit
I decided to change things up and veer off the usual pre-gig food spots, landing at this cozy bar just off the Meadows. It’s a great place where you could easily stop by for a couple of pints any time.
Read moreFor food, I went with the mac and cheese with bacon bits and the loaded katsu fries, thanks to an enthusiastic upsell from the bar staff. In hindsight, it was probably more food than I needed!
The katsu fries were solid—well presented and tasty—but they didn’t quite hit the “dirty fries” mark for me. A bit more curry sauce would have done the trick. As for the mac and cheese, it was decent overall, with good flavor, but it lacked the creamy richness I was hoping for; at times, it felt more like plain macaroni.
All in all, it’s a great option if you’re into junk food. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area and craving something indulgent.

Amazing wee place! - Edit
Cosy wee pub and excellent food - Macaroni cheese was to die for and the kebab fries were amazing, not something I've seen in a lot of places. Partner had the rabbit burger which he said was brilliant - will 100% be back!!

Vegan milkshakes and cocktails Staff are also really friendly. If your after healthy wholefoods this isn't your place but definitely not to be missed if you want a junk food hit.

Great vegan junk food - Edit
Junk food isn’t always my go to, but sometimes you just want burgers and fries! Rabbit Food at the Tap definitely delivers. Great options, great flavours and good value. So, if you want a dirty burger or fries then give it a shot.

BEST BURGER IN TOWN - Edit
Honestly, I love a wee junk food treat, and no one does it better than the Rabbit Food Munch crew at Meadows Tap.
Read moreTheir burger patties are packed with flavour. I don't know how they do it. I love the Rabbit The Bruce burger which is loaded with a patty, hash brown, haggis, caramelised onions and their sauce.
I am going to be adventurous and try a different one next time.
Their fried balls (baws) are so good. It's deep fried naughtiness at its best.
Filthy dirty goodness. Yum.
Pros: This is a fun menu with cool names for food, It's so filling. , I can't tell you how good these burgers are.

JUICY VEGAN BURGERS - Edit
Best vegan burger I’ve had, even the cheese tastes good, I’ve had the baby got Mac loads in my student accommodation but I went to try at the bar and tried their new special F#ck Mondays and was fab and so filling. Even though it’s vegan it gives juicy meaty flavour kind off. I would highly recommend to anyone!!

Delicious food! Lovely pub - Edit
We really enjoyed our evening here! The pub is really lovely, cosy atmosphere. We had The Rabbit and the Rabbit the Bruce burger with chips and then shared some Mac n Cheeze balls, everything was so good! Really tasty! And then sticky toffee pudding for dessert again was very lovely! They also do boozy milkshakes which I will have to go back to try
