The Turnhouse

Il faut mettre dans le contexte aéroport évidemment, mais j’ai plutôt apprécié ce pub :
— la déco est chouette, pour se mettre directement dans l’ambiance écossaise en arrivant ou pour une dernière fois en repartant
— le service est adorable, et pour le coup, l’accent le plus écossais que j’ai eu l’occasion «d’affronter» de mon séjour ! Et il est rapide, ce qui est primordial dans un aéroport.
— bon choix de bières à des prix légèrement (mais franchement pas beaucoup) supérieurs au reste du pays
— chouette choix de nourriture, servi rapidement (10min pour le fish&chips par exemple) et plutôt bon en prime ! Les prix sont les mêmes que dans le reste du pays, pour né rien gâcher.
Le scottish breakfast était chouette et le fish&chips réellement bon !
— des places assises ou en chaises hautes, mais toutes confortables.
Vu que j’ai moins aimé les offres alentours (en termes d’assises, d’offres culinaires et de tarifs), je recommande chaudement cette adresse-​là, juste en haut des escalators, devant les portiques pour le check des bagages cabines des départs ! Pratique !
I really liked this place over the others for many reasons :
— nice place, juste like a real pub, for your first or last «pub-​style» of your trip.
— really really nice waiters, trying hard to understand you and make you understand them, and quick to serve which is a must at an airport.
— nice draft beers, with price just a little over average in the country.
— really nice food: especially scottish breakfast which was quite nice under these circomstances (fast and an airport kitchen !), and the fish&chips, with really nice fish and a good tartare sauce, served in only 10 minutes !
— nice situation: just in front of the cabin luggages check-​in, for the departures !
The other ones around (where my friend went first on our arrival, and when we get a quick coffee on our departure) didn’t appeal me much: not nice chairs/​tables to seat, prices overrated, really little choice of salted meals (bad sandwiches or old salads).
That is why I really recommand to choose these place if you have to wait at the Edinburgh airport !

Yes, a Wetherspoon… BUT it’s an Airport so you don’t have much of a choice :)
There is also another Wetherspoon airside if you want to have a tipple post-​security.
Limited menu compared to other Wetherspoons in Edinburgh but being an airport location I’m sure they have limited facilities.
Have only drunk whisky here so can’t comment on food but looking at other diners’ meals seems like it’s usual Wetherspoon fare.
Staff stay out of your way and generally keep the place nice and clean. Which is more than I can say about The Standing Order sometimes… :P
