8 years in the making and part of Edinburgh's New Waverley development within the old town, this is our newest creation. Hidden just behind the Royal Mile and only 5 minutes walk from Waverley train station, Holyrood Palace and the Scottish Parliament building.

    Great food with plenty of choice of dishes some which were not the usual run of the mill brunch ones. Very helpful staff who were welcoming but not overbearing. Good space between tables and we did not feel harried to finish. A good start to a day trip to Edinburgh.

    The mushroom soup and special scone (ginger and orange) were delicious, the scone was v big too. The bread with the soup was lovely and the smoothie was also nice. The service was great.

    Loudons is a great place for a very tasty brunch. This time we enjoyed the veggie and meat power bowls, delicious! Followed by a flat white, a lovely rich coffee. It can be busy, so would advise booking your table.

    I love this restaurant. It has a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff. It feels bright, spacious and welcoming when you go in. The food is excellent. Today I had the Hoots Mon Benny, which was absolutely delicious. The best Eggs Benedict I've ever had. Prices are very reasonable. There was a good choice of gluten free options for my husband too. The only thing I would mention as a slight minus is that the restaurant has a "dog friendly" policy, which is becoming increasingly common in all sorts of places now. This doesn't take account of people with a fear of dogs, and those who simply think dogs don't belong in food establishments.
    Loudons New WaverleyResponded on 5 January 2025
    Hi Jo, Thanks for taking the time to review us. We agree the hoots mon is really tasty. We do enjoy welcoming dogs in but as we have a large space, please do advise the team if you would like to be sat in a different area from dogs and we would be happy to arrange this. Thanks again, Loudons Team

    Spacious, bright restaurant, good food options, if a little pricey but that seems to be everywhere now, one criticism, if you are paying £14 for a breakfast it should really include a bit of toast, had to pay £2.50 extra for a slice of toast, not great!

    Excellent food and service and nicely set off the main congested part of the royal mile. We are visiting for only a week but we had such a great breakfast there we are going again.

    Nice enough place, but lack of sound absorbent materials in space means very noisy interior - difficult to hear what each other was saying.
    Loudons New WaverleyResponded on 29 December 2024
    Hi Linda, We are glad you enjoyed your visit. Unfortunately, we do get rather busy so can get a bit loud, just ask the team and we will aim to put you on the quietest table available. Thanks again, Loudons Team
