We visited Platform 5 for watch one of the 6 Nations Rugby matches. The restaurant opens into the pub area and after a few flight of stairs, the causal dining area is available. Since the rugby match was going on, the place was packed! For drinks, they have the usual beers and spirits available and for food, I decided to try one of their ‘Curry Favourites’ – Chicken Tikka Masala which was served with basmati rice, naan and mango chutney. The dish was heavenly. l did not expect it to be so true to taste. Also, the flavors and level of spiciness was perfectly balanced.Platform 5 is located bang opposite the Haymarket Station making it an extremely convenient pub to visit. The service was average and the prices for food is good as they have decent offers for two.
It may be a great place to have a few drinks in the evening but the food and service are terrible. I wish I could say it was just one bad experience but unfortunately for me I had breakfast there 3 times and it went from bad to worse.
Located right opposite Haymarket station (and a mile west of princes street/city centre), so ideal for a pint or 2 after office and before your train/bus back home! I go there once every 2 months or so…The place is comfortable, spacious andbig screens (think 3) usually showing differentsports channels so ideal to catch premier league matches or 6 nations rugby right after office. But, as I said, ithas arelatively professional setting given lot of people straight from work talking work related stuff and music as wellas beeris rather bland!Certainly not the best option for weekend pub hopping – would stay at royal mile, Grassmarket orGeorge street for that!
Sad to report this isn’t the greatest of reviews for platform 5. I’ve been in before and honestly couldn’t fault the food or staff but my two friends and I went in this morning hoping to grab breakfast before they stopped serving. We arrived at 25 to 12 and were told by the staff that we could not order any food at all as the breakfast kitchen was closed and the lunch would not start till 12. Please don’t advertise lunch being served till 12 if you stop serving at half 11! And if that is the case don’t be rude about it!! Seriously guys, not cool. 3/5 taking into consideration past visits.
