The food is lovely. I was truly impressed by the high standard. Every course was perfect.
The service at the beginning,was a bit slow to start, but absolutely no complaints thereafter. Accurate, timely and pleasant. I would recommend this place to anyone. I hope to return, current plague permitting. Well done though,to everyone involved.

Had an excellent breakfast at The Rabble. Locally produced items, cooked to perfection. The portions are big and only one of our party managed to finish their meal completely. The staff are very courteous and helpful. And the Christmas decorations were stunning! Definitely a place to stop off for a meal or a drink whilst shopping

Just want to say how impressed and grateful I was with Rabble when as NHS staff, we had no option but to cancel our Christmas lunch due to the new Covid variant. The lady whom I spoke with (sorry I have forgotten your name) immediately offered empathy that it had to be cancelled and then offered a full refund of our deposit or the option to rebook. Your kindness is very much appreciated and we hope to be able to rebook soon. This must be an incredibly challenging time for you all too. Thank you and stay safe.

Great atmosphere, drink selection and staff are absolutely lovely. The fly in the ointment is the spoons level food (but with a much heftier price tag and spoons doesn't lie to you about what it is). Shame because you can tell the rest of the place is good quality but my goodness does the food let it down. Will stress that the staff are great though so do pop in for a drink.
Edited it this to 4 because the staff were brilliant about it and gave us a discount.

I have very, very mixed reviews about Rick's- so much so I wish I could write two reviews. For now we'll have to average them.
As a restaurant, the food is brilliant and well thought out. During our visits here we had the scallop appetizer, the sharing plate (ginormous!), and some mains that I actually forget, though they were tasty. We ordered room service so I can't speak to the quality of their restaurant service, but the attention we got was quite nice. The prices were definitely reasonable.
As a hotel they have a lot to improve. My husband said it best when he pointed out

Two friends and I had lunch here today, my second time visiting. They took advantage of the 2 mains for £10 deal while I had the leek and gruyere tartlet--yum!!! We ate outside in the intermittent sun, and my tartlet was gooey and hot and decadent, without being at all heavy. It came with a little pile of sticky onions which were extraordinary and full of flavour. Enjoyable place to have a casual lunch with good tasty food.

We had been wanting to pop in for a while, but just never seem to be in this end of town when we are looking for food or drinks. I had heard some really good things so when a voucher popped up I jumped at the opertunity to dine out here. On arrival you wander down some steps to the basement bar/reception area and the staff member that greeted us was friendly and welcomiong. The decor was contempory but... comfortable I guess, so the feeling of the place ends up being relaxed but trendy. Good start.
The staff through out the meal were friendly and proffessional even adjusting the sharing platter

Two mains for a tenner sounded pretty good - particularly when one of the menu options was an 8 ounce burger with a side of fries. For the non-bovine inclined there was a reasonable selection of alternatives. Sadly my partner was non-plussed about her focaccia and roasted vegetables - it looked a pretty half-hearted effort to me.
The burger was good, with just enough charred edges to let you forget about an unused udder dangling in a field somewhere.
A good selection of beers on draft, but be warned - they don't come cheap. A couple of pints of Blue Moon set me back over a tenner.

I know I gave Rick's 5 stars last time, I think I love it even more now. Like all the Montpeliers venues they have selected drinks on half price, which means you can enjoy the gorgeous surroundings without the expected price tag.
But the best thing about Rick's in comparison to all the other places in this chain is that the cocktails included in the Better By Half promo are amaaaaazing and not like cocktails you'd find in any other bar. Although the Vanilla Daisy came in a depressingly small glass, the combination of vanilla vodka, grenadine, fresh lime, egg whites and soda slid

I really have nothing to compare Rick's to, considering we were in Edinburgh for about 48 hours for a wedding and didn't really have the opportunity to explore the nightlife around the city. But that's not to say I didn't do my fair share of drinking thanks to Matty and friends behind the bar. They make some excellent cocktails, reasonably priced, and fabulous, friendly service.
The rooms are really comfortable and sleek, but beware - it's quite difficult to sleep on the weekend evenings as the bars let out around 3am and the noise carries - FAR. My suggestion: take Matty
