Coffee/lunch Edinburgh, 1st March.

Aizle?

Jane10, I think that's the best idea - having a bar meal at the Old Waverley. Baubles had a look at the bar menu and says they do things like baked potatoes, sandwiches, etc - would that would be OK for us?
weenanni59, it would be lovely to have you join us. ?
That makes 8 of us now.
I'll give it another day, then book us a table. I'm sure we can add a few more if anyone else would like to come.

forrage and chatter?

A bar lunch suits me. Thanks, ?Marelli

I should get a life, I know, but I really enjoy watching these meets being arranged.
Lickety spit! Its all done.

The Old Waverley, (opposite the station steps) where we are thinking of going on 1st March, has given us a good meal whenever we have been there. www.oldwaverley.co.uk/cranstons-restaurant.html They are reviewed on Tripadvisor www.tripadvisor.co.uk/Hotel_Review-g186525-d191450-Reviews-The_Old_Waverley_Hotel-Edinburgh_Scotland.html
Others may have other suggestions.

A bar lunch suits me too, Marelli.

OH and I are spending a few days in Berwick at the end of February and due to go home on the 1st March so I'll see if I can work out a way to come and join you at Cranstons. Please can you pencil me in and I'll confirm in a day or two.

It would be lovely to see you, OldGoat.?

They are going to have to extend the bar! Count me in girls, a bar lunch will be fine by me, a blether and good company!

Sorry Forrage and Chatter was for MarionH, but expect you all realised that anyway ! .

This is going to be brilliant!

Jangran missing?

And Jangran99!

MarionHalcombe there is always Hendersons in Hanover street. It's not posh but relaxed and the food is lovely and all vegetarian. There is wine, waiter service and often live music in the evenings.

I meant Aizle for*MarionHalcombe*.
Given those numbers I suspect that a bar lunch might be pushing it for the hotel. They're very helpful but I bet they'd find it easier to serve us in the dining room.

I did like the bar menu. Do you think they would serve bar lunches, but give us the use of the dining room?

Worth asking.

This has certainly grown arms and legs Marelli!

I'll phone them this morning and what they can do for us.

Have just phoned them. They don't take bookings for bar meals, unfortunately, so it would be down to us taking a chance on finding a space for us all. Doubt if that would work out.
Will I book us a table in the restaurant - what do you all think?

I’m soooo jealous! B..... shoulder!! Have a pudding for me ?

Hope you are feeling a bit better KateK

Good idea Marelli and thanks for organising!

Yes Marelli just do it! The lunch menu is always nice and not expensive.
