A fun relaxed atmosphere with friendly service. The pina colada, strawberry daiquiri and espresso martini were really good! Huge sized, flavorful drinks- impressive! JJ tater tots were spicy, jalapeños and melted cheese...i barely shared it with anyone because i enjoyed them that much. The pork spare ribs were massive, it filled the entire plate and then some. They were super tender and fall off the bone. The sauce was tasty, not overbearing. Lastly, the cajun chicken tacos & beef chilli tacos were satisfying. 3 tacos in each order plus fries and another side. The tacos were generously filled. This small place gets super busy real quick so get there earlier in the day or late at night.
We decided on this as it was purely food based , as opposed to the Burger place across from it which appeared more bar-like. Food was authentic and full of flavour rather than the mass produced, bland chains.
This place is incredible. Beyond amazing food and drinks.
Came across it randomly online and knew we had to try.
The tacos are just fantastic so flavourful I was wanting more! The pork ribs just fell apart and tasted sensational
Would 100% go back and recommend to anyone
It’s such a wee chill place with banging food
Drinks are tasty too
The servers were so nice also and very attentive. Checking back on us making sure we had everything we needed
This place has the best tacos!!! The best burgers. Wow. We’re from NC USA and they have better pulled pork, bbq chicken and Buffalo chicken than we have. Shakes are great. Garlic cheese fries. You name it. Plus GF options. We stumbled upon this hidden downstairs gem. We’ve been twice already. Probably go back a 3rd time. Plus the staff has been awesome and welcoming. It gets busy so reservations is a good idea.
Had a lovely dinner with my 2 friends. Can't complain much besides 2 minor details. The brisket, unfortunately, was a bit too dry. And they could've put the volume of the music a bit louder. Besides that, the place was top notch.
Warm friendly atmosphere with great staff. Excellent food and drink choices, if you're after great food, you won't go far wrong here.
Been three times in the last 4-5 months, each time the food has been spot on. Food comes quickly and on the table is a variety of well stocked sauces.
The most recent visit and it looks like the menu has changed to be a lot easier for coeliacs to see what they can have (probably 75% of the menu!).
We had nachos which are banging, a burger with a gluten free bun and the brisket.
The only negative is that on all three occasions the brisket has been significantly different in texture but still delicious.
We stayed in Edinburgh for 3 nights and were so impressed with Bubba Q that we ate there for two of them. It is a fantastic hidden gem with fantastic food, great friendly service, and atmosphere. I would highly recommend a visit.
Basement setting with amazing flavours, huge portions and charismatic staff. A must if you’re hungry on the royal mile!
Was in before tea time so was quiet, the music kept the atmosphere decent, service was prompt friendly, food was great, decent sized portion was nice chilled experience would recommend. Only thing for me coleslaw was too shredded but that's personal preference.
Great burger, really nice place.
Good atmosphere, great soundtrack.
Friendly staff, a wee door along the high street that if you're not paying attention you will miss and that's a shame. Definitely will get back for other options as the ribs.
Death by bacon indeed made my heart stop for a while,lol. In love with it
My boyfriend and I went last night for the first time after seeing the place on TikTok. Both him and I really enjoyed our experience and the food. Will definitely be returning
