A group of five of us ate here on Saturday and we were all very impressed. None of us are strict vegetarians, we had just heard the food was good, and wow, was it ever! A wide and varied menu, so plenty of choice. I had the leek and cherry tartlet to start , and the aubergine cake for main,... more

During our trip through England and Scotland it was very hard to find a vegetarian option that was not some sort of Asian food. David Bann was great and had all sorts of different types of vegetarian cuisine. There were six in our party and only two vegetarians and even the meat eaters loved the food. However, it is a... more

As a vegetarian who loves to travel, there are times (and places) when I have to make do with really boring or really bad veggie food. Not at David Bann's... On a recent visit to Edinburgh a friend and I found this restaurant in our well-used Fodor's guidebook, and decided to give it a try. We reached a few minutes... more

Have just returned from a fab weekend in Edinburgh and must say how much we enjoyed our evening meal at this restaurant. Not our usual choice of venue but decided to give it a try and were we impressed!! There was a good choice of starters and mains and the flavours in all the dishes we chose were excellent. Desserts... more

I visited this restaurant with a group of friends and the food was very good indeed and incredible value. The place has a great atmosphere and the staff were great. Definitely recommend. more

We were expecting something delicious and, as vegetarians, were looking forward to ordering anything we wanted from the menu. Sadly, we were disappointed. The atmosphere and staff were wonderful, but the food came in tiny portions for the... more

A lovely ambient setting. The food is good quality vegetarian food but lacks the creativity of Terre a Terre for example. Also, the service was efficient but somewhat impersonal more

Lovely decor and good use of lighting, but I'm not certain the same attention went into the food and service. Starters were fairly good, my main (vegetable crepe) was distinctly average but the wife's blue cheese and beetroot soufle was good (although the polenta it came with was a gloopy mess). Deserts were a high point, particularly the chocolate souffle.... more
