"Ohhhhh! Yes they are! So, basically I took the train from Birmingham to Edinburgh just to take a selfie outside Edinburgh castle (long story, wont bore you with it). Anyway, with said selfie in the can and with just under two hours left till the...train home I happened upon this rather non-descript looking bar in Market St. The place appeared to be full of backpackers (which made perfect sense as I later discovered there was a hostel next door) and was a bit dark and dingy looking. However, taking selfies is hungry work and they had burgers so why not. Anyway, the girl behind the bar was lovely and helpful so after asking for a recommendation I ordered the ‘Highland Cow’ (6oz burger with Haggis and Monterey Jack cheese) and a pint of ale infused lager. First of all I should say that I was very very hungry but this burger really hit the mark. The chips only looked like regular French fries but they were really well seasoned with salt and crushed black pepper and together with the whiskey cream sauce were absolutely awesome! The burger was also well cooked and together with the Haggis tasted greeeeeaaat! The ale/lager was really very nice too and was a good recommendation so all in all enjoyable meal. In summary I was pleasantly rewarded with some excellent service, satisfying burger and a delicious pint so two thumbs up to all the staff at Jake’s Place"

Visited Saturday afternoon, couple pints with my lady. Bit peckish, thought a few nibbles first then a big burger. Order Nachos with pulled pork. Not very hot (heatwise,) squeezy cheese, squeezy guacamole, cold meat. Didn't bother ordering a main course. Simple dish, easy to get...wrong

I should have known better. I'm hungry and just off the train. Where not to go is the first eatery/pub (almost) I see when I emerge from the railway station. It was busy and brash. Burger and beer was passed to me without hardly a...word or expression. A bit wild and a bit rough in here not my idea of a relaxing lunch. Best learned and forgotten. Sorry.

for the first time, the decoration jakes visited a bit rough out with wavy plates on the walls, but the staff was friendly and helpful. a few drinks on a table were better than we could manage at other locations near the waverley. train station, since the fringe festival was in full and was packed everywhere. that was the afternoon, so I would imagine that this place will light up at night and make a great local bar.

Good stop near the train station and shows sport if that's your thing linked to Belushis and the hostel too and share toilets and kitchen although not menu. 390 a T so not the cheapest but just ok. The haggis is superb but please...avoid the deep fried mars bars at a fiver if they still do them it's nae Scottish at all!! We were treated very well by the Manager after having to vacate our reserved table and were seated at the bar in full view of the TV's. Inflatable sheep are available in the toilet

We ran the marathon and felt like half gods, so we were in need for some Guinness. We decided to enter Jake's place. After our entrance we did a Dutch traditional stoelendans', unfortunately this was not appreciated. We then sat down as gentlemen and started...to enjoy our Guinness. In this place Guinness is not served, but taken away from you.. suddenly the waitress grabbed our Guinness and ordered us to leave. My friend was in an emotional state and instead of providing comfort she decided to deny him his Guinness... then the waitress made a comment about the length of one of the guys and was already phoning the police. Sad thing is she threw the Guinness down the drain.. we were all very...
