Excellent vegan food, drinks and atmosphere

The food is delicious (especially the chipotle Mac n cheese), loved the vegan pina colada and the music was great too. Highly recommend, this was my go-to evening hangout spot while visiting Edinburgh😄

Best loaded fries

My husband and I came here for dinner and it’s in a really fun setting with friendly staff. The food we had was amazing, I can highly recommend the Philly cheesesteak loaded fries.

Amazing seitan

They've definitely gone down the junk food route but it's 100% worth it. The loaded fries and chicken burger were incredible. Really good atmosphere and vibe.

Great vibes nice food

We had one main and two sides which we shares, and were all very tasty and plenty. We had the Philly cheesesteak fries and on the side both the buffalo cauliflower and the blue maize chips. They have two areas inside, one for booked tables and one for walk in which were very cosy and the staff is extremely friendly. Order at the counter. The only oddity is that they have a drink on the menu that is marked as not suitable for vegetarians or vegans, while they are otherwise completely vegetarian.

Pros: Very cosy and relax atmosphere, Tasty food, Very friendly staff

Cons: Non-veg drink on menu

Boring food - Great Wibe

I personally did not like the food here, The Mac n cheese was bland and boring. The ch*ck Burger patty vas okay, but the dressing tasted only of very strong garlic and The bun was dry. The best i can say about the food is that the chips were really crispy.

The staff is friendly and The cocktails were good. The Wibe is like a chill tiki night club and I could absolutely hang out here on a night out but i would skip the food.

Pros: Cocktails , Hbtqi friendly

Cons: Food, Expensive

LOVE

delicious, lovely atmosphere and kind staff.
we were spoilt for choice so we got several sides to share, everything was delicious! my favourite was probably the cauliflower.
great cocktails too! and good weekday deals, i can’t quite remember but i think it was something like certain cocktails for £7 monday-wednesday?

I keep on coming

I've been to Paradise Palms a decent number of times, and I'll be visiting again at least a decent number more!

The food is delightful, tasty, and interesting (even the basic burger!). Staff are super friendly and accommodating, and the decor is wonderful - such a nice vibe.

It was a little chilly for my liking, although they'd only just opened for the day when we arrived.

Can't fault the place for anything really, 5* top notch 👍

Pros: Everything vegan!, Amazing tastes, Interesting choices

Cons: A wee bit cold

A lovely bar with amazing food.

I love this restaurant, it is quirky with a lovely vibe. Staff are friendly and are helpful. The food is delicious and the menu offers light bites and heavier meals. My only issue is offering to serve dairy.

Pros: The menu is vegan, Lovely staff, Nice atmosphere

Cons: Pricey, Serves dairy on request, Not enough healthy options

Tasty, satisfying, friendly

Very cool place for some cocktails and delicious vegan junk food. The cheeseburger and cauliflower bites are just awesome. Service is very friendly but a bit chaotic.

Would be perfect if vegan!

For some reason, the only non-vegan item is cheese and if you ask to add cheese, the default is the non vegan one! Would be perfect if it was just a 100% vegan kitchen! The buffalo cauliflower (or buffalo chicken special) is REALLY GOOD!!! £7 cocktails Mon-Wed.

Love their food

Food is overall excellent. Sxsw burger is delicious. The cajun jackfruit fries are the best ever. Bbq corn ribs were tasty. Service good. The cocktails could be a little better, as an avid cocktail drinker, I've tried them here on several occasions and never found one I really enjoyed. Could be better for the price.

Cons: Cocktails are not the best... Could improve

One of my favourite places

I’ve been coming here since 2016 and this place is like a comfort blanket. Always great food and drinks. The mac is a staple classic, the philly cheesesteak fries are phenomenal. They introduced me to corn ribs and now I’m obsessed. I do miss the tofish bites sometimes!

Great Vegan Comfort Food

This is the place I always recommend to tourists as it's in a great location, the food is delicious, the cocktails are great and the atmosphere is rad. For awhile the kitchen was closed a lot, but it seems to have gotten better now. One of my favourite mac and cheeses in the city and the burgers are delicious (I recommend the SXSW). Not the biggest fan of the frickles (too much batter) but there's plenty of choices and everything else I've tried has been great.

Pros: Delicous food, Great cocktails , Great atmosphere

Cons: Kitchen can be shut
