A life saver during the Fringe - Edit
A very large plate of rice and curries is £6/£7, there are usually half a dozen clearly marked vegan options and you can be in and out quickly if you’re in a hurry. Wide selection of soft drinks.

Cheap and filling - Edit
My go-to when needing a cheap and quick full. Canteen style self-service. All vegetarian curries are vegan and so are the samosas. Unfortunately the naan bread is not. Prices have crept up over the years, but my favourite of rice and dal is £5.50.

basic but fine - Edit
A lot of meat on offer with accompanying smells, but also classic veggie/vegan options: lentils, chickpeas, veg curry and more. Neither great quality or flavours but huge portions and low prices.

Nowhere Better - Edit
You can't come to Edinburgh without eating at Mosque Kitchen. It's a canteen style kitchen with a large choice of vegan curries and sides, all delicious.

Amazing briyani vegan choice! - Edit
Vegan choices are clearly stated on the dishes and portion is huge considering myself always having Asian portion, super value for money and one of the more delicious briyani I’ve had! Don’t be fooled by my 4🌟 rating, they do not allow 5🌟 for a non fully vegan restaurant.

Affordable and Tasty - Edit
Well-impressed with the quality of food, good sized portions and reasonable prices. I'll definitely go back. Points deducted mainly for selling meat dishes and for using disposable plastic plates and cutlery.

Good value for money - Edit
Good functional curry when you’re in a rush. It was quite oily and could have been served warmer but it was tasty nonetheless.

Good plentiful food - Edit
Nice vegetable curries, daal etc. The rice is good too. There doesn’t seem to be a dress code. I recommend bringing your own cutlery if you don’t want to use plastic. ‘Pumpkin brown’ is a good cafe in Edinburgh (grass market) that sells a bamboo travel set.

Cheap and cheerful curry in a hurry - Edit
With gorgeous curries served in big hearty portions for less than a fiver a pop, this is a brilliant place to get a satisfying meal on the cheap. The Mosque Kitchen use vegetable oil in their curries, so most of their vegetarian offering is also vegan friendly.
Read moreEvery time I go with my husband, we always get the same thing. I get the mixed veg curry at around £3.50, while he gets the chana masala for £4.00. Add drinks to that, and we’re feeding ourselves for only a tenner. To be fair, there are absolutely no frills to this place – you have to go up to the canteen-style serving area to order and you’re lucky if you get a plate that isn’t made out of paper, but everything considered it’s not bad at all.
Pros: Very cheap, Very fast
Cons: Lacks atmosphere

Good flavours and value - Edit
A huge plate of Dahl and rice for £4.50, you can’t complain about that really. But the dahl is really amazing. All the curries are just well made with good quality ingredients. Loads of vegan options.

A must visit for a quick meal and a seat - Edit
Brisk canteen style service means you’ll always get a seat. They serve meat but they used vegetable oil rather than ghee and you will find at least 4 veggie curries suitable for vegans - bowl of rice plus 3 veggie curries is £7 - not high end Indian food but filling and tasty and you’ll be hugely grateful for it if you don’t have much time
