Scotlands Largest Nachos

Been to the Auld hoose a few times and really like their food, their guacamole on the nachos are amazing. XL nachos feed 3-4 😍

Decent pub food

Nice food with vegan options. Portions are huge! We ordered a hot dog each and 4 of us shared vegan nachos but there was still so much food left!!

Nice pub option

They have plenty of vegan options to choose from, including a dessert. I tried the onion rings and the vegan hotdog and they were quite tasty. Overall, it is a great choice to experience a pub meal.

Pros: Big portions, Nice environment, Tasty food

A decent option

After a previous visit I really wasn't sure if I wants to go back.
Had the nachos which were huge and great value. Heavily loaded.
A side of onion ring we're disappointing. A fiver for a big stack, of frozen rings.. I can make onion rings and I don't work in a kitchen.
Tofu sandwich and chips, decent but not out of this world.

Decent option

Enjoyable Experience

This was the last place we ate at on our trip and definitely did not disappoint. The place has a really great vibe and though the food itself was not overly memorable, it was definitely enjoyable and made me feel like I was getting a real taste of Scotland.

Pub grub

We visited this pub when meeting an old friend, it was her suggestion as she lives in Edinburgh and had been a few times before. I had the crispy tofu sandwich, which as nice.

There’s a lot of drink options and my wife had the veggie Mac and cheese which she said was good. The nachos look INSANE! They’re huge!

Pros: Good atmosphere, Typical pub food

Cons: Quite loud due to quiz

Nachos!

Who can say no to a plate of nachos the size of a small child and towering onion rings? Excellent food, insane portions, cosy atmosphere, make sure to bring a friend (or two!)

Great portions!

Massive portions that guarantees you will leave feeling very well fed! Me and friends enjoyed the vegan nachos and onion rings, amazing. The service was great and it was all very cosy. We had traveled quite far to visit The Auld Hoose, but it was SO worth it. I want to go back!

Nachos are so good

Friend and I split the regular-sized nachos. Managed to finish the whole thing somehow. It is giant! But really yummy. Too many jalapeños for my liking though. Atmosphere was nice, cool metal music playing but not too loud. Staff was nice. Omni friend enjoyed their meals too.

Definitely a place to visit when you are reeaaally hungry! The vegan nachos are huge and will easily feed two people, probably even three. The onion rings are also really good!

So big!

When I ordered the nachos by myself the guy was like ‘uh are you hungry?’ lmao!! But I greatly underestimated how big they would be and they tasted so good but after a while you lose all sense of taste. There were plug sockets and the staff were nice and there were a lot if vegan options.

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Big portions, Lots of seats

Cons: TOO big portions, Low key expensive

Awesome!

Awesome place to go, especially when you‘re in a mixed group with omnivores. We ordered the regular size vegan nachos and even that was a huge portion and very tasty. Lots of other vegan options as well.
