Checkpoint

had a lovely birthday meal for a friend and staff were great!

Very tasty halloumi burger and chips. Nice portion size and pleasant atmosphere

Great brunch options. Lovely staff & very helpful with dietary requirements. Food took a little while to arrive but it was very obviously it had all been freshly prepared. Would highly recommend

Delicious shakshuka! Great unhurried place To meet and talk work. Service is friendly and efficient

Fabulous restaurant, the food was delicious and fresh. Our server David was great, extremely friendly and helpful. The restaurant has a lovely atmosphere and I particularly like the way the tables have lots of space between them giving the restaurant a really spacious feel. Can’t wait to go back and maybe try the daytime menu!!!

Always a relaxed place in which to enjoy the company of others. Good staff, tasty food, will return. Thank you.

Food was amazing, service fantastic, couldn’t have wished for more!

Real good. Such high ceilings and architecture and the food and drinks and prices

The food was delicious and the staff very friendly and smiley! We reall enjoyed our visit,if one tiny complaint it was a bit dark for us ....but we are in o

Very nice food and friendly service. Relaxed atmosphere and spacious.

Great food,fab bloodymarys, attentive service! I would Highly recommend for brunch !!!!!!

Great ambience, good food. Service a little slow, but the friendly staff makes up for it.

Felt a bit hurried to leave despite there not being a wait for tables.

Cheap, good quality food. A student restaurant vibe though with quite loud music

Great food. Service can be slow sometimes but it's a great place, nice food and friendly staff. The vegan options are great!

I love this place. Regularly have brunch/coffee meetings there and would always recommend.

Sadly not as delicious as previous visit. Service was slow but staff very nice. Lighting was so poor it was hard to read the menus and music a bit dominating. Will go back to see if that was a one off as previous visits (2 of them) were very good.

Lots of lovely healthy hot and cold, delicious breakfast and lunch choices- and a lovely bucks fizz to top it all- will definitely go again!

Great service and excellent food to share with friends. Not had any dessert. Mains and starters lovely!

I love Checkpoint, I'd never had a bad experience. My friends and I went there for Brunch and a catch up and the food was delicious. The only thing was that parts of my rye bircher were a little bit... Fizzy? Overfermented? Not sure about that. But I still enjoyed the parts that tasted normal! And I didn't die! 😂

Fantastic food, brill service and lovely atmosphere. We had the lamb rump, halloumi chips and burger - it was all delicious. Really good for catering to special dietary requests.

Went to Checkpoint for lunch on a Wednesday afternoon. Food was delicious and a great selection of options! Service was timely and polite. Only criticism is that the music was just a wee bit too loud. I'll definitely be back

Food was amazing. I had smoked salmon and poached eggs - probably one of the best breakfasts I have had. My daughter had the veggie breakfast which looked great.

Fantastic food and really good service. It has a lovely atmosphere, especially on a cold winters night! I’ll definitely be back again for food and drinks!

Pleasant enough experience. music a little loud. Would visit again.

I regularly go here for lunch. It’s casual and relaxed but the food is always very good and evidently freshly prepared.

Regularly eat here. The food is always very enjoyable and the atmosphere is relaxed.

Staff were great and very friendly The food was tasty and well presented - we had brunch And it is a quirky place to eat too

This is a place with a lovely atmosphere. However for 2 of the 4 people it was a disappointment. Firstly, although the staff are nice, the service is really slow. We had read this in previous reviews so thought, that’s cool we’ll fill the gap with bread & olives, sadly these came along with the main meals which defeated the purpose. So I ordered the Buddah Bowl, this was fine but I was surprised it was a salad bowl as it didn’t say on the menu & was listed in a different section from the salads, I presumed the veggies would be warm. My daughter wanted the chicken miso which was unavailable so opted for the hake & loved it. My husband & son both went for burgers but couldn’t eat them as the flavour was not good, and they aren’t that fussy! The chips made up for it though, they are amazing! So basically my daughter & I would perhaps go back but the boys wouldn’t.

Very good food and really great atmosphere for New Year’s Eve. Great way to start the celebrations. Staff all very friendly and happy to help.

Really relaxed vibe, nice unpretentious interior, good music selection, friendly attentive staff and the food was lovely. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Edinburgh or living locally

The menu (including drinks - soft and alcoholic) is extensive and very tantalising! Many dishes can be orders as vegetarian or vegan options if desired. The staff here were very friendly and helpful and gave us plenty of time to decide but also gave their own recommendations. Nice ambience, though the lighting was quite low. A really good dining expatience!

Great service, fab food and really reasonably priced. We had burgers, chicken miso bowl, Buddha bowl and all were full of flavour and well presented.

Very good service :) The atmosphere and very immpressive menu of food and drinks made my birthday Sunday brunch very special. My friends enjoyed it too

Love the layout of the restaurant and decor. Food was amazing as always. So many options for my vegan friend too which she loved. Will definitely be back!

Food delicious and a very nice Red wine. Nice quiet table and very friendly staff. Our second visit in last two weeks. Back very soon.

Another wonderful visit! An exciting & delicious menu. Lovely, helpful staff. Charming evening atmosphere. Divine! We really enjoyed it & will be back again soon!

This is of my favourite places to eat and hang out in Edinburgh. There is a great menu and you are always guaranteed cheery service.

Lovely menu and great value for money. I wish I had room for dessert! Staff were all very friendly. Only downside was the wobbly table!

The service here is really excellent - knowledgeable and friendly. The food is great, with a new menu too. The new menu isn't yet on their webpage, but try the pastrami on rye. With chips :)
