Bonnie Burrito Mexas — Restaurant in City of Edinburgh

Excellent burritos, high quality ingredients and overall very tasty food! However the recent increase in prices has been too steep... I used to order a Large burrito for around £9, which was a great deal. Now a Regular burrito costs £9.95. Also, they have removed the Large burrito from the menu, leaving only the supersize.

The issue is that a Regular burrito is too small for me, and I don't feel full after eating one...the old large size was perfect for me, but now I need to order a supersize to get around the same amount of food as I had with the old large size. Now if we compare the prices, the old large size used to be £9, while the current supersize is just below £15. That is over a 50% markup for the same amount of food! I know that the cost of living crisis has affected prices everywhere, but 50% is way too much!

I understand that prices had to increase, but the fact that you changed the burrito size selection at the same time as you increased your prices has made the overall cost per amount of food received very high. As there is no longer a size between regular and supersize I feel like buying a regular size is not worth it because it's too small, while buying a supersize is way too expensive.

I really hope that something changes soon... I really liked your burritos - they are delicious, but I can't afford them anymore as I'm forced to go supersize if I actually want to get a decent amount of food, as you deleted the...

The food quality and atmosphere for what it is for such a small venue are good. The service itself was a little dispassionate, the wee lass serving me reminded me of the Blockbusters cashier from Scott Pilgrim vs The World: dead inside and a bit sick fed up of working hospitality. Fair enough, but as a fellow hospitality worker at least pretend when the customer is there and you're chatting to them.

My issue really is the exorbitant pricing for the food and how much they've downsized the portion sizes. There new medium burrito is there old small burrito. You'll be paying over £10 for a large burrito which isn't that big now compared to Bar Burritos for a similar price range. I know there is a cost of living crisis, and it will be to do with the increase in electricity and gas prices, but the majority of the ingredients are cheaply acquired from a supermarket. For a similar price you may as well go get an Indian, Chinese, Japanese or Korean dish and sit in, that's how much you're paying. Bonnie Burrito before this was a brilliant place that was affordable, even during the pandemic. This is just disappointing in general. Honestly, spend your money elsewhere. Sometimes they have little outdoor tuck shops near the Blood Centre that are the old prices and portion sizes so I guess it you really need a burrito go...

As many other reviewers have pointed out, this place used to be really good. The food was consistently good and the staff were not only friendly, but also took pride in their work -- they ensured that they served well-filled burritos and used to instruct newer staff members to stuff their burritos unlike a subway sandwich. Recently, prices have gone up drastically with most staff being part-timers. You now get considerable variation in the quality of the fillings too, depending on who has put it on the stove earlier in the day. Finally, vegan options may or may not be available. I even tried calling in advance to check that they have some left, but even then, I have been lied to. This is absurd, particularly because of the heavy premium levied on their vegan chicken (now vegan sausage) option. Quite disappointed as it used to be a great place that my friends and I go to once or twice a week. I doubt I'll be coming here that...
