Royal Deck Tearoom — Restaurant in City of Edinburgh

After a great tour of H.M.Y. Britannia, we decided to treat ourselves as kings and queens and have lunch at the Royal Deck Tearoom atop of the Britannia. The view from the tearoom is well worth a visit. Needless to say, the ambiance is very welcoming and the atmosphere very royal. One of us enjoyed a Salmon sandwich with smoked salmon, lemon, and cracked black pepper and cream cheese on wholemeal bread. Another had the Flat Field Mushroom, truffle, and chive soup. Our other friend tried the Tomato Soup which was vine plum tomato and red pepper. Both soups arrived with a warm bread roll and butter. We enjoyed a glass of wine with our lunch. The food was great and at a reasonable price for its location at a tourist attraction.

We then saw him go up and seem agitated with the manager that had been ignoring us. After seeing this and because of the feeling we weren’t welcome, we decided to just pay and leave…which they were able to accomplish very promptly for...

Nice fresh ingredients and later we found out that they are using the original galley as always used. So great! I would highly recommend this addition to your tour. And a lovely view from the huge windows. I could even see the final Iron Man out in the harbour, looking...
