White Horse Oyster Seafood - Edinburgh

Excellent quality of seafoods on a Friday night. Do have a cocktail with pineapple juice. seafood is super fresh. Normally the kids don’t eat tasteless lobster but this time they love it very much. Not only suitable to have gathering with friends but also with small kids. 4-5pm is happy hour, oysters £2@, but only 2 types out of 3 are included in happy hour. Monkfish satay is fantastic too.

Shared a lovely meal here with my partner which we booked on short notice, and changed the time of on even shorter notice. Food was all brilliant, would highly recommend the oysters, mussels and octopus in particular. The oysters were great value and served exactly as I like them with lemon, pickled shallots and Tabasco. Only thing that let them down was the drinks, the only beer they had was Guinness which is probably the least suitable beer for seafood. They had plenty of taps advertising other stuff but none were on at the time, they also had no bottles of beer/cider. I appreciate most people will drink wine when eating seafood but for those of us who don’t drink wine it would be ideal to have more beer section. Staff were great and would give 4.5 stars if I could. Will almost certainly be back next time we’re in Edinburgh.

This is our favorite oyster place every time in Edinburgh! I always eat too much oysters, but not that I complain

What a great place and amazing oysters! We walked on the streets on our last day and saw a 20 something lady eating 30 piece of oysters in the window. That saw the first strange sign of something is going on. My wife loves oysters so it made sance to eat one or two pieces, since in Hungary there is no sea. We ended up eating 8 oysters together since there were Sunday Happy Hour for Oysters! That is lucky I have to say but the quality? Hmmm. Best we ever had. We did sit at the bar and our waitress recommended her favorite type of oyster and my wife liked it a lot. When paying I realized there is a happy hour so I asked for 2 of each 3 types and we tried all together too. The one type what is the favorite of the barman was blow my mind. I have to say I became an oyster lover myself thanks to White Horse and the staff. They made us feel good even it was a bit embarrassing to sit in just for two oysters at the first place. Their kindness helped us feel good end relaxed and give us the feeling we want to come back. Thank you guys. I also decided not to eat oysters in Hungary anymore but save up the money and come back this place everytime we are in Edinburg.

The best meal we have had all year! A lovely surprise! We randomly picked this place last minute on a Sunday night. The octopus was perfectly cooked, the scallops were juicy and paired well with the rest of the dish but the favorite was the scotch bonnet salmon. The wine was precisely paired and the service was friendly and quick. We will recommend to everyone
