Bell's Diner (Stockbridge)

• I must preface this with the information that said friend has been talking my ear off about Bell's for months
• The lady that runs front of house was friendly and managed to host a packed restaurant with finesse and charm clearly something she is used to given that we had to make a reservation
• Though mayonnaise was absent (I didn't ask they probably do have some)
• The pickles were really yummy and they are always my favourite part of a burger so it was great to be able to put heaps on
• The roquefort was particularly delicious
• The bun and chips however were a bit of a let down the chips were nondescript and the bun wasn't toasted and was just a run of the mill type bun
• The atmosphere was buzzing and I can see why it's stood the test of time
• This wee restaurant consists of a red walled front room with a spattering of random photography and some sticky wooden tables
• Not a brioche bun in site which is a refreshing change to all the new burger joints around
• Classic burgers washed down with classic desserts
• The relish tray is something else as well
• Having lived in Edinburgh for 20+ years (and having eaten out a LOT in this city) my favourite burger is at Bell&rsquo
• The restaurant it is a simple little room with not many frills
