text: I have only been to Red Squirrel once before and have not been back since until a hungry tum for breakfast brought me here And now I realise why I have not been backnnIts a lovely bar to look at Big and spacious and bright I think I like the decor in here the most out of all three Holyrood a bars The service seemed a little meh though You know when you pick up that staff are taking it easy And their friends come in and banter with them right in the middle of the floor and make you feel awkward for being there as a customer Yeah thatnnI notice Laura D compared their burgers to Holyrood a Whilst it is the same style of menu with nearidentical burger options I can say that the Holyrood a is far far superior The buns are the same the toppings are the same but they just are not as good at The Southern I cannot put my finger on it but just they are very mehnnSo for breakfast My dining companion had the full breakfast and I asked for the blueberry pancakes They are out of pancakes Oh Ok I will have the granola instead thennnWhat turned up was pretty much a fullboxworth of granola in a bowl SO MUCH GRANOLA Luckily I would asked for it with the compote that would have come on the greek yoghurt as I find granola alone a bit boringnnAnd it was It was just dusty floury granola Not the Red Squirrels fault a lot of granola is like this But when you get enough granola that would last a small family a week it just gets so repetitive and dull And they would packed it into the bowl like whoah so it went really soggy when I covered it in milknnOverall I just did not really enjoy eating the granola The price was ua or so and I am guessing they gave me that much granola to justify a higher price I would rather pay ua for half the size I also heard that the full breakfast was meh There was one small rasher of bacon that was very fatty a really big slice of dry white toast and it just did not live up to the normal feast of Scottish breakfast stylennI know Im ranting a bit about breakfast I think I am just upset that Red Squirrel is not on the same standard as Holyrood a the Southern is close which is a shame I would maybe still pop in here for a drink although given the new bars opening in the area that are really pretty awesome Red Squirrel may have to up its game a little
