I found Makar's Mash Bar while doing my research
Good choice?
It looks like it would be a heavy lunch, but if I have dinner at Locanda de Gusti that night, I could eat relatively late as they're open until 10 pm.
They have Cranachan, too - which I've been dreaming about since my previous visit to Scotland.
If not Makar, then any other suggestions?
Thanks
If you want something lighter for lunch, the museum as a nice café on Level 0.
You can see the menu here. It’s called the Museum Kitchen.

I like it because it’s quick. You pay at the counter, grab a seat, and they bring you your food.
Makar’s is fun, yes, but obviously very carby! In a similar vein on Forest Row is Mum’s Comfort Food, although I don’t think they have cranachan.
So many restaurants and cafes to choose from in the area though. Easy enough to just choose whatever takes your fancy at the time.
Carrie, that might be perfect …my time is limited, and a quick, lighter lunch is probably what I need if I’m going to have a carb-filled meal at dinner
Thanks !!

Golden Girl, Yeah, I think Makar’s might be best for another day. I’ll grab a bite in the museum restaurant or something nearby.
Any ideas for lunch near the Botanical Gardens?
Thanks!

There's a couple of nice cafes right on the property. I had the best sandwich there.

I'm all about quick meals when i'm traveling. There's too much to see. No time to eat:-)
Carrie, those look fine! Thanks!
I LOVE to eat - good food is important to me- but I don’t have a lot of time, so quick, tasty lunches are probably best for me …..
