Waterside Bistro Haddington: photo by Adrian Welch
Well-known bar and restaurant on banks of the Tyne, very popular on summer weekends.
Waterside Bistro, Haddington
Now open again with really very good food. The dining areas have been refurbished making the whole place much brighter and more inviting. Adam Cochrane - 7 Aug 2010
Waterside Bistro, Haddington
Great that this classic restaurant has reopened, under its old name, but prices quite steep (for East Lothian) at around £13 for mains, still good food + service. Linzie Stewart - 5 Aug 2010
Previously, from 2007:
Four recent visits to the fine dining Waterside Restaurant (upstairs) prompted me to put an entry back on for this establishment, removed following separate visits to the Bar and most unrewardingly, the downstairs Waterside Bistro. Recent visits to the Waterside Bar suggest this is well worth a visit.
Service upstairs in the restaurant is friendly, and professional. The Waterside menu is old-fashioned I feel and full of classics often missing from 'trendier' restaurants, such as roast duck and pheasant, served with plentiful helpings of vegetables. The nearest competitor to the Waterside Bistro Haddington in terms of dining is the Drovers in East Linton (or possible the Goblin Ha' in Gifford, both East Lothian) but the Waterside Bistro's warm-coloured space is larger and more formal, and the setting can hardly be beaten.

View from Waterside Bistro Haddington of St Mary's Church by Adrian Welch
There are fine views over the River Tyne from the Waterside Bistro to Haddington's imposing St Mary's Collegiate Church, and of the pedestrianised Nungate Bridge. The old stone bridge - Nungate Bridge - is said to be the oldest remaining in Scotland, and on the other side is where the French garrison gathered in 1549 (to assist the Scottish) to defeat the English holding siege to Haddington. At that time, in the days of Henry VIII, the Scottish Parliament met in Haddington.

View from Waterside Bistro of Nungate Bridge, Haddington by Adrian Welch
Haddington is the market town for East Lothian, formerly Haddingtonshire. It is 18 miles east of Edinburgh, off the A1. The Waterside Bistro & Restaurant stands beside the Nungate bridge just east of the centre of Haddington. The Waterside Bistro was originally the Weir House and was refurbished with five adjacent cottages. There is external dining along the frontage and on a terrace facing St Mary's Church, the largest parish church in Scotland.
