Planning to visit ESF? Check out our opening times and where/how to find us here.
ACCESSIBILITY
Wheelchairs welcome!!
We are entirely on the ground floor with access at street level.
We have 2 accessible washrooms located at either end of our street food market and we can remove seating at our shared tables to allow access direct to the table.
You can choose to order via a QR code on the table or with our floor staff using a paper menu. We bring all the food and drinks to you.
Our brilliant team are here to make sure you have a 10/10 time. Please let them know if you need any assistance.
ESF is a space for everyone and we’re always looking to sse how we can improve. If you’ve got any feedback we’d love to hear from you.
BABIES & CHILDREN
We’re baby and child friendly!
We have baby changing facilities beside the main bar and can bring you a high chair on request. Just let one of our team know if you’d like a bench moved or removed to make space for a buggy.
Under 17s need to be accompanied by an adult but can stay at ESF until 11pm.
BOOKINGS
We don’t take bookings.
ESF is a super casual, chilled out, just rock up and get a table kinda place.
We seat over 500+ inside and outside, and our team will always do their best to get you a table.
DOGS
We’re dog friendly inside and out!
Share snaps of your four legged bestie at Edinburgh Street Food using the hashtag #DogsOfESF.
Well behaved dogs are always welcome, but if they’re barking or causing mischief we’ll ask them to leave – sorry.
Please be aware ESF can get very busy and the music ramps up late at night.
FOOD ALLERGENS & DIETARY REQUIREMENTS
We’re HOT on allergies. In every kitchen, behind the bar and in our staff room we have allergy booklets which provide a full breakdown of every ingredient in each dish.
Please alert our team to your allergies and make sure you chat to the street food vendor to check for allergies in any special dishes and for any potential cross contamination.
Our menu boasts a minimum of:
18 vegan mains, 15 vegan sides, lots of vegan sauces, 3 vegan desserts (with additional toppings like vegan honeycomb and adorable mini meringues made of chickpea water), and at least 5 vegan certified beers on draught, with more in the fridges.
We have gluten free options with separate prep areas and fryers for coeliacs – take a look at Antojitos, Junk and What “Le” Duck (for safe fries). Please always chat to the chef to ensure zero cross-contamination.
We have plenty of vegetarian and vegan options, and our fried chicken vendor CHIX uses certified Halal chicken.
ORDERING
ESF is for everyone and so there are three ways to order, to make the experience your own:
- Order via a QR code at your table and pay online.
- Ask for a physical paper menu and order with our awesome floor team.
- Head up to the kitchen, chat to the street food vendor and place an order with them.
We’ll bring your food and drinks straight to your table as soon as they’re ready.
PACKAGING
Every trader uses biodegradable, compostable and eco-friendly packaging.
Some of our packaging may contain a ‘plastic in product’ logo, this is due to new legislation which enforces labelling when PLA ( 100% biosourced and biodegradable plastic) is used.
SOCIAL MEDIA
TAKEAWAYS
You won’t ever see a fluorescent delivery bag or helmet in ESF, it’s just not our vibe.
If you’re in a hurry or don’t want to leave a morsel of that epic dish, just ask our floor team or the street food vendor for a biodegradable takeaway container.

If you’d like to get in touch with us please email us at events@edinburgh-street-food.com and we’ll direct your message to the right place.
