About

MUMS Great Comfort Food was previously known as Monster Mash Cafe - although the restaurant has had a little rebrand, it still serves delicious, affordable classics that have made it one of Edinburgh's most popular everyday restaurants. 

The restaurant prioritises getting their ingredients from local suppliers in order to provide nothing but the best quality to their diners without having to compromise on the price. They’re also a step above the rest as they serve customers their own gin - Mum’s No.4 Seriously Comforting Gin - that’s distilled and bottled in Scotland. Along with this, they serve an array of other drinks: cold and hot, soft and alcoholic, even American diner-classic shakes are all available.

The drinks are the only thing that entice guests in their droves - the extensive menu also draws the attention, especially as much of it is vegeterian, vegan and gluten free. The MUMS Great Breakfast Menu includes rolls, pancake stacks and full English breakfasts, and they always have a new soup of the day on offer. MUMS offers classic British pub options like fish and chips, pies, stews, and even a haggis and mushroom Wellington. Perhaps most impressive of all is the sausage and mash standalone menu, which has six different types of sausage, three gravies, and an astonishing ten different mash options to choose from, including garlic mushroom, cajun, chipotle and cheese, caramelised leek and bacon, plain and simple, and many more. Make sure you leave room for a comfort pud as well. 

With an iconic diner-style, MUMS is anyone’s top choice for the greatest, most comforting gourmet-quality food that’s as affordable as it is delicious.
