Edinburgh Takeaway
Fast Food
A fast-food spot, rated 5.0 on Google from 3 reviews — too few to rank yet.
Gibraltar Index
Not scored yetNot scored yet
Only 3 reviews so far — below our 15-review threshold, so we hold off on an Index Score rather than trust a number that thin. Our fortnightly read will score it once it crosses 15. How this works

Our review
Edinburgh Takeaway is a fast-food takeaway at Unit A, 18 Edinburgh Estate, on Queensway Road. It is not on Tripadvisor; on Google it has 5.0 from 3 reviews, two with text, re-read on 6 September 2026. It is listed on the Index but not ranked, and both written reviews are from December 2024, so the picture is nearly two years old.
Both are glowing and brief: the best homemade food and kebab around, delicious food at an excellent price, and a superb atmosphere. One notes you can buy the local lottery there and book it for catering events.
Two reviews posted on the same day, with nothing since, are too little to judge by. It looks like an estate takeaway serving its neighbours.
Come for a kebab or a home-cooked plate if you are on Queensway, and treat the score as unproven. Nobody from Gibraltar Index has eaten here; this write-up is drawn from two reviews.
Written from the Google reviews and Google's score on 6 September 2026, not from a meal we ate — nobody from Gibraltar Index has eaten here. It is not listed on Tripadvisor. The recurring themes it draws on are below.

How it compares
It holds 5.0 out of 5 on Google from 3 reviews. It is not listed on Tripadvisor, so the Index rests on Google alone.
How the Gibraltar Index Score is built
It is not an average of the two. Each source is weighted by how many reviews it carries, then pulled toward the Gibraltar average so a high score from a handful of reviews cannot outrank a strong score from thousands. Edinburgh Takeaway scores 5.0 from 3 on Google — below the 15-review threshold, so it is not scored yet. The fortnightly refresh will score it once it clears 15 reviews.
We read the 2 most recent Tripadvisor reviews and summarised what recurs, in our own words; the reviews we drew on are quoted below, attributed to their authors. The Tripadvisor and Google scores are each shown 1:1 as those platforms publish them; the Index Score is ours and the formula is above. Nobody from Gibraltar Index has eaten here, so nothing is a first-hand verdict.
