A tiny Royal Mile spot delivering friendly hospitality and charcoal-grilled kebabs, standout fish and chips, and wallet-friendly comfort food; space is tight and amenities are minimal, but food quality and warmth win repeat visits.
Chef Bako delivers exceptional food quality with crisp fish & chips and charcoal-grilled kebabs that justify its strong local following, paired with outstanding hospitality from an engaged owner. However, the very limited seating and cramped interior genuinely constrain the dining experience, and utilitarian decor lacks the polish expected at higher grades. This is honest, quality-focused casual dining—excellent for takeaway and repeat visits, but the physical constraints prevent it from reaching grade A territory.
One caveat: Seating is minimal and some seats face a wall; dine-in comfort is limited
