Venue Overview

In-house catering

Our stunning venue overlooking East Princes Street Gardens is fresh, relaxing and airy and will always make you feel welcome. Our signature Mairi Helena velvet wall at the back of the restaurant creates an inviting and soothing surround for you to enjoy a special dining space in every part of the restaurant. Our sustainable values and commitment to heritage are as stomping today as they were when we opened 13 years ago. Our wooden Anta furniture was specially commissioned for us, Bute or Timorous beasties fabric is used on all our chairs to create a contemporary and refreshing space to relax and enjoy great food. Our outside terrace is open all year round but is best enjoyed from April to September when our weather is slightly warmer. Enjoy our restaurant experience in one of the city's most iconic settings overlooking East Princes Street Gardens, The Scotsman Building, Waverley Bridge and the Balmoral Hotel.
