Directions

You want to visit - You have this in

An upmarket West End basement bar and restaurant built in General Haig's old wine cellar. Candlelit alcoves lead into a bright and modern dining area.

The menu has a Scottish influence with an emphasis on seafood. The food is a cut above average pub grub but reasonably priced compared to most restaurants.

As you would expect from wine cellars, there is a good selection of wine to go with the food. There are monthly wine tastings along with live Jazz sessions on Sunday from 8 to 11pm.

Information for this venue is provided by the Edinburgh & South East Scotland Branch of CAMRA
