What To Expect

Beneath the streets of Edinburgh lies a hidden corner where time seems to slow down, among stone walls, aged timber and bottles that have been waiting decades to be opened.

We invite you to descend into an authentic Scottish cellar and enjoy a unique gastronomic experience in a traditional hidden restaurant, loved by locals and far from the usual tourist routes.

Over approximately 2.5 hours, you will journey through Scotland without leaving the table — from its ancient origins to its modern culinary identity — guided by stories, flavours and traditions that are still very much alive today.

Enjoy a carefully curated menu of traditional Scottish dishes, including fresh oysters, Cullen skink, traditional haggis, Scottish seafood specialities and a classic dessert. You will also be served drinks such as premium Scottish whisky, local beer and other selections inspired by the country’s culinary heritage.

Accompanied by a local host, you will discover stories, curiosities and culinary secrets that bring each dish to life.

Your place at the table is waiting beneath the streets of Edinburgh.
