Gallery Restaurant and Bar

About

A more exciting location could not be imagined for The Gallery Restaurant and Bar, housed in the stunning new Weston link joining the National Gallery and the Royal Scottish Academy. The views over leafy Princes Street Gardens and landmarks beyond is breathtaking. The restaurant itself is laid out over three levels with a gathering-place horseshoe-shaped bar on the middle level, as well as outdoor seating. Decor is smart and up to the minute, and so is the modern Scottish menu. Try starter of sunblush tomato risotto with spinach and shaved parmesan, main course of grilled calves liver with buttered mash, pancetta and jus, and pudding of raspberry mousse in bitter chocolate cup. Wine list is very international with loads available by the glass. Kids' menu
