MERCHANTS RESTAURANT
Nestling in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town 
and only a stone’s throw away from historic Greyfriar’s Churchyard and the Grassmarket, Merchants is one of the City’s most established and popular restaurants. From the outset, Proprietor, Susie Doherty had a single concept; to create a total eating experience founded on fine food and excellent service. Over the years, it’s a purpose that has never faltered.
Here you’ll find, as many have before, Classic Scottish fare presented with flair and imagination; prepared with the freshest produce and accompanied by the finest wines, to produce that special Merchants moment. You’ll want to return again and again.
From an intimate dinner for two to large parties, Merchants is the perfect choice with buffet style parties of up to a hundred or eighty seated guests easily accommodated.
Just been for a fabulous meal at Merchants Restaurant with Spice Scotland – has to be one of my favourite restaurants in Edinburgh! I thoroughly recommend the baked pears with Stilton to start – so yummy! Such friendly staff – always make it a super night!
