Restaurant
For quite a while restaurants in and around Edinburgh have been spearheading the revival of those traditional Scottish country dishes which were marginalized for a time during the years when foreign cuisine became available and exciting to try.

Craigiebield House Hotel, restaurant The national palate seems to have experienced the best of world cuisine and there is a definite trend to return to the indigenous dishes which nourished and nurtured the country’s most renowned chefs, inspiring them take to the apron in the first place.

Of course, years of being exposed to international food has left a lingering taste in the hearts of discerning diners, necessitating a spoonful of reinvention and a dollop of flare.

Being a Midlothian restaurant, Midlothian once part of Edinburgh, the restaurant offers diners the chance to move just outside the city and enjoy food from a gourmet county kitchen in the surrounds which suit it best.

This revitalized interest in Scottish cuisine has been good news for the dedicated chefs of Midlothian’s Craigiebield House Hotel Restaurant, afforded them a real chance to exploit the abundance of unequalled local ingredients to bring hungry diners a menu which nourishes as it excites.

A menu where you’ll find the best Scottish Smoked Salmon sitting comfortably aside a Pan Fried Duck Breast on a Prune and Red Wine Jus, or maybe it’ll take the Cumberland Sausages with Creamy Mash and Rich Onion Gravy to convince you.

The locally sourced Scottish beef takes a place of pride on the menu and a Chargrilled Fillet with Chunk Chips will affirm your faith in the Highland farmers. Of course, following a strict ethic of freshness and the season’s finest offerings, the menu changes all the time.

Craigiebield House Hotel, fine dining The lunch and all-day menus have a selection of lighter meals and pleasing favourites, from hearty soups to sandwiches on a variety of exceptional breads with choice cheeses and other delicious fillings, to Steak and Guiness Pie and Beer Battered Haddock, right to the wicked side of sweetness where an ample helping of Warm Chocolate Fudge Cake with Vanilla Ice Cream is worth leaving some space for.

The Hotel is well set up for banqueting and large scale catering.

For any big occasion which takes advantage of the beautiful location, the kitchen is known for going that little bit further to make sure that every morsel is something special. From Weddings to Conferences, the talented kitchen and front of house staff of the Craigiebield House Hotel offer a gourmet experience to be remembered.
