Wedgwood is a calm, sophisticated retreat from the steady stream of Royal Mile tourists. Attention to detail is the order of the day, and Paul and Lisa Wedgwood give their restaurant the personal touch with a thoughtful wine list and ever evolving seasonal recipes.
Expect to pay slightly more for this refreshing alternative to the pub grub churned out along the Mile. Dishes such as wild Highland red deer with venison haggis and cranberry jus proves Scottish cuisine is about more than neeps and tatties. Lunchtime menus, which change day-to-day, also offer stimulating choices at reasonable prices.
Although Wedgwood is more spacious than is initially obvious, with a downstairs seating area, the restaurant is still fairly small – great for an intimate and unpretentious dining experience, but booking is recommended.
