Duck & Waffle Edinburgh is the critically-acclaimed brand’s first UK venture outside of London, located within the St James Quarter in the heart of the Scottish capital.
The venue merges dynamic interiors, unrivalled hospitality, and mouth-watering signature fare to create an unforgettable ‘gastro diner’ experience.
The restaurant design features intrigue at every turn. The imaginative 8400 square foot space, presents a host of inviting dining and drinking experiences; from the theatrical main dining room, the energetic chef counters and its signature 360-degree walk-around bar to the 32-seat terrace overlooking Register Square and the two individually designed private dining rooms; The Whisky Room with its charred timber walls, rich amber tones and copper accents, and The Nest, with its feather and lace chandeliers and colourful nod to the golden duck bill - reflected through yellow upholstery.
Taking the DNA of the original location, subtle nods to the Scottish vernacular are woven throughout the restaurant, seen in abstracted tartans and indigenous materials from locally-produced porcelain floor tiles to handsome copper finishes – an ode to Scotch stills.
