Meal - Hotel Du Vin Bistro - Edinburgh
Overview
Serving classic French dishes, the Bistro at Hotel du Vin is tucked away off Bristo Place in Edinburgh’s atmospheric Old Town. It is a cosy, welcoming space with restored fireplaces, reclaimed floorboards and lots of wine merchant memorabilia.
Service is polished but informal and the sommelier is always happy to advise anyone in need of a little friendly guidance around the 200 plus bin list. The Bistro’s courtyard – complete with cigar bothy and heaters – is a hidden gem which is well worth seeking out.
Includes
Our evening includes two courses from a set menu with 1/2 bottle of house wine, service and Spice Host.
