We are proud of the welcoming atmosphere which radiates our bar and puts our customers at ease. This awarding winning atmosphere is thanks to our excellent hybrid staff and fresh Scottish food. Whether it’s your first visit to the Mercat bar or you’re one of our regulars’ you will be treated to exceptional service and a fantastic experience.

"I took over the reins’ at The Mercat bar in September 2005. Since the journey began I, and the Mercat team, have driven the business forward to the prominent establishment that’s recognised today. Chris Reid came on board in January 2006 to lead The Mercat’s bar and restaurant team and we have all worked together to transform The Mercat into the celebrated restaurant and bar it is today. We invite you to join us in the electric atmosphere of our exciting venue, in the bustling hive of Edinburgh’s West End.

I, and the rest of The Mercat team, look forward to welcoming you."
