Looking out onto the bustling Kinnoull Street, the Bothy prides itself on serving simple but delicious Scottish fare in a cosy Highland themed setting. Alongside the popular haggis, neeps and tatties, and beer battered Scottish haddock, there’s also plenty of non-traditional fare to enjoy."

The team here have event managers too, which means there’s a handily helpful process in place already to see you through your planning. Dishes on the set menus can be tailored to your preference and/ or budget but as an idea of style dishes that are menu mainstays are chicken liver parfait with chutney and toasted sourdough, and roasted sea bass with chickpea and chorizo stew and salsa verde."
