Cask & Vine

On Edinburgh’s bustling Royal Mile, Cask and Vine is a cosy, elegant haven for whisky and wine enthusiasts. With over 200 whiskies and more than 100 wines, it invites lingering conversation, measured sips and unhurried grazing in an intimate setting that suits both locals and travellers exploring the city’s landmarks.

The kitchen thinks in small plates designed to flatter the glass. Sicilian meat ragu arancini glossed with tomato pesto and Parmigiano Reggiano, and haggis bonbons with whisky mayonnaise, nod to a Scottish heart with Mediterranean leanings. From the sea come Arroyabe Bonito del Norte tuna in olive oil and Galician mussels in escabeche, while generous boards bring together Great Glen Scottish pork salami and Arturo Sánchez chorizo with Connage Dairy Clava Brie and Vega Mancha cured Manchego Dop. ArteMonte wild boar pâté and La Chinata ibérico pork pâté with cherries, Gordal olives and salted Catalan almonds, plus breads, oils, balsamic and oatcakes complete the spread.

Whether settling in for a late-afternoon tasting or a leisurely evening, Cask and Vine pairs considered pours with comforting, characterful flavours. Make your way to the Mile, take a seat, and let the cask meet the vine—one small plate and one sip at a time.
