One Square Brasserie

In the heart of Edinburgh Central, One Square Brasserie champions Scotland’s natural larder with menus that move with the seasons. The kitchen keeps its compass fixed on freshness, letting prime Scottish produce take the lead while nodding to broader European flavours. It is brasserie dining with a clear sense of place.

Starters hint at the kitchen’s playful precision: nduja arancini find lift from a hot honey and chili dip, while a caramelised shallot tart tatin layers Anster cheese and garlic cream beneath bitter leaves. Familiar profiles are reframed with Scottish ingredients, offering comfort and intrigue in equal measure.

Mains continue the theme. Beer battered haddock arrives with triple cooked chips, homemade tartare and garden peas, a city classic polished without pomp. Elsewhere, pot roasted guinea fowl is paired with creamed celeriac, cardamom charred leeks and an armagnac-soaked raisin jus. For more casual moments, there are pizzas from margherita with buffalo mozzarella and basil sugo to Italian sausage with charred onion and wild mushroom, plus the Sheraton beef burger and a classic club sandwich.

To finish, the Sheraton sticky toffee pudding leans into treacle and clotted cream indulgence, while an Atholl Brose cheesecake folds in Dalwhinnie whisky, heather honey and a bright rhubarb sorbet. There are also Tomás’s Treats for the sweet of tooth. Book in and let the seasons do the talking — appetite, squared.
