The Riccarton Inn is a traditional pub and dining venue at 198 Lanark Road West on the western edge of Edinburgh. Its comfortable local atmosphere gives guests a place for a drink, a casual meal or a more substantial dinner built around seasonal pub cooking.
Starters combine familiar favourites with Scottish ingredients, from halloumi fries and soup of the day to Cullen skink made with smoked haddock, leek and potato. Smoked salmon and crayfish provides a lighter seafood opening with sweet chilli mayonnaise.
Beer battered haddock and chips, chicken and bacon burger and a mushroom and black bean burger cover the pub classics. Seasonal chef’s specials can include lamb, local fish or a creamy peppercorn chicken, allowing the kitchen to work with produce beyond the permanent favourites.
Sunday slow roasted beef brings roast potatoes, roots, braised cabbage and gravy to the table, while homemade desserts and Scottish tablet ice cream provide a comforting finish. The combination of regular standards and changing specials gives local diners useful variety across repeat visits.
