Reimagining the coastal chippy in the midst of Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh based Vittoria Group has today opened Landy’s Restaurant on the Royal Mile.
Landy’s is the hospitality group’s latest venture in the city having opened their first restaurant in 1970 in the Leith neighbourhood and will give diners the chance to experience proper fish and chips.
The 7000 sq.ft restaurant in the former Byron Burger site on 29-31 North Bridge Edinburgh offers an affordable menu that reinvents some traditional British ‘chip shop’ dishes and celebrates specialities along with contemporary twists on the chip shop experience and boasts several light options, all under ten pounds.
Inspired by memories of the class British seaside holiday, Landy’s serves up the perfect mix of salt and sass – from perfectly battered fish and chips to classic chip shop specials with a unique twist on Edinburgh’s famous chippy sauce.
The 200 cover restaurant set over two floors offers Scottish charm and British seaside nostalgia with fresh, flaky fish battered to crispy perfection, served golden with piping hot chips at the heart of the menu.
Other Chip shop classics on the menu include Battered Pork Sausage, Haggis, Black Pudding, White Pudding and a Deep Fried Pizza Crunch supper.
Landy’s extensive menu also includes some unique twists away from the traditional Breaded or Battered Haddock, such as Cajun Spiced Haddock, Lemon and Herb Baked Haddock and Vegan Fish and Chips, as well as more hearty dishes like Steak Pie, Steak Burger, Haggis Neeps and Tatties, Mac’n’Cheese, and a daily changing Homemade Pie. And for dessert, Landy’s Deep Fried Mars Bar – crispy on the outside, gooey on the inside, is a sweet treat that brings out the kid in all of us.
Vittoria Group Director, Alberto Crolla said: “The capital’s lively Old Town is the ideal location to expand our restaurant business to new and existing customers.
“Following the enormous success of our sister restaurant, Bertie’s on Victoria Street, Landy’s provides dining comfort food at its finest. We want to recreate the nostalgic appeal of fish and chips on the beach or by the sea with classic chip shop dishes at the heart of the menu”.
Landy’s eating area features a mix of navy and red designs, with ropes and anchors delicately interwoven throughout. The restaurant features seaside-themed decor and an open kitchen, providing diners with a fun theater-like dining experience.
Local design team Significant Others along with the main contractor Severinos were appointed by Vittoria Group to develop the £2 Million investment in Landy’s and 70 new jobs have been created with the the expansion of Vittoria Groups restaurant portfolio in Edinburgh and the Lothians.
