As the season turns, so too does the culinary narrative at Prestonfield House. Spring signals renewal, and nowhere is that more evident than at Rhubarb, the opulent, atmospheric restaurant at the heart of Edinburgh’s most indulgent hideaway.
The arrival of the new spring menu marks a celebration of Scotland’s finest seasonal ingredients, brought to life with creative flair and a touch of theatre. From the refined elegance of the Á La Carte selection to the indulgent Five-Course Tasting Menu and the flavourful Two-Course Spring Lunchtime option, each offering captures the essence of the season.
A thoughtfully crafted vegan and vegetarian menu also ensures every guest experiences the same level of gourmet excellence.
This season’s highlights include a delicate lapsang souchong-cured sea trout to start, followed by a rich and tender Tweeddale Angus beef feather blade en croûte and a zesty lemon tart paired with rhubarb and ginger sorbet for a perfectly balanced finale.
For those in search of an experience steeped in elegance and exclusivity, Prestonfield House’s historic private dining rooms promise an unforgettable setting to match the exquisite cuisine.
Whether it’s an intimate rendezvous in the opulent Salon Privee, designed for just two guests, or a lavish celebration in the richly adorned Stuart Room, the timeless Italian Room, or the enchanting Chinoiserie Garden Room, accommodating up to fifty guests, each space offers its distinct charm and character.
At Rhubarb, a menu as fresh, vibrant and stylish as its surroundings, served in the dramatic Regency splendour of one of Edinburgh’s most iconic dining destinations, will be the highlight of the season.
