relaxed and laid back atmosphere combined with impressive food. Encouraging young student talent while eating a lovely menu - can you spend a better evening?"

Bite Magazine (2015)

The best-value Scottish restaurant I’ve come across in my travels. Plenty of places provide excellent value for money, but none of them come close to The Apprentice in Edinburgh’s Granton district."
