The Radford family, which opened the Timberyard restaurant in 2012, won its Michelin star in 2023.
The new opening expands their gastronomic footprint in Edinburgh. The new venture is housed in one of the city’s earliest public houses, dating back to the 1800s.
The location provides a two-tiered dining space. The ground floor features a 40-cover wine bar, while the first floor houses a dining room with seven tables.
Jo Radford was quoted by The Caterer as saying: “With a first Michelin star under our belts at Timberyard and the launch of our new restaurant and wine bar at Montrose, 2024 looks set to be a really exciting year for our entire team.
