Barry Fish

We are very happy and proud to be nominated for best newcomer at the 2026 - in amongst some friends and in great company. Wish us well for the award ceremony later this month❤️

Heading into winter, we are very excited to share our special New Year’s Eve Hogmanay menu as well as our casual New Year’s Day brunch menu- and like many places our opening hours will change a little bit after the 23rd of Dec so here are our opening hours up until January 4th 2026! Spaces for Hogmanay are now pretty limited but we have a earlier and a later sitting for our feast of the seven fishes - we anticipate being fairly busy on New Year’s Day, but you never know if you fancy a walk in we might be able to accommodate you, but probably best for the next few weeks to book ahead! Looking forward to getting the decorations and lights up at the restaurant in the next few weeks, our à la carte menu will run as normal on all other dates with a couple of seasonal specials and cocktails. Our first Christmas at Barry Fish and oh what a year ❤️ 🎄

Barry and the team cannot wait to welcome you all to the restaurant this winter. Expect all the things you already love and enjoy about Barry Fish, come with your friends and loved ones but we cannot accommodate any large group bookings which means that your ambience, meal and service experience with us are kept high. Raise a glass with us, we are nothing without you all X !

Almost… @barryfishrestaurant re-opens this Friday at noon and we cannae wait to see you all after our wee break for holidays, Autumn 🍂 always goes a little too fast for my liking, all the colours changing, the air and the light shifts yet maybe the best time of year to walk and explore in my opinion and putting into the dishes and onto the plates some of those senses really underpins it so much more for me. We have lots to enjoy ahead of *h**st*as so let’s not rush eh 😉 Team are rested, I’ve got a tan for at least another 6 days so let’s get crack on ❤️ 🎣 #barryfishedinburgh #timetoopen #backopenfriday #getbooking #autumn #leithrestaurants #theshoreleith #proudchef #scottishchef #edinburghchef #updates #comesayhello
