In Edinburgh we all love a new restaurant or cafe. Now residents and visitors can enjoy a fresh new morning menu and get their caffeine kick with a new brand of coffee straight from Europe’s very first ever coffee roaster at newly opened Dine Edinburgh at Saltire Court.
Following the official launch at the end of November, Edinburgh’s most exciting new brasserie, Dine with Stuart Muir has launched a gourmet morning menu designed as the perfect start to the day for local workers, shoppers and city visitors looking for a fresh morning option.
Set in the heart of Saltire Court above The Traverse Theatre, the brasserie breakfast menus will be served Monday – Saturday from 10am – 12 noon, and on Sundays from 11am to 12 noon and will be available to enjoy in the brasserie or to go.
A carefully crafted hot and cold drinks menu includes; Freshly pressed fruit smoothies with the finest yoghurt from Graham’s Dairies (£3.50) and a selection of coffees and fine teas.
The brasserie has become the very first venue in Edinburgh to serve Julius Meinl coffee. A pioneer of coffeehouse culture, Julius Meinl was the first professional roaster in Europe, and now Edinburgh residents can enjoy the Viennese premium, smooth roasted coffee at Dine.
Satisfying any breakfast appetite, the new food menu features a fresh selection of delicious bakes made daily in the Dine kitchen, such as Apple crumble muffins orFresh, warm fruit scones with Dine’s own Scottish plum jam (£2.50); as well as hot options including Toasted wholemeal, mushrooms in HP, tabasco tomatoes (£6.50), Chargrilled sourdough, smoked Orkney salmon, lemon crème fraiche (£7.50), and Dine Borders pork sausage, poached free range eggs, homemade baked beans (£7.00).
Executive chef Stuart Muir said: “We’re really lucky to be chosen as the first venue in the whole of the city to serve Julius Meinl’s incredible coffee. People are becoming very interested in the coffee they drink – us chefs drink plenty of coffee and we wanted to make sure we served only the very best to our customers.
“Our location in Saltire Court above The Traverse Theatre means the area is thriving from first thing in the morning to late night. Introducing our morning menu means we can help locals and visitors start their day with some tasty homemade classics with a twist and some truly premium coffees whether they want to grab and go, host a business breakfast meeting or enjoy a leisurely brunch at the weekends.“
