Films at Edinburgh Street Food
Edinburgh Street Food on Leith Street has an outdoor cinema showing a variety of films in July and August with more to come in September.
The 4 metre outdoor screen is sponsored by Lonkero a company which makes a version of Finland’s national long drink with gin, grapefruit and soda water as well as a pinch of pine, lime & twist of botanicals.
All films and live sports are free to watch at Edinburgh Street Food, where there are 50 Lonkero sponsored deck chairs (available on a first-come-first-served basis) and guests can order from 11+ street food vendors and 3 bars, from the comfort of their seat via QR code. Those aged 18+ might like to try a crisp pint of Lonkero, available at Edinburgh Street Food on draught, served over ice with a slice of grapefruit.
Andrew Marshall, co-founder of Edinburgh Street Food said: “ESF is proud to be a springboard for many independent food and drink businesses.
“Not only are we thrilled to add Lonkero to that mix, but conscious of the ever-increasing financial pressures on our customers, we were eager to offer a fun and free activity for people to enjoy this summer.”
