Chef Tyler King will open a modern Scottish restaurant within The Bridge Inn in Edinburgh this month.

Called Bridge 15, it will open on 15 March at The Bridge Inn, which is located on the banks of the Union Canal in Ratho, seven miles west of the Edinburgh city centre.

The 28-year-old chef was previously senior sous chef at Michelin-starred restaurant Prism in Berlin.  Before moving to Germany, Tyler worked at some of Scotland’s best restaurants including Number One at The Balmoral and Castle Terrace.

Bridge 15 will showcase Scottish produce with dishes on the launch menu to include an Arbroath smokie doughnut, spring onion emulsion; mushroom ravioli egg yolk pureé with mushroom broth, black garlic, puffed rice; monkfish mussel XO with burnt leek, pine nut, vermouth sauce; and Crowdie cheesecake mousse rhubarb and toasted oats.

“I always knew I wanted to come back to Scotland to open a restaurant and showcase the top-quality produce we have here. I am ecstatic to be part of such an iconic Edinburgh gastropub and l am looking forward to bringing something new to the table for our guests,” he says.

“The menus at Bridge 15 at The Bridge Inn will be constantly evolving, with daily specials changing depending on what we receive from local suppliers. Being able to work on dishes with vegetables and pork sourced from the pub’s own garden is phenomenal.”

Tyler will also oversee the bar menu at The Bridge Inn, with dishes to include a daily changing pie and a brand-new all-day roast menu.

The Bridge Inn was recently named Gastropub of the Year at the Scottish Licenced Trade News  wards and also at the Edinburgh Restaurant Awards in 2019. It was named AA’s Pub of the Year for Scotland in 2014 and was the Scottish winner and UK runner-up in the Great British Pub Awards.
