The Foodie Guide

We cater for the typical West-end mix of customers: tourists, families, musicians, students and staff from BBC Scotland. The décor is eclectic and modern, offering smart but casual dining in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Stravaigin has undergone a major refurbishment, making it even more friendly and inviting.

Our daily changing menu incorporates seasonal produce as it is available. House specialties include award-winning haggis, locally sourced meat, and "straight-from-the-boat" seafood.

EatScotland Says:

Stravaigin is a long-established favourite in the busy, west end, university area. The menu has a pan-european base, using fresh Scottish produce of a high standard, proudly promoted throughout the menu and prepared with imagination and flair.

Turkish steamed seabream, roast beetroot, mashed smoked aubergine and tomato salad, pomegranate bulgur wheat:
"A colourful presentation, with a tomato and pepper based puree spread on the fish, finely diced tomato blended with the aubergine puree, two slices of roasted beetroot, and with the bulgur wheat enhanced by a mirepoix of cucumber and tomato, an abundance of chopped parsley and bright pearls of pomegranate." "Carefully sourced ingredients, freshly prepared." "An absolutely delightful dish, with everything in perfect harmony. Individual big flavours, evenly balanced and, combined, presenting a sharp, sweet, crunchy mix."
