The Ship on the Shore was runner-up in the ‘Best Foodie Street’ category, in competition with various other streets in the UK. Voting was carried out by a specialist Panel, comprising of VisitBritain and various professionals in the food industry.

We’d like to say congratulations to everyone else on The Shore and hope we can all make improvements and perhaps take it to the next stage and win the award in 2011.

Thanks to everyone who came along to our opening night on the 2nd of February – it was a great night and we hope to see you again soon. We’ve been getting reports that our Bloody Mary Oyster Shot went down awfully well…

If you missed our opening night, why not come along and sample both the visual delights (Davy’s Paintings!) and our delicious seafood and accompanying range of Champagne.

Our approach is simple really. We offer the finest ingredients, passionately prepared and expertly presented. When the sun shines, our delicious food can be served outside, on our shorefront setting beside the water of Leith. When it doesn’t, our wood panelled, candle-lit oasis of calm awaits you.

Whether it’s just a drink and a light lunch you’re after, or our luxury seafood ‘orgy’, accompanied by our own Champagne, The Ship offers informal, understated excellence.

We aim to supply Scotland’s best seafood dining experience.
