Michelin-acclaimed Scottish chef launches new summer menu on Edinburgh’s waterfront

Posted: 19th June 2026

One of Scotland’s top Michelin-acclaimed chefs has launched a new summer menu on Edinburgh’s waterfront at the Shore in Leith.

Chef Barry Bryson’s ‘Barry Fish’ is now one of just a handful of restaurants in the Scottish capital included in the Michelin Guide for Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

Barry opened the doors to his first independent fish restaurant in 2025. Since then, he has quickly established Barry Fish as one of the city’s most popular dining venues for local diners and visitors by showcasing the best fish and seafood from Scotland.

Barry Fish has also earned its place on The Good Food Guide’s UK-wide list of ‘100 Best Local Restaurants 2025’.

Diners can enjoy views directly into the open-plan working kitchen from the pass, as well as out over the Water of Leith from the comfort of the restaurant.

Big snack highlights of the new summer menu at Barry Fish include Berwick crab flan pâtissier, crème fraîche, apple and pickled celery; as well as smoked seabass rillettes, soused Orkney herring, radish, tartar and crackers.

New main dishes include hake a la meunière, buttered spinach, smoked tomatoes, capers and pomme purée; as well as whole lemon sole Veronique, green beans and braised fennel.

Firm favourites on the menu also include shelled half lobster with smoked fish agnolotti, brown butter sauce and pickled fennel; and Barry fish pastrami with aioli, capers and dried grapes.

People with a sweet tooth can also enjoy strawberry and vanilla baked custard tart; and dark chocolate ganache, olive oil and milk chocolate shortbread.
