Boutique hotel Malmaison Edinburgh finds its home in a beautiful, grand building overlooking Leith’s scenic waterfront. The Chez Mal Brasserie and Bar (the on-site restaurant at Malmaison Edinburgh) is the perfect place to relax away from the hustle and bustle of the city, while being within easy reach of popular tourist attractions like Edinburgh Castle.
The interiors at Chez Mal Brasserie feature exposed brick walls, bright neon lights and red leather booths as well as an outdoor dining area. The menu fuses British brasserie cuisine with French flavours and operates as an all-day dining affair, so that you can grab a full breakfast before a day of sightseeing or unwind with a late-night bar snack at the end of a busy day.
The breakfast menu features both hot and cold options, like eggs royale and yogurt with berry compote. If you fancy a boozy brunch, sip on your choice of Prosecco, Aperol Spritz, Mimosas or Cruzcampo and tuck into one of the signature mains. Popular options include chicken Milanese, flat iron steak with fries and the Mal burger with bacon, cheese and relish.
The a la carte menu offers a wider selection, including risotto primavera and poached Loch Duart salmon. To begin, starters might include creamy spiced sweetcorn soup and buffalo chicken thighs, while desserts such as pineapple carpaccio and strawberry cheesecake round off your meal on an indulgent note. Little ones can pick from a thoughtful kids’ menu, with modified options from breakfast through to dinner. While for special occasions, Malmasion offers an elegant afternoon tea complete with signature savouries, sweets and scones, as well as the option for fizz or a cocktail.
Whether you’re a hotel guest or a tourist, Malmaison Edinburgh is a great place for a delicious bite to eat, morning, noon or night.
