A Wee Taste

I happened to come across this wee gem of a restaurant while visiting Edinburgh. What a find! My dining experience was so positive, I have actually been back twice in the same week, it's honestly that good. From the moment you step through the door, the cheery vibe is apparent. The owner Karly, could not have been more welcoming and attentive. The menu offers up an amazing assortment of charcuterie, and so much more. The drinks and food offerings are all top quality, one would be hard pressed to find better. This is definitely a restaurant you don't want to miss.

We’ve been in A Wee Taste lots of times now and it never disappoints! Beautifully presented grazing boards with lovely local produce; the scotch eggs are to die for too. We love coming here as the service is always top notch with such friendly staff who always go out their way to make you feel comfortable. The mocktail tinto de verano is superb! A definite recommendation for anyone who is after some nice wine, cocktails and a grazing board. Great atmosphere; perfect for casual dining and catching up with friends.

Great quality food, great atmosphere & lovely staff. I visited a wee taste for my birthday with some family. The staff were lovely and friendly & took time to chat us through the menu/ options: The food was amazing, great grazing board with an amazing selection of meat, cheese & extras (nuts, fresh fruit, pickles and crackers). The sourdough was great! Drinks were a good price with great non alcoholic options for the designated drivers. Definitely worth a visit, we will be back.

Just perfect!!! Found this place after walking away from many tourist spots. This was literally exactly what we were looking for after an afternoon of walking and popping into shops. Spent the better part of 2 hours with an old friend laughing and enjoying each others company over the most beautiful plate of charcuterie I’ve ever seen. The proprietor was kind and welcoming, sharing her knowledge of wine and locally sourced meats and cheeses with us in her kind demeanor. The plate overflowed with delicious and exciting bites and the portions left my friend and I feeling well fed. I would recommend this charmingly adorable place to anyone looking to enjoy an afternoon or evening meal in Scotland’s city center.

What an experience! My friend and I had been walking for an hour, looking for “just the right spot.” We found it! We felt welcomed immediately by our lovely server, who was able to answer all of our questions about the wine list. The owner of Wee Taste took time to chat with us before retreating to the kitchen to put together a GORGEOUS and plentiful charcuterie board (see photo) that looked as good as it tasted… edible flowers and all. I would HIGHLY recommend for a first date, a quick, delicious bite, or a slow afternoon with an old friend.

Visited as a walk in and I was greeted with a very warm welcome! Karly is lovely, accommodating and super friendly, kind and chatty, as are the rest of her wonderful small team. The boards look expert, fantastic, very colourful and I love the addition of edible flowers. All the olives, nuts, cheese, bread, beer etc. are of the highest quality and from local suppliers as much as possible. I very much enjoyed my Raspberry gin cocktail which was so lovingly made. I would strongly recommend A Wee Taste as the go to place in Edinburgh for Grazing Boards, you won't find any better. 5 stars experience, I will be returning!

Wow wow wow! The best wine and brunch in Edinbrugh. I recently held my birthday brunch at a Wee Taste and the whole experience from start to finish was second to none. With her expert knowledge Karly even helped me select which wines to serve in advance. The atmosphere, incredible wine and delicious food along with Karlys great team meant I had a birthday brunch I would never forget. If you love wine, stunning food and are considering a private function I couldn’t more highly recommend! My friends and I are now regulars having discovered this true Edinbrugh hidden secret.

A Wee Taste is a fabulous local spot in Edinburgh! Their wines are wonderful, a varied selection which my friend and I tried a couple of. Love the wine glasses especially, very elegant. I also had a vegan platter to eat – it's really hard to find a good quality version of this anywhere, normally the cheeses and additional items are not very well thought out. But here, it was incredible!!!! Some gorgeous cashew cheeses, the truffled one was my favourite. As well as the smorgasbord of fresh fruit, nuts, dried fruits, sourdough bread, and pickled things (among plenty more) Perello olives were served on the platter as standard – an excellent touch. I was highly impressed with the quality of the food, as a vegan especially (and my friend loved his cheese and meats platter too). Service was impeccable, the staff are all very friendly and certainly know their stuff about the menu and the wines. The decor was very cute too :) We will be back soon. Thank you!
