Fancy A Bite?

At the heart of The Bass & Barrel, our restaurant is all about relaxed dining, great produce and food you’ll want to come back for. From easy lunches and midweek catch-ups to dinner with friends and special occasions, expect familiar favourites, seasonal dishes, and plenty of big flavours.

Whether you’re local to North Berwick or staying with us for a few nights, pull up a chair and make yourself at home.

Opening Tuesday 20th October – bookings for our restaurant will open soon.

Your New Local

The pub is made for the everyday moments that usually turn into the best ones. A quick pint that becomes another round. Coffee after a coastal walk. Friday drinks with friends. And a quiet seat with a good bottle of wine.

Behind the bar you’ll find ice cold beer, carefully chosen wines, classic serves and perfectly poured cocktails – plus a warm welcome for our favourite four-legged friends.

Opening Tuesday 20th October.

Outdoor Dining & Drinks

When the lovely Scottish sunshine makes an appearance, you can join us on our stylish outdoor terrace! Whether you’re looking for a bite to eat in the sun or a spot for a delicious morning coffee, our terrace will provide the perfect place for a little Al Fresco dining.

Coming soon!

Food & Drink

From sharing plates and prime Scotch steaks to modern takes on the classics and seasonal favourites, our menus celebrate quality Scottish produce throughout.

And when it comes to drinks, we have something for everyone. Great beers, wine by the glass, perfectly crafted cocktails and delicious alcohol-free serves – whatever you’re drinking, we’ll make sure it’s a good one.

We’re putting the finishing touches on our menus and can’t wait to share them soon!

Let's Celebrate

From birthday dinners and family get-togethers to work celebrations and long-overdue catch-ups, The Bass & Barrel is made for bringing people together over really good food and drinks.

Tell us what you’re planning and we’ll help make it feel easy, relaxed and well looked after.
