The Scotch Malt Whisky Society

Private Dining

No half measures, and that includes fine dining

Invite your guests to dine at The Scotch Malt Whisky Society in Edinburgh or London and you will find our passion for the best things in life extends to delectable food and drink.

Our head chef, James Freeman, says: “My aim is to ensure the Society’s reputation for fine food and wine at private events is on a par with the quality of our world-famous single cask whisky. It’s a challenge we all relish every day!”

Every ingredient is meticulously sourced, impeccably prepared and imaginatively combined to create unique and ever-changing seasonal menus.

Private dining in Edinburgh and London

We cater for buffets, canapés, light lunches and formal fine dining – carefully tailored to match the style of your event. Whether it’s business or pleasure. In Edinburgh or London.

And what better accompaniment to fine food than the world’s finest single malt whisky? Here at the Society we can expertly match single malts to your meal, for an unforgettable sensory experience. Or we can incorporate a private tutored whisky tasting before or after you dine.

Our events team is on hand to craft every aspect of your private dining event. From start to finish, our service is welcoming yet professional; friendly yet discreet.

Distinctive dining rooms

Added to all that, you and your guests will enjoy the distinctive atmosphere of our celebrated private dining rooms. From romantic intimacy and classical elegance at Edinburgh’s 28 Queen Street, to contemporary chic at London’s 19 Greville Street and Scottish luxury at The Vaults in Leith, choose the room to match your event. Or perhaps you will create an event to match your favourite room!
