In a remarkable achievement for Scottish cuisine, Edinbane Lodge, located in the picturesque village of Edinbane on the Isle of Skye, has been named one of the best restaurants in the world. This recognition comes from La Liste, a prestigious global guide that ranks the finest dining establishments based on a comprehensive analysis of reviews, publications, and guidebooks.
La Liste is renowned for its rigorous selection process, compiling data from thousands of sources to create a definitive ranking of restaurants, pastry shops, and hotels.
Edinbane Lodge achieved an impressive score of 89.5 out of 100, marking a significant increase of 3.5 points from the previous year. This score not only places Edinbane Lodge among the top 500 restaurants globally but also highlights its status as one of only eight Scottish restaurants to make the list.
The inclusion of Edinbane Lodge on La Liste is a testament to the rich culinary landscape of Scotland.
Other notable Scottish establishments that made the cut include Glenturret Lalique in Crieff, Andrew Fairlie in Auchterarder, and The Kitchin in Edinburgh. Each of these restaurants showcases the diverse and high-quality offerings available in Scotland, contributing to the country’s growing reputation as a culinary destination.
Edinbane Lodge has undergone a remarkable transformation since chef Calum Montgomery and his family purchased the 16th-century derelict hunting lodge in 2017. With a vision to create a unique dining experience, they have successfully turned the lodge into a restaurant and accommodation that attracts food enthusiasts from around the world. Under Montgomery’s leadership, the restaurant has also earned four AA Rosettes, a prestigious accolade that underscores its commitment to culinary excellence.
Expressing his excitement about the recognition, Montgomery stated, “My mind is blown. A score of 89.5 is incredible. To be in La Liste at all is insane, I am hugely honoured.” He further emphasized the pride he feels for his team and their achievements, noting that being ranked among the top two restaurants in Scotland and 19th in the UK is a remarkable accomplishment.
