A fabulous place - we dined there when The Little Chartroom first opened. I 💚 small plates at Eleanore - looking forward to seeing refurb.
Maybe with less-high stools?
They were challenge for the short-legged amongst us.

Ask your MSPs to act for Scotland's wildlife!
As the Natural Environment Bill approaches its final stage, we have one last chance to make sure we get it right.
