Mitchell's St Andrews

Deli by day

The deli counter stocks artisan breads and cakes, Scottish cheeses, preserves, craft spirits and a short list of wines, so it is a useful stop for a picnic or a gift to take home. Most of what is on the shelves comes from the same small producers that supply the kitchen. The building's past as a butcher's gives the dining room a straightforward, shopfront feel at street level.

From brunch to dinner

Mornings are about unhurried brunch; afternoons about hot drinks and something sweet, with a sharing board of sandwiches, scones and cakes if you want a lighter afternoon tea. In the evening the menu turns to hearty, seasonal plates. As well as the main restaurant there is a separate space, The Hide.

Location and neighbours

Mitchell's sits next door to its sister restaurant Forgan's on Market Street, in the middle of town. Holy Trinity Church and South Street's shops are a short walk away, and the West Sands are around ten minutes on foot. There is also a Mitchell's in Broughty Ferry, near Dundee. Market Street is one of the town's three medieval main streets, so you are well placed for the shops and the university quarter.
