New restaurant opens in ‘fantastic' Scottish city suburb
Herringbone Barnton is the fourth site to be opened under the brand by family-owned hospitality group Buzzworks, joining sister venues in Goldenacre, Abbeyhill and North Berwick. Chris Robinson, general manager of Herringbone Barnton, said: 'We're so excited to be opening our doors here in Barnton – it's such a fantastic community, and we really feel we're bringing something special to the area. 'The venue looks incredible, our team has been training hard and is full of energy, and we just can't wait to welcome everyone in. 'There's a real buzz about the place already, and it's been amazing to see how excited people are to have a Herringbone on their doorstep. 'We've poured a lot of love into every detail, from the menu to the interiors, and we hope our guests are going to feel that from the moment they walk in.' Food will be served from 9am daily, with full breakfasts, coffees, breakfast bowls, toasted croissants, avocado on toast, and much more available. Mr Robinson also said: 'Whether you're stopping in for a laid-back brunch, catching up over dinner with friends, or enjoying a relaxed drink at the bar, there's truly something for everyone. 'We're here to be a neighbourhood favourite, and we can't wait for the locals to come in and make it their own.' Aviva 'firmly on track' to buy Glasgow employer Direct Line Insurance giant Aviva has declared its £3.7 billion takeover of Direct Line is 'firmly on track' as it told the City that it has 'got off to a great start in 2025'. Aviva reported a nine per cent rise in general premiums to £2.9bn for the first quarter yesterday, amid 'strong performances' in personal and commercial insurance. General insurance premiums in the UK and Ireland were up by 12% to £2bn, with 8% growth in personal lines and 15% in commercial, reflecting new business wins and the £242 million acquisition of Probitas. The latter paved the way for Aviva to re-enter the Lloyds market. The company also reported net flows of £2.3bn into its wealth business compared with £2.7bn in the first quarter of 2024, as the growth of its investment platform was more than offset by the outflow from a large workplace scheme which switched to another provider.

'We've poured a lot of love into every detail, from the menu to the interiors, and we hope our guests are going to feel that from the moment they walk in.' The food menu has been crafted around daytime favourites, vibrant evening plates and gourmet burgers – all prepared fresh daily – and, for the first time at a Herringbone venue, the team will serve up handmade, sourdough pizzas. Food will be served from 9am daily, with full breakfasts, coffees, breakfast bowls, toasted croissants, avocado on toast, and much more available.
