Uber Eats Restaurant of the Year Awards 2025: Here are the 10 Scottish restaurants shortlisted for the £100,000 prize
For the fourth year in a row, Uber Eats is holding its Restaurant of the Year Awards - and there are 10 Scottish businesses in the running.
They all have a chance of winning the £100,000 main prize, with other awards on offer include the Women in Food Award, the Climate Impact Award, the Healthy Eats Award, the Social Impact Award and the Next Gen Award.
All finalists will also receive a £5,000 prize and a tailored support package from Uber Eats to help boost their business.
Joining the judging panel are some of the most recognisable names in food culture today: Levi Roots, famed entrepreneur and musician; Clodagh McKenna, Irish celebrity chef and TV host; and last year's standout winner Natty Crutchfield, whose restaurant went from cult hit to national fame.
Matthew Price, General Manager of Uber Eats UK, Ireland and Northern Europe, said: 'The Restaurant of the Year Awards are not just celebrating restaurants, we're investing in the future of food. The new Next Gen Trailblazer Award is a bold step in backing the young innovators who are rewriting the rules of hospitality'.
The awards ceremony will take place later this year at Here @ Outernet in London, where all regional winners and trailblazers will gather to celebrate their achievements, alongside media, industry leaders and special guests.
Here are the 10 shortlisted Scottish restaurants.
