“Forage and Chatter has traded since 2016 from this city centre location offering c.170 sq m (c. 1,800 sq ft) in total over lower street level (i.e. basement with conservatory) on the corner of Alva Street and Queensferry Street. The current business trades at very healthy levels post-Covid and enjoys a strong presence on social media with many 5 star reviews and lets its food speak for itself in terms of exposure - and is rated as one of Edinburgh's 'hidden culinary treasures.

The listing adds: “The business will likely be sold without the current branding and I.P. unless any new operator wishes to consider that option.”
