Edinburgh restaurants: Scran give sneak peak of Cockburn Street bistro after makeover and share reopening date

The team at Scran say they are ‘absolutely buzzing’ for diners to see their new design

One of Edinburgh's best-loved bistros has announced its reopening date following a major refurbishment – and given a sneak-peak at how things are coming along.

Scran, which is located in The Arcade, a covered passage that connects North Bridge to Cockburn Street, has been closed for nearly a month.

The eaterie, which is a firm favourite with foodies, is set to re-open on Friday, February 3, following the closure at the beginning of January.
