Pacific Building has begun work on a comprehensive makeover of one of the most popular family restaurants in east central Scotland.

The four-week programme will see the Toby Carvery Lauriston Farm in Edinburgh reopen on March 7, with a sparkling new look to appeal to regular and new diners.

The project commenced with a two-week "soft-close", to be followed by a full shutdown from Monday, February 24, 2020.

It is part of the massive stable of restaurants and bars run by Mitchells & Butlers, whose brands include All Bar One, Vintage Inns, Harvester, O'Neill's, Nicholson's and Miller & Carter.

The Toby Lauriston Farm is just a 12-minute drive from Exit 1 on the M8 and located within easy reach of the Muirhouse, Cramond and Barnton areas of the city.
