• Sicilian • Edinburgh

Booked 3 times today

We are an authentic Italian wine café, proud to offer quality Sicilian wines and spuntini appetisers across the UK. In the spring of 2013 something extraordinary happened. Two Italian guys in their twenties met in Manchester to find out that they shared a unique passion; they both loved and missed, the Italian Aperitivo, the ritual of drinking, nibbling and relaxing after work. A daily occasion to share moments of happiness with friends and family. By the end of that very same year, Veeno was born: a place where everyone could enjoy great wines and the most authentic Spuntini – platters of meats, cheeses and other appetisers imported from strictly selected Italian producers. Our wines come from Caruso & Minini, our family vineyard back in Sicily where great-grandfather Antonio planted the first vines in the XIX century. Since then, we have been working hard to ensure that our quality and tradition could flow from the bottles to the glass in your hand.

From arriving to leaving our experience was fantastic. Food lovely, drink fantastic, waiting staff attentive. We had our food and the staff then came to say they had reserved us seats in the bar where we continued to have a few drinks relaxed and chatted. Lovely way to spend a Saturday afternoon coming up to Christmas.

Lovely, as always! Only one minor complaint though, main course was a tad on the cool side, needed to be piping hot, but apart from that, the standard was the usual high!

We found this to be a charming and indulgent experience for summer afternoon tea. The serving size was plenty (we had leftovers to take away) and they graciously allowed us to have more than seven different pots of teas! We stayed for nearly 2.5 hours with no sense of being rushed by the staff. Outstanding!
