Laila Edinburgh:
Brunch & Dinner Perfection

ABOUT US

Laila Edinburgh was born out of a shared vision during lockdown—what began as an idea between two passionate local women quickly grew into one of Edinburgh’s most beloved brunch and dinner destinations.

Founded by Sabrina, a skilled chef with experience as a private chef in Atlanta and a background in marketing, hospitality, and leadership, and Lisa, a creative business mind with over 15 years of experience, Laila is a celebration of flavour, community, and authenticity. The name itself holds personal meaning, chosen in honour of Lisa’s daughter.

At the heart of Laila is a commitment to quality, creativity, and local love. Every dish is prepared in-house from scratch, using free-range eggs, fresh Scottish produce, and artisanal ingredients sourced from trusted local suppliers. From the vibrant dishes to the warm, inviting atmosphere, Laila reflects the perfect blend of both founders’ strengths.

As a proud women-led business, Laila continues to set a new standard in Edinburgh’s dining scene—serving unforgettable food in a space filled with heart, soul, and purpose.
