Crolla’s Italian Kitchen is situated in an enviable trading location within ‘The Courtyard’ at the historic Eskmills venue in Musselburgh, East Lothian. Sitting close to the River Esk at the western edge of Musselburgh where it adjoins Edinburgh, there is easy access from both the Edinburgh City Bypass and the main A1.

Musselburgh is the largest settlement in East Lothian, on the coast of the Firth of Forth, 6 miles east of Edinburgh city centre. It boasts an ever-expanding population of around 22,000 and is linked to Scotland’s capital via the main A1 routing and also by its two railway stations.

The town of Musselburgh is famous for both Musselburgh Racecourse and Musselburgh Links Golf Course, acknowledged as the oldest continuously played golf course in the world.

This is an exceptional property with attractive entrance and fully glazed seating area to the rear. The main entrance leads into the first dining area with traditional tables and chairs, high tables and seating and well stocked bar. The rear of the property has the main dining area which is predominantly glazed, offering attractive views over the courtyard giving c.110 covers between these two areas. A shared car park is available just a few yards from the entrance.

Our client has owned and operated ‘Crolla’s Italian Kitchen’ since 2014 and has only reluctantly placed the business on the market to concentrate on other business ventures. Trading as a quality Italian restaurant, Crolla’s has won numerous local and national awards over the years highlighting the quality food and exceptional service that is offered here. The restaurant enjoys a tremendous local reputation and its unique trading location attracts customers from all over East Lothian, Midlothian and beyond.

The premises are in excellent condition throughout, offering c.110 covers internally and 47 in the courtyard making it suitable for continuing along the same lines or for an alternative cuisine offering.
