These include fish, battered pork sausage, haggis , black pudding, white pudding suppers and a deep fried pizza crunch supper.
Landy's extensive menu also includes some twists on the traditional breaded or battered haddock, such as Cajun spiced haddock, lemon and herb baked haddock and vegan fish and chips, as well as more hearty dishes like steak pie, steak burger, haggis neeps and tatties, mac'n'cheese, and a daily changing homemade pie. For dessert, Landy's is catering to those tourists who won’t be able to find it in many other places, by serving the infamous deep fried Mars Bar. Vittoria Group Director, Alberto Crolla said: "The capital's lively Old Town is the ideal location to expand our restaurant business to new and existing customers.
“Following the enormous success of our sister restaurant, Bertie's on Victoria Street, Landy's provides dining comfort food at its finest. We want to recreate the nostalgic appeal of fish and chips on the beach or by the sea with classic chip shop dishes at the heart of the menu".
