Edinburgh is set to have another exciting foodie spot added to its extensive dining venues portfolio with a new restaurant, bar and bakery coming to Edinburgh Park.
Settling into a new futuristic building at 1 New Park Square powered solely by renewable energy, Patina is expected to welcome its first customers in October after a year of building and designing.
The team behind Patina is inspired to bring mouthwatering treats to the capital and deliver them along with top-class performances. They are now looking for artists keen to perform at the venue.

Now, only a month from the opening, the team said, reflecting on the fine job they have done with the venue: "When the doors are finally open, we will be programming film and music events, and I really wanted the restaurant to reflect film in the interior.
"A lot of the design influences have come from film. The grandeur of the back bar was inspired by the intense scale of the film Dune. The colours came from futuristic scenes from Blade Runner and the surrealism of Lynch.
"It's not really important where the influences come from, and sometimes you rationalise things afterwards. In the moment, you're just having fun making something new and collaborative.

At the end of the day, the only thing that matters is people having a wicked time in your bar. The rest really isn't important."
The building where the new venue is located overlooks a new public square designed by Gross Max Architects and is the first completed building in the Dixon Jones-led masterplan for Parabola, the new reinvented space to the west of the city.
