Little Picardy will serve up artisan coffee and pastries in the morning followed expertly crafted cocktails, local and international beers and wines, and bar snacks in the latter half of the day. A full food offering will launch in autumn of this year.
The new venue celebrated its official launch on Monday, August 12 which coincides with the Playhouse’s 95th birthday.

00:00Thank you for watching my video.
00:02Please subscribe to my channel.
00:04See you next time.
00:06Bye.
00:30We're really, really thrilled.
00:32So it's our first official day of being open
00:34with Little Piccadilly
00:36here at the Playhouse in Edinburgh.
00:38And what a gift it is for us as well,
00:40especially given it's our 95th anniversary.
00:42So, yeah, a wonderful birthday gift for us.
00:44We have people coming in
00:46across the week, last week,
00:48trying out the cocktails, the beers,
00:50the wines. We've had people trying
00:52the patisseries and the coffee.
00:54And they've all gone down on real treats.
00:56I think there's, the Norma
00:58is a particular favourite for people
01:00in terms of the cocktails, but of course
01:02there's a real wide offering there as well.
01:04In October, we'll have
01:06a small plates offer as well.
01:08So that will be available throughout the day.
01:10So you'll be able to grab something in the morning,
01:12the afternoon, the evening, to go alongside
01:14whatever you choose to drink.
01:16We're not here just for people coming to the Playhouse.
01:18We're very much a stand-alone bar.
01:20This was a bar before, and that's
01:22where we'll remain. So whilst we're associated
01:24with the Playhouse,
01:26we are the Playhouse running it.
01:28It's here for people every day, all day.
