The Dome, Restaurant in New Town, Edinburgh, Scotland
The Dome is a restaurant housed in a former bank building in New Town featuring Corinthian columns, marble counters, and several dining areas beneath high ceilings. The Grill Room, Club Room, and Front Bar each create distinct spaces with ornate detailing and varied seating arrangements.
The building was constructed in 1847 as the headquarters of the Commercial Bank of Scotland and functioned as a bank for many decades. It underwent careful restoration and opened as a restaurant in 1996, preserving its original architectural character.
The Georgian Tea Room reflects Scottish hospitality traditions with its afternoon tea service featuring sandwiches and scones presented on tiered stands. These tea services remain a cherished part of how locals and visitors gather in the space.
The restaurant spans multiple distinct areas, each offering service from morning through evening with different menus and atmospheres. Visitors can choose which space suits their dining preference, whether seeking a quick coffee or a longer meal.
The original banking hall was transformed into the Grill Room and now functions as Edinburgh's largest city center dining space. This conversion demonstrates how commercial banking interiors found new life as public gathering places.
