Champagne Lounge
A champagne table with panoramic views across Edinburgh. The stage is set for you to drink-in the high life.
Where better to set bubbles and hearts soaring while sipping our signature Nor’ Royale champagne cocktail?
From independent growers to prestigious Champagne houses, the table and views know no bounds. You can enjoy much of our enviable fizz list by the glass or bottle.
Only the finest spirits make it to our gantry — a curated showcase of Scotland’s best distillers. Even our house draught beer raises the bar, brewed exclusively with barley from the Champagne region.
Bubbles at breakfast?
There’s nowhere better to watch the cityscape sparkle into life, accompanied by, if you so desire, a choice of champagne.
With a spread to suit all appetites, from lush fruit to freshly baked, all-butter pastries and artisan bread, as well as cooked-to-order dishes, breakfast isn’t complete without a carefully sourced, locally roasted coffee or our luxury choice of teas.

Our Namesake
The ancient Nor’ Loch is steeped in the history of Edinburgh. Centuries ago it sat in front of Market Street at the foot of the Castle rock, now occupied by Princes Street Gardens, and was part of the natural defences of the old town to hinder invaders. Inspired by this historic icon Nor’ Loft now takes its place as part of the city’s Old Town character.
