EXPLORE OUR SEAFOOD
For over 30 years, Alandas has been a family-run celebration of Scotland’s finest produce. What began in 1991 as a passion project has grown into a multi-award-winning name, known for handcrafted, small-batch gelato and freshly prepared seafood.

Rooted in tradition, the business is still run by the same family today, who are the driving force behind Alandas. With a passion to share the taste of home with the community.

Rooted in Scotland, inspired by local ingredients

From the shores of East Lothian, to the heart of Scotland’s food scene, we’re committed to showcasing the best of what our country has to offer, with our traditional fish and chips, and the best gelato. Wherever possible, we source locally, supporting Scottish producers and bringing the freshest ingredients to our menus.

“This bright, brash, shiny ice cream parlour at the end of town features young staff who love the ice cream as much as we do. Flavours vary but the quality does not!”

Why choose Alandas
