Welcome to the Taste Café and Delicatessen

Here you will discover a wonderful array of delicious foods and wines in the beautiful setting of historic Linlithgow, near Edinburgh. Taste is set in the building of a former bakery which centuries ago served the kings and queens of Linlithgow palace, and Taste continues the tradition of fine quality food and drink fit for royalty to this day.

Whether you’re coming in for coffee to go, breakfast on the run, lunch with friends or a leisurely afternoon tea, Taste has a great menu of food and drink to tempt you. Dishes are prepared using fresh produce, much of which comes from our own deli.  Relax on our comfortable sofas in front of the old baker’s oven and enjoy a cup of coffee, read, surf the net with WiFi or chat with friends. Children are welcome and we have plenty of room for buggies and books and crayons to keep the little ones occupied.

Taste Deli’s shelves are filled with delectable products ranging from spices and sauces to jams, marmalades, chocolates and sweets from both local and international sources. Our counters are a treasure trove of mouth-watering foods, perfect for entertaining or as a tasty treat for you.

Thomas Johnston Quality Butchers

established in 1861 by the Great-Grandfather of the present day business partnership - Richard and Graeme Johnston. The original Thomas Johnston was succeeded by his sons Thomas and Alex, and Alex's sons Thomas and Richard, and now Richard's sons, Richard and Graeme. For the past 145 years the business prospered in Falkirk, Brightons, Dunfermline, Abbeyview and Oakley, as well as a shop in Airdrie trading as "Fergusons of Airdrie"

The hallmark of each and every business is quality. This was borne out when in 1999 at the Dorchester Hotel in London, sponsored by the Meat Trade Journal, Thomas Johnston won the Top Shop Award for Scotland's Best Butchers shop and the same year won the Top Shop Award for Britain's Best Small Butchers Shop.

Since 1861, first class cattle have been bought on the hoof at local markets, primarily Falkirk and Stirling. One of the criteria in our family business is "buy the best" making it easier to sell, giving the saying "well bought, half sold" and so has resulted in the firm winning many awards including:

Gold Award - Steak Pie
Gold Award - Scotch Pie
Gold Award - Haggis
Gold Award 2004 - Bridie
Gold Award - Beef Burger
Gold Award - Beef Sausage
Gold Award - Pork Sausage
Central Scotland Best Lorne Sausage
Central Scotland Best Pork Sausage 2002
Central Scotland Best Beef Sausage 2004
Best Sausage Rolls for Scotland 2010
