The Good Food Guide has revealed some of the longest-standing restaurants in Scotland in a bid to highlight the spots that have stood the test of time.

Sharing the new list, which features eateries in spots like London and Oxfordshire, the prestigious guide said: "The Guide has seen many restaurants come and go in its seven decades. And in a year that is proving to be a challenging one for the hospitality industry, with a raft of independent restaurant closures, we’ve taken a look at those who have stayed the course with tenacity.

"We’ve highlighted current Guide-listed restaurants that have been doing business for 20 years or more.

"Qualification for this list is that the restaurant has had the same owner/chef since opening, or has been passed down through the same family."
