Edinburgh Branch

Life at RSA Edinburgh

The Branch meets regularly for lunch throughout the year at a venue either in the City of Edinburgh or at a location where there is good access by public transport. In addition, there are occasional outings to places of interest, again where access can be made by public transport.

RSA members regardless of Branch, may attend any of our ‘self-supporting‘ events which are publicised on this website (below) or in Contrail. (Note: many of the function venues do require advance reservations, your expression of interest in attending should therefore be made in advance, via the Branch official arranging the event)

The ’events‘ e-mailing is sent to Edinburgh Branch* members who have provided the RSA with an email contact and to other members on application. (* Edinburgh Branch now includes members formally listed under H&I).

You haven’t provided your email yet?

If you are a new member to the Edinburgh Branch, an existing member, (including WoS) who has not previously provided an email to the RSA, or you have changed your email, please advise the RSA at

The next Branch outing is a Summer lunch to be held at the Rustom (Indian) Restaurant, 2 Grosvenor St. Haymarket, Edinburgh, EH12 5EG, on Tuesday 01 July 2025, starting at 12:30

For those who wish to attend this outing, please advise the Branch via email:- admin@edinburghrsa.com no later than 12 noon on the 27 June.  

For information, The Rustom are currently offering a Business Lunch at £12.95. 

- See restaurant Website:- https://rustomrestaurant.co.uk/  

For those attending, please If at all possible, bring along some cash on the day. From past experiences at the Rustom, the restaurant is likely to offer our group only one bill to settle at the end of our meal.
