St James Quarter: Four new brands set to open this month

Edinburgh’s St James Quarter has announced a further four new openings taking place this month.

French fashion retailer The Kooples and global skin care brand Aesop are both joining the 1.7 million sq ft city centre development at the end of the month.

As well as this, local independent Maki & Ramen and Bonnie & Wild have both opened their doors, adding more options to The Quarter.

Bonnie & Wild is Scotland’s largest single food and drink site that offers a variety of locally sourced produce, served by some of Scotland s best restaurants and award-winning chefs.

Four more outlets will open in the St James Quarter in July.

Maki & Ramen, which offers authentic Japanese dishes and modern interiors, includes a large cherry blossom tree. There’s also a brand-new cocktail menu exclusive to St James Quarter customers.

The Kooples, known for their rock-chic and contemporary apparel, will open on July 23, followed by Aesop, which will open its second Edinburgh store on July 30.

Nick Peel, managing director at St James Quarter, said: “We’re delighted to be announcing a further four retailers who are opening their doors this month, two of which are allowing us to extend our already incredible food and beverage offering within the Quarter.

"Our goal is to provide visitors with an enjoyable and memorable experience with something new to see, do, and experience every time they come back to The Quarter.

“Bonnie & Wild, Maki & Ramen, The Kooples and Aesop are four incredible brands that each have something different and unique to offer, and I look forward to seeing them thrive over the coming months.”
