The M&S Food store at Edinburgh Waverley Station reopened to passengers today (Tuesday 11 February 2025) following a complete transformation by food travel experts SSP Group.
Located in the station’s booking hall, the refreshed store has been given a new look for passengers grabbing a quick bite for their journey or picking up dinner on their way home.
Customers can choose from M&S favourites including a wide range of Food on the Move sandwiches, salads, snacks and drinks. There’s also a comprehensive selection of deli options and tasty pizzas alongside some local favourites including haggis, black pudding, and all butter Scottish shortbread.
Edinburgh Waverley is the first of several M&S Food store upgrades planned for SSP at Scottish travel hubs in 2025. SSP operates 55 M&S Food stores across the UK, and the revamps will deliver quality, value and convenience for passengers at every stage of their journey.
“It’s great to see our brighter, fresher and modernised store now open at Edinburgh Waverley Station which will provide passengers with a much-improved shopping experience” said Cathy Granby, Business Development Director of SSP UK & Ireland. “The station is a key travel hub for Scotland, not only transporting passengers all over the country but also welcoming visitors and tourists to the country’s capital. We’ve received positive customer feedback from our most recent transformations, such as at London Liverpool Street, and I’m looking forward to seeing more come to life in Scotland later this year.”
Matt Harrison, channels director, Marks and Spencer, commented: “We’re delighted to partner with SSP to continue bringing our trusted value and delicious M&S Food range to customers at Edinburgh Waverley Station. This newly transformed store offers busy travellers a convenient and enjoyable shopping experience, with a wide selection of fresh, great quality products perfect for any journey.”
Alan Muir, property director for Scotland’s Railway at Network Rail, said: “The newly-refurbished M&S Food at Waverley station will help bring excellence to our Edinburgh customers and we welcome SSP’s investment in delivering this premium-look unit. Passengers expect a quality food and beverage offer at a major city terminal and M&S Food offers exactly that and in the right location – perfect for a grab and go lunch or for that fakeaway on your way home from work.”
