John Gilmour Butchers is a third-generation family run company based in East Lothian, Scotland. We specialise in dry aged beef and lamb from the best farms in Scotland, using the finest produce and quality control methods that simply cannot be beaten. Our aim is to supply the highest quality Scottish produce to hotels and restaurants across the UK.

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.

We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.

A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
