Albannach was a restaurant in Trafalgar Square which specialised in Scottish food and whisky. Its name means "scot" or "scottish" in Gaelic. It was founded by a Glaswegian entrepreneur, Niall Barnes, in 2005.[2]
To celebrate their first Burns night, the head chef, John Paul McLachlan, created a special haggis using a rare and expensive 50-year-old Balvenie malt whisky.[3]
The site is now a branch of the Fuller's pub chain.[4]
