New head chef for award-winning St Andrews restaurant

Mat Majer has been appointed head chef at the multi-award-winning two AA rosette restaurant, The Adamson in St Andrews.

He joins The Adamson from his role at BABA in Edinburgh where he was stationed since it opened at the Principal Charlotte Square Hotel.

He will oversee the entire chef operations at The Adamson restaurant in Fife from events, occasions and the main restaurant. He replaces former head chef Stewart Macaulay.

Majer is expected to introduce a new ‘Market Menu’ offering at the popular St Andrews restaurant from next month and his new seasonal autumn menu is now available.

Commenting on his new role, Majer said, “The Adamson is an exciting move for me. I’m working within an independent restaurant where I have the opportunity to put my mark on the menus and create some amazing dishes, inspired by the St Andrew’s setting.”

Julie Lewis, owner of The Adamson, added, “Mat is a passionate chef with a brilliant track record within the Scottish restaurant scene. We are delighted to welcome him to our St Andrews family and are already tremendously impressed with his creativity.”
