About this space

Raised Area is a semi-private, elevated event space in Chanter Edinburgh that provides a degree of separation from the main bar while keeping the group visually connected to the venue's activity.

Design: The interior combines dark timber panelling, varnished floorboards and exposed ceiling beams with amber pendant lighting. The layout follows a traditional sports-bar aesthetic, emphasising durable finishes and clear sightlines across the room.

Features: The area is served by the venue's PA/speaker system and benefits from multiple wall-mounted screens suitable for broadcasting. The space includes Wi-Fi, air conditioning and natural light, and it sits adjacent to the venue's central bar for staffed drink service.

Ideal for: Groups seeking an informal, social setting for relaxed seated meals or standing drinks who want some privacy without being isolated from the bar atmosphere.

What guests say: The space is lively and welcoming with attentive, friendly staff, and it stays busy while still allowing conversation among groups.
