Johnny Aitkin

Johnny started his 25 year love affair with hospitality at Robert Gordon’s University where he achieved a degree in Hospitality Management.

A Diploma in Food & Wine followed at Leith’s School of Food and Wine in London where he was able to work in some of London’s best Restaurants. Peacock Alley in Dublin was Johnny’s next stop in his culinary journey working with Ireland’s youngest trailblazing Michelin starred Chef Conrad Gallagher. From Ireland Johnny travelled across the pond working in the States, Canada & the Caribbean. On returning to Scotland Johnny worked in Glasgow’s Stravaigin and for the past four years has been the Chef/Proprietor of Glasgow’s Riverhill. With his global repertoire of dishes and love of Scottish produce he now hopes to spearhead the hospitality and food & beverage team at The Lodge and The Inn on Loch Lomond.
