Best place in Edinburgh, lovely people and amazing breakfast Food: 5/5
Perfect for a quick takeaway breakfast/lunch. We have been here a couple of times for coffee and a nibble before a day exploring Edinburgh and it is simply amazing. The prices are super cheap and there is plenty of ingredients choices for sandwiches, paninis, etc. I loved the lentil and bacon soup and they also have a couple more choices like the mushroom soup, which it’s just what you need on these winter days. The owner is super friendly and hardworking, he is quick but if you are in a hurry try to avoid lunch hours during week days because everyone from the offices on the other side of the road seems to take food from here which is definitely a good sign.
Excellent sandwich fillings you can't find in other places. Quick and friendly service. Highly recommend if looking for somewhere to pick up a sandwich for lunch.
Loved this place! A really great selection! A must for breakfast or/and lunch.
Great breakfast rolls and top class service!
Great wee sandwich shop where you pick what kind of bread roll you want and what fillings to put on it. The staff are very helpful, especially as I ask them to get a new chopping board and knife to prepare my lunch as I am strict vegetarian and don't want any cross contamination with my lunch, they are happy to oblige my request. Good selection of juice and crisps too. Reasonably priced.
I came here for lunch during covid 19. Great menue selection, the best customer service making you feel at easy running through all the options. The gentleman serving today was so positive and friendly. I stood outside while waiting on my panini cooking, I watched through the window - his hygiene and care was fantastic! I watched him sanatise religiously after handling money and put so much care into his job. Really lovely place I will definitely be back for lunch in the future.
Excellent prices, good range of either pre-made or assemble your own fillings on a wide range of rolls, baked potatoes, soups or salads. Really friendly staff, too - first choice to grab lunch or breakfast! in the local area.
A first time visit for me a few weeks back. We'd arrived at the EICC for my husband to have his second vaccine. He was sure his appointment was for 1:30pm and we were early. I double checked his appointment letter and he was actually booked in for 1:45pm so we had around a half hour wait. We spotted Scooby's and I decided to go in and grab a coffee. My husband was hungry so asked me to grab 'some kind of toastie; ham and cheese will be fine,' because we didn't know if it was quite a basic cafe or not. It's not! I ordered my coffee then asked for the toastie, and was offered a selection of beautiful cheeses! I went with Jarlsberg and a smoked cheese with the ham. The gentleman serving was lovely and chatted away while I waited on the toastie. I thought business would've boomed for him being straight across from the centre but he explained that it hadn't made any difference. Most people just arrive and head off immediately afterwards, which is a shame. However, my second appointment will be due in a couple of weeks and I'll certainly make a return visit to Scooby's while I'm there!
Friendly service and a good range of sandwiches at really reasonable prices. I usually indulge in one of the home baked chocolate squares when I come here. There's no seats, but if the weathers good you can sit in the square on the other side of the road.
