Luke warm latte. Big crack in coffee cup. Sticky table. Sitting area in the back without natural light and pockey. Wasn't very warm on a cold day. Cappuccino very similar to a latte. But the coffee and walnut cake was lovely.

It is very popular within tourists. It can be very busy sometimes and you have to wait for a table. Staff is very friendly and helpful. They have good selections of cakes. Food is just ok I would say. Worth visit if there is a free table.

Excellent place! Quick service and friendly staff. The food and coffee were really delicious. I ordered the vegetarian Scottish breakfast and my partner ordered the regular full Scot breakfast. Cozy atmosphere and indie folk pop playlist for the morning was perfect!

I think this is the best cafe I've been to i Edinburgh, my home town. Located in a historic part of town, the way this cafe is laid out is inspiring. It's really well done up with good lighting and lots of interesting features. It's not that warm though, but maybe this is because I have a cold I feel the cold more. The service was really friendly and I give them 5 stars mainly based on this. My Polish waitress was lovely and the Spanish Maitre d was great with everyone. The place was packed and I had to wait for a table for breakfast. I had the Scottish breakfast which was unhealthy but served in a stylish way on the plate and there wasn't too much of it, so it was fine. And then I sat around for a bit, reading and writing, and I didn't get any signals from the staff that I should hop it. Best thing about this place is that it's within walking distance of the train station. As Arnie says, I'll be back.

I went here for brunch while staying at Edinburgh Backpackers next door; the hostel offers a 15% discount at this joint. Let me first say that the inside of this restaurant/cafe is super cute and I love their display of homemade pastries in the window. The menu has plenty of tasty-sounding options. I liked the food a lot; I had the barbecue chicken wrap, while my girlfriend had the vegetarian breakfast. I had no complaints about either of these dishes, or the coffee. What I did have a problem with was the service. The girl who greeted and seated us was nice enough, but our waitress was very unfriendly. She could barely muster a "how are you" when we sat down, and seemed completely disinterested in providing a friendly, warm cafe environment. It was difficult to get her attention for tap water, let alone anything else, though she seemed able to pay lots of attention to her boyfriend/partner who also appeared to work there. It's not a bad place to grab a bite, and the food is yummy enough. Just don't expect great, prompt service or a smile when you come here.
