Loved this place! Amazing selection of baked goods - my partner and I stopped here for breakfast toasties and coffee after hiking Arthur’s Seat and it was cosy and the perfect place to refuel. They also had USB charging ports in the sitting room towards the back which was handy if you need a spot to literally recharge.

What a delightful coffee shop! I walked by and the cannoli caught my eye. I immediately walked in and bought a few and they were just as tasty as they looked. Highly recommend for cannoli lovers!

Great selection of baked goods, teas, and coffees. Cozy seating in the back and pampering service, an oasis on a cool Edinburgh morning walk.

Finally came here to have a quick take away latte. Humble service and I notice a great selection of sweets and pastry. Unfortunately, I was in a hurry. Will definitely stop by again to try!

I am a regular lunchtime customer here. The coffee is always on point and my favourite eats are avocado on toast or avocado and feta on toast. Served with ever fresh side salad, it's exactly the right amount, flavour and filling for lunchtime. Staff have always been friendly. I'm a bit bamboozled by how to get loyalty points but that's a me thing. The furniture set up is probably what might downgrade the 5 star review: it's a wee bit awkward but not the worst. However, with the flavours of food and coffee still making me go "Mmmm" a contented 5 stars it is.
