181 Delicatessen in Edinburgh, City of

We were passing and stopped in. Such a fantastic deli. The lady behind the counter was very friendly, very knowledgeable & everything we bought was delicious. Highly recommended.

As it is also a deli I wanted to buy Edinburgh butter to take back to England and it was the nearest place to where I was staying that sold it. The man who served me was very helpful and polite.

Just the best deki around. So many great choices of fresh food, home baking and unusual food gifts. There is a small cafe area for a coffee and cake.

Vaya al 181 para disfrutar de una excelente comida y un excelente café. Tienen nuestro pan favorito y, si estás comiendo en los bollos de Charlotte, son irresistibles.

Conocí a mi amigo aquí para un almuerzo ligero después de que McLarens en la esquina no respondiera al correo de voz ni a la pregunta del correo electrónico en el menú. . . . Olvidé esta pequeña joya de deli. En primer lugar, solo 2 mesas socialmente distanciadas y bien configuradas con desinfectante y socialmente distanciadas pueden recolectar alimentos con una interacción mínima con el personal . . . Me sentí muy limpio y seguro. Ambos tomamos sopa con bollos de queso y semillas de nigella. . . . No era pesado en absoluto, pero la sopa estaba bien. . . Un poco aguada pero la porción no demasiado pesada si después quieres un café ligero. . . . Scone sabores deliciosos y, de nuevo, normalmente nunca tendría queso en Scone, ya que puede ser pesado. . . . Esto tenía más sabor a través del Scone tan delicado pero aún podía saborear. Un montón de deliciosas ensaladas, pero era un día húmedo para la sopa. Definitivamente necesito volver y abastecerse de un encantador deli. . . ?

As an Edinburgh local, this is a great find! They stock some amazing quirky products that you wouldn't find in your average shop. I bought some of the shortbread from Fife and some of the cheese sables. Karly, our tour guide along with the owner talked about the ethos of the deli and how community based it is. I will definitely be going back!

This was a super little find which I came across on a walking tour in Edinburgh called ‘aweetasteofEdinburgh’ which the guide Karly was amazing. Such a lovely family run business and great fresh products. Little seating area for you to sit in and have a coffee which I prefer to look after small local business rather than the big chains. Owner took the time to go over the history of the shop and how they came to owning it which was a lovely touch. Black pudding scotch eggs are unreal .... everyone must try these.

Came here on the “Wee Taste of Edinburgh Walking Tour” and absolutely loved it! I had a delicious scotch egg and bought some local honey.

This a lovely little deli that I visited in June through Karly’s walking food and drink tour. We tried a homemade traditional scotch egg (I’d only ever had the supermarket ones before) and it was delicious! This is a definite must for anyone looking for good, fresh and local British fayre!

What a great deli with such passionate and knowledgeable staff. The scotch egg and traditional pork pie were absolutely delicious! I was unaware that this place existed until I came in as part of a walking food and drink tour organised by Karly. I will definitely be going back!

I discovered this wonderful little deli at the end of June on Karly’s walking food and drink tour. The first thing you notice is the abundance of quirky jams, pickles and chutneys that line their shelves. 181 stock an array of local and foreign artisanal products that you wouldn’t find in a supermarket. We tried a traditional scotch egg which was delicious. 5 stars!

I was in Edinburgh for a four week holiday from Canada and came into this little deli on a walking food and drink tour A Wee Taste of Edinburgh. There were so many unique goods behind their counter and we got to try a black pudding scotch egg which was beautful! I absolutely recommend this deli!

What a wonderful little deli, discovered when I was part of Karly's 'A Wee Taste of Edinburgh' food and drink tour. The staff were really accommodating even though the place was very busy and the homemade food we were offered was so so very tasty. Would definitely recommend popping in to see what delicacies are available.....

I was introduced to 181 Delicatessen as part of the 'A Wee Taste of Edinburgh' food tour. The owners were lovely, and all the food was excellent. My personal favourites were the different varieties of scotch eggs, which I never knew could be so good.

When I won a voucher for lunch at this place I had never heard of it or even noticed it despite being in an area of town I know well. 181 Delicatessen is easy to walk past, being a small narrow shopfront in a busy street. However I won’t make that mistake again. It’s a fabulous little cafe/deli with only a few tables at the back and very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Our lunch was delicious; we chose meat and cheese platters which had a great assortment of tasty treats. The deli at the front of the cafe was constantly busy and there was some really nice tableware and artisan foods for sale too. The cakes were fabulous too.

You could easily walk past this lovely wee deli not realising there was a coffee shop in the back. The owners are very friendly and welcoming,and the freshly baked scones of ever-changing flavours are brilliant. Seek it out!

Comida súper sabrosa con un servicio increíble. La camarera nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos, ella era muy apasionado y amable. Incluso déjame probar el sabor de la sopa antes de decidir. El queso de cabra en mi sándwich de vegetales asados ​​era súper riquísimo. Pequeño pero realmente increíble. . . una pequeña tienda de delicatessen muy especial. . . tanto sobre la comida como el servicio feliz / amable.

Estoy encantado de descubrir este lugar, ya que es muy amigable, pequeño y acogedor, ¡es donde quieres estar especialmente en este clima invernal! Hacen sopa increíble, gran sabor!

Esta pequeña tienda era un gran hallazgo pasear por Bruntsfield. Mi marido disfrutó mucho su hog tarta recién hecho. Yo tenía un café muy sabroso y compré una caja de té para tomar en casa. Es una tienda de delicatessen que vende queso fantásticas tartas y para llevar a casa. Sin duda merece la pena una visita.

Such an enjoyable place to visit. Great staff and lovely food to eat in or take away. Very clean too. Will certainly return. Nice things to buy.

Con muchas cafeterías y tiendas cercas para escoger en Morningside nuestro pequeño fiesta familiar que se estaba convirtiendo en algo de hambre por la que nos decidimos a entrar 181. Un agradable calor, bienvenida y una mesa, que era perfecta para nosotros, se hizo listo rápidamente y felizmente. El menú es interesante con buena comida y combinaciones de sabor y algo adecuado para todos los gustos - así como proporcionar un bocadillo tostado para los jóvenes miembros de la familia que nos mostró su agradecimiento por cada última bocado ¡acabado La apariencia general y la distribución muestra gran consideración y el personal toma una evidente placer en servir y ayudar a los clientes a elegir, ya sea a pie en más de barra o sentado por el servicio. Un gran hallazgo entre tantos!

Precioso hotel, con un ambiente muy relajado y amable y excelente café y pasteles. Han comenzado a hacer los mejores pasteles de cerdo que he probado recientemente, lo cual es una mala noticia para mi cintura! Los productos de la charcutería es típicamente italiano, y obviamente muy cuidadosamente elegidos (tienen una increíble salami con hinojo) y para rematar, viene con una actitud modesta. Una fantástica tienda!

Stopped by for a breakfast one morning. There is not a huge selection but the baked goods are really tasty. The coffee is really good too

Que puede que no sepa que nuestro favorito deli no catering. No sólo el servicio exterior, pero también en la tienda después de horas. Tuvimos una fantástica comida de 4 platos italianos con temática de 14. Charlotte creó un menú de inspiración para satisfacer nuestras necesidades, incluidas las restricciones dietéticas. Canapés muy sabroso para estimular nuestro apetito. Queso Burrata con nectarinas, embutidos, verduras asadas, caponata, aceitunas y humus... sólo para empezar. La lasaña siciliano salchicha era absolutamente maravilloso. Los pudines, podría seguir y seguir. El budín de pan y manteca (no sé italiano) fue el mejor que he probado nunca. El restaurante italiano, surcado por casablaca PX de jerez fue fantástico. Todo terminado con cafés y cristales de chocolate. Los clientes dijo que este era un lugar tan especial para una celebración privada, relajante y muy personal. Muchas gracias a Charlotte, Mike y el encantador Kelsey

Gran cafetería y delicatessen, scones son increíbles y casi diferentes todos los días. Un montón de cosas interesantes para comprar siempre nos hicieron sentir bienvenidos.

181 Deli is a first rate delicatessen as well as an excellent coffee shopIt is small with friendly staff, excellent home baking, scones are wonderful, unusual combinations of ingredients.Coffee and teas are varied and you are always made to feel very welcome

Absolutely fabulous delicatessen food with a small coffee shop at the rear serving lovely coffee. Great staff and great supply of lovely food

Everything about 181 is perfect! The scones and coffee are amazing. All of the cheeses and deli products are top notch. The staff is cheerful, friendly and efficient -the best I have seen anyplace!

Just happened to find this wonderful cafe yesterday whilst exploring this lovely part of Edinburgh. The quiche was to die for along with the lovely sandwiches and in particular the lovely salads which accompany the food. Coffee and home made cakes where lovely too we will be back. Thank you

As a Bruntsfield local, this is my go-to coffee and cake stop! Love the range of homemade treats available to satisfy my very sweet tooth with a cup of fantastic coffee or tea. Highly recommend the fresh-out-the-oven scones - a different flavour each day! And exquisite jam... Go try it for yourself!

This is a great little deli with a good range of cheese and excellent dried sausage, I also bought some really nice bread last time I was in. The little cafe section at the back serves great food, both savoury food and also interesting cakes / scones - the only problem is that the cafe is rather small. The owner is really nice and helpful, and always seems to have new things to try.

Quite a small deli but they have a fantastic range of quality foods available to eat in or take away. Highly recommend going for the cheeses and it's well worth taking time to chat with the owner who is very helpful and knowledgeable and may help you pick out something a little different.

Never had coffee or food here, but the front is lovely! I love products that are specialised, and 181 does a lovely selection of imported biscuits, cheese and other specialised goodies you wouldnt find anywhere else!

This deli has bountiful amounts of interesting foods. All sourced with great skill by the owner who knows a thing or two about it having worked in the industry for a good long while. There is a small cafe at the back where one can drink their exquisite coffee and sample(amongst other savoury things) the cake of the day. But I have eaten their gorgeous olives , tried their curry kits, eaten their handmade salted caramel chocolates with honey (yum yum) tried amazing biscuits and generally the place is a cornucopia of amazing finds. Visit!

First visit to newish (opened Aug'14) deli on Bruntsfield Place and very impressed. Very personal touch from owners Michael and Charlotte. The food was excellent (recommend the charcuterie selection) and well priced, especially the coffees. Décor is very tasteful . The real attraction is numerous local artisan products on sale e.g. at least two ranges of chocolates made at Marchmount and Morningside. Go try it and support a local business not a multi-national Costa, Caffe Nero or Starbucks !
