Cafe Modern One in Edinburgh, City of

Waited in queue for 25 minutes for 2 coffees 1 member of staff doing everything it seemed serving meals and making coffees. I asked the server taking the money if I had to wait in long queue just for coffee answer was a curt yes. Seems very inefficient.

This used to be great place to meet friends. Now there is a limited choice of dishes. All the salads are swimming in oil. And it was so expensive. Only one person serving the food, so service is slow. Staff are uninviting.

If you're visiting the art gallery, this is a good option for lunch. As with many art galleries, it's pricey - a sandwich and a cup of tea is £8.50. Cafe gets busy at lunch time, so to get a table, it's best to be there early.

Lovely food but way too expensive. Three drinks, 2 sandwiches, 1 soup. 1 slice of bread. 1 brownie. It came to just over £34. There was hardly anything to select. The queue was long. The girl serving looked really unhappy. The food tastes great but I won't visit again.

The lunch menu was varied with a considerable range of choice. We opted for soup and a cheese scone,and a plate of delicious fresh salads. The flavour was lovely and the portions generous. Other options included freshly made sandwiches with tempting fillings and some hot items .Vegetarian,vegan and gluten free options we're available . We succumbed to returning to order cakes,coffee and a cuppa,all of which we would highly recommend. The ambiance is pleasant and relaxed. Today the sun shone through the windows and we enjoyed the view over the terrace as we ate our meal. A lovely way to spend a Sunday lunchtime. Staff were friendly,helpful and efficient .

I used to love coming here but since my visit today I won’t be returning. I visited with my partner and ten year old son for lunch before going to see the Hepworth exhibition. What a disappointment! Very few options for children so I just asked for a ham roll. What I received was half a simple white roll with no butter for £2 (see image). I asked where the other half was if it is was possible to have it and was told that I would be charged an additional £2 to have that too!!! I explained that I thought it was incredibly miserly and certainly not enough for my son's lunch. They replied that was the portion they gave kids and I couldn't have the other half of the roll. There was no attempt to make amends at my complaint and I was left feeling completely ripped off. My own lunch consisted of two salad portions for £7. Previously I would have found this a good option for lunch but it was served on a side plate and was also a measly amount. I don't know what has happened to this once good cafe, it's sad.

Wow. Visited many times and spent almost as long in the cafe garden as the gallery but cafe really needs to step back up. Busy Sunday afternoon, poor selection of cakes desert and ridiculously priced. I understand it probably cannot continue at the previous level with glorious cakes and cookies in abundance but it’s a long way from where it was.

Really disappointing return to what used to be a favourite place to eat. service by one person doing everything so a huge queue built up, even for a coffee. Prices have also increased - the main meal cost £11! and a basic hot chocolate (made with water) cost £3.60 and 60p extra for cream which is just excessive

This gallery is just fantastic but the café, which used to be absolutely great, is awful at the moment. The two girls serving were so slow and lifeless and the food range was so small. We came at 12.30 and most of the rolls were gone and the bacon and avocado and chilli Mayo one I had was stale and I couldn’t detect any chilli Mayo - it felt like it was yesterday’s stock. Very little choice and the quality was so poor. We’re living in hard times at the moment but this wonderful museum must need the income from the restaurant and I can’t see how it can generate that with such a change in standards in what used to be a quality cafe.

We visited the cafe after a lovely afternoon at the gallery and were very disappointed with the poor service. We took a table which was piled high with dirty dishes, as wre all the other available tables. We had to wait over 20 minutes to catch the attention of one of the staff members, who really seemed to be studiously ignoring the state of the tables. She acted as though we were asking for something beyond the pale and still ignored all the other tables covered in used cups and plates. Our order took a further twenty minutes to arrive and we had to go back to the counter to ask where it was. We complained to the same member of staff, given we only ordered two hot drinks and a soft drink, and the cafe wasn’t busy at all, but she just looked at us incredulously. I noticed other customers being served their orders before us, even though they came in long after we did and other customers also sitting and waiting for long periods while the staff ignored them. I felt like the staff didn’t have a clue what they were doing and they were deliberately ignoring both the customers and the state of the cafe in general

I visited the museum and the cafe with my friend. The food looks amazing and the staff is really nice. I ordered a halloumi & roasted vegetable sandwich but when I had a few bites I tasted pork / pork fast which made me feel sick. I think the halloumi or the grilled vegetables were fried in the same pan as the meat.

Brilliant café with exceptional home-baking and interesting considered savoury food. Quality tea and coffee. THE best Bakewell slice; scone and salted caramel brownie EVER. Charming staff. Immaculate stylish interior. This is how every café should be.

On a day of warm sunshine and showers we were uncertain whether or not to sit inside. But we did decide to go indoors, and the place was clean and the service okay. The really good thing was that their salads are amazing and interesting. Well worth a try.

The decor was fresh, staff pleasant and the food exceptionally fresh and well cooked with a decent range of dishes and beverages. Outdoor seating was good. Downside- very long queues and time to wait when I visited.

I visited today with my wife and after standing in a stationary queue for twenty minutes we left. This is the second time in less than a month that we’ve had to leave without eating. We won’t be going back in a hurry. Quite the most frustrating system I’ve ever encountered. Long queues with one person serving and others walking about looking busy but doing nothing.

This was our second visit to Cafe Modern One. The location is tranquil and an absolute delight. Our meal was fabulous - pork and black pudding burritos, an unexpected but inspired combination. Staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. Well worth 5 stars from us.

The food here is good and cannot fault that in any way. The access for someone with a disability is dreadful and the service leaves a lot to be desired. I have severe vertigo and cannot queue then balance a tray whilst trying to find...

Arrived at 2:20pm hoping for a scone or filled roll. As always there was an abundance of sweet cakes and biscuits but absolutely nothing non or semi-sweet such as a croissant, savoury scone or muffin (other than a proper lunch). We have been disappointed several...

Everything done properly - at a good price. What aren't there more like this ?

We like the choice of cakes and scones here, coffee is great and seating wonderful if you happen to sit outside (as we did this time)

The basement of this important national gallery is taken over by a good cafe. The cakes are more interesting than the cooked food, I find. The latter looks great but often doesn't have the promised flavour.

Visited here for a rest after visiting the Gallery and was suprised by the varied selection of great looking food on show.Tea and sconeswas our choice.One of the best scones We have had ever.On a good day you can sit outside in the garden.

Cheese scones are the best! Lots of other tasty treats to choose from and you can always sit outside in good weather.

Great place to stop and enjoy some well prepared wholesome cuisine. The choice of salad and pulses dishes are always very good in the modern gallery. They have a great menu that changes with the specials of the day. Tasty soups, sandwiches, flans, etc and...

This was a family visit to the Scottish Gallery of Modern Art on a bright summer day. We decided to start with morning coffee and scones/cakes sitting in the sunshine on the garden terrace. It was quite scrumptious, and set us up well for the...

Really good food and drink in super and well designed surroundings especially if warm enough to sit outside. I found the staff delightful. Excellent toileys.

A good range of food with hot dishes, salads, filled rolls and cakes. I had a pastrami roll which was very good indeed. shared a plum and almond tart and prices were reasonable Indoor and outdoor seating, I found the indoor area a bit bland...

Down the basement with a few seats overlooking the gardens outside, this museum cafe serves wonderful homemade pastries and tea along with sandwiches and soups. It is cafeteria/serve yourself style and the people behind the counter are very friendly and helpful.

El tiempo cualquiera doed rermember cuando tuvimos que dejar el edificio para encontrar comida y bebida? Que simbolizaba su billete o re-entrada y estaban molestos con la interrupción de la experiencia de thne el art. Este Café está justo donde debe estar, con mesas afuera en el hermosamente diseñado y cuidado jardín, y escalones que conducen hasta el cuerpo principal de la galería. La comida? Un poco variable. A veces parece más de lo que sabe. interestiing Los proveedores por favor tenga en cuenta que usted debe ser cata de todo lo que pasa. Esta vez, fue genial y no hay nada de que quejarse de la tortas y pasteles.

Comida sana, muy sabrosa, con productos cultivados en un huerto propio. Hay varias combinaciones disponibles para comer: plato del día (Con una opción vegetariana) + ensalada, sopa del día con pan casero, y sopa del día con ensalada y pan casero. Todo ello por precios muy económicos.

Nos alegramos de encontrar este gran café después de visitar la galería. Tienen una gran variedad de ensaladas, sopas, bocadillos y pasteles, así como un par de platos de carne. Decidimos hacer una comida vegetariana y yo fuimos un poco fuera de campo con la paleo y lácteos glutenfree foods on request, pero no azúcar berry tarta. Todo estaba delicioso!

Nourriture savoureuse, gourmande et fraîche : parfait juste après une visite... et rien à voir avec les cafétérias habituelles ! Cadre agréable.

The cafe has some nice lunch options, we opted for the chicken salad, which was very fresh and nicely prepared. Other options also looked good.

Great simple food and friendly service. What more can you ask for. We enjoyed a choice of two home-made soups, a piece of cake and a scone with cream and jam. Lovely!

No soy una persona ensalada pero aquí siempre me gusta la ensalada ofrecido. También probé la opción los vegetarianos felizmente eligió de nuevo. Lo único negativo es que encontrar un asiento puede ser un problema, especialmente con una persona en una mesa de 4. Y la necesidad de mejorar en limpiar las mesas. De lo contrario, una gran experiencia.

Visitamos el café en uno moderno para almorzar con clientes que estaban alojados con nosotros. El café estaba muy lleno y el personal que sirve la comida parecía estar muy acosadas y no muy agradable. Vi un cliente que había sido empujado a pedir café...

Este es uno de mis lugares favoritos en Edimburgo para un café y un bollo. Me encanta y el área para sentarse afuera es un fantástico lugar para tomar el sol. Hola Primavera en Edimburgo! También el caramelo salados brownie es celestial.

Este debe ser un muy buen lugar para comer, ya que estaba lleno. Tenía que ser rápido en la marca para conseguir un asiento. Las comidas se consumen parecía magnífico. Sólo estuvimos allí por un café. Hacer cola por un largo tiempo ya que la mayoría de la gente estaba pidiendo comida.

Lovely coffee, delicious carrot cake, friendly staff and beautiful garden where you can enjoy sunny days

Excellent freshly prepared lunches, cakes and coffee. The homemade soups are particularly good. Can be very busy at times and noisy.

The scones are spot on. The home made jam that accompanies them is even better. Make sure you get cream with it! Flat white is also excellent. Went early so plenty of seating although can get very busy. Self service and and informal. Nice- like it!

Great cafe but VERY busy at lunchtimes. Seating is not ideal nor is queing beside seated diners .Food is very attractive and tasty. They also make a mean espresso!

The food here is delicious but this self service cafe is possibly the victim of its own success. It was busy when we arrived but there seemed to be a few vacancies at tables. There were only four or five people ahead of us in the queue. Once we had collected our food we discovered that the vacant chairs were taken by people still queuing for food. One member of each party had been left to hold the table while the others queued. One customer rudely told us it was our own fault for not bagging a table before we collected our meal! Be warned!

Great restaurant. Often busy. Fantastic cullen skink (smoked haddock) soup for lunch. This is rarely served in southern England (where I come from). Yummm!

This cafe is a favourite lunchtime date for myself and my wife. The food is always really different and freshly made. Quite noisy and very busy at weekends. Get here a bit early to get a table.

This is a perfect lunch/ coffee and cake spot.Everything is very nice . The bowls of soup are huge, flavoursome and come with nice chunky bread.There is lots of nice outdoor seating if it's a nice day!

It's lovely to be able to eat out as a vegetarian and have a choice. The salad plates here are delicious, as are the soups and cakes. There are meat options too that are apparently tasty! The room is pleasant and looks over the gardens - you can sit out in fine weather.

Delicious food , even the salad is tasty! Gorgeous cakes which appear to be cooked on the premises. I think a lot of local people regularly visit here.

Este café es completamente delicioso. Desayunamos aquí y aunque no hay más opciones que bebidas y panecillos, los panes son impresionantemente deliciosos. Si no es para desayuno recomiendo ampliamente este lugar para tomar el té o el postre.

Having browsed round an excellent exhibition of Surrealist art we meandered downstairs to the Cafe for a latte and something tasty.Settled for a fruit scone and latte but considered quite a few other tasty treats .If I lived locally I would be dropping in for a Latte and sticky bun regularly . Good cooking stands out no bought in cakes here !

Across the road from hotel, does not open till ten, partly shut as its in between exabitions. In the gift shop there is a giant robot about 24 ft tall ,well worth a visit

This cafe is well worth a visit when you are visiting the gallery, or even as it's own destination. There is paid parking outside. The salads change every day and are not your usual salads. The pastries are to die for, especially the frangipani tart. Even the tea and coffee is above average. I ordered more supplies of tea from London based on my experience there. The staff were kind enough to share the brand name and flavour. I was well taken care of by the staff, they were very friendly behind the counter. It's an interesting , fun place to go.

A recent trip to Modern One made me hugely inspired and happy. The salads were delightful and so colourful and fresh. We had 'cake tapas' which is a remarkable way to sample as many cakes as possible!! Perfect lunch visit. My birthday too....all in all a great visit

食材にこだわりヘルシー思考があるカフェランチです。オリジナルのサラダは驚くほど、やみつきになるレパトリーばかり。ケーキの種類も豊富です。お天気が良い日はオープンテラスもあるのでお勧めです。

Great art and excellent salads and sandwiches and yummy cakes.gluten free options too. Cafe has outside tables when it is sunny .

The Modern One cafe never fails to deliver healthy and quality food with in great surroundings, which is replicated across it's fellow cafes throughout Edinburgh.

In the basement of the Modern Art Gallery, this bright and cheerful self service cafe is rightly busy, as it serves delicious food and drinks.lots of salads, sandwiches, cakes and scones all beautifully cooked and prepared. In the nicer weather, there are outside tables in the very pretty garden. Really nice and super staff.

Lunch here, midweek, and a healthy mix of soups, salads, warm plates and then sweet tooth offerings to accompany tea.Located on ground floor, busy, but with natural light in the main area and a tray service to view all delicious looking food in an adjoining room.£4 for a very good size and tasty salad combination, add soup for another £2, its good value for a captive market below the shows.I'd suggest a little more attention to cleaning the trays and wiling tables, but would incorporate into a visit to gallery most occasions.

If you visit the Modern Art Gallery then be sure to have lunch here in the downstairs café. The food is wonderful & you always have a vegetarian option on the menu. In good weather you can sit outside on the terrace.

We had excellent pork sausage roll with tasty cole slaw and salad topped off with nice vinaigrette. Good show! Enjoyed it!

This is a lovely, clean, airy cafe set within the Modern Art Gallery and well worth a visit if you are passing by (entrance is free) or enjoying the exhibitions. It serves a range of good coffee and drinks, sandwiches, casual meals etc at prices which are fair for its prime location in the gallery. It has lovely views over the grounds and installations.

Had double shot Americano - is £2.50p expensive? Coffee was excellent. Like the ambience and outlook of the cafe overlooking garden and sculptures.Very good exhibition - recommend - it is on until May.

A very popular café and therefore busy at lunchtime, it serves a good range of food including sandwiches, baked potatoes and salads, all very healthy and tasty. Definitely somewhere to stop for lunch of afternoon tea/coffee during the Gallery visit.

Really nice cafe. All the food is made on the premises. We had soup, rolls and cake all of which were delicious and reasonably priced.

We were in the gallery anyway and stayed for lunch. Fresh posh rolls. Lovely salads and soup. There serenaded potatoes too. The cakes stand out though. We went back in the queue for ours. Its very busy and seems popular with people as a destination in its own right rather than a cafe for gallery goers. Got to be a good sign! There was a large outdoor area but with snow on the ground everyone stayed inside.

I had a wonderful celebration at the Modern One Cafe. The staff were friendly and attentive. The food, substantial canapés, was delicious. The fizz was served with style. Many of my guests complimented me on my choice of venue with it's art, delightful garden and wonderful treats to eat. Many thanks to Susan and all her staff for overseeing a great evening and making my event run so smoothly. I would recommend The Modern One Cafe to anyone looking for a venue with a difference at a reasonable cost.

There is something very nice about eating in a gallery, surrounded by beautiful things. The staff were friendly, attentive with a sense of humour. The food, for lunch, was really tasty and nicely presented.

May be a good place for afternoon tea, but lunvpch menu was very disappointing and limited

I visited the Dean Gallery to take my father and sister for afternoon tea, the parking was really easy and no problem to find. <br />We got a delicious savoury starter of a tiny mug of soup and savoury scone, beautifully presented , we didn&#039;t want the prosecco offered (as we were driving) but were offered a variety of soft drinks in its place. <br />The sandwiches and scones were delicious and they had noted my one veggie request and had that ready too. The cakes and brownies were delicious and more than we could manage so we got our leftover treats to take home. My Dad loved it. The table service was superb. <br />I will definitely go back.

I visit regularly, and have never had a bad experience. The food is of a high standard, staff are helpful, and the atmosphere is pleasant. I highly recommend the Cheese Scones and Chocolate Brownies.

I recently had morning coffee at the cafe modern two with some friends, the service was very good and the cakes were lovely. It&#039;s not cheap but it&#039;s a great setting and entry to the gallery is free so it all evens out!

Disappointing coffee and cake offer was restricted to only a choice of 4 cakes, had to pay extra for preferred cake. Parking was £2 not £1 as stated on voucher.

One of the best afternoon teas in Edinburgh. A variety of sandwiches and savoury scone served on a slate platter first with a delicious cup of hot soup. Glass of prosecco can be included as well. Then the sweet delights are brought with pot of tea. Scones, jam and clotted cream and 3 other cakes/tray bakes. Servers are very attentive and friendly and atmosphere in the room is perfect. One is not rushed and afterwards can look round the exhibits in the art gallery followed by a stroll in the grounds or even a stroll through the adjoining graveyard. There is also a car park. Definitely an Edinburgh special place.

My friend and me went to Cafe Modern Two for brunch. We both had fruit scones with cream and a cup of coffee. They&#039;re good and valuable. The staff are nice and helpful as well, especially for a lady called Emma. She is kind and very nice.<br /><br />One drawback is that the location is hard to access, have a long walking distance from the bus stop.

A delightful find, this cafe is a jewel in the gallery. We had Beetroot soup, a large salad plate two lattes and a cake for £18. We shared the food in the courtyard area which was charming in the autumn sun.The food was prepared fresh and the salads were dressed and seasoned lightly which we loved. I particularly liked the display of food which was attractive. A really well put together establishment.

Lovely light meals - salads particularly good and often a bit different to the norm. Plenty of outdoor seating in walled garden. Cakes and scones for afternoon teas. Normally very tranquil.

The service from one particular member of staff was outstanding. Emma was a star and made the visit worthwhile. But the food was slow to come and although tasty, tiny portions and not the WOW that some reviews lead you to believe. Not the &#039;foodie&#039; heaven I&#039;d heard about. Not in my opinion anyway. <br />Setting is dramatic and there&#039;s lots of bustle but that means it&#039;s very noisy - although we did visit at a very busy time of the year. During a weekday lunch it&#039;s probably idyllic. <br />Toilets are downstairs and a bit of a walk so not ideal for those less able although there is a lift. <br />Emma made it for us. Thanks for your fantastic level of customer service.

The Café always amazes with its fantastic food and fabulous ingredients. Had a great lunch there today; marvellous salads with a terrific choice every time. It's definitely worth a trip out to the gallery just for the food — having all the art there too is a magnificent bonus. We went to see the Escher exhibition this time, and loved it.

I've been here many times, mostly to meet friends or following a long walk beside the Water of Leith. There's a varied choice of food including soups, fancy sandwiches, hot dishes and delectable cakes - great coffee too. The serving area has been re-arranged and the food offering has improved greatly. Tables in the pretty garden are great for dry days but this visit was on a very rainy day so a shortage of seats inside meant sharing a table. Parking at the rear costs £2 per day, a bargain for Edinburgh!

Gezellige bar , hebben hier iets gedronken , wel prijzig . Niet zo erg als het museum gratis is , zeer mooie tuin .

Very disappointing. Despite advance booking, staff weren&#039;t expecting us and there was a great deal of confusion. We waitied 25 minutes before our &quot;savoury course&quot; was served (sandwiches take that long??), by which time I&#039;d finished my cup of coffee and wasn&#039;t offered more....I eventually had to ask! The scones were acceptable although a little dry and I was unimpressed by the cakes. My daughter didn&#039;t like any of the sandwich fillings. Not what we&#039;ve come to expect in Edinburgh for afternoon tea! Nowhere near worth the £30 for afternoon tea for two and we won&#039;t be returning. A number of places are offering far better quality and value.

The fixed price lunch menu seems to be discontinued &amp; I was not impressed with the new menu.

Popped in for tea and cakes when we had been wandering around the gallery and made use of the outdoor seating in a wonderful setting.Cakes were out of this world, between us we tried scones, ginger topped shortcake, chocolate caramel slices and could have stayed forever.I eat a lot of cakes and these were simply some of the best ever - marvellous to whoever made them.Proper tea in a pot with leaves - job done!!!

I have not been to this cafe in a while as I thought it had gone down hill but decided today to give it another chance, I am so glad I did as the difference was amazing the beautiful display of home baking as you went in was georgous and made it very difficult to choose what to have we decided on the salted caramel brownie and the empire biscuit which was topped with raspberry and pistachio a bit different to the normal empire which made it very special both were to die for.The salads and main courses looked very appealing and fresh will come back a the next time for lunch to try.All in all a lovely visit and glad I decided to go back highly recommend

This is the third afternoon tea I have booked. They have all been very enjoyable. The staff accommodate awkward requests with grace. If you choose not to have the afternoon tea, the soup and choice of cakes are very satisfying. The craft shop is also very good.

The cafe downstairs in the Modern Art One gallery is one of Edinburgh’s best kept secrets. Always excellent for a morning coffee, some lunch or afternoon tea, it really comes into its own on a summer day when you can sit at one of the tables setup in the courtyard garden outside. Being south facing it really catches the sun in the afternoon. The cafe also serves wine and bottled beers so could well be the smartest beer garden in Scotland!Whatever you fancy, it is the perfect place to finish up after a tour of the world class modern art exhibitions held in the gallery.

This restaurant is situated in the Gallery of Modern Art in Edinburgh. It is the usual pleasant, but overpriced cafe of this type. We had soup, coffee and a cake for 3 people and we paid around £40! The food was nice but nothing amazing for that price. The bread was homemade and extremely yummy. The food serving area was cramped and the queue was very long even on a relatively quiet day.

I just wanted something sweet after looking at the exhibits. The bakers had prepared a salted caramel butter cream icing cake and Oh boy was it delicious. That slice of cake was all I ate the whole day because I just wanted to savor it. Very nice service there as well.

Service was dreadful waited very long time for food when it did appear not correct sandwiches as requested and bread beginning to dry out. Last Sunday was a Bank Holiday and Mt enough staff had turned up would go again but definitely avoid a Bank Holiday Sunday as would definitely be a better experience.

Wonderful spread. Old favourites and new tastes. Scrumpteous

Good, well prepared and presented tasty and healthy dishes. A very pleasant cafe lunch in a delightful location

Excellent afternoon tea in a gorgeous venue. We used an ITISON voucher and so it was outstanding value. A couple of small hiccups - I said I was a fish eating vegetarian in my online booking but was still served a ham sandwich which I gave to my husband. The little glass of pea soup was a lovely surprise but not very hot and it would have been nice to have a choice of teas. I would go again as it was very enjoyable nevertheless and the amount of food meant that I didn&#039;t miss the ham sandwich at all. I mention this as I thought any requests or additional bits of information would be acted on otherwise why put that section on the online booking form? <br />A lovely afternoon.

Food ok, baked potatoes, salad etc. Spent over £15 but they would not give us the cake offer as we did not spend it in one transaction. (Within 30 minutes did not qualify!) However they had the cake offer poster covered over with another one at the till so the customer would not know that an offer was on. The posters for offer were only being displayed on the back of the doors in the loos. Weird. Won't be back and the Managers haughty attitude was appalling. I will be reporting them to Trading Standards however.....

Wonderful trip to the art gallery in Belford Road, rounded off with a delightful afternoon train Cafe Modern Two. Would really recommend this.

A nice spacious cafe with excellent outdoor garden space. Good food choices and high quality. Free wifi too.Can be a little busy at times but well worth the stop when visiting the gallery

We had a wonderful lunch. Quick, laid-back service and beautiful, tasty food; all topped off with a well-made coffee and home-made cake. We will be back.

Really really good quality coffee and cakes. Edinburgh Middle-class mums swear by this place. Pleasant atmosphere and if the weather is good enough you can sit outside in a very genial garden area

I know most of the reviews here will be describing the merits of poncy artworks and such like but most Edinburgh Ladies know that this place has the best cafe to meet up and buy excellent coffee and scones and what-have-you. Nice place to sit and chat both indoors and outdoors (when the weather is fine). Oh....the are pictures and paper-mache creations to have a look at too.
