Cafe No. 33 in Edinburgh, City of

We stopped here for lunch on a day's walking. The halloumi flatbreads which we had toasted, were delicious with lots of fresh salad inside. Coffee is good too. It's easy to pass by these little cafes without noticing them but this one was worth a stop.

Friendly staff, great food and coffee. Dog friendly AND there’s WiFi - a rarity in Edinburgh. A favourite place to stop for a break.

Great staff, lovely space, good food. It’s my go-to place in Stockbridge as the Italian manager is a delight. WiFi isn’t seen as being some kind of bizarre fetish - unlike in some Stockbridge cafes. Dog friendly.

Such a hidden gem in the middle of Stockbridge. Fresh sandwiches and flatbreads prepared daily in their main deli in Henderson Row (just around the corner). They use Williams and Johnson beans, which are roasted locally in leith. Tunes are great and staff is super helpful. #supportlocal

A good place for lunch. Coffee is good and the wrap is beyond the expectation. Took away a salted caramel brownie which is good as well.

Had coffee anda cake ,seemed ok untill i watched one of the staff petting a dog then going back to serving pepole not having cleaned his hands, I know its a dog frendly cafe but thats taking it a bit to far

Reasonable place to stop for coffee and a breakfast snack - basic but fits the need and good to see it’s surviving!

Given the transient nature of eating establishments I cannot see Cafe 33 being a mainstay of Stockbridge. There are loads of cozy, homely places to eat in this part of town and Cafe 33 sure ain't one of them. I only went in here because my cousin was being problematic and I wanted to sit down for a minute. When I got in the first thing that struck me was the absolute, stone-cold S-I-L-E-N-C-E which was utterly deafening. There was one other customer - a middle-aged woman who just sat alone at a table and stared dead-ahead without blinking. It was so uncomfortable. I ordered a hot chocolate but was served a cold/lukewarm chocolate that was gone in three gulps. Bargain for £4. The indifferent woman serving, who had no warmth or cheer to her at all, seemed to be quite busy making an aggravating racket loading and unloading the dishwasher. Here's a priceless tip - keep that sort of thing behind the scenes. Customers don't want to be disturbed with that noise. I couldn't get out of there fast enough.

Stockbridge is spoiled for choice when it comes to cafes. No. 33 is easy to pass by - it does not look like much from the outside. However, they do know their coffee, have delicious cakes, and a nice selection of flatbread sandwiches. The mood is friendly and non-hipster in a good way.

Perfect place for a cup of coffee and slice of cake. Coffee, a Williams & Johnson coffee (locally roasted) was exceptionally nice while my children enjoyed a hearty slide of the raspberry and white chocolate cake...i didn't get a look in!

Popped in here with no expectations, met by friendly staff and an array of bagels and wraps. Two wraps ordered, one vegetarian and one chicken. Both tasted delicious and washed down with a flat white. Will happily pop back in.

Coffee is actually not too bad, but this place feels grubby, sticky and dirty. Been in two or three times but I've given up now. The floor is always covered in crumbs, tables inadequately wiped, staff stand around talking....there's plenty more coffee places in Stockbridge. And they don't seem to do the Pastel del Nata anymore.

Excellent coffee and a nice range of sweet treets. The service was a bit erratic when I went, but we will put that down to it being an obviously new team member. Stockbridge is awash with places to go for coffee and 33 is as good as any of them.

We LOVED the salted caramel brownies so much, that we decided to spent our last day in Scotland again in Edinburgh and go to this café. Unfortunately those were sold out :( ... If you are lucky and they have them in stock: Buy all of them! :D They are delicious

Went here for a quick sandwich and the waitress took around 20 minutes to get it ready despite the fact she was happily making coffees for everyone else . It doesn’t take 20 minutes to toast a sandwich in a relatively quiet cafe . Clearly poor customer service . A Faulty Towers situation at its best .

I have passed Cafe 33 numerous times as I am a local. Bought to filled rolls which were ok, but a wee bit pricey at £4.50. I also bought a slice of cake which was delicious.Waited a while to be served, as only one person was serving. I was going to leave but i was starving. Someone did leave as they waited a while.A few tweaks can make this a better local cafe for this local girl

Esta es una linda y pequeña cafetería que sirve comidas ligeras como sándwiches y sopas a un costo razonable. Orden en el mostrador y se lleva a su mesa. Disfruté mucho de mi sopa de lentejas y estaba feliz de estar en un ambiente cálido y acogedor mientras hacía frío y hacía mucho ruido.

The cafe is a lovely little spot for a cuppa. Serving a delicious cup of tea and chocolate brownie. The staff were very friendly and the cafe has a good atmosphere.

Supposedly a top rated for coffee shop, the actual experience was disappointing. My black americano coffee, was more a muddy and muddled brown. A bitter aftertaste didn't help.

A lovely cosy cafe in a great location. They have a great selection of both cakes and savoury food. Try the homemade bakewell slice.

Complimentary salad is leaves with one slice of red pepper, poor effort from their usual. Overal, better than Starbucks, not as good as pret.

If you get a seat by the window, this is a great little cafe to sit and watch the world go by. The coffee is reasonable; the food is good if a little expensive (wraps, sandwiches and cakes); and the staff are very friendly and happy to help. It's a good place to stop by if you are exploring the Stockbridge area, or walking along the Water of Leith to the Modern Art Galleries.

No.33 always produce an excellent cup of coffee and the staff are always welcoming and cheery. Prices are very reasonable and unpretentious in comparison to other coffee outlets in the area. It is always a delight visiting this cafe!

Popped into this cafe while walking the Water of Leith path. Grabbed a haloumi, guacamole, chili sandwich on a baguette for takeaway lunch. It was delicious! Glad I stumbled upon this neighborhood gem!

Sin duda, pagar una prima sin embargo aquí la comida es realmente bonito y un poco diferente a lo que se ofrece en el resto de la calle. Tuve un croissant rellenos - delicioso brownie de chocolate y una está bien, pero un poco dulce para mi gusto.

Yo había perdido la comida caliente en la cafetería cerca de donde yo había sido un paseo así nos dirigimos hacia Stockbridge. Yo estaba buscando como tenía frío sopa y este sitio anuncian con coco y espinacas lentejas escrito en la ventana. En un bowl llegó el esmalte con tres piezas de muy buen pan fermentado marrón y mantequilla. Yo estaba dispuesto a pagar £4 por eso.

Lovely cafe on the walk into the city with the dogs. Serving great coffee and cakes. We were able to take the dogs in and they enjoyed the relaxed environment.

A nice sandwich and decent coffee for lunch with pleasant service. It is good to see a café that understands that panino is the singular of panini. Our big mistake was to order only one of the Portuguese Custard Tart to share instead of one each. Don't follow our example - have one each, they are delicious.

Quirky little coffee shop with a great selection of tasty looking sandwiches and flat breads

Popped in for a takeaway flat white. It was delicious so we went back later and had another with a Portuguese custard. Delicious. It was packed both times- friendly but slow service but not all great things are fast

Un salto aquí porque la cola en costa era muy largo. Ha sido un par de veces antes, así que sabía que venden buen café. Precios está en el lado más caro teniendo en cuenta todas las cafeterías/cadenas en Stockbridge y el cargo de la tarjeta de crédito o débito (independientemente de crédito) es un poco mucho teniendo en cuenta que la mayoría de los otros sitios no te cobran. Si ser crítico el café quita tiempo en comparación con Nero/Costa/Starbucks (cerca), pero siempre parece ocupado lugar.

Encantador pequeño café peculiar. bocadillos eran deliciosos y un personal acogedor, pero la estrella del espectáculo fue, sin duda, el café. Volver ya sólo por como es o cremosa y suave sin ser demasiado pesado o amargo. Barman parecen realmente saben sus cosas también, con mucha atención al detalle claramente pagado a cada café.

Soy de Edimburgo pero no vive aqui y me encanta venir a Stockbridge, cuando en la ciudad. Pasó por aquí un lugar para comer y tenía la mejor comida que he probado en este viaje. Sandwich café era delicioso, era el mejor que he tenido en mucho tiempo.

Fui a comprar hoy aquí en un sándwich como me lo recomendó un amigo.

He sido un cliente habitual aquí desde que abrió, y he pasado una fortuna en cafés que solía ser uno de los mejores en Stockbridge. Recientemente han provocado cambios de personal continuó en cafés bastante incoherente. Esto ha sido agravado por un cambio de proveedor...

Traslado sencillo para una tarta y moca, muy impresionado con su torta de café y moka (pecan de nivel Melbourne! ). Estupendo para observar a la gente

Visitamos este wee café para un almuerzo ligero, es pequeño pero agradable. El café es precioso y el sándwiches tostados son muy agradable, con una buena selección de relleno saludable. Recomiendo una visita si estás cansado de tener el mismo viejo café en su habitual cadena de grandes. El único inconveniente es que están atornillados los bancos y mesas, en el suelo, que presentó un problema cuando dos madre llegó con bebés en cochecitos, espacio limitado por desgracia. De lo contrario, una gran experiencia.

Visiting twice, the coffee and cake have been consistently great. Milk alternatives are on offer here and they have vegan cakes - two things I like about the place. Their oat milk cappuccinos are fab!

Shopping in Stockbridge with a friend when suddenly there was a snow shower. Dived into this cafe which was the nearest, and it was a lucky discovery.The food all looked very fresh and tempting. Filled bagels, wraps, and sandwiches - which you can have toasted. Yummy looking selection of cakes. Good choice for vegetarians as well.I had a falafel wrap and my friend had a chicken sandwich - both toasted and served with salad. Delicious coffee as well. Prices were reasonable for Edinburgh.Just a small cafe with a limited amount of seating. The vases of daffodills on the tables were a nice touch. Friendly and fast service.Would definitely visit again when I am in the area.

Popped in here late in the afternoon for snack. Had a delicious smoked salmon filled bagel which they kindly toasted. Soup looked good and though selection of food quite restricted, lovely atmosphere and quirky use of space. Not a particularly big cafe, staff pleasant and friendly, seems to have lots of regulars popping in. In the heart of Stockbridge, near water of Leith.

We went to kill some time before our train back home and were greeted by 2 lovely, smiley girls, who were really nice and helpful! It's only a small cafe so there's not much room but luckily it wasn't too busy! We did walk passed a few days ago but didn't go in because it was busy! Really nice atmosphere and a selection of really nice looking sandwiches and bagels, though we didn't have any!100% would recommend!

Lovely spot in Stockbridge! Great atmosphere as well as coffee, pastel de Natas (Portuguese custard tarts) are the closest to what I've had in Portugal yet! Would highly recommend, the bagels and focaccia's look delicious. Will definitely be returning for one. Staff are lovely, very chatty and friendly.Also, dogs welcome!

Cafe 33 is located in Stockbridge and is a cost and friendly cafe. With its location near a crossing, the window seats make for perfect people watching. There is a good selection of sandwiches and cakes with a different soup most days. It's reasonably priced and there are bottles of tap water to drink as well.

We lived down the road from this place for like a month and went at least once a day. Really nice people and the best coffee around that we could find and we tried a lot. The prices are also very reasonable, which are even more remarkable how good everything is. It has funky food available but it's the coffee that kept us coming back. It has a great feel.

Stockbridge coffee houses are a plenty . We go here for good coffee great cakes and to read papers . The main draw is they allow dogs in .

Nice little place for a latte. Staff really friendly and prices are great. However, was unlucky enough to view the sandwiches being delivered from the dirty boot of a car without any covering. The food also sits in the cafe uncovered and with a constant flow of traffic and dust from the busy road, I would only ever drink the coffee. Shame as it all looks lovely.

Went there for a late lunch - my friend had a bacon bagel and I had a falafel wrap, both really good. The place is pretty small (15 seats?) and we ended up seating on the window bench, which was lovely since it happened to be a sunny day. We didn't have coffee but it looks really nice. Could have been cheaper but wasn't so bad; it also is quite centrally located. Recommended!

out for sunday shopping trip, fancied a bite to eat and this café hit the spot. great selection of bagels and sandwiches , lots of healthy options and the coffee was fab. staff very happy and welcoming which gives the place a nice feel about it. very, very good value for money! will be back :)

This place is just lovely. It's a perfect spot in Stockbridge for delicious coffee and some really nice lunch options. Great selection of sandwiches and always a tasty soup on offer. Nice place to visit with friends or bring your laptop/newspaper and relax. The staff are extremely friendly - highly recommend

I have been looking with my hostmum for a place to have a quick but nice lunch and we found this lovely rustic cafe that absolutely came up to our expectations. We both had the soup of the day (carrot lentils parsley) with bread and butter. Well, it tasted so fresh and yummy...good job!

Stopped by here for an early lunch and wasn't disappointed. Food was very tasty (mmm bagels) and coffee was good. Plenty of cakes on offer too. Only a little place but staff were nice and friendly :)

Visited on a quiet Sunday lunch time. We visited for coffee and weren't disappointed and the choice of food looked very good. Staff were good but didn't seem to interested and didn't get a great vibe.

A good atmosphere in this cafe and it's another good find in the Stockbridge area. Only stopped in for a couple of coffees which were good but the place had plenty more than just that to offer.

day one of our visit to Auld Reekie and we came across 33. four of us had tea and coffee, fresh sandwiches etc for £25 very good value and great welcome, we will go again.

I visit this cafe every weekend and every time the sandwiches or flatbreads are sublime. Very tasty guilt free and good sized portions without fail, the coffee is always top notch and made with passion by the staff and then then there are the cakes which never fail to please!Never had a complaint and been more times than I can count.

I had 3 months in Edinburgh and along with friendly service (no matter how busy) the espresso was great. I never had a bad one. Food not to shabby either. So when that que on Sunday at the stockbridge market is 20min long pop across the road for your fix. Not to mention the portuguese tarts.

Lovely coffee, great staff (excellent manager) and just a reall nice relaxed place to hang out in Stockbridge. We are regular visitors and will keep going so that should say a lot!

The cakes are lovely , the rolls and warps are tasty and well thought out . This is a small cafe but very welcoming and rustic feeling . The toilet was cleaner than many big chain coffee shop I have been in even though it was very small ( no good for changing nappies) .

Trying to find somewhere for a quick bite on the move, we passed No.33 and then swivelled round again, tempted in by the Portuguese custard tarts (yum) and salted caramel brownies (double yum). Just what the doctor ordered. Thank you!

Coffee great so was the choice of sandwiches and cakes. Very nice when stopping off in stockbridge. Not very big inside but managed to get in with four of us there.

Popped in here for a quick bite to eat with hubby, in a rare child-free 45 minutes one Saturday. Service was quick and food was tasty. The menu is fairly limited so best for lunches and light bites. Hubby had a toasted bagel with scrambled egg and bacon of which I had a very tasty sample bite. I opted for porridge with banana and honey - delicious.

Simple lunches - soups, sarnies, cakes and coffee. Quick and pleasnt. Nice atmosphere. Recommended. Nice area of Edinburgh too

small, friendly and the best coffee in Edinburgh.. okay, okay, in Stockbridge. There is a staggeringly good collection of cafes in Stockbridge so coming top is quite an achievement. The food is great and well priced.

We, a family of 5, had a lovely lunch in No. 33. Great coffee and very nice cakes. Nice and helpful staff as well. And not to forget the neighboorhood, Stockbridge. One should go there when in in Edinburgh.

Flat white and cappuccino not top but good quality. Room narrow and cramped, service friendly, prices on the high side, there's a charge for cards.

Went in for coffee which was very good as usual but was appalled once again to see the staff using bare hands to reorganise the sandwiches and cakes. This is basic hygiene for a place that sells food and as it is the third time I have seen this happen I will not be going back. Such a shame as the sandwiches and cakes are very nice but I prefer my food not to have been manhandled by bare hands before I eat it.

I was served by a very scruffy looking but very posh sounding man who refilled my sandwich using his dirty hands rather than using a pair of tongs after the filling fell out as he was putting it into a brown bag for me. He got oil and filling all over the outside of the bag which subsequently went all over my hands. I then was barged out of the way by a very odd looking customer which didn't help things. Is this place run by rude people for rude people?Food looks good however and it would be a great little place for takeaways if their staff were better trained. I'm not eating anything that has had someone's mucky hands all over the filling!

Lovely food and staff, great choice and 'custard tart' to die for. Busy cafe with great atmosphere. Staff happy to make sandiwch of your choice ingredients.

I'm lucky enough to live near Stockbridge where there are a number of nice places for a coffee and something yum, so when I saw that this place had popped up, I had to try it.I've been a few times now, and there are a couple of things that stand out.On the upside, the staff are really friendly, the coffee is lovely, the cakes and tarts are freshly baked interesting delights (a few different brownies, home made carrot cake, honey cake, friands, maple & pecan cake) and they have ever changing delicious filled wraps/focaccias/croissants (e.g. goats cheese & roasted veg, grilled halloumi & spiced chickpeas, falafel & peppers).I haven't awarded them 5 stars for a couple of reasons; the toilet is TINY and can be out of order, there is no way a wheelchair or buggy could even get near it, and even after a not-so-hot summer, it can get VERY hot in here (which night end up being a plus point in the winter?!).I will be back; they have really good Portuguese custard tarts and I do think that it has probably the best coffee in Stockbridge. Give it a bash, I don't think you'll regret it!

Coffees were good but not amazing, whereas the sandwiches (focaccia as I recall) were very enjoyable. Good location and friendly staff.

The coffee here is excellent and I have tried most coffee shops in Stockbridge. The filled croissants are extremely good and the prices are pretty good too. Try one of their Portuguese tarts. Two bites of heaven for £1.50. Would have given 5 stars but a couple of times I've been in the servers have used their bare hands to lift food onto plates. Just make sure you watch and ask for replacements if they do this.

It's a little know statistic that there are 17 coffee shops in Edinburgh for every inhabitant of that city and its a miracle that those inhabitants aren't all caffeinated to the verge of violence. Amongst the great number of coffee joints there are a few stellar ones where coffee snobs and hipsters tank up. Everyone knows of Artisan Roast, Lovecrumbs and Brew Lab but there's another that's a little outside the city centre and almost as good - No. 33 in Stockbridge. It's small, understated and refreshingly unpretentious. I've only ever had coffee and a brownie but both are worth the trek down down and back up the hill.

This is a very welcome addition to Stockbridge's coffee spots. The range of food available is limited but enticing. The pastelas are as good as in Lisbon and the coffee is excellent. Lovely serving staff. You can't pay with a card.

After driving for over two hours I was ready for a coffee and thought I would avoid the familiar chains. I had a latte and a pastry with raisins. There was a good choice of things to eat, but it was still too early in the morning for something too sweet. The pastry was average, but I did enjoy the coffee. It was very tasty. It is a very small place and people were looking in and turning away while I was there. The staff were friendly enough.

Greit sted for en rask lunch. Litt trist lokale, men hyggelig service og god mat. Kjekt å sitte i vinduet og se på livet utenfor.

I ate here with my boyfriend and we had a very nice time. We didn't really want to eat sandwiches at the beginning be the sight of those very sophisticated ones made us change our minds! It's delicious and the nicely filled, so much flavours! I really loved it and the bonus? My dog could come in with us!

Was tempted in by the sight of Portuguese Tarts, unfortunately we had eaten them by the time the coffee and tea arrived. Asked for sugar for the tea they didn't have any. Very disorganised, 4 staff and around 10 customers with the odd takeaway customer. Would I possibly buy the tarts to takeaway at the princely sum of £1.80 each I don't think so.

Popped in here for a hot drink on a cold day. The hot chocolate was lovely and absolutely huge! Huge selection of fresh, homemade cakes and sandwiches on offer. I had a slice of carrot cake which was a generous size and also delicious! Staff were really friendly and helpful and the place was really clean. One slight problem is that it is quite a small place, and finding somewhere to sit isn't guaranteed. Overall a really lovely little cafe!

This is quite a nice wee place. It is small, has a fairly limited range of food, uncomfortable chairs and friendly staff. I rather like it.I am not sure why this place works but it does. The staff are friendly which always helps and the place is noticeably clean, the food is tasty, but beyond that everything else is wrong, but I still like it. They offer a few different types of prepared croissants and a number of different cakes along with some soup. All of these are good and I believe are fresh that day. There is no kitchen onsite so you'll not be able to order any variations. They have the usual range of coffees and a small selection of alternatives. The place is small so you may end up sharing a table but they are ok with you sitting a while and taking your time. The place is very narrow so I doubt there is sufficient room if you use a wheelchair, or it'll be tight if you do. There isn't much else to say other than please give it a go as it is much better than it sounds/appears and is becoming a favourite.

This is a good addition to Stockbridge. The coffee was good and a good selection of Portuguese bakeries and the usual favourite. Seating available too

Perfect place to drop in for coffee. Delicious hot and cold snacks and blissful cakes. Small range on offer but all good.

Came upon this lovely cafe last week. My friend and I had tea and delicious Portuguese custard tarts. The staff were friendly and I can't wait to go back some time for lunch as the line up was mouth-watering. It also appeared to be dog friendly ....? Looking forward to my next visit!
