I love this place, It’s my favourite place to visit when I go Edinburgh. The food is amazing and their coffee is incredible, why can’t the big chains make coffee like this? The place is always relaxed and has a good atmosphere. Trying to find an excuse to get back up there as soon as possible.

Really friendly local business that cares a lot about their regulars with a great service to everyone that walks through the door. I had their lentil soup which had so much flavour and the Turkish Coffee was served in the traditional cezve which is hard to find in Edinburgh. Would definitely come back again!

We recently visited this cafe, and unfortunately, it didn’t live up to expectations. The food was quite disappointing, especially considering the high prices. For instance, we were charged £4.75 for just a bit of scrambled egg, which had a strange smell—so much so that my baby refused to eat it. Additionally, £2.75 for two pieces of bread felt way too expensive for what we received. While the waiter was just okay, there was another man—likely the boss—who made the experience even less enjoyable. He was overly talkative and came off as somewhat rude, which detracted from our visit. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend this place, as the quality of both the food and service was disappointing for the cost.

We were staying at Leith and some locals told us about Cafè Truva for the best coffee around. We had our coffee for takeaway and was pleasantly surprise the we only had to pay £1 for a cup as it was their 26th Anniversary! The staff were lovely and the interior decor was sooo nice, I felt like I could stay there all morning. Coffee was amazing and will definitely pick one up again tomorrow

We had the Turkish breakfast and the Turkish Meze, both of which were really really good. We'll definitely be back again soon to try some other items on the menu.

Unauthentic food, if I was served Lidl Hummus I’d’ve been happier. Their Hummus is dreadful to say the least. Man the whole meze plate tasted like it came straight from a prison🤢. To top it off, when it came time to pay, the owner rudely asked, "Don’t you want to leave a tip since we don’t charge a service fee?" right in front of my friends. How unprofessional, tacky and cheap can you get?

Great atmosphere. Service was good, waiter was pleasant and friendly. Food looks amazing and there is defiantly more care and attention when came to the Turkish dishes, which to be expected. Though the English breakfast was underwhelming, small portion size with only one piece of the standard ingrediencies e.g. bacon, sausages, hash browns. I usually expect two pieces for some of these. So, I recommend only ordering the Turkish dishes.

Two days ago, my wife and I had breakfast here. Unfortunately, we did not like the breakfast and we were disturbed by the fact that the employee did not greet us with a smile. He gave us two small breads for breakfast for two people and when I asked for more, he immediately added it to the account. We go to have breakfast every week in London. This morning, their menu is richer and the prices are more affordable. We went to another place that serves Turkish breakfast. We really liked their welcome and friendliness. Please be more friendly to people. At least saying "hello, where are you from, where did you come from?" can make people happy, bye bye.

Quintessentially Turkish: this charming establishment is doing everything right. The service is outstanding, food sublime and decour charming. The entire staff are passionate and friendly, however, Kerem is the best hospitality worker on planet earth. He’s the single best maker of coffee ever, as well as an all-round legend of a human. What else is there to say? Truva is just simply the epitome of family-owned multicultural small business brilliance. Stunning Turkish flavours with a hint of local influence. And it’s all been achieved with something that’s been around for centuries: brilliant Scottish ingenuity. If you haven’t eaten here, you haven’t really been to Edinburgh.
