Di Giorgio's in Edinburgh, City of

Near our apartment we found this cute place. Super cappuccino, coffee and cakes! The guys are very nice and kind. Try it!

One of the favourite places for brunch in Edinburgh. The staff is just the loveliest.

Super cozy place, with lovely personalities behind the counter.🌟🌟🌟We had take away breakfast Buns with our own choice of contents and coffee with pumpkin syrup. Yummy and left in a good mood. Can warmly recommend the place.

Lovely restaurant with rustic, traditional cooking. The Pasta Assasina was well balanced due to the addition of the burrata. The owner, Ivan is a delight to chat to!

Superb place and experience. Great food and coffee

Really tasty food , such good service from all the staff. Coffee & cakes were also tasty.

Easily the worst customer service I have ever received. Italian man with glasses needs to learn how to speak to people. If you want to ruin your day, go here. AVOID

Here I tried the best coffee in all of Edinburgh, a must visit. Good breakfasts and very good service and friendly

What a lovely local place, staff were so friendly, chatty and the coffee was brilliant. Will be back it's minutes from our house. Breakfast was just so good!

The food was super delicious and the service was amazing too! The owner of the restaurant is really lovely ❤️

First time here. I booked 11am table on a Sunday. This was done via email and the owner responded quickly. Lovely little cafe close to Botanical gardens. The food was and drinks were delicious and we were well looked after. One thing I did not like much was that fact that the place is not ventilated enough, so our clothes smelled from the kitchen/cooking.

Excellent cafe food with a chilled out vibe. Near Botanic gardens Focaccia BLTs were fresh and good value for money Will go back

Unfortunately haven't had the chance to try this place. Once they were full which is fair but this time they had tables available but I was turned down as I wanted to sit in for a coffee and not for lunch. Don't understand turning business away when there are free tables. I wasn't going to hog a table for hours. I was told "Not for coffee, darling". If you don't have a table that's ok, but speak to people like they are adults, don't patronize people like children .Went somewhere else where I was welcome.

Yummy coffee, friendly owner and staff.

Such a friendly and accommodating guy, excellent coffee and cakes

A delicious experience. Wonderful food, relaxing environment and warm welcome all made the visit delightful.

We are ‘fussy foodies’ and all 4 of us rate this food as 5*. We also enjoyed the coffee and excellent service. 100% recommend for lunch and brunch.

Absolutely love this place for a breakfast or lunch with a nice wine. Whether you are by yourself on in a group the staff are wonderful and will look after you well. The perfect mix of Scottish and Italian food. Not to mention the amazing selection of home baked cakes and goodies. Always pop in when I’m passing or grab a takeaway when I’m tight for time.

We had a party of six for a late lunch. Full menu served all day. One of us chose from the breakfast menu. All dishes we had were excellent. Great attentive service.

So delicious! The staff was wonderful and the service was great. Highly reccomend!!

While out for a walk stopped off for a late breakfast

Really lovely pitstop with friends prior to visiting the Botantic Gardens. Lovely quality coffee!

below was the excellent review I gave before the experience I had today. I took my mum here for brunch and the man was rude beyond belief. He barked at us that you now had to reserve a table and welcomed us to wait 2hours. I'm not sure why but he was extremely aggressive and verging on nasty. it's fair to say we wouldn't want to go back and swiftly went across the road where we brunched and were treated with warmth and respect. Not sure if the "man" in di Giorgio was aware he treated his good customers like dogs but he did. I feel strongly about it hence why I'm updating my review today! I've been here a few times, it's small and beautiful. spotless with the most friendly family run staff. All products and food are of the highest quality. theres a good menu and late breakfast brunch menu. The taste of the food is worth the visit in a warm cozy atmosphere. Dog friendly... why I first visited with my wee chihuahua. All cakes etc are home made and quite simply delicious! love it. beautiful and perfect & close to town centre with the buses stopping a few stops from princess street. 5* Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 Recommended dishes Biscuit Homemade, English Breakfast, Waffles with Banana, Lasagne Recommendation for vegans available Vegetarian options big breakfast and paninis lasagna and pastas. cakes Dietary restrictions staff will ask.

A beautiful place with delicious food and lovely views through the window. I had the dg bagel, and it was one of the best breakfasts out I've had in a while.

Fantastic cafe, great food at reasonable prices. Great ambiance too

Rude attitude, got in the place to ask for a table and he told us to wait outside up until he is available. By the time the queue ended and the area was free I got inside to ask again very politely and he was speaking to me and moving around the area, not even looking at me. Just for a simple question if we can get a coffee to wait outside. When he managed to look at me he told me that he was serving some other guys behind me.... Rudest attitude in Edinburg ever!!!!

Never tasted the food but the rudness of the guy infront it was too bitter

We came for breakfast and some coffee and we were delighted with this cozy atmosphere, friendly service and super tasty food! I suppose it’s a family cafe? Because it feels like home 🥰

What a great place to go for brunch but make sure you book in advance, as we saw numerous people turned away. Food was plentiful, a wide selection and very very good. The staff were very friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Will definitely be back

Great space! Good reception for children

Best coffee and staff in the world!

Exceptional service as always! Very welcoming atmosphere, the place was very clean and the coffees were 10/10.

Great find! Food was superb as was the service and coffee. Lovely place and will 100% be back.

Nice and quaint little spot to have breakfast! I had the feta and avocado toast and it was very good, not to mention the cappuccino, which was so beautifully presented that I almost felt sorry for drinking it. Lovely owner and service as well. 100% recommended.

Spot on from the minute you step in, until you leave. Set up and deco is absolutely beautiful, smiles in abundance from members of staff. The professionalism of the ladies and gents involved in this wee gem of an endeavour are second to none. And the product, what to say about the product…. All freshly picked from the local market daily, honestly hit them once and it’ll become unmissable forever.

Lovely food, lovely wine and really lovely staff. After a busy and hungry day, they changed my world!

Great food, warm friendly and welcoming, will definitely return

I've popped in for a delicious coffee a few times on my travels, but I've never stopped in for food. It turns out that I've been missing out! The service was genuine, friendly, and funny. I had an amazing breakfast roll, and the homemade cakes are pleasing to the eyes and tummy. Definitely found my new favourite place. Grazie a tutti

Amazing breakfast with the best ever potato scone, cooked to perfection. Such good service, very clean toilet with nice soap too. Recommendation = on the way out, you will pass by the baking ..... you MUST stop & choose something to takeaway. My selection of cannoli were outstanding. Thank you so much Di Giorgio's, a great start to the day.

Superb breakfasts and a very warm welcoming atmosphere and service. Great to see a local independent business doing so well!

Delish and pet friendly so will be back with my dawg 🥰

My experience at di Giorgio café today was disappointing. Upon asking for the restroom, I was met with rude hostility, being told it was for customers only. The staff could have handled the situation more politely. Had they kindly informed me instead of addressing me with anger, I would have gladly purchased something, as the café did look lovely, and I was in desperate need of a restroom. However, the unwelcoming attitude deterred me from supporting the business further. Additionally, when I asked for the nearest public restroom, they simply pointed me in the wrong direction, rather than providing helpful directions to an actual public facility. It's a missed opportunity for the café to turn a simple request into a positive customer interaction.

Di Giorgio has become our go-to spot in the neighbourhood for excellent brunch. It’s family owned and run, and the owners are just lovely, friendly people. The food is delicious, coffee is solid, service is always a pleasure. I love the high ceilings and the fact that they leave the door and windows open on nice days. Di Giorgio is a gem. 💎

What lovely attentive staff, set handily on the high street but has a lovely view

Fantastic! Quality breakfast for a family of 4. Food was top quality (no average ingredients!) met with excellent service and attentive friendly customer care. We'll be back. A lot of businesses could learn from them! Well done and thank you.

Outstanding food quality. This small eatery is run like a Swiss watch by a very charming couple. Very helpful and attentive to all customers. Best eatery I’ve been into this year! Thank you, Shame about the traffic wardens 😕

Long thin cafe popular and nicely decorated. Staff are welcoming and attentive and there is a good menu. It was very hard to relax however as the door remains open and the cafe is really cold. It was a pity that the food was also cold (drinks were hot).

Warm , friendly staff and owners , Food piping hot . Delicious coffee and cakes .

First class food, coffee and service, staff in this place are absolutely golden.

Phenomenal. Super dog friendly and the freshest, tastiest food. We had pasta, arancini, and got some desserts for takeaway. 10/10 will be returning soon.

Brilliant service and delicious Classic Bruschetta and Chips! Full of taste and goodness. Thank you. Will be back for sure!

Amazing food and friendly service

Met two friends on Mon at 1pm. The place was heaving with folks waiting on a table or ordering take out. We were sat at the very front in amongst all this and people were encroaching right onto our table. We ordered & had our drinks there. We were all surprised but very pleased to be moved into the restaurant area. Stunning brick interior, big windows & spacious. Food delivery was quick & all 3 plates were cleared before I could grab photos! Not normally a pasta gal, I did really enjoy properly cooked DG Pasta. Ratio of sauce, meat & veg complimented each other but allowed the main ingredient still have the lead role. Friends had a ciabatta & chips, and another pasta dish. Shared a pistachio cake which left us somewhere between satisfied-very full! A black coffee, cappuccino & latte were all good but a little on the cold side. Two female staff were lovely & despite being super busy, still endured us in some banter. They will even make up traditional popular pasta dishes such as carbonara despite not being part of the menu. There is a few veggie choices but they are so lovely I think they would omit the meat. Didn’t use the toilet but the main restaurant has plenty space to remove a chair to accommodate & manoeuvre a manual wheelchair. Would like to revisit & try more & the big variety of cakes but suggest booking if at a busy time. 3 mains, 4 hot drinks & a cake £56

Excellent food at a very reasonable price

Beautiful little cafe with amazing food, coffee and service. The waffles, burger, breakfasts, cakes and cookies are absolutely delicious - really everything we had was finger-lickingly delicious. The service is equally great and we will be back for sure!

The best pasta ever! I’ve never seen my 3 yo daughter eating without pauses and such a speed. And there was a big plate of spaghetti Bolognese enough even for me that she finished. 😀 I took the meat pasta and it was simply amazing. The coffee was great as well as the red house wine which fitted the pasta perfectly. The service was friendly and fast which is great when you are 😀. Can’t wait to taste the famous tiramisu next time!

Trevligt cafe med många godsaker att välja på

Love this place. Amazing staff, friendly atmosphere and the coffee and cakes are 👌👌👌

This is a little gem of a place. It’s our favourite breakfast spot. Great coffee, BEST service, food is consistently good every single time we have been. Delicious array of cakes and baked goods. Definitely one of the best cafes In Edinburgh.

Lovely little place. Excellent service, delicious food and great atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!!

Visit here frequently and yet to have a bad experience. Food has always been excellent and the place has a really good feel to it. Prices are fair and staff are always attentive. Definitely one of the best breakfasts I’ve ever had and the rest of menu is delicious as well. Well worth a visit if you’re local to Edinburgh or just passing through! Avoid on a Saturday morning as the place tends to be booked out by a local tuning club.

This was recommended by my Italian friend, so I popped in yesterday. It feels cosy with earthy coloured decor and the restaurant was buzzing with customers. Initially, I was asked to wait for 40 minutes - but somehow, a very attentive and charming staff managed to squeeze a seat for me in good 5 minutes.( perhaps due to my hungry face) I ordered pasta with meatballs and a side salad. Although I might have ordered quite a simple dish- I could understand why this place was so full of customers. Both the salad and pasta were perfectly seasoned without compromising all the fresh ingredients. It’s really a charming place where I’d like to try many more dishes.

Terrific place for breakfast in Stockbridge. Excellent coffee, brilliant food, friendly and efficient service. What more could you want?

We had a lovely lunch in Di Giorgio. Everything we ordered is excellent!

I never leave reviews especially not bad ones but honestly I was so taken aback and upset about my experience here. I was here around 9:45 this morning. It was raining and I was carrying my toddler in a baby carrier. I needed to just pop in somewhere to buy my toddler a snack and I wanted to get a quick coffee. There is a long inside bench I guess for people to wait for take away orders and also basically all the tables but 1-2 were currently free. One of the people who worked there said ‘can I help you?’. I said ‘oh do you mind if I sit down’? He said no I’m afraid we’re completely booked. I indicated the long bench and the empty tables but he proceeded to show me a piece of paper which I assume had lots of booking names on it and didn’t listen when I tried to explained I just needed somewhere to wait for 5 minutes so I could give my toddler a snack somewhere that wasn’t in the street in the rain. He then appeared to decide to just ignore me and continued a conversation he’d been having with someone else. So I ordered a coffee and flapjack off another person behind the counter. When I explained to her that I would be taking my order to sit on a bench outside she said we could sit and have them on the inside bench. I explained that is all I had been asking for all along. However by then I felt so uncomfortable and upset and also worried that my toddler might make a mess and I didn’t know how they’d react so we just did go and sit outside in the rain.

Brilliant service, excellent coffee, lovely food, superb staff! Go hear and avoid the other local cafes.

Lovely Italian café owned by Ivan and Nadia in Canonmills. Amazing breakfasts especially the French toast. Great pasta dishes which you can also take away. Some of the best coffee in Edinburgh and Nadia makes fabulous cakes.

The staff's behavior was disappointing, reflecting poorly on the overall visit. They were unfriendly and unaccommodating, making for an unpleasant outing. I’m originally from Italy and I can assure you that it has no taste of Italy.

Amazing service, Amazing food. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Just lovely. Great food, a friendly team of staff and a cosy atmosphere.

Genuinely friendly and super attentive staff. Great pasta dishes and a cosy atmosphere. Highly recommended for lunch.

All round fantastic. Food, service, choice in menu.

Always have a superb experience here - Italian + Family run +~ beautiful place + amazing service = win all round. I've always loved this place/space - the fact it opens for breakfast/brunch/lunch - closing at 4pm somehow makes it feel special. Had a beautiful early lunch here with my elderly aunt& uncle & the staff accommodates my request to be put in a quieter table - so we got the corner table at the back overlooking the sunny tenement back garden - very Edinburgh - very lovely. Some delectable pasta dishes + a perfect eggs royale, & delicious arancini too. An delicious On the day my cousin & I could not speak highly enough of the service offered by one of the serving staff - make us feel so welcome, attentive without being overbearing - & reacted with measured enthusiasm to our menu choices (a blond female in 20s from memory :) - thank you to her for making it a special occasion (it was). One suggestion - I wold maybe like to see a more Italian & wider range of cakes than currently on offer - canoli/tiramisu etc. That small comment aside - a massive thank you for a great experience. Forgot to add - prices here are good value too.

Heel lekker geluncht in een mooi ingerichte zaak, vlakbij Water of Leith wandeling tussen Britannia en Dean Village. Vriendelijk personeel, vooral de uitbaatster is erg gastvrij.

Not surprised at so many great reviews. Service friendly and helpful from all staff we encountered :) Every meal served to our table of 4 (and the table of 4 next to us, we were nosey) looked and tasted lovely. Highly recommended. Plus, should you wish to discuss rare watches see the owner ;)

There are a few places to get breakfast in the area, but Di Giorgio’s is the best by far. Lovely staff, great coffee, and a relaxed atmosphere. Their lunch menu is also delicious, offering a variety of classic homemade Italian cuisine. Well worth a visit!

I have found my new home Cafe away from home. The owners, their staff, the coffee & food are all 10/10. I mean you are made to feel welcome immediately & that’s then complimented by the great atmosphere & the delicious food & coffee.

We visited this lovely friendly cafe four times during our stay in Edinburgh. The food and hospitality is second to none. You are made to feel very welcome and the atmosphere is excellent. Highly recommended.

We met friends for a weekday brunch at Di Giorgio’s at their suggestion. It’s a small place with a big welcome - friendly, efficient service with a wide selection of brunch offerings at good value prices. Between us we had a full breakfast, a filled roll, eggs Florentine and my own French Toast with crispy bacon and lashings of maple syrup. That was probably the French toast I have ever had. We’ll definitely be back.

What a little gem this place is. Fantastic staff, and setting. I had the all day breakfast. Best I’ve had outside of the States. Wife had the lasagna - she said it was perfect. Will be back.

There is a real sense of community in this place, you are made to feel so welcome. That's a great plus on top of really tasty food, both dine-in and takeaway

Lovely cafe, with pleasant and attentive staff. It's cosy and comfortable inside and staff were relaxed and welcoming. The breakfast menu was great and the portions were generous! The food itself was superb, couldn't reccomend enough.

Super accueil et très bonnes pasta ! Grazzie

Very friendly staff; very tasty food; very relaxing vibe. A very good place to enjoy time!

Amazing food, wonderful friendly service. Best pasta this side of Italy. Wonderful wines and coffee. Highly recommend!

Popped in for breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff fitted me in though very busy with bookings . Excellent eggs royale - though bread was cut a bit thick.

Lovely place and staff. I love their Italian coffee and the food is high quality 👌

Very friendly, great choices, good coffee.

Amazing food, friendly staff and great value for money. Will definitely be back!

Very much enjoyed breakfast here with friendly staff

The owners and staff are so friendly, always smiling and great service. Italian coffee is amazing and the food is excellent

Friendly staff, nice ambience, and quality food. Table was a bit wobbly and door open which meant the cafe was cold. No 😷 stipulated 👍 Would recommend to anyone wanting a nice breakfast, and there is 3 hour parking at nearby Tesco's if your doing a shop too.

Love the food, coffee and staff here.

Great little Italian restaurant, with some excellent dishes to choose from! 5 of us dined out for lunch, wonderful service, nice atmosphere. Would definitely recommend and go back again. Visiting from Sydney.

Lovely place to have Lunch, staff very welcoming. Food excellent also.

An excellent meal at lunchtime with family. Wine really good!!!!!

Very good cooked breakfast, cheery and funny staff, and a really lovely setting.

Staying nearby we called in for a coffee one day - were made very and were tempted by the lunch menu. Delicious soup / coffee and cake. We came back later in the week for brunch - definitely recommend the Eggs benedict. Lovely small cafe with atmosphere and great to see somewhere so popular with local people.

Best value breakfast in Edinburgh so far 😊
