ElmRow Cafe in Edinburgh, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We had a really enjoyable breakfast here. The staff were really friendly and very accommodating of our baby and buggy. The food was delicious- glad we found this little spot.

Some confusion with orders on tables around us. Decent pot of tea. Shakshuka more baked eggs. Chipotle chicken wrap so mild we thought it must have been wrong order. Good fries.

Breakfast with friends here was a pleasant experience. Good choices, well cooked and we all raved about the coffee served here

Wonderful coffee and even better service at a fair price. This is a little gem at the top of leith walk with such a cosy decor. Big thank you to the staff working today for the most lovely service :)

In Edinburgh for a few days and tried here for Breakfast. Lovely friendly staff and affordable food with fast service 👍🏼

Been here a handful of times already and always pleased with the customer service, it’s been a bit more busy today but things look like they’re moving smoothly and our drinks and food came to us at a good pace. Food is always lovely as ever. The environment/atmosphere is always friendly and cozy to sit in and have a brunch date.

Fantastic small cafe, delicious food and lovely staff. Menu was varied, with healthy and unhealthy options. Only down side was lack of space!

Great food, lovely host, nice location. Definitely recommend! I had the classic cheeseburger which was very tasty.

Eat. Drink. Relax. A true gem of a cafe with very friendly staff. Close enough to the city centre for tourists but far enough away to be full of charm and character. Always busy especially in the summer, is always the best compliment you can give. I am often here to enjoy a brunch and coffee whilst doing some writing. The lunches are always fabulous too. Delicious menu at reasonable prices. The exterior has been recently upgraded following the extension to the Edinburgh Tram line. Highly recommended, if you can find a spare table.

Quick breakfast before an early train out of town. Yummy eggs, croissants, coffee, and teas. We went twice this trip as service was excellent.

We had a lovely and delicious breakfast before leaving Edinburgh. Hospitality, atmosphere, service, staffing kindness and Last but not least the food was great / delicious! Next time I will definitely come back for a breakfast again!

Absolutely disastrous. We waited more than 1.5 hours and were always put off without compensation. During this time we could see how others left the café again and again for lack of hospitality and that tables were not cleared for long periods of time, so that more guests left the restaurant again. The dishes that came to the other tables were wrong or something was missing. There was no table where everything was right. When the food came to us it was cold and tasteless and lacked the side dishes that were on the menu. A portion was also scraped together from the last supplies and much too small. When asked about this we received a £0.60 discount and a hearty speech from the proprietor. We have never experienced anything like this.

We were blown away by the positive attitude of the staff and the good, down on earth, food. Breakfast (all day) and Lunch - items offer a great variaty to choose from. Dairy free wasn't an issue at all! We tried cheesecake-brownie, chicken wrap and avocado-egg-sourdough-toast. Finger-lickin' good!

Great cafe, great coffee, great vibe, great service. We will be back to try out the snacks another day. Wonderful hidden find at the top of leith walk.

The service and food was great. We ordered Scottish breakfast, poched eggs and pancake. Loved the retaurant. It was a cute little place perfect for my family.

Nice quaint little breakfast nook. Great service, delicious food, and wonderful vibe. Love the jazz music playing in the background.

Group of us staying in edinburgh for a few nights, called in for some cold drinks and man behind counter was great as well as giving great local recommendations for food!!!

Let us in as before they were open, served us great food and amazing coffee. Would absolutely recommend to anyone and everyone.

Beautiful cosy place, nice staff an amazing food. Made the morning beautiful for us. Try the Scottish breakfast and dirty chai here.

Very nice scottish breaksfast, with jeans, sauvage, egg, mushrooms, tomates, black pudding and of course Haggis. People are nice. I recommand :)

Good atmosphere, friendly staff, and amazing food and coffee. A lovely location and building. Would definately recommend to a friend!

I’ve been coming here for ages! A lovely, lovely vibe with fabulous food and excellent coffee. All very reasonably priced. There’s seating inside and outside. Really friendly staff who are attentive snd cheery.

After the Beltane Fire last night, we were desperate for a good menu and warm comfortable seating. Elm Row is both. No rush, super friendly staff, upstairs, downstairs, and outside seating options. Excellent menu options. I know because we ordered half of it, plus brownies...

Best spot for breakfast ever! Great atmosphere, delicious food and amazing people. They were really accommodating and helped us giving our friend an amazing birthday. The food is really really good and the cakes are just marvelous! 100/10 would recommend!

Nice varied menu, but we went for the full breakfast. Good quality and well cooked food presented beautifully. The milkshakes are great, coffee was full bodied and we even finished with a lovely peanut butter brownie - spectacular. The service was phenomenal and the venue...

Daughter and I visited for a late lunch, just because we were passing, and had the best food we have tasted in ages. Her crispy chicken in a bun and my cheeseburger couldn't have been better. The accompanying potato chips were superb and the side...

We needed a much needed breakfast after a family celebration and weren’t disappointed! Made to feel most welcome and even accommodated our suitcases! Thank you!

Food was absolutely delicious and the service was really friendly! The cafe was really busy so we tried to sit outside, but then it started raining and they were very accommodating and it’s moving us inside! Definitely recommend 😊

We stopped for breakfast 2x this week. Excellently prepared food, poached eggs were beautiful. Friendly service.

We were there two days in the row. Delicious breakfast and very nice service everyday. I recommend going there very much.

It was fantastic! From the first moment on we were glad that we didn‘t go anywhere else! The staff is unbelievably friendly and kind. Anyone who wants an excellent and relaxed breakfast should visit the Elm Row Cafe. My friend and I will certainly come...

The staff is SO friendly and the food is delicious! Best Latte around. Delicious scones and breakfast bun. We loved it so much we went back the next day.

Visited with my boyfriend during the Fringe. It was raining outside and this was a cozy little refuge. I had an Americano and a berry smoothie and both were very tasty. The vibe was lovely!

We ate breakfast on our last day in Edinburgh and I really liked it. I chose the vegetarian one and it was better than I had expected and my husband chose the bread with egg and avocado. The coffee was really good and big and...

A lovely little cafe. A good place for breakfast or brunch. Good selection of well cooked dishes presented by friendly staff. Small and always busy but worth a wait

Visited here one morning with some friends. The welcome, from who I presume is the owner, was warm and welcoming. I ordered a latte and the full Scottish breakfast. For my first Scottish breakfast, it was a treat. The breakfast comes with bacon, sausages, haggis,...

We found this little cafe around the corner from the hotel (The Cairns Hotel) we were staying at — sick of hotel buffets. We also found that most restaurants in this area are closed for breakfast on the weekends, except for Starbuck’s, so it was...

We stopped by here as it was near our hotel and we didn’t want to get the hotel breakfast. So glad we did. Great food with great service and, as vegetarians, we were well catered for.

Fabulous cafe for a tasty brunch. Enjoyed full Scottish, others had full stuffed morning rolls. Delicious, hot, good friendly service. Just down road from Courtyard Marriott, John Lewis & the playhouse. Some seating outside, inside downstairs & ano pleasant seated space upstairs. Would go again.

Perfect for afternoon coffee and tea and pastry break. Small and cozy. Mostly locals. Nice pastry selection…………………..

We had a delicious breakfast here before starting a long day in Edinburgh. Service was friendly and quick. There are a few tables, as well as take away service. We ordered eggs Royale and the full Scottish breakfast. Both were delicious.

Wonder friendly staff...tasty food ...highly recommend full Scottish breakfast was AMAZING..TRY IT!!

Wonderful food - lovely staff. We have breakfasted here two mornings running while in Edinburgh and both times it has been superb. Freshly cooked to order. I would suggest to the people who want fast food to go to a fast food chain establishment! We...

Visited for breakfast. Food was outstanding quality, as was the coffee. You can tell real care has been put in to sourcing the ingredients and cooking them. A very relaxed atmosphere but LONG wait for food (at least 40 minutes for breakfast), but it was...

My wife and I visited here for breakfast on Sunday morning. Our order was taken promptly and our drinks (tea, coffee, juice) arrived fairly shortly thereafter. That's where the good stuff ends. We then waited around 45 minutes for a full Scottish breakfast and eggs...

I got a quote ages ago to have q turkish meal at this place, where I came before to buy wine. I don't regret it at all and recomend to all of you. Good service, good food and vibrant atmosphere inside the shop. The music...

Very disappointed to see staff not wearing masks. This is a legal requirement in Scotland. Covid is not a joke.

We came for breakfast during our trip to Edinburgh. We both ordered the Full Scottish Breakfast which was delicious. Staff were welcoming and friendly and service was fast. We would definitely visit again and recommend to others.

Entered to a frosty reception from the somewhat uninterested chap behind the counter (6/11/2021). I really got the impression that our custom was not required. I had the vegetable panini - the chips were hard and the panini was dry and bland. My friend's toastie...

Called for breakfast on the last day of our Edinburgh trip, the service was efficient and friendly. The food was all freshly prepared and the the eggs royale and eggs Benedict were particularly good. Good sized portions and fairly priced, would certainly recommend.

The coffee is great, the food is great and the staff are always so welcoming and friendly! I wish I lived close by so I could stop in for lunch more often

The service was amazing - I was standing outside in the cold waiting for a seat, and they kindly set up a small table for me inside! The coffee and sweets were great as well, and food looked delicious!

This little café has been transformed into a place you'll want to go back to. The staff are lovely, the food is both delicious and generous, and the tea/coffee are of high quality. At £5.95, the wraps/panini are more expensive that your usual café fair,...

This cafe has been around for a few years, and used to be a take away that I enjoyed getting lunch at when I was in the area. I was very pleasantly surprised today to find that it has transformed into a fantastic little Turkish/Scottish...

My friend and I ate lunch here for the first time: good food, pots of tea and really friendly courteous staff. We both agreed to meet there regularly, They only have five or six tables and also do take away. A great little find.

Cute little cafe serving pots or tea, coffee, pastries and a full snack/sandwich menu. Just out of the town centre but close to bars and pubs. At the time of visiting they had outdoor seating.

Very nice atmosphere, flat white was brilliant and I’m very fussy with coffee. Good size portions of food and great value, staff was very friendly and I would highly recommended .

We have eaten lunch here many times, Very tasty wraps and panini. Lovely cake. Very friendly service. A lovely little cafe.

Lovely little cafe near the playhouse theatre, friendly staff, lovely wraps and biscuits well worth a visit

Had a really nice and good value vegetarian breakfast here. Delicious! And open new years day - thanks guys!

A local cafe with a decent selection of dishes and good coffee. Had the full scotch breakfast, which was good for the price.

Went to this cafe for breakfast. They serve good warm breakfast dishes, like omelette, porridge or sausage and eggs. Good coffee and decent prices. They also offer a selection of pre-made sandwiches and wraps to grab on the go.

I popped into this café for a quick lunch on Thursday 18th October. I ordered a panini and breakfast tea with milk on the side. When the tea arrived it was a teabag in a cup with a pot of hot water. Now anyone who...

Enjoyed a delicious omelet and smoked salmon at a reasonable price in this small eatery. The service was friendly and efficient.

A small coffee shop and eatery in Edinburgh's city centre; it's near the intersection of Elm Row and London Road, and a very short walk from Leopold Place. The food is tasty, the portions are generous, and it's freshly prepared to order. The coffee is...

We were staying near by and upon check out from the hotel needed a hearty lunch before our train journey home. We both enjoyed the lentil soup (huge portion) and our sandwiches- our eyes were definitely bigger than our bellies. The menu was varied and...

I have never been made to feel more welcome. There are only five tables, plus some outside, and it is not the most luxurious cafe in the City but it has a great atmosphere. This is mainly due to the cheerful couple serving. The food...
