Fortuna Coffee Bar in Edinburgh, City of

Excellent overall, 100% recommended!

Very very delicious Melt tuna 10/10 They were very nice and there was a delay and they compensated us with free coffee You must go through it Its only drawback is that its location is very small and discreet

Gorgeous vibe, cheerful staff, delicious food.

Great little coffee house, ladies serving coffee were very nice and friendly 🙂

It's my imagination for more than a week in London that I have never tasted anything better than their breakfast. Thank you ♥️😍

Cute little cafe slightly away from the busy High Street. They have a different type of menu from most cafes which enticed us in. The food was lovely and the staff were very hospitable. Two small issues were the fruit was not fresh but instead frozen, and like others have said the coffee is ok! It’s worth a visit though to try a different menu

GO! We absolutely LOVED Fortuna. We came to Edinburgh on our honeymoon and fell in love with this coffee shop (sad we found it later in our trip, honestly). The food is fantastic, the coffee is wonderful and the people working there are sweet, kind and so friendly. The avocado & hummus toast was £11 and the chai latte £4 and both well worth the money. You don’t get shorted on food! We highly recommend Fortuna for breakfast/brunch!!

The staff was really really nice and welcoming and the food and drinks are awesome

Great cafe, fast and friendly service Both the toast with scrambled egg and smoked salmon and the toast with spicy feta avocado are very good. The quality of the coffee is excellent both in the long black (double espresso but shorter than a standard Americano) and the flat white

Very nice little cafe, their food and service are second to none

Super great breakfast. Super nice and attentive staff :)

A wonderful little home in the heart of Edi. The Cheese Toastie and all their diffrent types of tea is a wonderful walm hug in the winter months. All the staff were walm and attentive and don't mind a question or two. If your visiting Edi or just live across the road, come and feel at home in this little cafe!

Lovely spot for brunch with great coffee and food options! I had the berry bowl and their seasonal option of a lavender latte, both were fantastic!

One of my favorite places to eat in Edinburgh. Very laid back and friendly service.Those cheese toasties are to die for !

I'm sorry for the bad review but the coffee was okey-ish, the bacon was very salty and too crispy, the bread was soaked in the bacon fat and the taste was overall nothing special. The person in the kitchen is a very loud individual which made the atmosphere rather unpleasant.

The food was amazing and I had lavender coffee for the first time (Latte with lavender syrup), it was sooo good. Definitely recommend. The girl who served us was very sweet.

The place was really cute and the people working there were nice. I had a takeaway order so a sit in experience might be different. I ordered and got my drink which wasn’t what I ordered and they were super kind about fixing that. When I got my food I took it to go to eat on the train and my toast was not as I’d ordered. It had cheese on it when I had ordered it stating no feta I have a dairy allergy. She also had repeated no feta back to me. I was disappointed to say the least since I couldn’t eat it and was then on a 2 hour train with no food. As someone with an allergy it’s always something I state clearly that there cannot be cheese.

Lovely cosy caffe, lovely staff.

I would say this is one of the best coffee places in town! Very friendly, excellent food and brilliant coffee made woth a proper machine - dont miss !

Smoked salmon cream bagel is so delicious.

Perfect atmosphere and very kind staff

We stooped for coffee, tea and something sweet to eat. It was the best coffee in Edinburgh! Great service. Highly recommended.

The cutest little coffee, breakfast, lunch spot!!!! Service is amazing and food is so generous.

What a nice surprise to find a small coffee shop that has amazing lunches! It's worth going for their coffee but check out their fruit bowl lunch. Tastes fresh & amazing! The employees are also friendly and helpful. It's tight inside with not many tables but, who knows, you might make a friend.

Yummy food..friendly staff…timely service and was a short walk from our hotel.

The food was fabolous but the service not. You’ve to pay an 8.5% extra for the service and they took more than 40 minutes long to bring 2 toasts. For me inadmissible.

Tasty food, delicious sweets and cakes, friendly and welcoming staff, cute place to be and stay a while. Prices are more than on par for the outstanding quality of the foods offered!

Food top notch. Amazing. Delicious. Staff is very friendly. Quick service. Great vibe. Love it!!

It was my and my family breakfast place for 3 days. Wonderful service, atmosphere and especially wonderful food.

The coffee is balanced, the food is delicious, the service is fast, the coffee is great, the coffee opens the soul, and the prices are good

very friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. the hot chocolate and the ham & cheese croissant was delicious

Coffee was good. Somewhat disappointed by the eggs (quite dry) and that the orange juice wasn’t fresh

Best coffee Best brunch Best granola I’ve ever had so fresh and crispy

This was one of our short-listed breakfast spots to hit during our recent stay in Edinburgh. It was the first one on our list and it ended up being the best breakfast spot across our who 2-week trip. We ended up eating here for all three of our breakfasts in Edinburgh - it was that good! Every iteration of the toast we tried was fantastic. The chai lattes, flat whites, and americanos we got were all delicious too. To top it off, the staff was incredibly friendly and the space was quite cozy. If the weather is kind, sit outside on the street and enjoy a lovely start to your day here!

the berry bowl was absolutely delicious

We had to wait outside for a bit, but then we were able to have breakfast in the shop. The cappuccino was particularly nice and the breakfast was delicious! Great atmosphere :)

Try the Brie & blackberry toast - so delicious! And so sweet people working there - real feel-good-place!

Best coffee / breakfast stop in Edinburgh. Cheese toastie and mocha were the best I have ever had. Lovely staff 🩷

Food amazing and staff really nice. One of my favourite place in Edinburgh

Soooo good. And the service is simply a dream!!!

What a wonderful place to start the day. We enjoyed some coffee and hot chocolate with beautiful latte art to kickstart our senses. The bowls and Scrambled eggs on toast were fantastic and got us ready for a day of exploring. The team was super friendly and gave us a smile for the day 😊

I had a happy meal thanks to great food and very friendly staff.

Nice service. And a really good menu for a healthy breakfast.

Nice service and super delicious food. Sometimes the price/performance isn't right. £4 for extra bacon is a rip off. I get a whole sandwich from another bakery.

Ausgezeichnetes kleines Café. Hier werden die Speisen frisch zubereitet. Sehr freundliches Personal und einen ausgezeichneten Kaffee. Toll

Savoury breakfast With nice portion. Coffee above average and tasty

We came to this place for brunch. It’s easier to get a table if you are looking for a table for 2 or less. We have 3 people so we waited for about 15-20 minutes. The food we ordered are in big portion and very tasty. They also have some interesting toast options that you rarely see in other brunch restaurants!!

Lovely place, lovely staff. Millionaire Shortbread is where it's at!

I've been to all the famous cafes in London, but here's a flat white... Be sure to go

The coffee is beautiful, the place is wonderful, and the staff is very kind and polite. I liked the café and I will visit it again, God willing..

Nice people and nice place Good stuff

everything was amazing but my favorite was cheese toastie tasted like a clean cheat pizza hut and banana nest as well for chai latte/ matcha latte and turmeric latte

The food is delicious and the service is friendly!

Breakfast really made with love we got here at my very first trip to Edinburgh. We came twice. You will love it here.

Very fresh and healthy food. Excellent coffee. Very nice staff. Very clean. Will definitely be back again. Thank you!!

This is a lovely small cafe. The berry bowl is delicious with lots of fresh fruit. I enjoyed the coffee also. The service charge is included for sit in service and the staff deserve it. I enjoyed my breakfast so much that I returned for a second day.

The best place for breakfast in Edinburgh, I always visit whenever I’m in town for work. The staff are wonderful, the food is well presented and delicious. I highly recommend the brie and blackberry toast.

Honestly the service here was amazing! I got my food in less than ten minutes and my coffee in 3?! What is this sorcery for a busy cafe! Great place if you’re a bit crunched for time. The food was also amazing and the coffee perfect. Highly recommend if you want a bread brunch / lunch spot!

Fabulous food and coffee, very friendly and accommodating staff in a really chilled out environment. The food was beautifully presented and what you see is what you got, just delicious! We sampled 5 dishes and all were 10/10! A great find!

I tried tuna and avocado and it was delicious 😋

Das Café lag direkt neben meinem Hotel und ich war während meines Aufenthaltes mehrmals zum Frühstück dort. Die Bedienungen waren sehr nett und ich meist direkt (bzw. einmal mit kurzer Wartezeit) einen Platz bekommen. Das Granola und der Toast mit Rührei und Speck sind sehr zu empfehlen. Tipp: auf jeden Fall auch den Lemon Muffin probieren 😊

Cappuccino looked great but tasted quite bland. The cake was okay, and sweet.

Fantastic coffee! Liked it so much we came back multiple times during our visit to Edinburgh

What a lovely, cozy place! Delicious breakfast, great choice of coffee and toats, the service was super nice and excellent.

The first impression of this place was already very positive. The location is perfect. The atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming, it is decorated with a mix of modern and traditional. The food was absolutely amazing, very filling and aesthetically pleasing! Coffee was delicious. Staff was very friendly and lovely.

Had lunch here and it was very good. Price is reasonable and service was very friendly. I had the poke bowl with an iced matcha and I was very pleased. I also tried the millionaire shortbread which was very good too.

Small oasis of peace in Edinburgh. Unfortunately, we had already gotten breakfast beforehand and were no longer able to try the delicious-sounding breakfast selection. The hot chocolate, matcha latte and raspberry whiskey shortbread were incredibly good though.

Nice Coffee Kind Staff Good environment

Best breakfast and coffee experience I've ever had. Edinburgh never disappoints

Really great place, with delicious food and nice servers. :)

Overpriced and incompetent staff

Scrambled eggs made in the microwave for 7-50 on one single piece of toast is Overpriced my opinion our breakfast came to fifty pounds and we had nothing major. Touristy place with a hefty service charge. Lola’s round the corner much better value. I think the reply is a bit hostile, it definitely didnt say microwave eggs on the menu and i cant see where my review says im surprised by the price but it does say it was overpriced which is my opinion and im entitled to that. It was clearly overpriced for one toast and few eggs with a service charge on top. As stated also in my review I recommend another breakfast restaurant. Your reply seemed a bit hostile and appreciate you replying but if you’re offended by a honest review maybe just not reply. Lesson learnt. Wish you all the best

Awesome avocado toast. Some of the best espresso in Edinburgh.

Berry bowl was the most refreshing meal I’ve had in Scotland! Staff was incredible friendly and made the experience amazing. Thank you so much for the food!

Very nice breakfast restaurant with freshly made delicacies! Great selection of coffees and matcha. Pricey high, but justified! I can recommend without exception.

Always a great experience ... top notch coffees and plenty of drlicious, healthy brunch.

Small shop with a good selection of drinks and dishes. The service was very nice and accommodating. The meals were tasty.

Me and my partner came here around 11.30 on a Tuesday. Greeted immediately when we walked in the door by 2 really friendly ladies. We sat down and at first glance the prices threw us off a bit but we said we would chance it. My partner got the scrambled eggs on toast with extra bacon and I got a cream cheese bagel with smoked salmon and a latte. The coffee was maybe the best I've had in Edinburgh so far, really really good. The bagel was lovely lots of salmon and loaded with cream cheese. My partner enjoyed his order too. Would definitely come back here, the staff and the quality of the food is definitely worth paying a bit extra! Service charge of 8.5% is added which it states on the menu but to be honest we would've left a tip regardless so it didn't bother us! Definitely go here if you like good quality food, fast service and good coffee

Really nice breakfast, one of the best I ever had and servis is really good too. Highly recommend it

Great little Cafe with great food and quick friendly service. If you are staying nearby, like at the Yotel, this is a nice alternative to go to. The atmosphere is good, if a little cramped, and there are signs stating that if it is busy, to not start playing around on your laptop due to the space. Food was a good serving for the price paid but the 8.5% surcharge for sitting in was a bit harsh, though they did warn us about that before we ordered. I know Starbucks does this type of thing, and as we have just gotten back, we were not sure if this is now common practice for cafes in the area. Other than that, food was great, staff were friendly, and service was fast when we visited around 10 in the morning. Will probably go again.

Great coffee and hot chocolate, as well as the cheese toastie! Would definitely come back

Lovely coffee and brunch bar, my group came here for breakfast and it was lovely. Clean and quiet atmosphere with a menu that suited many dietary restrictions (vegan, vegetarian, dairy allergies)

Quality place for a coffee and brunch/breakfast. Very reasonably priced. Does have a service charge but only 8.5%

Good food and tea..nice polite personeel. I was staying to the hotel next door and it was an easy solution for breakfast. A bit overpriced though.

Breakfast in this cozy cafe was delicious! Our drinks were great too! The staff were also all very nice and very hospitable. We can highly recommend this place!

Cozy atmosphere, great to start your day in Edinburgh 🫶🏼

good food and great service. negative points: high prices and not as comfortable

Super delicious😋 I regret not eating here on the first day I came to Edinburgh~

A quant little spot, populated mostly by students (not my vibe, but great for students). The food is pretty good, with dietary options for gluten free and vegan, menu is fun, coffee is nice, and the tuna melt is a hot recommendation from me. Service is super, toilet is clean. Only thing letting it down is that it’s overpriced for what it is.

Perfect ! We have breakfast and the welcome is very pleasant and it’s very good! THANKS !!

Lovely little coffee and food place. Three of us ordered different breakfast each and we enjoyed it all. Coffee was good too, if you want a cup do yourself a favour and come here. I ordered a gingerbread latte and it was so nicely balanced. Not too sweet either, just perfect. Staff was friendly, thank you!

That was our best breakfast in Edinburg! The staff was very lovely and willing to give you a pleasant moment and the coffee was delicious, surely one of the best in town. You need to try the beetroot latte 🤫

A very pleasant several visits to Fortuna Coffee Bar for a quick breakfast/lunch and a coffee. The staff were very friendly and hospitable, smiley and cheerful. The coffee was good, and the food even better. Quite a nice selection of healthy meals like berry bowls, poke bowls, avocado toasts, cheese toasties. Highly recommend visiting this place if you're around.

Great coffee. My dad came along with me, he is a hard-to please-Australian man and he said it was the best coffee he'd had in Edinburgh over 10 days!

Came for breakfast, food and beverages were delicious, lovely atmosphere, very nice employees!

OMG - This breakfast was amazing! Loved it and the staff was amazingly friendly! Thanks for having us with our baby. When I asked for some avocado for the baby, they made it fresh on a little plate for her. Thank you ❤️

Locale molto accogliente e pulito, personale cortese e cordiale, ottimi piatti sia salti che dolci

What a special and cozy place to have your morning coffee in! Delicious food, delicious drinks and the friendliest staff. The avocados tastes so fresh and creamy, the eggs are very creamy and tasty as well. The sourdough bread is absolutely delicious. Vegan milk options are available for every drink. Although the seating area is a bit too small, but thats what makes it feel like home. I highly recommend. 10/10
