Food is good. Enough choice. Coffee is good. Also plenty of choice of sweet pastries.

Good coffee. A cozy place to have breakfast in Edinburgh.

Staying at a hotel down the street, we came here every day for a wonderful breakfast. Highly recommend!

Very nice little coffee with typical dishes. The breakfast and the bakes are recommended.

Stopped in for a quick tasty lunch.

The best iced caramel latte I've ever drink

Nice cafe with a wide choice of sweet and savory breakfasts. Cleanliness and waiting times could be improved, and there is no bathroom in the room. Still good food, and reasonable prices, especially considering the generous portions. I would definitely go back.

Excellent little coffee shop with a proper range of breakfast and bagels with great fillings.

I don’t know how the coffee was because, after I tried it after 5 mins with the lid off, my tongue was so burnt I couldn’t taste much of anything.

Great little spot for a nice breakfast meal, whether eating in or on the go! I tried their Lorne sausage, fired egg, haggis and bacon roll. It was moreish and delicious!! Definitely recommend checking these guys out for sure! Thanks!!

I ordered a Scottish breakfast (holyrood special) and a cup of mocha. I was full after eating half of it. The portion was very generous. I recommend it. The room is a bit stuffy, but the atmosphere is good when eating by the window.

Very small but cozy. Good latte and croissant.

Third morning in a row that we have breakfast in this cosy coffee shop. Food is really good and quantity perfect. People are nice. Music is good. They allow dog. Thank you!

Great food, great staff who are very friendly.

There are many choices The window is very desirable We had an English and American breakfast, both excellent. Very friendly staff Small but very cute shop I recommend

£3 for a single espresso and was asked to not stay more than 15min as I am taking up space from people who come there for lunch as well. The worst thing to have been said anywhere for me hence the review

Such a cozy and nice coffee shop ☕ Plenty of choices for breakfast, the food was tasty and the service impeccable. Also, it has great prices. Totally worth it!

If you are looking for great service, delicious food and a good conversation, welcome to a place that you can recommend to your friends. You can find plenty of Turkish hospitality in this breakfast room.

We had the excelent breakfast during our holiday in Scotland at this place. The owner is very friendly and comunicative and the food is just delicious. Thank you :) I should write that review 2 months ago... So It was so good that I did not forget even after 2 months!! :)

Friendly, quick service and cozy interior. Mediocre food and coffee, huge portions, fine if you prefer quantity over quality.

Fantastic place... we had Breakfast here 4 days out of 6 in Edinburgh... Great Coffee, Great Scottish Full Breakfest.. and all at a very reasonable place.. Highly Recommend

Cozy little shop, great place to have a quick breakfast after hitting Pleasance gym

Very nice place I'm regular I really enjoy food and quality service friendly too

Friendly Coffee with beautiful Lights. Brownies and muffins are so good and not very expensive .

Easily the best cafe in Edinburgh with fantastic service, food, and even better company from the owners. Their house bagel is a must order.

We went for breakfast and we ordered Franch toast and scrambled toast it was testy and the people there were so friendly .. there coffee is so good

it was the first nice coffee I found at last!

This was a great surprise for a big breakfast or brunch. I loved the baked stuffed potato ham, pineapple and cheese. Friends had the full breakfast, we ate in but they were busy with take out as well. Very small for sitting in so you may want to order and take out.

This a nice small place that opens quote early. Just had a simple flat white and they even had skimmed 🥛

Awesome place! Highly recommend! The service was excellent. The food was super good! The cappuccino was on point. The price for the quality of service and food is outstanding.

This cafe was a great find, it was a lovely finish to our overnight in Edinburgh. The breakfast was delicious, friendly staff & fast service.

lovely little café with loads of different options and a very friendly staff

Cozy cafe for a flat white with oat milk

trouvé par hasard, ce tout petit coffee shop est parfait, propriétaire et serveuse sympathique, et surtout un EXCELLENT petit déjeuner. Je recommande le Baggels. Nous y sommes revenus le lendemain, car trop bon.

Spotted the cafe on our way to the castle after parking at the ncp car park and planned a takeaway on return to the car. Glad we dod - the frothiest hot chocolate and the most amazing bakes (we sampled the Belgian chocolate cookie and the chocolate muffin). Delicious!

First breakfast in Edinburgh, which leaves us not only a good flavor but also a warm welcome. We quite enjoy it a lot!!!

Stoped in to get lunch to while on my lunch break. The place is tiny and I mean it; there’s barely space for more than five people. I would have sat in but there was no space so I got me food to go. There were only two guys working and both ignored me for a solid couple of minutes. I Eventually one of the guys came over and took my order by which point there was a queue of people behind me. I got a cheese toastie which was decent enough but a bit expensive for the quality. All the food seemed expensive for what you got. You could honestly make yourself a better sandwich at home for much cheaper. All in all I can’t say I see why this place had such good reviews. I doubt I’ll be back.

A great find close to the Holyrood Palace. We went early on a Sunday to get a table as there are only 2 or 3 total tables plus a small counter. The proprietor was friendly and so capable, serving us wonderful coffees and large tasty breakfasts. Excellent all around!

best coffee in edinburghgun and friendly staff

Have rich choices and fresh ingredients! A good choice for breakfast ：）

Isa is amazing and has perfect food and drinks. Great atmosphere, will be back soon.

Great English breakfast with also vegetarian options to enjoy!

İsa. orda ise türkçe konuşarak helal ve güler yüzlü bir kahvaltı çok güzel olur. Mutlaka ziyaret edin. Lezzet harika. Ortam çok sıcak ve zarif

Fantastic place just off the Royal Mile. Prices very good. Takeaway is available. Small and cosy and worth the visit if you wish to start the day right. Sandwiches and bagels available for lunch. Recommended to other to visit. 10/10

Food was great, good value and staff very welcoming.

Can't just have coffee here without having breakfast. Such a terrible attitude..

A fantastic little place with great coffee, breakfasts and charm. Would recommend visiting here to anyone. Pleasant and charming owner who knows how to make great Latte .. would suggest the Holyrood Special with haggis and black pudding -

Smashing wee spot in a brilliant location! Falafel, hummus roll was delicious. Coffee and Rocky road was amazing. Had a chat with the owner/server who is a really nice and genuine guy. Cute and cozy. Love the big window looking on to the street, the decor and the place is really neat, clean and tidy. Will deffinetley visit again the next time I'm through in Edinburgh from the West of Scotland.

Brilliant. Dropped in for lunch, an interesting menu with lots of veggy options. Great coffee! Recommended as an independent.

Found this little cafe when out on a walk on our 2 night stay in the city. Popped in for brunch. Fab warm, toasted breakfast rolls. Lovely soft scrambled egg, made as requested. Lovely hot tea and coffee. So good we visited the next day and just as good. Loved sitting at window people watching too. Would much prefer to spend money in little independent place than large chain. Definitely recommend. Will visit again

Really nice coffee. Lovely guy serving but priced to match the rest of tourist trap Edinburgh. Great people watching place.

Bacon barm and a coffee, nice little coffee shop. Isa was very welcoming and chatty. Highly recommend!!

We visited for breakfast and both had a roll and a hot drink, think it was about £8 for the 2 of us, it was very nice although I don't think it was cooked fresh, but the rolls werre grilled which was nice. Overall we liked it and would visit again.

Very welcoming and chatty, though small it has a large selection on the menu. Highly recommend!!👌👌

Delightful service and delicious food for a lunch stop. Jacket potato and panini served with a lovely Italian side salad.

The best coffee shop in Edinburgh ;)

Small shop, but excellent choice of tasty snacks all served with a smile. Well worth a visit.

Really nice food with a huge selection. Lovely service. Very sweet looking little cafe - def pop in here!!

Really excellent. Brilliant food, good service and ace cake!

Even though a small cafe, has one of the largest selection of brunch items I’ve ever seen. Very friendly and welcoming, food and smoothies were delicious.

Owner is great, food and ambience is very nice as well.

Popped in for a coffee and a pain au choc.Only a tiny place but we had lovely lattes and warm pastries and the staff were very friendly.They also do a huge menu of breakfast and lunch selections.

It's an brilliant coffee shop, best baked potatoes with coronation chicken and tuna😊 Isa is very warm hearted and has a good taste of music, and ask him to give a wonderful dancing show for you😉

브라우니 최고최고 커피도 최고최고 추운 아침, 학교가는 길에 들림. 비바람에 이리저리 치여서 거지꼴을 하고 들어갔는데 오느라 고생했지 하며 브라우니가 위로해주고 커피가 따뜻하게 몸을 덮어줌.

This is the place I go back to time and again every time I vist the city......a full and varied menu includes the best baked potatoes in Edinburgh. Looking forward to lunch there again soon.

This is the best little coffeeshop in Edinburgh. Excellent breakfasts and outstanding coffee . Very friendly service!

Good cooked breakfast, good fast service, and they even had decaff tea👍

Very nice service and very friendly 👍 good seating food are amazing.

Great location. Brilliant menu. Would thoroughly recommend the food and coffee. Quick and friendly service and very reasonably priced. Will definitely be back.

Very good milkshakes and panini's:)

Good,tasty food prepared on the premises quickly and efficientlly while you wait. Always a warm welcome in this cafe where I go for lunch every time I visit Edinburgh.

This is a great place to go if your passing by, I dont drink coffee but he makes some good hot and filled rolls.

Great cosy coffee shop right at the city center. Great coffee and very friendly staff. They also offer a very delicious soup.

Cheese and ham panini really good, as was the smoothie, just the right amount for breakfast lunch or brunch. Friendly and efficient staff. Small but cozy shop.

Food is delicious, staff is friendly and prices are honest! Central location, within 10 minutes you reach the parliament, the castle or the museum!

We had here very good breakfast on our holiday in Scotland. The owner is very friendly and comunicative and the food is just delicious. Thanks you :) I should write that review 2 months ago... So It was so good that I did not forget even after 2 months!! :)

This is our second visit and we were not disappointed. The food is excellent, bacon, Brie & cranberry panini served with a lovely fresh salad. Ham & cheese croissant with salad. Highly recommend this wee coffee shop. All Covid precautions taken.

Visité a mediados de septiembre para desayunar, inicialmente solo quería un café, ya que acababa de llegar después de un largo viaje en automóvil. Los caballeros que trabajaban por la mañana eran realmente agradables, y la comida se veía excelente, así que también desayunamos. La comida y el servicio fueron excelentes en esta cafetería trabajadora, tanto que regresamos a la mañana siguiente antes de partir, ¡y la comida y el servicio fueron tan buenos! Recomendaría.

Amazing little cafe with great food and coffee and a friendly owner. We went 4 times in the 2 days that we were in Edinburgh!

Si te gustan los tradicionales tatties al horno escoceses, este es definitivamente el mejor lugar para probarlos. ¡Uno de los mejores que he probado! Probé el pollo de coronación con un poco de ensalada y estaba absolutamente delicioso, no importa que el precio me sorprendió gratamente. Además, la porción era bastante grande, apenas pude terminarla, ¡pero tenía que hacerlo estaba tan delicioso!Definitivamente regresaré y probaré la especia mexicana.

Excellent Bagel breakfast beautifully served. Nice atmosphere.

Nice little cafe. Popped in for a coffee and I definitely enjoyed it. The service was nice and quick , staff very friendly and reasonable prices. Great place to go for breakfast, coffee or tea . Obviously recommendable.

Amazing. Visited this place twice in 24 hours in Edinburgh. Coffee is delicious. Food was amazing. We are still unsure how he made it, as his kitchen is tiny. But I would highly recommend this place for food and coffee 👌🏻

Hay algunos lugares donde los trabajadores crearon un ambiente realmente agradable, así que este es uno de ellos. Esta encantadora cafetería está dirigida por un chico encantador que cocina todo con un gusto personal y se cuida incluso al doblar la servilleta para llevar. Comida sana y buenas sopas. Gran valor para el centro de la ciudad. Muchas gracias, definitivamente volveré!

Excellent bagel and hot roll, a bargain. The menu is full of choice and the cafe is spotlessly clean

Sit in or takeaway. Had lovely cappuccino and tray bake. Nice staff and reasonable prices. Worth dropping in if your looking for a good hot drink.

Lovely, characterful little cafe, we were staying at the nearby Travel lodge and didn't fancy thier plastic breakfast so went here, good choice!! Lovely fresh food and quality coffee. Just note - cash only. Great start to the day!

This was a nice surprise Christmas present. And very enjoyable one. I am gluten @ dairy intolerant so never sure about what I will get to eat. But I was very happy with Holyrood cafe,lots of nice things to eat great tea and very nice staff.

Had breakfast here on our first morning, had a lovely hot chocolate and a bacon sandwich. Great food for a great price and there are stools along the window if you like people watching.

When you only have soup and jacket potatoes, they should at least try to make the potatoes hot.

Amazing quality and friendly environment with great prices! The man who operates the coffeehouse is so kind and pleasant. Definitely coming back soon!

Enjoyed a nice hot chocolate here and got ourself some free shortbread by being part of the tour bus! Lovely little place and the staff were very friendly!

We visited a couple of times for breakfast and were pleasantly suprised by the food and value for money.

Bit pricey for the careful jocks

Brilliant, we ordered up breakfast at half four on a Friday afternoon. An unusual treat for me was that he had fennel teas (and camomile, redbush, green, fruity nonsense and Earl Grey) as well as the standard 'builder's cuppa'.Clean, fresh establisment. Non-stained cutlery. Large mugs for tea and coffee.This cafe is right on a set of traffic lights. We visited on a very sunny day in September so there was a lot of human traffic passing the windows, and some people sat outside the Sally Army hostel opposite as part of the view. There are x3 tables comfortably seating two inside the shop.The guy calls your order when the food is cooked so you fetch it yourself.There's no toilet, and a step-up from street level. The shape of the premises is triangular so I don't consider this wheelchair accessible.
