Mimi's Bakehouse in Edinburgh, City of

Tuvimos un buen paseo desde Edimburgo, a través de Dean Village, así que estábamos listos para una taza y algo de comer. Tomamos té, café, un bollo de pudín negro y un bollo marrón hachís, los marrones hachís eran bastante insípidos, sin embargo, el bollo / chiabatta era delicioso. El personal era agradable y la decoración estaba bien.

He reservado un té de la tarde como un placer para mi hija (que tiene autismo) mientras visita Edimburgo. La camarera no tuvo tiempo hasta que mi hija tomó una decisión sobre su pedido de bebidas. Afirmó que volveré por su pedido, a pesar de que el servicio era lento y no estaban ocupados. Los sabrosos eran 3 sándwiches suaves de dedos, 2 rollos de salchichas muy pequeños. 2 bollos pequeños cada uno y 4 bandejas de tamaño de bocado. Tuvimos que pedir una segunda bebida caliente. Pagamos £ 75 (25 libras cada uno por 3 sándwiches delgados de dedos y unas galletas de tamaño bocado), mal servicio y comida mediocre. Sin ambiente, sin interacción con el personal y sin relación calidad-precio. No es la mejor experiencia y no volvería

Cozy afternoon tea with good small accessories that really satiated. Nice staff. A bit rickety venue, but otherwise a very good experience.

We recently ordered a wedding cake for 50 people and it was delicious. We got victoria sponge and red velvet with a buttercream icing. They delivered the cake to our venue and decorated it with a lovely stand and some flowers provided by our florist. Great service and would highly recommend.

I had a snack and breakfast the next day a scone with a house latte/tea, I just have to say that it is the best scone I have tried so far, I recommend it 100%, both the atmosphere and the service make you feel welcome and enjoy of your breakfast

A pleasure to enjoy teatime in Edinburgh, in a rococo setting and with very English homemade cakes.

This was my 5th afternoon tea at Mimis. This time I opted for the Halloween tea and it was dissapointing I'm sorry to say for £60, usually the quality is very high this just wasn't the standard I'm used to and I don't think I'll return. The sweet treats plate were just okay and the savoury plate was yummy. The plate of pumpkin scones were so soo dry they were hard to swallow even though we slathered it in cream and jam. We tried to get the attention of a waitress as we needed water but couldn't so after we finished we paid the bill at the till and left. Must advise the polite staff to check in on customers. Been a customer for years had breakfast many times and ordered cakes.

I entered the restaurant, full of hope to start my journey with a nice breakfast from this place. Unfortunately, it was the worst service I’ve received in years... extremely poor treatment and an experience I hope neither I nor my followers have to go through again. Despite the availability of tables in the restaurant, the waitress insisted that we sit next to the restroom. When we requested to change the location, she replied, "This is what’s available." We sat down, and within three minutes, two people arrived and the same waitress immediately changed their place when they requested. It took 35 minutes just to bring us tea and coffee, when we asked they said they forgot to place the order. when it came were rudely placed on the table, causing some coffee to spill, as shown in the picture. of course she did not even feel to apologize. Just walked away. As for breakfast, it wasn’t served as we requested. My wife had asked for the cream and sugar to be on the side, yet it wasn’t done, and we left before she could finish her meal. The situation only improved when the waitress named (Arien) was replaced by another, who treated us better and, acknowledging the mistake, removed the cost of the tea and coffee from the bill. A very disappointing experience, and I regret giving this restaurant the attention of having my first breakfast there.

We had the signature cream and jam scone, they were out of plain so we ordered pumpkin - delicious! Fairly priced tea and coffee. Staff lovely. 5 stars!

Visité un domingo con mi novio recientemente y estaba decepcionado tanto con el lento servicio (a pesar de estar bien equipado) y la mala calidad de los dulces que se ofrecen. Elegimos 2 deliciosos horneados de bandeja para compartir con una tetera. Cuando finalmente los recibimos nos quedamos muy decepcionados con el sabor de ellos. Sentí que se producía en masa de alguna manera. Qué vergüenza que se vieran tan atractivos.

It was a fine high tea for the relatively lower price compared with other high teas in town. For tourists, it gives you the general picture of what a high tea is, but definitely not the full experience. Servers didnt talk much - just to ask you what kind of tea you want and then to drop off your food. No one checked in with us and 1 hour and 15 minutes later, we ultimately waved someone down for our check. The food was not great, and the tea was made from tea bags instead of loose leaf tea. I will place has a cute vibe, and again, for the price, it gets the job done.

Service was painful slow despite having about 5 members of staff on a quiet sunday. Our servers were nice though. Took 30 mins to get 2 coffees and then another 15 mins for our food. when the food arrived it was cold. The toast was just bread and the poached eggs were like rubber balls. bacon had to have the fat removed off. cakes were nice and the coffee was decent but the food was not up to scratch.

I like mimi's, their cakes are amazing, so was disappointed when we headed for brunch. I had the mini scottish breakfast, it was very dry I was expecting toast but had cold bread, the beans and sausage were bland and the egg was overcooked to the point the yolk was chalky. Just an unpleasant experience. My partner had shakshuka it was also bland and watery, it was hard to tell the difference between egg whites and the feta. The chorizo that was added to the shakshuka was nice. I'll be returning for cakes but not for brunch.

Great food and service, lovely place

Absolutely amazing, we were here celebrating our 25th silver wedding anniversary, we got a lovely free red velvet cupcake. The afternoon tea was so nice with free beverage top ups. The cakes were amazing but far too much to eat so we took a box home for the kids.

Delicious ultimate Benedict! Very generous portions too

Dined here for lunch in Leith. Wasn’t super busy but the service was incredibly slow. Took over 45 minutes for our order to arrive ( soup of the day and bacon egg and chips). The soup was so so hot and bland I hardly touched it. Food was okay but nothing special for the price and wait time. The restaurant itself it’s rather dark and cold and the decor is a little outdated. I noticed other customers who had ordered afternoon tea and the portions looked very small for the price of £25 per head. The staff were all very friendly to us and happy to get us what we needed. Overall rather disappointing and overpriced. Reading the reviews similar points are highlighted. The place has potential but needs to take on the feedback.

Thought it would be nice next to the canal. But rather bland exterior and interior and the canal itself is quite 'dirty'. Nothing that the café has anything to do with, but it played a role for me in the overall experience when you think of going to a café by the water. The food was good but rather bland in taste. Nice that it was proper bread anyway. A "proper" cafe if you have to describe it in Swedish. Maybe my own state of mind affected my visit (hungry+grumpy+tired). So the food is good. But...

A great restaurant with a nice atmosphere. We were there for breakfast. Typical Scottish breakfast with beans, bacon, etc. Lots and very tasty. The French toast was also great. Highly recommended.

Come hungry! Delicious food and big portions. Recommend the Scottish breakfast and ultimate eggs benedict.

Lovely venue. Staff are attentive and friendly. Great selection of hot drinks and cakes.

Nice brunch restaurant with a nice location, good service and a great selection of (hot) drinks and dishes for brunch! 😊

We went for brunch and the food was very good so it was a shame the service was appalling. Food took 40 minutes to arrive and it quiet, very hard to get attention of staff even to pay. I wanted to get a cake but again there were no staff and then I noticed two flies in the cabinet so decided not to. I would like to try another one instead of Leith.

Friendly staff and decent portions - delayed service was compensated for

Very welcoming place, after the walk along the Leith

Nos topamos con Mimi's hace varios años durante nuestra última visita a Edimburgo y lo disfrutamos tanto que hicimos la caminata de (casi) 2 millas desde Stockbridge para tener el brunch allí de nuevo (sin presión, Mimi's!). No decepcionaron. Un gran desayuno escocés y wee Scottish estaban a la orden del día y ambos dieron en el punto. Una gran fiesta que llegó justo antes que nosotros significó un poco de retraso en obtener nuestra comida. Esto se disculpó en más de una ocasión y (al darse cuenta de que también era nuestro aniversario) se ofreció prosecco a modo de "compensación". Para mi disgusto, mi esposa rechazó esta oferta en favor de bollos y al salir nos presentaron una selección en caja. Fueron encantadores, por cierto, al igual que el mensaje de felicitación escrito dentro de la propia caja. Qué sorpresa tan encantadora. No es que estemos en Edimburgo tanto como nos gustaría pero que Mimi lo haga bien en dos ocasiones con años de diferencia significa que tienen suerte o son buenos en lo que hacen. Mi dinero está en esto último. Tenga la seguridad de que volveremos en el próximo viaje a Edimburgo.

Food was ok, nothing special, service was poor. Lady that served us knocked one of the poached eggs off the plate on the table and her resolve was to bring napkins. Didn’t offer to replace it. I’ve never been to a place where i was asked to scoop the food off my table and place it on my plate. Surely a poached egg is not that expensive.

The BEST hash-browns hands down! The Monte Cristo was amazing as well. Lovely staff and good service.

Todos los lugareños con los que trabajé hace años promocionaron este lugar como EL lugar de brunch y panadería, y he estado deseando tener la oportunidad de probarlo. Después de irme por fin, tengo que decir honestamente que no volveremos a almorzar. ¿Es malo o no comestible? No. ¿El personal es amable? -Sí. Sin embargo, no revisan las mesas muy a menudo. Terminamos esperando 40 minutos en medio - restaurante completo para la comida, y había algunas partes del plato que parecían preparados por delante (es decir, tocino frío). En resumen: excelente ubicación, buen personal, no es la mejor comida. Pero no probamos los pasteles. Disculpas al personal por decir que la comida era genial - no había nada importante que se podía hacer y nada era lo suficientemente terrible para enviar de vuelta. Simplemente no lo suficiente para que queramos volver a comer.

Poorly breakfast. Me and my family went to mimis bakery for breakfast first of all, I had ordered the mimis breakfast it came out cold i cut into it and the middle was frozen we sent it back and also the egg was a weird texture almost as if it hadn’t been cooked at the top the sausages were not nice also. Overall the breakfast was very poor. One of my family members ordered a ham and cheese croissant and she had asked if it was toasted the staff said yes but it in fact was not the croissant was not bad but would rather it toasted. Another one of my family members ordered the brioche muffin it was meant to come with bacon but they had none and she opted for smoked salmon . The brioche was not even toasted and tasted horrible. However after we got these we ordered some of the tray bakes and they were quite nice. Overall we were disappointed as to the food as the cafe looked lovely.

Very awesome lovely staff members excellent would highly recommend

I was very excited about my first visit to Mimi’s as I’ve followed them on instagram for a long time, and heard many good reviews from friends who have been or bought occasion cakes. I had booked today for afternoon tea for my daughter and I. My overall experience was very mixed! Positives All cakes/scones were delicious We were able to switch out one savoury item we didn’t like (salmon) and were given extra sausage rolls Nice table by the window Lovely traybake I took away for my husband Negatives Server did not check back after food was delivered to table so had to go up to counter to get water and order an additional coffee Extra coffee didn’t appear so had to be chased up. When it did arrive no spoon or milk Slow service in general and not enthusiastic or friendly. ***** The service wasn’t what I would expect from such a well established, popular business. I’m not sure if we just went on an ‘off’ day but there were 4 or 5 staff working and it was not busy so I feel the service should have, and could have, been much better. I feel it’s a real shame as the food was great and the other meals I could see being brought out also looked delicious.

Wirklich sehr köstliche Leckereien. Die Scones sind mittags immer ausverkauft,daher muss man schnell sein. Es gibt einen kleineren Laden mit ein paar Tischen in Edinburgh und einen größeren Laden in Leith.

First thing you notice when you go in is just how lively the people and staff are. Comfortable interiors with homey decorations. The staff were incredibly friendly and weren’t overbearing in any way. The scones were dreamy. 100% will visit when I come back to Edinburgh.

Excellent food💫,warm service definitely worth coming back ❣️

We had a great time at Mimi's, the food was of excellent quality with good portion sizes and the cakes were delicious, highly recommend the jammy slice. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Much easier to visit from Edinburgh City centre just a short walk from the tram so highly recommend visiting, book a table in advance.

Nice spacious cafe/restaurant/coffee house. Great looking cakes. Only one of us had a cake, and he really enjoyed it. The coffee's were lovely. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The food I saw being served looked amazing.

Had a great time here for afternoon tea! Although I don’t think i’m much of a tea person so I didn’t love the tea itself, the experience was great for the price and it came with a heaping amount of food! The waitresses are all so friendly and accommodating of any dietary restrictions, and made the experience that much better. Would definitely give it a try for a nice afternoon brunch.

Came to Mimi's Bakehouse in Leith for the first time for my sister in law's baby shower. The staff couldn't have been kinder, more attentive or helpful both when I was planning the baby shower and during the baby shower itself. We had afternoon tea for 9 people which was delicious and Mimi's were able to accommodate gluten-free and lactose free. Couldn't recommend more, thanks again to all the staff that made it such a lovely afternoon.

As perfect as all the other Mimi's Bakehouses' are! Friendly service, absolutely delicious food. I am Biscoff obsessed and their Banana Biscoff French Toast is a Biscoff lovers dream! Stuffed with gooey melted biscoff, and the French toast itself is as light as a feather. Got a (rather large, which I'm happy about) slice of rainbow birthday cake to take away. All their cakes are seriously yummy - light and full of flavours. Can't wait to come back to this store for the French toast again!

Wonderful treat for our wedding anniversary with an afternnon tea. Fantastic service as always.

Mimi’s in Leith went above and beyond for us. The service was incredible and the food was scrumptious. Everyone needs to try their afternoon tea! Wow.

Staff were abrupt and not very friendly which left a bitter taste as soon as we entered. We arrived slightly early and were told we were early and that the table was not ready and were not given any option to sit down anywhere until the table was cleaned. No apology or anything. We went outside and came back in and they asked for the details and brought up the wrong booking as they didn’t bother to check the surname. It was also my friend’s birthday which was mentioned in the booking comments and they did not bring a special birthday muffin for her like they did for another customer…which was both embarrassing for us and appalling that the booking was not checked properly. To add the cherry to the cake (pun intended) they did not provide the full selection of sandwiches in the afternoon tea (however we explained and they brought out another three with an apology, 15 minutes later). We waited a good 20-30 minutes before being asked what drinks we would like with our afternoon tea. The place was not even busy at this point so it was just embarrassing. The staff did not say “thank you for coming” upon leaving and did not ask how everything was at the end. The vibe was way off. I have been in 2017 and it was amazing but this time it was a huge let down. £25 per head for what you get is not worth it and definitely disproportionate between the number of sandwich slices and cake to the point we all felt sick by the third cake. They were nice but in its entireity, definitely not worth the money. I will not be coming back to this one in Leith due to the service and atmosphere. I notice by the responses there is some personal offence taken by some negative comments and excuses made rather than take the comments as constructive criticism to improve the services.

Not been for a while - was very disappointed today. The coffee was good as usual, it the food that disappointed. I had a bacon roll with brown sauce. It was ok - the bacon was a bit overdone. The brown sauce bottle didn’t have a date on it. The bacon roll cost £6.50 - it wasn’t very big. The biggest disappointment was my daughter’s ‘sandwich’. It was advertised as coming with salad and crisps. Well - it wasn’t a sandwich/ it was a roll - a small one, no salad and a few broken crisps. Now I know it’s Easter Sunday, but with a supermarket (open) just 100 meters away there is no excuse that they’d run out of salad. No adjustment was made to the price - £12. I’ve not been here for a while - I shan’t bother again- there are plenty of other coffee shops to choose from. I feel that the place has gone downhill….no interaction with any of the staff - the plates were whisked away without a word.

The drinks were great, the food was not so much. We had to wait a while on the food and some got served at different times which meant one half was almost finished when the other half got theirs. The soup was cold and the roll was not very fresh. The lovely staff sorted it out though. Feel it is slightly overpriced for what you get!

Visited on a Sunday, not overly busy and plenty of staff. Took us 15 minutes until our order got taken, then waited 25 mins for 1 portion of French toast and 1 bacon roll. The French toast was grand but the bacon roll had 1 rasher of bacon on one side of the ciabatta and then the off cuts of fat from another bit bacon on the other side, for £6.50?!!! Because you can see through into the kitchen I seen out dishes sitting there waiting to be taken for up to 10 minutes whilst they sat under the hot plate. I sent it back right away and they kept it on the bill, and gave me £1 off, so i then had to ask can you please take that off since I didn’t eat it. Always heard good things but would not recommend this place at all, go to cafe Truvo next door instead, cheaper and much better quality and the staff actively work.

Mimis is a lovely bakery! If you are popping in to any of their restaurants dotted through out the city or ordering a cake or high tea at home you will not be disappointed. I have ordered many birthday cakes over the years and sampled many tray bakes and breakfasts. The cakes are decadent, fluffy and a little peace of happiness. Mmm 😋 Staff are fantastic and go above and beyond. Kirsty, Sarah and the whole team have helped create fantastic family memories. Well worth a visit, you will not be disappointed.

Awful communication I asked at the door if I could just order a takeaway coffe so I stood in line for about 15minutes before then being told that no they weren't doing that. There was no apology for the cross wires between staff and just generally not a very nice attitude from the server

Good food (vegan breakfast very generous with the avocado), friendly staff, and very accommodating of those with babies.

A lovely valentines 💝 afternoon, lovely staff ,sooooo good . Thank you 😊

Have a LOVELY afternoon tea, friendly service and tasty food, great experience for my wife's birthday, will be back!

Ordered few cakes. Server was struggling ( her hands were shaking) to cut the skinniest slice of cake ever, shameless and embarrassing. nearly 6.00 for a cake. Trying to save money by robbing customers

Delicious food, as always! Didn't like those little tables close to the kitchen, felt a bit uncomfortable/wobby

We arrived in the afternoon, but unfortunately hadn't booked the afternoon tea in advance... we ordered from the menu instead, banana bread, muffins, scones, mac & cheese etc. Everything tasted delicious. And we even got a student discount. We would always come back

Mimi’s is always worth a visit for good quality coffee and scones in this stormy weather.

Food was okay. it was so basic for the price, and service was very slow, coffee came after the food

This is our go to cafe for a treat! As a family and individually we go to the Comely bank and Leith Mimis often. Staff are always very friendly, helpful, and tolerant of toddler's whims. Cakes and traybake (we have sampled many) are reliably amazing and the meals are great - portion sizes are very generous. I would definitely recommend!

I would highly recommend Mimi’s and in particular their Before Noon Tea is just the best concept and the most delicious brunch treat! I have been several times and already booked to go again in a few weeks.

Sought this location out after my visit to the one by Waverley station. I had brunch here and the shakshuka was delicious! I don’t see it that often on menus so had to go for it. Too full for a baked treat but I’ll be back and I want to try the French Toast. Staff was fantastic!

Lovely place, the waitresses were very friendly and the food was delicious !

Delicious brunch and charming staff. I really enjoyed the avocado toast which had a generous topping of avocado & pea shoots. My husband had homemade crumpets topped with poached eggs and bacon. All perfectly cooked, every bite was delicious- thank you

Booked afternoon tea for myself and my son. Food and cakes were amazing. Was disappointed to be charged for 2 coke zeros when we didn’t have any other drinks as part of the afternoon tea as my son doesn’t like lemonade and I don’t like tea/coffee and at £3.50 a bottle, it was quite pricey. My son was also told he could have had anything else but we were still charged.

We found the whole experience fantastic, it was a lovely lunchtime treat on a visit to Edinburgh.

Mimi's is definitely one of my favourites and I have supported them since they opened their first place here in Leith, 13 years ago. I can never see past the French Toast with bacon and maple syrup and of course a wee cupcake or 3! A great spot for catching up with friends, treats for mum or a solo cuppa coffee and a cake.

I truly cannot understand the reasonably high ratings given by others. I found the surroundings pretty grim and the food mediocre, from s pretty limited menu. The filled half roll I had with my half roll/soup combo was stale and sparsly filled The soup was ok but nothing special. It is very overrated in my view. I won't be back.

On arrival we waited to be seated for about 15 mins. We weren’t acknowledged once but were seen by staff. We were then told after waiting for so long that they were no longer taking walk-ins. Not taking walk-ins is fine. However, don’t have folk waiting to even be acknowledged for 15 mins to just turn them away. Really poor customer service.

Breakfast for four adults and 4 children. Early 9.00 on the Saturday before Christmas. Normally really enjoy this treat, but today it seemed very flat. Almost empty and cold. I had the Eggs Benedict with bacon. It came lukewarm. The bacon looked as though it had been cooked for some while and heated up. Service was good as it wasn’t busy Quite disappointing really as it’s always been so good.

Ah, Mimi's bakehouse in Leith, where the chai latte tasted like it took a detour through a flavorless desert before reaching my cup. It left my taste buds so confused; they started questioning their life choices. The birthday cake slice, on the other hand, must have been baked with sugar from Willy Wonka's factory – I could practically feel my teeth wincing with each bite. But fear not, dear pastry pilgrim, for even in the land of taste bud misadventures, Mimi's had its redeeming qualities. The scenic location next to the river was like a visual dessert for my eyes, providing a picturesque distraction from the sugary onslaught happening inside my mouth. It's as if the bakery whispered, "Fear not, adventurer, we may not have conquered the art of balance in flavors, but feast your eyes upon this river view, and all shall be forgiven."

I spent a lot of time trying to find someone who could make a custom cake at a reasonable price. Mimi's were excellent throughout the process - the team were meticulous in taking down my design details and customising the cake for me. My favourite animals are otters and I was so pleased that they were able to do the fondant design for me with the sea and coral detail. The flavour was their delicious red velvet and the cake was delivered perfectly intact to my designated venue. The only complaint is they could have let me know once the cake was completed and delivered as I had asked for in my initial order but as it was a Saturday I imagine it might have been overlooked. All in all a fanastic service, I will definitely be back to use them again! Thank you so much for making my birthday so special <3

Nice hot chocolate and delicious scones.

Mimi's has a big reputation for its afternoon tea and it's Christmas offering didn't disappoint! A varied selection of sweet and savoury treats with the scones and pies in particular absolutely delicious. Unrushed relaxed atmosphere added to the overall experience.

Mimi’s Christmas Afternoon Tea was such a beautiful and delicious part of our celebrations and get together. The tea service (and the savouries and pot pie especially!) were truly delightful, the service was helpful, and the ambience just perfect. The savouries are really the best I have had in an afternoon tea set anywhere and the touch of crackers placed for us at the table was just so thoughtful. Highly recommend it

We stumbled into this establishment randomly while going for a walk, and we absolutely loved it! My husband enjoyed their avocado toast, I had the Nutella French toast (it was divine), and my daughter had their Mac and cheese. We were all happy with our choices and decided to go again while in Edinburgh.

Great cake variety and solid brunch options! Very friendly staff and service. On the downside the interior seems a bit dated thus four stars...

Came here for the first time for brunch - have always heard great things about Mimi’s, and enjoyed their cakes in the past. Nice cafe space inside, and feels like a “proper” cafe. Service was fine, but fairly slow considering it was less than 50% full - took about 15-20 minutes for drinks to come. The staff were primarily quite young, and service was lacking a more personal touch - one girl was wearing a very dirty hoodie and trousers which is rather unprofessional. Food was pretty good - nicely presented and hot. I had the brioche bun stack which was nice but a little underwhelming - had one small hash brown (which looked like it was probably from a bulk freezer pack), bulk bought black pudding, with chilli “jam” on the side (which looked and tasted like generic sweet chilli sauce). The French toast and full breakfast were really tasty and generous portion sizes. Would probably come back, but certainly other places in the area I’d go back to sooner.

Ein nettes Cafe mit Blick aufs Wasser. Wir wollten eine Afternoon-Tea Experience machen und waren begeistert von den Köstlichkeiten, die uns serviert wurden (wenn man das möchte, muss man zuvor reservieren).

Went for Halloween tea! Savory treats were amazing!

Stylishes Café direkt in Wassernähe, schneller Service, leckere Scones mit Clotted Cream und der Pumpkin Spice Latte war sehr üppig.

We popped into Mimi's for breakfast and cannot fault anything!! I was seduced by the brioche stack ( black pudding, bacon, avocado, hash brown and sweet chilli jam.... This sounds a bit weird, but it works really well), my wife had a bacon roll which was a hearty size breakfast!! Which also tasted lovely. We then popped in a couple of days later for lunch (we rarely revisit places when we're away, but we made an exception for Mimi's). The 2nd visit didn't disappoint. We had a sausage roll and the ham, cheese and pesto sandwich with a bowl of soup. Edinburgh is a beautiful city that we will revisit...... We'll return to Mimi's too. Almost forgot.... They do tasty cakes as well.

L'établissement est situé au bord de l'eau. La décoration de la salle en fait un lieu charmant. Les serveuses sont agréables. Nous y sommes allées vers 16h et avons commandé deux chocolats chauds, deux scones et une part de gâteau. Le chocolat chaud est bon, les scones également. La petite confiture faite maison qui accompagne le plat est bonne. La gâteau à la confiture de fruits rouge en revanche est beaucoup plus sucré, nous avons bien moins apprécié. Les toilettes étaient propres. Globalement nous avons passé un très bon moment entre amies là bas.

A great find in Leith, great atmosphere, fab staff and food fantastic. First time having a pumpkin spiced scone, delicious. Many awards won for cakes etc. A must if in the area.

The staff was more interested in chatting than serving it's clients. 4 people behind the counter could not manage to cut and serve a slice of cake under 20 minutes ( it was not busy)... not returning.

Fantastic afternoon tea at home again. Lovely sandwiches, scones and cakes. Recommend this product and service highly.

I have visited Mimis several times across Edinburgh and the food is without doubt always lovely. However unless you are 1 person, it seems you must absolutely make a booking! When we've gone without and politely asked if there's space for 2+ we are have been met with immediate NOs alongside very dismissive attitudes which could easily be replaced with a friendly, "really sorry but we are full at the moment, but perhaps if you could come back at [whatever time] or would like to take some coffee / cakes away" or even suggest we book on the website in future, I dont know whatever just something that doesn't make me think never to try again! Which to be honest is how I now feel about this particular branch, much rather go to the Turkish place couple doors along who always try their best efforts to arrange a table even for bigger groups and super friendly about it. Maybe something worth mentioning to the waiting staff 🤷‍♀️

طلبنا ثلاث انواع فطور ( بيندكت وتوست بالبيض والافوكادو وجبنة الفيتا والطبق الثالث توست بالحمص)الاطباق كانت مشبعه

Such a lovely place to have a break from everything. We just have a flat white, cappuccino and scottish Rocky Road, but the feeling of this place is superb. Lovely service, variety of items to choose from and the location. Keep it up. Great place, check yourself.

Booked an Afternoon Tea today with a few exceptions, no salmon and no currant scone. The lovely girl that brought it over swiftly removed it and rectified the options. Also offered us a free cake, (which we decined as had enough but lovely gesture) as they got the order wrong. Can honestly say, it was fantastic. Will definitely come back when next here, Great service, excellent staff... scones and homemade jam...amazing!

Fantastic place, and if you have a kid I’d recommend it. Really accommodating, and plenty of room for both prams and high chairs.

First class food and service, not surprised they have won so many awards. We visited on a Friday lunchtime, looked like a mother and toddler group had turned out so it a bit loud!! Highly recommended. Visited a couple of times since, still good. Table booking via website recommended at busy times, weekends etc.. No designated parking.

Excellent location near the Shore. Easy access by bus, 16/35 stops right in front. Breakfast chips are amazing. The breakfast sandwich had a copious amount of ooey gooey cheese. Scones are the size of my hand with smooth cream.

So many wonderful things to eat here. Breakfast chips--who knew I needed those in my life! Scones are huge with a delicious cream and jam. Excellent place to meet up with friends and enjoy great food by the Shore.

Visited Mimis in Stockbridge. Staff lacked interest and overpriced sandwiches were awful. Had Coronation Chicken sandwich which cost £11. The roll was stale and the chicken tasteless. Asked for no rocket on the side but was given it. Plenty of other quality coffee houses in Stockbridge which offer better quality and service. Won't be back.

Tried to have two lattes for takeaway, it was the only takeaway order at the time, and it took over 15 min to be ready. I had to leave without my order because I was about to miss the bus. Might be a good place for food, but definitely don’t go there for takeaway orders unless you have plenty of time.

The service war really poor. The staff did not care a lot about the customers and was neither efficient nor friendly. The food was ok, but 25pounds (per person!) for the afternoon tea was way too much for what we got!

Looks like my review goes against the majority of reviews but today was an absolute shocker. Foodwise I opted for the full traditiobal breakfast at £14, what was delivered to my table was the majority of food being luke warm and overcooked. Staff wise a bit disappointed that they all looked miserable. Only positive was a 10% discount when they were informed of my disappointment. Next time will visit the Clock on the Shore who appear to do a far superior and less expensive breakfast.

We had the afternoon tea at Mimi's bakehouse. The sweets and sandwiches were delicious. The only downside here is the interior, of cause it depends on personal taste as well, but we had the impression that it is not really taken care of. There are spots on the chairs and sofas and our table was a bit damaged. Maybe we are a bit picky but unfortunatley it was on of the first things we saw. But due to the good reputations we wanted to give it a try...

Have been a few times and sometimes it is wonderful and sometimes service is a little slow. It was quite difficult to hear the waiting staff where we were sat and as a result they got some of our order incorrect. Overall though it is a lovely place for a catch up and reasonably accessible for those with disabilities

Yep, satisfying that sweet tooth once again! This time at Mimi's Bakehouse in Leith. Lovely little cafe, with a braw wee outlook. Staff were really friendly and helpful, especially as we asked about pretty much every cake in the display! 😆 After much deliberation we finally decided on the Chocolate Brownie, a Chocolate & Raspberry Tray Bake and the Red Velvet Stuffed Cookie. All very tasty, with different textures. You could tell they were nice and fresh and hadn't been sitting out for days on end. The clear winner, though, was the Stuffed Cookie! That filling was really moreish! Lots of hot and cold food on the menu worth checking out, and have a look at their specials board, too, for some fresh and fruity soft drinks! 😋

Les pâtisseries étaient délicieuses, le service très bien et un bel endroit!

Great place to eat and buy first class cakes.
