Mugs Cafe in Edinburgh, City of

Amazing place to eat and The Service Is SO GOOD All very kind but sadly there are not too many seats but the smoothies and milk shakes are the best

Nice sandwich place at a good price. Soup was delicious. The toasties were tasty. Good overall meal.

We happened upon this place when walking up Morningside Road to meet my son. It's cute inside and was obviously well-patronised by locals, as well as visitors which is always a good recommendation. Staff were friendly and attentive and service was prompt. Along with a selection of teas, coffees, smoothies and cold drinks, there is an array of cakes and traybakes on offer (not sure if they are made in-house) along with sandwiches, paninis, toasties, wraps and homemade soup. We each had a bowl of tasty tomato and basil soup accompanied by a satisfying toastie and we were both very happy with our chance lunch experience at Mugs. We'd happily recommend!

Lovely wee find, with friendly and welcoming owners and a great selection of cakes! Americano coffee was good too.

Called in for lunch. The cafe had a great range of toasties, wraps and paninis, served with lovely side salads. The staff were friendly and the food was delicious. There was also a great range of cakes.

Our favourite tea & cake stop in Edinburgh! Great food, great service, great staff. Totally relaxing. Give it a try—you won’t be disappointed!

I have visited Mugs several times now and need to let people know what a lovely cafe this is. The quality of the food, the friendly and good service, the cleanliness - all are superb. An absolute gem of a cafe just beside the Post Office and opposite the Churchill Theatre.

Such a lovely, relaxing environment. Selection of cakes is wonderful and the waffles are out of this world! Great undiscovered gem in the heart of the city.

There's a good selection of cakes, pastries, hot and cold sandwiches etc and the service is very friendly and helpful. It's not as cramped as some places, so you have a bit more space to yourself. This is a very good alternative to the usual busy places in that area and one I'd choose first, now that I know it's there.

So we were looking for somewhere to eat, 5 of us plus 2 dogs and had been turned down at various places but Mugs welcomed us with open arms and provided water for the dogs straight away. The food was COMPLETELY DELICIOUSLY DELIGHTFULLY Wonderful we cannot recommend it highly enough! Great decor inside as well with the Alice in Wonderland theme. Great fun. We'll be back and thank you!

I absolutely adore this place: everything is absolutely delicious and much of it is made on the premises. It’s a family affair and this shows but only in a good way. Deservedly popular this is a café I just can’t keep away from.. Highly recommended..

Coffee here was great. Wasn't all that hungry (sadly) so had a toastie each. Exactly what we wanted and at a good price! Great selection of savouries and cakes. Can't wait to go back. Friendly staff who really care about what they're doing. Seems more like a bistro than your typical café. Merci beaucoup!

I literally cannot fault this outstanding friendly family run café. I keep coming back because they never put a foot wrong. They serve a wide range of food to suit all tastes. They have made themselves completely Covid-19 compliant which is very reassuring in these uncertain times during the global pandemic. Just love this place: highly recommended!

Went in on a busy Saturday, had some coffees and blueberry cake - both were absolutely delicious. Great selection of different treats, and plant-based milk options available. Had a nice, quiet corner table to study at, and the service was very friendly although a bit slow but that was probably due to the busy time we chose. Definitely recommend and would visit again, a unique little place and much rather prefer this over a generic Costa.

There are many cafes in Bruntsfield and Morninside - we've tried them all and this is our favourite. Great coffee, croissants, home - baked cakes. Run by a friendly family. And very reasonable prices.

Cannot fail this great wee place. Fresh and very tasty. There is nowhere locally to compete. Their signature Mad Hatter salad will bring you back time and again.

He estado aquí varias veces para una envoltura de pollo con tocino y aguacate y son realmente frescos y deliciosos. Hecho frente a usted por un personal encantador, y sabe insuperable. Amo este lugar.Nunca he tenido uno de los pasteles, pero se ven y huelen excelente, mi fuerza de voluntad podría desmoronarse la próxima vez que esté.

Excellent spot for breakfast / brunch. Try the breakfast burrito - you'll be back again [and again]. Great service, great staff, great food.

What a great find! We stumbled upon this cafe looking for somewhere to feed our son. We've since returned it's so good! Friendly staff, homemade delicious food, clear allergen guidance, clean facilities and baby friendly staff and facilities. Our new place in Morningside!

Genuinely the best cake I've had in a coffee shop in Edinburgh. Family run, friendly, outstanding value (particularly compared to overpriced nearby coffee shops).

It's so good spend your life savings here even tho it's moderatlly cheap with amazing value. I had bacon, sausage and egg roll. It was IMMENSE. My acquaintance had the 'farmer' toastie which was AMAZING.

Found completely by chance, another gem of a cafe. Lovely Alice in Wonderland themed cafe with great cakes amd helpful staff.

Dropped in for a coffee and a bacon roll. Excellent service and very friendly. Home baking looked lovely, will be sure to try it next time.

Just visited this cafe for the first time. Am very impressed. Not just with the coffee but with the place itself. It's friendly and airy and the food looks great! I'll be back.

Come here regularly when walking the dog and the coffee is great, the staff/owners are very friendly and the home baking is fantastic!! Me and my dogs favourite cafe - if only I lived a bit closer, I’d be here every day!

Nice friendly cafe, run by father and son i think. Coffee is good as is the home baking - real French chocolate on the millionaire's shortbread

Popped in here as the window cake display looked fantastic, when in fact the whole menu was just what we fancied!! Amazing bacon & mushroom bun, beans on toast for our little ones all followed with Crepes & Nutella and a slice of cake. Flat white coffee was gorgeous and the books were a lovely addition for our girls. On top off all this the service was impeccable and the prices very very reasonable. Its a no-brainer that'll we'll be back soon :)

The Team is a family , very nice, gentle and professional. All is Handsmade food. French and Uk foods. they did all for the costumers. thx a lot to Mickael

Best cafe in Edinburgh, lovely cafe, fresh food, addictive cakes and friendly owners. Highly recommended

Dropped in here for a bite of lunch since I was in the area and tempted by their hog roast meal deal. Didn't need the potato crisps in the deal as the hog roll was delicious and so filling. I asked if they had any apple sauce for the pork not being a fan of spicy sauce and the chef MADE a French apple puree for me. That's great personal service. Delightful French family run little cafe that is family friendly with books for kids and newspapers for mum & dad. Worth a visit for a leisurely coffee or a restful lunch.

Our first visit here and it was okay but felt more could have been made of the interior.

Attractive slightly quirky decor and light ambience make this a great place to have coffee or more. Pleasant proprietor and swift service complemented by excellent flavourful coffee. Well worth popping in.

My friend and I stopped at Mugs for a lunchtime bowl of soup, as I had previously gone there with my husband and thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff are very friendly and the soup is fantastic! Would maybe try a cake next time?! Very reasonable, as a large bowl of soup is only £3.50 and it is served with sourdough bread, which is delicious.

great value soup and sandwich. Baking is wonderful. Father and son do a very good job running the place and doing the cooking and baking

I live in Fife, so the choice of eating places in Edinburgh is a minefield. Without doubt 'Mugs' is the best cafe I have ever been to in Edinburgh. I loved this wee place! We were lucky enough to sit on the gorgeous comfy couch, the service was lovely and the food was to die for! I could have stayed longer but sadly the timescale of my parking ticket meant we had to leave, but we will without doubt return! The Mad Hatter/Alice in Wonderland theme was fab too!

This was morning coffee at a new cafe in Morningside/Bruntsfield, near the Churchhill Theatre. We were warmly welcomed by the owner who was helpful and attentive throughout. We ordered coffees which were delicious, together with freshly baked fruit scones with jam and butter. It was a very pleasant experience. The whole menu looked tempting. There’s a lot of competition in this area, but hopefully they’ll do very well.

This is my new favourite cafe in Morningside/Bruntsfield. Breakfast - amazing! Lunch - delicious! Afternoon coffee and cake - fabulous! A really lovely family run cafe with great choices throughout the day. Today my partner had the special pulled pork burrito for lunch whilst I had the tasty homemade butternut squash soup. The owner slow roasts his own pork for 12hrs to a Texan recipe and it’s sooo juicy. Every time i visit I take away raspberry cake for dessert at home the next day. If you haven’t been here you’re missing out!

What a find - a family run cafe, filled with amazing food, home baked goods, and bang on coffee. Mom, Dad and son are all there to provide a wonderful meal, great coffee and all around good experience. We recently moved to Edinburgh and have now been back many times - the food and company is that good - they all take such pride in their food and it is a joy to support a local cafe. The pulled pork is amazing and he tells me it cooks for 30 hours to get like this! As a personal note, we moved here from California and miss a good burrito. He has both breakfast and lunch burritos that are as good as you can get this far from home.

Glad that I have such a lovely cafe in my neighbourhood. Addicted to their cakes and croques. Very friendly staff. Free wifi.

Feeling damp and hungry on a drizzly summer morning, I decided to try this new-ish little cafe in Morningside. The breakfast burritos sounded good - and tasted even better ! The coffee was good too . There were some quite unusual traybakes , available to sit-in or take away , so I took home the oat and chocolate slice for the family - also delicious Great place for comfort food and the service was good - quiet , pleasant staff. I will be back ....

Visited for the first time yesterday, a great little place. Clearly family run and the staff were very friendly and amenable. Had lunch with a friend, soup, amazing gourmet toasted sandwich, salad and drinks. Everything freshly made, and reasonably priced. Will definitely be back.

Stopped for coffee and cake. Very generous slices of fresh (still warm out of the oven) homemade cake slices. Delicious. Good coffee. Friendly service
