Poppy in Edinburgh, City of

Nice little cafe just opposite the cathedral on the royal mile. A tad pricey but a nice little find for a quick coffee and bite to eat whilst exploring.

I wanted to love this Indian street food spot, it had a cool vibe, smelled great, laid back and great soundtrack. But the food was tasteless. First, while they promote the Bombay sapphire gin, they simply won’t make their also advertised gin martini out of it, even for an up-charge. I rolled and took their version which was a citrusy lime affair, when everyone who matters knows gin martinis are meant to be served dirty and with olives. Maybe that’s the New York girl in me, but moving on, the Papadam had not an ounce of cumin, seed or powder, just puffed dough. Similarly, the Haka noodles were mush and honestly tasted like nothing except maybe vinegar. Maybe the mains are better, but I’d try your luck elsewhere. My 3 purchased items are all going back mostly untouched.

Excellent service and choice of food

Lovely place well served and great staff, the best hot chocolates in town, great treats to eat as well

Lamentablemente después de servir la gente de Leith durante muchos años Bonita colgó su delantal y vendido su saludable pequeño café. La buena noticia es que se ha comprado por Yoyo que comprensiblemente ha renombraron Yoyo's. misma buena comida casera a precios de ganga, todo servido con una sonrisa
