Southern Cross in Edinburgh, City of - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

We just arrived in Edinburgh by train, tired and hungry. After climbing a very long set of stone stairs, with a lot of luggage, we arrived at The Southern Cross Cafe. Excellent food at reasonable prices and extraordinarily friendly service made it well worth the climb. Don’t miss the Toffee Sticky Pudding!

During my stay in Edinburgh, had breakfast here both mornings (only 3min from my hotel). Had first time around simple breakfast (coffee, OJ, and a Brownie). Second morning had Eggs Florentine (honestly best I have ever had - nice an runny, fresh products, and very tasty), had 2 huge Croissants and OJ + coffee (nice roast - felt refreshing). Service staff are very friendly and cordial, ideal interactions to start off what I think to be is one of the friendliest cities I have been too (given I have been to almost all European capitals, many America and Asian cities - says a lot). I want to commend my waiter this morning (4th year Marketing student from Perth). Were to still be in the hospitality industry would not hesitate to hire him for any job (clear communication, attentive to details and most importantly smiles). I will definitely be back!

Perfect place for a lunch. Excellent food, very friendly staff and not expensive at all. I truly understand the high rating!

This is a great little cafe. Staff are friendly, choice snd price of food is reasonable and they make the best coffee around!

Accueil charmant et très agréable, on est reçus avec le sourire. La nourriture était excellente, du bacon au pain je n’avais rien à redire. La déco est super et le service est rapide.

Firstly, there's a lot more space than it seems, so even if it looks full it's worth checking! We went out for lunch and the food and drinks were lovely, friendly staff. Sadly didn't have space for any of the amazing looking cakes.. maybe next time

An excellent cafe with a friendly vibe in Old Town. We went twice during our visit to Edinburgh. The food was great, the service was friendly, and their array of cakes was impressive and enticing!

10/10 best breakfast in Edinburgh. Went here multiple times. most delicious and very good ingredient taste very fresh. Services, fantastic very friendly and welcoming

Opted to go in here for lunch, and being a Saturday afternoon , it was as expected , pretty busy. Probably waited about 15 minutes for our order to be taken, and half an hour before our food arrived, by which time our drinks were drained, so asked for water to accompany the meal - which was duly brought over. The chicken & cheddar quesadilla with side salad ( £ 7.45 ) was hot, tasty, well-packed & filling. My son had a cheese & bacon toasted ciabatta with fries ( £ 8.95 ) and wolfed it down. Wasn’t too enamoured with the “special” Nutella iced coffee though, which had gloopy lumps in it. Service was chirpy and cheerful despite being run off their feet. Was going to leave a tip , when my son pointed out it had already been added on to the bill - so be aware of that.

The big bertha breakfast was lovely. Haggis was delicious. Staff very friendly and overall for where it is located reasonably priced. Would recommend.

Food and coffee was good. Service poor. The waitress was busy but spilt my soup over the table as she set it down. She didn’t apologise but spent a while mopping it up. Quite an amount! She did nt offer to replace the soup. After I’d finished, she saw there was more spillage under the plate, but again no apology, more mopping. There was a service charge added to the bill automatically and I did nt want to spoil our day out by saying I’m not paying. I felt forced to, and would not have tipped if not on the bill. The menu doesn’t warn you that 10% will be added.

Not value for money. A cup of tea £2.95 for a round teabag floating in a mug. Scottish breakfast consisted of deep fried pork sausage oven roasted bacon and overcooked egg. The haggis, tattie scone and mushrooms were nice. Beans are just beans. When asked how my breakfast was I replied ‘alright’. No attempt to ascertain why. There are better places to eat.

Spotted this place whilst walking yesterday and earmarked it as somewhere to come back to for lunch one day. So glad we did. Staff were so genuinely friendly and enthusiastic. Food choices were great and they went out of their way to make a more simple cheese toastie for the children. The soup and ciabatta lunch was delicious and couldnt resist a cake afterwards too- I had a toffee apple crumble tart which was incredible.

We called in for a coffee while on a sight seeing trip. Very friendly welcome on a busy Friday afternoon. Delicious coffee and the cakes looked amazing but we just didn’t have room at the time. Once we came to pay our bill we discovered we could buy cake to takeaway so two pieces of carrot cake were purchased, placed in a box with care, and napkins and forks provided too. It was absolutely delicious even after being carried down the royal mile and back to our hotel! Thank you.

Dotting about Edinburgh we were mildly annoyed that the "Instagram" cafes were all busy and despite being hungry, we didn't want to park up at a Starbucks or McDonalds. So it was whilst wandering around we chanced upon Southern Cross Cafe. Whilst busy, it wasn't packed to the rafters. On entering, a cheery member of staff greeted up, and, thankfully, they had a table free, so they sat us down almost immediately. We were furnished with menus, and after a while, someone came over to take our order. We decided to share a Big Belter Breakfast after confirming with the lady that this would be more than enough for two people. Our coffees arrived, very nice they were too. The place seemed to be a haven for tourists given the different languages we overheard whilst sat there. Completely awesome. The food arrived and the lady wasn't wrong, this thing was HUGE. There was bacon, sausages, black pudding, haggis, mushrooms, beans, toast, almost enough to fuel us for the entire day out wandering. Looking around the place, it was full of happy patrons who were tucking in to some fantastic looking breakfasts. I spied a stack of pancakes that looked amazing - on any future return to Edinburgh I am definitely having that! This place is great, hearty breakfasts, great staff, wallet friendly prices.

Nice food but on expensive side , lovely staff ,service charge bug bear with me especially in a cafe for breakfast however was no problem moving it and we always leave a tip

I ordered the soup and the cake of the day, with a coffee. It was delicious. I think it was the highlight of my stay in Edinburgh. The waitresses were so kind and the place is quirky. The price is right! Highly recommended!

The food was so amazing and the coffee was perfect too!! We sat upstairs as it was quite busy, and it took a while before someone came to take our drink/food order so that was the only thing that let us down. Apart from that it was a really nice place to go to I definitely recommend it!!

Endroit très sympa et bien décoré. Plusieurs gâteaux en vitrine qui donne bien envie. Assiette breakfast bien bien garnis et très bonne. Allez y les yeux fermés

We waited a long time to get a seat but then were served quickly - coffee was quite small but tasted god and had lovely art. The only downsides were it was a bit noisy and we were hurried out pretty quickly by staff, bu it was busy so I guess that’s fair. Wasn’t the most relaxing place for a coffee, though.

This is everything a cafe should be. We stumbled upon it when needing lunch and a Wi-fi link good enough to watch the football on. Warmly welcomed we sat upstairs and were ably looked after by Rod. The food (panini and cake +coffee) was yummy, ambiance made you feel at home.We’ll be back!

We’ve visited the southern cross cafe 3 times now since living in Edinburgh and so I thought it was about time I wrote a review. Having previously purchased cakes to take away, today we thought we would sit in and have a bite to eat. We have NEVER been disappointed here. The staff are incredibly friendly offering their advice on the nicest things to order off the menu, the cafe is beautiful and most importantly the food is delicious. I really couldn’t fault it! We found this place by accident after strolling around 3 weeks ago when we first moved here and everytime we’ve walked past we can’t help but get something to eat. If you’re debating whether to eat here or not.... do it!

Seriously.The best Cappuccino in Edinburgh. The food is rather tasty too. Scotland in lockdown and it's pouring with rain and we're desperately looking for someplace to have lunch. Nestled half way down the road on a little side street off The Royal Mile we spot The Southern Cross Cafe, one of the only cafes open for business at this time. It was busy, like packed busy (but in a safe way of course, the distancing measures were adhered too at all times), yet the service was excellent and although we sat right at the doorway so I didn't have a clear view of the upstairs or back of the establishment I only ever saw three people waiting tables and they were outstanding, not once were we kept waiting.The food was lovely, a little pricey but generous portions. The ambience of the place was first class and this was largely due to the friendliness of the three staff. Did I mention the Cappuccino.Seriously though for me it was the fact that three staff were doing the job of ten and actually performed better than twenty.I was only in Edinburgh for two days but on my next visit I'll definitely make this a priority. Of course the castle is good but the Southern Cross Cafe is where it's all happening.

Found this place whilst wandering around the city and was thoroughly pleased we did. Everyone was super friendly and the food was incredible. Our thanks to Diego and the team. Oh yeah, took some cakes away too for later, can’t recommend the place enough.

We stumbled upon this place looking for some respite from the pouring rain after our visit to the castle. Turned out to be a really nice bit of serendipity because it’s absolutely great - the cakes in the window are even more delicious than they look and the chicken strips were a winner. We will definitely be coming back to work our way through the rest of the cakes!

What a great team Southern cross caffe has . I was staying next door at the hostel and my breakfast/lunch was always there . Such a variety of food and drinks with great prices . but the best was the whole team , specially Diego . They welcomed me very warmly they even let me leave my luggage when my own hostel did not let me do it . In general was a 5* and a MUST when going to Edinburgh!Thanks to all the team for everything !!Gracias!

We tripped across this place on our anniversary, it was FABULOUS, my husband had a burger that was delicious and huge. I had a panini that was amazing. It was full of atmosphere and the service was great and cost very little. There were so many yummy cakes to choose from too.

Very friendly staff, lovely atmosphere, nice coffee and great bacon rolls! Would recommend and will come again.

Lovely fun atmosphere. Great food and service! Our waiter's suggestions were spot on. Homemade soup and toasted ciabatta sandwiches were great.

servidor encantador más joven y burbujeante con una gran sonrisa. Mis huevos en bolsa con salmón estaban cocinados a la perfección y el chef realmente lo hizo bien. ¡El café era de muy buena calidad y todo el brunch fue increíble!PD: soy un tipo de brunch y lo entregaron,

Came here for cake and hot drinks while staying in the area. Nice place and atmosphere. Pleasant staff. Sat inside. Great range of cakes to choose from and very tasty. Would recommend.

¡Nos detuvimos para tomar un chocolate caliente de lujo y un latte de chia increíble! El servicio fue excelente, el caballero de la puerta fue muy amable, así como la camarera que nos servía. Fue rápido, servicio de mesa y tuvimos la suerte de sentarnos afuera. Por dentro tenía una gran sensación y todo estaba delicioso.

Fuimos tentados por los pasteles en la ventana y no nos decepcionó en absoluto. No podemos comentar sobre la calidad o el sabor de la comida ya que solo tomamos café y pastel. El café era excelente, los pasteles eran increíbles y el servicio fue amable y eficiente. Ciertamente no tuvimos quejas y definitivamente volveríamos a visitar aquí.

We stumbled across this cafe & ended up coming back every morning for brekkie! Staff are very friendly, breakfast options are good & the atmosphere is relaxed & easy going. Coffee here is really nice! Cakes are huge & very nice!

Fuimos a este café a almorzar aproximadamente una hora después de llegar a Edimburgo, después de tropezarnos con él mientras nos dirigíamos a la milla real. Tuvimos un magnífico almuerzo y una bebida fría y disfrutamos mucho del ambiente. Nos sentamos afuera para disfrutar de la mayor cantidad de Edimburgo posible. Disfrutamos tanto del almuerzo que volvimos a probar el desayuno escocés que habíamos visto en el menú el día anterior. Esto fue increíble. Al principio me decepcionó que el gran desayuno no viniera con ni siquiera una pieza de morcilla, sin embargo, sí vino con haggis, por lo que estaba muy feliz. La gran cantidad de haggis compensaba que no fueran morcilla.

Visited Edinburgh for the first time and came across this cafe. Lovely food and great coffee with a friendly relaxing atmosphere.

Qué gran lugar fue este, recomendado por un amigo nuestro que vive en Edimburgo. Íbamos allí a desayunar todos los días, mucho mejor que pagar el doble por tenerlo en el hotel. Mucha variedad que incluye desayunos calientes y platos de huevos como huevos Benedict. Todo era bueno. Un buen servicio también: nuestro camarero fue excelente, amable y nos dio algunos buenos consejos para nuestra exploración. Gracias de nuevo y buena suerte con tu curso universitario en Glasgow. Volveremos cuando nos encontremos de nuevo en Edimburgo.

Such a lovely cafe! While visiting Edinburgh me and boyfriend loved returning again and again to this cafe! They serve really lovely hot drinks as well as hot food! And their cafe window is full of displays of fresh cakes! Definitely recommend

Paré aquí antes de dirigirme a la estación de tren para desayunar y ¡fue encantador! Comida y café deliciosos. También fueron muy amables acerca de que tuviéramos nuestras grandes bolsas de equipaje debajo de nuestros asientos (ya habíamos registrado nuestro lugar de estancia y nos dirigimos a la estación de tren justo después).

My wife and I just had lunch here Sunday 20th, she had the mushroom and onion soup I had the chicken and cheese wraps (can’t remember how to spell the actual name 😉) both were lovely and the waitress was to, well worth a visit.

Absolute gem of a cafe, salads where well presented and very tasty. Staff attentive and professional and a fabulous atmosphere.

After a busy morning exploring Edinburgh, we both worked up the energy to have a delicious lunch and spotted Southern Cross which looked very appealing due to the amazing selection of cakes. The main disappointed was that we were served by an unenthusiastic member of staff who looked like she would rather be anywhere but at work. It did put a bit of a dampener on the trip as it felt painful to ask for drinks/sauces/bill. However, the main courses did not disappoint! I had the chicken, guacamole and cheese baguette while my partner had a cheese and chicken quesadilla. We both very much enjoyed the food which was hot and fresh from the kitchen. The service was quick also. We did however then decide to try the brownies which were rather disappointing. They were very dry and not an enjoyable brownie texture. So I wouldn’t encourage anyone to try them unless you like dry brownies! However, the rest of the cakes did look amazing and I wish we had time to try more.Overall, I would go back again due to the swift service and good value for money.

My son and I enjoyed lunch yesterday. I ordered a hot chocolate with the veg burger - which was made with actual vegetables! My son enjoyed his double patty beef burger and coffee. Big portion of fries each too. Cakes looked delicious but we were both full. Great service. Would visit again.

Fab little cafe for good breakfast and lovely coffee, situated on a nice street just off the royal mile. Great place for a little refuelling stop. The homemade cakes also looked amazing but we didn’t try as stopped for breakfast. Highly recommend.

We ordered breakfast from Southern Cross Cafe this morning (03/09) and were very happy with our food. We ordered Toast, Croissants and a Bacon Roll. These were all very tasty, well-presented, and the service was great too.They wore facemasks at all times and encouraged Track and Trace, so we always felt safe too. Cannot recommend enough.

We were in Edinburgh for 4 days and ended up visiting this cafe 3 times. Twice for tea/cake and once for breakfast. Food was lovely, service great with really friendly staff. Has a great ambience to it and there's some outdoor seating too for when the sun is shining! Would definitely come back here if we get to Edinburgh again and would definitely recommend.

Beautiful cafe in the heart of Edinburgh Old Town. The service here is exceptional, so good we came back each day during our 3 day stay in the city for breakfast and afternoon cakes. The food is exceptional, the cakes here are amazing as well as the coffee. 100% recommend to visit during your stay. The service alone will have you visiting more than once

We had just had a 2.5 hour train journey to Edinburgh, no food available on the train and we were starving so a quick Google to find the closest place for brekkie and we came here.Loved the decor, loved the cakes in the window. We both had a triple breakfast bap which was just gorgeous and a couple of hot drinks.Toilets are down some steep steps but perfectly clean.Polite staff and we were seen to promptly so we were nice and full ready for our day of exploring.

This cafe looked fabulous & had good reviews but was disappointing...our order was forgotten, a piece of cake went back as it was half a slice only, & worst of all the toilets were dirty with no soap or hand wash, toilet paper on the floor - not good at the current time. The coffee was really good but we won’t rush back...

Excellent cafe, all staff really friendly and welcoming. Great food and generous portions. We were seated quickly (there was a queue to get in but it was gone in less than 2 mins) and the staff were quick to bring menus and serve good etc. Good COVID measures time protect staff and customers and generally a really good experience. Definitely recommend!

Great food, cakes, drinks.Staff is friendly and attentive. We had breakfast and gone back for cakes and drinks. Convenient location close to attractions. Keep up the good work guys we will be back as we love Edinburgh. thanks

We had one vegan in our group of 4 and whilst the main menu had very minimal vegan selection the staff were very happy to adapt one of the dishes to cater. The food was quite simple Mediterranean influenced, but was very well balanced and tasty.The staff also ensured to take our details in relation to Covid, wore face coverings when attending our table and is part of the eat out to help out promotion for the month of August 2020.

The best chocolate and almond cake I had in years. We also had soup and chicken nuggets which was amazing. The coffee quality was very good to. If you want good food with great service this is the place to go to in Edinburgh.

We come here religious every year, and have just finished a whole week of breakfast every day here. Excellent food, excellent service, so welcoming, the highlight of our holiday every year! We'll always be back!

Amazing cake and great service. Lovely friendly staff, delicious cake, great location. Well worth a trip here. The breakfasts look great too.

Came in earlier today and I wasn’t having the best day. I had a lovely cappuccino that helped cheer me up. One of the employees noticed my upset and came to ask if I was ok. He then later gave me a free brownie to “make me smile”. Well it certainly did. A great cafe with great service and lovely workers. Definitely recommend if you’re having a bad day or even a good day! Thanks again.

Vandaag heerlijk thee en koffie met een koffie/walnoten en een wortel cake gegeten op het terras. Vriendelijke en snelle bediening. Een aanrader!

Visited this afternoon with my 8 year old daughter whilst on a wander round Edinburgh and stumbled across this place by accident. We were warmly welcomed, we had some tasty cakes and most importantly our awesome Aussie server, Georgia, was amazing. We had been for a visit to the zoo earlier in the day and my daughter was struggling to settle on a name for her Koala teddy...Georgia, being well placed to offer some suggestions, helped her narrow it down with a few ideas and then offered us some advice on where to head to next.Overall we had fantastic experience, so thank you to the cafe and in particular to Georgia. We’ll definitely be back!

We had been up since 4am travelling to Edinburgh and this was a cute little place that we came across on our way to our hotel. Gorgeous food and friendly staff. I had a veggie breakfast and my friend had eggs royale we both loved it and I had my first ever iron bru!

Visited twice in 2 days .. would go everyday if I lived in Edinburgh .. super friendly staff amazing food .. and the cakes well they are super... will most deff return on my next visit... keep up the good work guys..

¡Siempre estamos en busca de los lugares perfectos para el desayuno cuando viajamos y definitivamente vale la pena visitar Southern Cross Cafe cuando esté en Edimburgo! Divertido, acogedor interior, acogedoras mesas de café y mesas de bar en las ventanas, asientos adicionales en el piso de arriba, baños limpios, maravillosas opciones de desayuno y un excelente personal para comenzar el día de manera perfecta.

Came here for breakfast and lunch in the same day. Despite it being busy we were able to get a table and the service was pretty quick. The food was fabulous - massive soup portions! This is such a great little café.

Strepitosa la location, direttamente affacciato su Cockburn Street, hypster al punto giusto, dolci squisiti e ottimo caffè. Le coffee house che ci piacciono

We were strolling the streets of Edinburgh one autumn day and we saw this cute cafe in the middle of Cockburn Street. We stopped here for an afternoon tea and snack and we liked our desicion. For the fans of desserts and cakes, this beautiful cafe is heaven. They have a variety of decadent cakes and pastries to try. Go on, dig your sweet tooth right there. The ambience and staff are warm, welcoming and sometimes, busy. They serve English breakfast too! We are definitely going back for that one.

Jolie découverte grâce à Tripadvisor Très cosy, café formidable et desserts magnifiques, difficile de choisir Le sticky toffee et carrot cake sont fantastiques

Friendly staff and the place looks nice , it was a busy morning when we went . I ordered a full breakfast and my wife a bacon butty (sandwich for you southerners ) the breakfast came quit quickly seeing as the cafe was busy .on arrival it looked very nice but when i started to took in the food was Luke warm and the egg was cold . I got the attention of the waitress who was very helpful and she took it away . Thinking i was going to get a fresh breakfast i sat patiently for a minute until she returned with the same breakfast that had just been put in a microwave which turned my egg into a hockey puck ,and everything else dry . And it was cheap either for a English breakfast but hay when in a city .

I had a flying visit to Edinburgh (just over 24 hours) but visited 3 times. Once for a quiet glass of wine, once for coffee and then for lunch! I stumbled across it by chance and am glad I did! It has a lovely cosy interior and the staff are lovely. Was surprised at the reasonable prices too for somewhere so central. If you go for lunch, the chicken quesadillas are perfect!

Popped in here for breakfast during our stay in Edinburgh. It was very busy which was a lovely sign as it shows just how popular this place is. We waited no longer than a couple of minutes for them to prepare a table and I was quite happy gazing at their array of cakes - must go back to try them.The food was lovely. I had the eggs Royale and a cappuccino and I could not fault it at all! Really amazing. My partner had the full breakfast with haggis, his only disappointment being that the sausage wasn’t square. Service was fab and I would definitely recommend.Can’t wait to return!

Lovely place , we had the most amazing carrot cake , and the coffee was very good. Relaxing atmosphere and friendly staff.

Unusual conversion of an old building into a two level cafe at the top of an outdoor flight of steps from Waverley Station. Coffee and mainly lighter fare including a 'full Scottish' breakfast until 3pm or so. Well patronised on two separate visits. Friendly service. Perhaps a little overpriced but still worth a visit.

Great pressed sandwich with a side salad-- everything was so fresh and tasty. We didn't indulge in the desserts, but they looked amazing.

Lieux très chaleureux, avec comme accueil de magnifique cake en vitrine.

One of the only places to eat we found open before 9am, the breakfast was lovely and very filling! I very much enjoyed the haggis. Another of our party had the eggs benedict which looked lovely and was very tasty. The cappuccinos we ordered arrived quickly and were well made. Only reason for 4* and not 5 - the breakfast could’ve been hotter! The homemade cakes looked delicious so we popped back in the afternoon to pick up a couple to have with a tea :)

This is the perfect pit stop. Their food suits all hunger levels and the sweet treats are bountiful. Coffee is also a highlight to warm yourself after adventures around Edinburgh! Can’t wait to go back for more cake!

Overheerlijke brunch gegeten met goede koffie! Sfeer was goed en bediening snel. Ligging is ook lekker centraal.

This place was a great find. Local, fresh and scratch-made. The staff is attentive and the coffee drinks sure perked us up each morning.

Really nice cafe just off the Royal Mike. Tasty food, cute interior, good service and well priced. We visited it twice during our stay.

We were on our way to the museum and in need of a coffee. So my wife had used this excellent establishment before we stopped here. We availed ourselves of an excellent carrot cake and a superb coconut and raspberry slice. The coffee was lovely and a good sign was the cafe was extremely busy always a good sign. We will use this place again

We popped in on way to station for brunch lovely and very popular although I thought it was expensive the owner was a lovely guy 😊.. let my daughter sample the cake 🍰..

Super lieu pour un petit déjeuner ! Lieu chaleureux, personnel souriant et bonne nourriture! Je recommande

BEST coffee! Absolutely perfect. Friendly & very helpful staff. Mouth watering cake (white choc & raspberry loaf) our visit nothing but a delight. Lovely atmosphere & good background music. Great find, thank you!

This was one of our favorite places for lunch in Edinburgh. We a short wait, but were given a sample bite of cake while we waited. The lunch was delicious; soup and a panini. Dessert was a slice of cake and coffee....The staff was attentive and friendly. Great find.

New Year’s Day brunch with friends. Very busy but able to get a table after waiting for less than 10 minutes. Clearly a very popular location. Coffee was very good. I ordered the salmon toasts but this was really disappointing. Literally a slice of bread with a thin layer of salmon and cream cheese, topped high with salad to make it look like a massive meal but really lacking substance. Everyone else enjoyed their meals though.

Locale accogliente e personale gentile. La colazione è stata ottima. Abbiamo preso 2 cioccolate calde e una fetta di Carrot Cake. Era davvero deliziosa! Ci tornerò per provare nuove torte!

Truly a credit to the owner and the staff and the chef Highly recommended this place A must visit. Had a lovely salad and Mrs has salmon toast was a revaluation

Boa comida, muitas opções vegan, pratos principais e doçaria também. Musica optima, staff super simpático!! Numa zona da cidade encantadora! Tudo espetacular mesmo!!

Arrivate ad Edinburgo abbiamo pranzato nel primo posticino carino che abbiamo trovato e che non fosse una catena. Abbiamo fatto un'ottima scelta. Il locale è sulla salita che dalla stazione porta alla città vecchia

Had a full Scottish Breakfast here which was absolutely lovely. The cafe is very cozy and nicely decorated - our seat was upstairs overlooking the rest of the cafe which was great for people watching! The staff were very friendly, but our waiter seemed a bit distracted and forgot about us a few times - we had to keep asking him to take our order/get the bill. I even thought at one point we had to order at the till downstairs, however the tables around us were being served.

What a cute little breakfast spot. We ordered a full Scottish breakfast and a veggie breakfast the veggie haggis is tasty and the eggs were cooked perfectly. The staff are really attentive and friendly. We had two coffees and an orange juice which was freshly squeezed and so delicious. We would definitely go again.

Visited here twice with friends for breakfast, our first visit we had eggs benedict, 2 breakfasts that were taken from the options list and a ham and cheese croissant with 2 cappuccinos, a regular coffee and a luxury hot chocolate. After now seeing the photos the luxury hot chocolate was rubbish as it was just hot chocolate in a latte glass no cream and no marshmallows so very disgruntled for the price, also the eggs were not runny and not gven the option for white or brown bread on the toast order. Our 2nd visit we had porridge and fruit and a bap and granola and yoghurt and a plain croissant and a ham and cheese one, followed by cappuccino, 2 green teas and a regular coffee. The fruit was about 90p extra and we only got a strawaberry a couple of blueberries and a raspberry so not worth the extra cash really. The plain croissant was hard and cold and the ham and cheese croissant was the same which was a shame as the day before it had been warm and the cheese was melted and it was tasty. The cafe is always busy and they do have a greatselection of cakes that look amazing and the staff are very friendly it was just a shame that for the prices they charge they need to be spot on with cooking and givig options and not forgetting things like cream on the chocolate. Would return but only for cake not for breakfast.

Tasty coffee! Great place to take a proper breakfast. Their menu includes eggs, croissants and cakes.

Just off the royal mile. Popped in for a tea and a very tasty cake. Convenient location and friendly staff

Warm welcome .... friendly, professional staff. Good menu and specials board with great vegetarian choices. Awesome cakes. Well worth a visit.

The staff were friendly and attentive and the blueberry pancakes were to die for! It was a lovely find for breakfast and I would highly recommend!

One of the best coffee shops y will find out at Cockburn street👍 lovely chocolate and a kind service. Also you can eat they have great meals. Good decoration and cheap prices

Had the eggs florentine, breakfast roll and a croissant. All delicious and home made taste. Great service as well and a quirky place well worth a visit.

Had a lovely bowl of leek & potato soup, my husband and the fried chicken strips & chips. Very good. We’ll be back for breakfast.

It's The Best marshmallows hot chocolate in edinburgh! The price it's ok, only 4 £! If you want you can eat, they have a lot of things!

After a lovely morning walking along the royal mile visiting the palace and cathedral my girlfriend and I decided to pop into this cafe and enjoyed it .

Lovely friendly staff and great food delicious, stayed for lunch and food was cleanly presented and yummy.
