Story Cafe in Edinburgh, City of

Excelente almuerzo ligero tomado por los tres antes de tomar el tour de John Knox. Deliciosa comida y excelente café y chocolate caliente y muy buen servicio / relación calidad-precio.

Acabábamos de visitar John Knox House y, al salir, tomamos un café rápido y un pedazo de pastel. Encantadora, espaciosa, luminosa y espaciosa cafetería con folletos interesantes, etc. para el Scottish Storytelling Center. Vale la pena una visita! El personal es encantador

Paramos aquí para almorzar, ya que también nos llamó la atención y desde nuestro hotel y estábamos buscando algo un poco más informal y más barato que un restaurante, era exactamente lo que necesitábamos en un día frío. Ambos comimos sándwiches de panini que venían con una pequeña porción de ensalada y papas fritas. Además compartimos algunas fichas (mi favorito en Edimburgo). Si te gusta ver a la gente sentarse en la barra de la ventana taburetes mesas! No probamos los pasteles, pero se veían deliciosos y tenían opciones veganas y sin gluten. Asegúrese de echar un vistazo a los eventos que están ocurriendo también.

Gran café y la comida y el café. El personal es muy amable. Busque este tesoro escondido. Recomendado.

We were ready for a coffee after a visit to the adjacent John Knox House, and it was raining out so decided to take advantage of the cafe. The coffee drinks were carefully made and were above average, but the fruit scones were large, a lovely texture, and tasty. The only thing that could have been improved was a bit of clotted cream instead of packaged butter. Otherwise, everything was cozy and delicious...

Fuimos para tomar el té; cones y tortas simples y ricas en un ambiente muy agradable, tranquilo y espacioso. Personal muy amable y buenos precios.

Stopped off for a fine hot coffee and a good homemade style scone with butter and jam. Highly recommended as there was a fine selection available and on the menu. Warmed us up on a cold driech home Edinburgh day.

Muy buen ambiente, entramos a ver la libreria y nos encontramos con este agradable lugar, nos deleitamos con unos tes con torta que estaban riquisimas, realmente recomendable...

Walking down the Royal mile we chose this coffee shop instead of others nearby as it is run by a charity and looked rather interesting. A good menu offering hot and cold food, we ordered hot drinks which were very nice and reasonably priced. Would recommend to others.

I went there with my collegue for a quick coffee and snacks. And I really liked this place . I would definitely come back again .

Joli petit café le long du Royal Mile pour profiter d une tasse de the à un prix decent. Gateaux sans gluten disponibles Lovely place on the Royal Mile to enjoy a cup of tea at a decent price. Gluten-free cakes available.

We called in here for a snack after arriving in Edinburgh. On the tables there are jars of stones which are there for visitors (grown ups and children!) to make their own stories. It's a family friendly cafe with good food. I had tea and cake (gluten free is available) at a very reasonable price. The staff were very friendly. The other bonus is that all the profuts from the cafe go to a local community project called Comas.

We had the lemon & ginger tea, a fruit scone and a cheese scone and both were great. Staff is friendly and their profits go to helping a local foundation Comas.

Went in for breakfast and had some of the cheese scones. They were really light and fluffy, and possibly the best scones I have ever tasted! They were still warm out of the oven and the butter melted into them perfectly. Worth a visit just for them!

Walked out after being ignored at our table, 20 minutes after we were given menus. People who arrived after us were served before us. Not the friendly welcome we were promised by the boards outside!

At the festival the wind was blowing and our tummies were rumbling. The story cafe offered refuge from the gales. Entering on her own, a few minutes before me, my mother is led to 'the most interesting table'; it is covered in old comic book pages.

It was virtually impossible to rest somewhere quiet on a busy Sunday along the Royal Mile. Found this great little café and had a little snack. The scone was freshly baked and quite lovely. The atmosphere inside was quiet and serene, nice contrast to the street scene outside.

In passeggiata sul Royal Mile ci siamo fermati per vedere la biblioteca ed entrati siamo rimasti stupiti dal vedere che c'erano dei tavoli e si poteva pranzare con dei piatti veloci ma veramente buoni, i dolci di loro produzioni appetitosi.

Un lieu sympathique, des serveuses au top, des plats généreux et gourmands, parfait pour commencer la journée! Un lieu pour ceux qui souhaitent bruncher sans trop se ruiner!

We had a perfect lunch there, the food is great (some of the best cakes we ate in Edinburgh), staff is friendly and the place itself is worth coming for its philosophy (profits given to charity organizations), the library, paintings, shows... a very nice surprise !

This little place was great to stop for a quick coffee and a bite to eat. The menu was varied and all the food is homemade. There are a lot of vegan and gluten free options which is great for me! I had a vegan brownie one day and a lovely cup of coffee. My mum had a scone which she really enjoyed. We then had lunch another day where I had a vegan lentil curry which was amazing and filling. Loved it, highly recommended!

We thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast at this really special place. The view through the window onto the High Street is great. Activities for children are on display and you can create your story using words written on pebbles in a jar. We had two pieces of very delicious amazing homemade bread toasted with avocado and we also added an egg and bacon. We also had a fried banana with peanut butter. Loved it!! Try it yourself :-)

On our way back from Dynamic Earth we wanted a quick coffee and something

Excellent café. Very friendly staff. Wonderful ambience. Most importantly, superb meals at affordable prices. Would highly recommend here.

Finally a healthy cafe that is delicious and the food so tasty. Whether a meat eater or a veggie all tastes covered and a huge selection of gluten free. Very nice, friendly staff. Best of all a social enterprise /charity run establishment.

A warm friendly cafe serving good freshly made food. We had soup and cheese scones and various cakes. All delicious. Good value.

Vegan and veggie freindly. Quirky but nice right in the Royal mile. Helps to service a charity. Great service from volunteer workforce. Support it.

Found little gem right on Royal Mile. Lovely food and cakes. Very reasonable, friendly service - what not to like!

Walking the Royal Mile we wanted a non tourist type cafe. This place is fabulous. Yummy food, caters for gluten free, vegan & all at a great price. Toys for children to play with. Would definitely recommend!

This is by far my favourite cafe in Edinburgh. Good quality food and coffee, fair prices, friendly table service, nice environment, central location, and all profits going towards a good cause. What more could you ask for?

We weren't sure what to expect when we went out looking for breakfast but this was a great find.The porridge was delicious,served with fruit compote and toasted pumpkin seeds.Presentation was super and almost a shame to eat it!The coffee was fresh and hot,just right.

I came here yesterday for a wee afternoon snack. i ordred the peanut butter toast and honestly it's the best toast I've ever eaten! Such a wonderful place, cosy, relaxing and the staff are super friendly and have lovely craic! Thank you <3

Great for kids. Had a look around the lovely Scottish books then had a coffee x Would prefer kids plastic cups and plates though but that's the only criticism x

We had a short period of time before we needed to catch our train home, and since the John Knox house and this adjoining cafe were close to our hotel, we went there. The John Knox house was interesting in itself, but the coffee was outstandingly good. Had we not just had breakfast, the cakes would have been very tempting. We also bought two lovely children's books in the bookshop. We will definitely go back there next time we are in Edinburgh. Allow about an hour and a half. In retrospect we could have had the audio guide for £1.

Un café/resto estilo librería con muy buena ambientación que invita a relajarse y disfrutar del entorno. Muy recomendable!

I always go to the cafe during my day off. The soup+sandwich deal is my favorite. The place is amazing, relaxing and they serve some of the best food (especially the scone), coffee and drinks in town. Very reasonable price just off royal mile! I highly recommend!!! :)

Located in the John Knox house, a nice place for lunch and a quiet break break from the tartin tat shops on the Royal Mile. The bookstore has a delightful selection of Scottish stories myths and legends. By one and head back into the pleasant cafe for a nice lunch of tea break. You can also tour the house.
