I arrived here wet and tired. I had a lot of luggage. Biata, the manager was so kind. She stored my luggage for me till I could get into my hotel, and she also printed off all my flight info! So unbelievably kind! The other staff were so lovely too. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was lovely with beautiful art all around. I highly recommend a visit!

Thoroughly enjoyed an excellent lunch at the Open Arms. We were seated in the library which was very nice. Varied choice on the menu of Scottish fair. Food was well presented and delicious. The staff were very polite and friendly. It is a very traditional and homely place and a bit different for a special occasion.

Dropped in for breakfast and wow, was it good. Huge full cooked breakfast complete with slice of toast. This is a very popular cafe and rightly do. Suggest you phone ahead to reserve table at popular times. Well behaved dogs are welcome - handy watering hole if you are planning a day walking the Water of Leith

Tuvimos un tiempo fantástico explorando el yate, y sentimos que necesitábamos completarlo con un té crema en el salón de té. Ambos tuvimos un bollo de frutas (el mío era sin gluten que era un placer) y disfrutamos del ambiente y las vistas hermosas. La única queja es el precio, £ 5 por una olla de té para uno es bastante extorsivo, pero supongamos que paga por la experiencia.

Terrible experience. Facebook page said it opened at 11am, it didn’t open until 12, the closed sign stayed on the door until the 4th customer entered and asked if it was open. Took 20mins to get a coffee although we were the only people there. I ordered all day breakfast plus size (extra £3) but the menu didn’t say what you get for an extra £3. It was one piece of haggis & one piece of black pudding, both weren’t great. Sausage was cheap, the egg was overcooked and crispy on the bottom, beans were watery, bacon ok. I asked for toast. It came on top of the breakfast which made it soggy, i had to ask for butter and a side plate for the toast, i got possibly stork, it certainly wasn’t butter, i had to ask for the plate twice. Still only two of us to serve. The salad roll was ok, the coleslaw wasn’t coleslaw, it was chopped up lettuce & cucumber with mayo. It came to £22.00 Not worth the money, service was poor although it was a nice setting. I paid with cash (2x £20 notes) they didn’t have change. I was given £8.00 change and informed the staff i was £10 short. They didn’t have anymore change in the till. Between two staff to ‘mustered’ up a £10.00 note between them. Really really poor you cannot it right (never mind wrong a few times) with two staff for only two customers. I wouldn’t go back if the food was free.

The young lady that served us was very pleasant and the service was excellent but the place was cold and smelt musty. I had to keep my jacket on. I ordered fish but was told that it was off the menu.

Spontaneous visit to this local cafe after passing many times and always appears busy. The menu has a huge selection of hot, cold options along with sweet treats and drinks too. You can also sit in and take away if preferred. Upon entering I received a warm, friendly welcome from a polish lady who appeared to be the manager and in charge of serving. Good size cafe with lots of tables to choose from and very clean. Also, level access from the street is provided so good for wheelchair users. Decided to dine in and order the lentil soup with a buttery roll as I was short on time. With lots of food options to choose from, keen to return and try some of the other items on offer. Service was prompt and the portion was large. The soup was also piping hot and very tasty. Overall great first experience and would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good cafe near Gorgie area.
