  “Quiet, and with some seating, albeit more functional than recreational, a good place for one of multiple house pours or standard milked coffees with food options available”

  “Lovely coffee shop. A type I’ve always wanted, no loud music no loud staff. Peaceful to sit and read papers or books. Students can also enjoy the atmosphere and focus. A request to owner, please keep the cafe open till 6:30pm or 7pm. I understand it may not be possible but me and my local friends would love it if we can stay a bit longer at my favourite cafe in weekends or a refresher coffee after a long day at work. ❤️”

  “Excellent coffee with a great blend of sweet and bitterness (Black Americano). Chilled ambience with thoughtful touches and local artists’ paintings for sale on the wall. Bakes looked good. But what makes it exceptional is the music playlist with great tune after tune from the past 40 years. Seldom Shazamed so much - and just as I’m writing this one of the baristas came over with the name of the last tune written down on a napkin as they thought I’d been able to find it. This is just a wonderful place to relax, read and sip quality caffeine with high quality service too.”

  “No menus to look at, took ages for someone to acknowledge me waiting to get one. I asked for the banana bread and a coffee with oat milk - got served normally milk, had to ask for it to be changed. Banana bread came with butter - not what was on the menu?? See photos”

  “I enjoyed the atmosphere and the staff was friendly enough to replace my beverage, however: 1. The cold brew was very diluted, it felt like the brewing ratio used was a lot lower than the standard. 2. It’s the first time for me to see a coffee shop selling iced beverages in such tiny cups (also applies to ice latte). 200 ml minus around 70 ml of ice is quite mingy for the price. Besides, I don’t understand why use plastic if we were sitting in 🤷‍♂️ 3. What is the point of having filter coffee brewing equipment such as V60 drippers if filter coffee isn’t on the menu? (Considering that batch brew wasn’t available either)”

  “Really, really good coffee. Overnight oats was great too (I was a bit worried that it would be stodgy, cold porridge, but it was very far from that!). Dog friendly. Great little cafe.”

  “Excellent coffee — and the freshest croissants I’ve found in Edinburgh so far. The place was very clean and cozy, and there were plenty of outlets as well as seating space.”

  “Plenty of choices in Morningside for coffee so we thought we would give Pop a go. Was really good coffee (babychino, Cappuccino and flat white) and the blueberry muffin was fantastic (2 year old enjoyed it also). Quite tight to sit in and with plenty of choice around it will be interesting to see how well it does”

  “This is a relatively new place in Morningside, and we decided to give it a try. It looked very promising at the start, but the warm welcome was followed by average service. While we were waiting to order, we noticed a staff member rinsing/cleaning some mugs in the corner. They didn't seem to do very thorough work, and unfortunately, that was noticeable on some of our mugs. Despite the replacement of our mugs, the whole approach unfortunately put us off. It's a place that looks very promising, and the products were good, so I will definitely give it another try, considering that the service may be related to the shift and not the cafe culture.”

  “Recommend Brew Batch filter coffee (and usually I do not order filter coffee!) and Caramel Espresso gluten free brownie, which is more a mousse than a brownie, deliciously moist and rich. Friendly and helpful staff. Formerly Detour, now Pop Coffee, same interior decor, except for some intriguing art work on the walls, colourful painting … perfect for Halloween enthusiasts.”
