  “I got the Scottish breakfast and it was very good! The portion was big, the scrambled eggs were so soft and amazing. The staff were so nice and friendly. I didn’t have a reservation and had to wait 45 mins but they take your name so i could explore the area and didn’t have to wait in line, definitely worth the wait”

  “food was delicious and definitely worth trying. We had to wait for a bit since we didn’t have a reservation, but it was understandable given how busy they were. The staff were also very accommodating and friendly, which made the experience even better. Would recommend, just make sure to book ahead next time!”

  “First introduction to a full Scottish breakfast and man it blew my mind. Everything was cooked wonderfully. The textures were all perfect. The haggis/pudding or whatever it was paired right with everything on the dish. Each element was a …”

  “Such a good find. We walked over after another nearby brunch spot had a long wait and got a table as a walk-in at 12 midday on a Saturday, which already felt like a win in Edinburgh. Really good independent brunch place with genuinely great gluten free options. I had poached eggs three ways: roasted ham, sweet chilli fried chicken and slow cooked beef with peppercorn sauce, all with eggs and hollandaise. Everything was excellent. My girlfriend had a latte with peanut butter and caramel syrup which was unreal, and the coffee in general was seriously good. The atmosphere was busy but chilled, quirky artwork and lighting throughout, and all the food coming out of the kitchen looked incredible. Staff were lovely too. Friendly, down to earth, turning tables well without making you feel rushed or pressured. Would 100% recommend checking it out if you’re after a good brunch and coffee spot in Edinburgh.”

  “Great brunch restaurant! Friendly and attentive staff and their food is amazing. We actually tried to book a table but apparently didn’t hit the last confirmation button, however, there was a spot open and we were assigned a seat. Their pancake stack with bacon was great. The Bellini very tasty. Can only recommend”

  “We booked in advance for my girlfriend’s birthday and they gave us a seat at the window, the view was perfect (given that we like to people watch!). The scottish breakfast was phenomenal, everything was cooked perfectly and the Chai tasted …”

  “Called here for breakfast where we received a warm welcome. I wasn't keen on the small chipped pot that the cappuccino was served in, no doubt manufactured that way but chipped pots aren't right. Both the Americano and …”

  “Very busy brunch spot in Edinburgh. We made a reservation a couple of days in advance, which is definitely recommended. The place is very Instagrammable and the service is friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, the food was a bit disappointing. We ordered the Eggs Mexicana and the Breakfast Stack Pancakes. What we liked least was the big difference in portion sizes. Since the dishes are similarly priced, you would expect similar portions. The Eggs Mexicana were tasty, but the portion was super small, if you ordered only this, you would probably leave still feeling hungry. The Breakfast Stack Pancakes, on the other hand, were a very generous portion. We were glad we could share both dishes so we didn’t leave hungry. Overall, it’s a great place for nice photos and a lively atmosphere, but if you’re mainly looking for an excellent brunch, there are better options in Edinburgh.”

  “Excellent, excellent breakfast. No doubt some of the best in Edinburgh. Fresh, tasty, well cooked and great value. Service was cheerful, quick but not over the top. Happily come again and highly recommend in general.”

  “Wonderfully elegant spot for earlier dining. We stopped by for brunch and had a great meal. This is a place that you certainly need reservations as it is relatively small inside. My full Scottish was delicious, served hot along with the rest of the table. Espresso and cappuccino were good and served in some really neat and unique lookimg ceramic cups (we purchased one as a souvenir of the trip). The food was very good and the wait staff was excellent getting the order right and navigating the tight space.”
