About Tupiniquim
Tupiniquim serves Brazilian crepes from a converted police box on Green Police Box in Edinburgh, with the full menu made gluten free. The kitchen, run as a family business, also works around combinations of corn, dairy and egg restrictions alongside the gluten-free base. Crepes are made fresh daily, and the Steak Pancake is a recurring order, alongside a Nutella and berry version for dessert. Diners can swap in goat cheese for mozzarella on the savoury crepes. The kiosk operates on a walk-in basis with outside tables for eating on site. It opens Tuesday to Saturday and stays closed on Mondays and Sundays. The menu runs to around thirty dishes in total, giving room to move beyond the crepes on repeat visits.

“Such a wonderful little crepe place! Incredibly tasty and freshly made everyday. They are so good with allergies and the whole menu is 100% gluten free. They are an incredibly friendly family run business and there is a lovely little …”

“You know that a place is special when you go there two days in a row! My partner and I visited Edinburgh for three days and ate here for two of them because every single crepe combination was absolutely fantastic. The goat cheese and mozzarella combination with the spicy sauce blew my mind. The Marguerita crepe??? To die for 😋 and the Nutella and berry crepe is a must for dessert. It was additionally special for my partner who has celiac to get food prepared for him by someone else who also has celiac! Highly recommend to gluten free and non gluten free friends alike :))”

“Wow, such an incredible little spot. The most delicious crepes! As a coeliac this was such a good find. I had the let it go chicken with both mozzarella & goats cheese, and my partner had the steak. Highly highly recommend! If we had room left we would have gotten a sweet one too.”
- Bliss Laws
“I’ve been excited to try this place due to its gluten free menu and it did not disappoint. Great price for the food, lovely staff and quick service. My friend and I had the steak pancake which was delicious and we got offered extra sweet potato. They even allowed me to sub in goats cheese for mozzarella. I will definitely be back !!”
- Erica Caballero
“Absolutely AMAZING! It’s not too often that you eat something GF that you say “Wow” from the first bite to the last. A must for anyone but especially for those who are Gluten Free or have dietary restrictions. They adjust to make something you can eat and navigated our gluten free, corn free, dairy free, and egg free family. Our family gives it a 1000/10!”
