Hidden gem alert and the BEST honey cake I've ever had. We took a break from sightseeing near the Edinburgh castle to use the wc and have a coffee and thank God we did because this place blew our minds. All we ordered were a cortado and a (Russian) honey cake but the quality and flavours of those two items really blew us away. The honey cake was heavenly and spongy with a creamy smooth interior contrasted with a sweet nutty exterior topping. The coffee was made perfectly without any bitterness and had fruit notes of apricot and honeysuckle. Overall, if you are in Edinburgh do yourself a favor and please make sure to check this place out!


What an adorable little cafe!
Very snug but a beautiful atmosphere. Love the decorations of cassette tapes everywhere.
Ordered a long black which was smooth and fantastic.
Staff were friendly and always happy for a chat. Can definitely recommend!

The coffee was fine, the honey cake was good… till I saw how an employee is spraying the show window (where they keep all the cakes etc.) with a glass cleaning material (some chemical stuff) while all the cakes are inside…
I do appreciate clean cafes. But I want NO cleaning chemicals next to my food!

Excellent cafe. Warm, inviting. Friendly staff and delicious coffee and sweets. Some sandwiches as well. Not a lot of seating but still a great stop along the walk.



Nice hidden little gem, great food/drinks and atmosphere. Staff are also friendly, just be aware there isn't that much seating!




The cafe's cozy and inviting atmosphere immediately made me feel at home. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and made excellent coffees. However, the true standout was the honey cake - just as it is at their sister cafe in Leith.







Great spot to grab a coffee & bite to eat. My cortado coffee was great and so was my Parma ham sandwich - they had a good variety pastries and sandwiches to choose from. The coffee is on the strong side which I like.
It’s not big inside, but they do have a few tables to sit at - max two or three people at a table.
This spot has has. a great vibe & friendly service.

A great place to stop for coffee and a snack. I prefers a sandwich and a slice of pistachio cake, both of which were delicious washed down with a perfectly balanced long black.
Old Town can be a little bit on the thin side for good quality, independent food and drink. The proximity to so many popular tourist destinations and the high rents make it tricky. But this place is bucking the trend and should come highly recommended.
