Great coffee and incredible sandwiches. Staff is super friendly and the Cafe itself is very cozy!

We've been staying around the corner and doing takeaway each morning (despite initial plans to try other shops in the area). Lovely espresso drinks and flaky pastries. Highly recommend to anyone passing through.

The smallest cappuccino I’ve ever been served and the pastry was dry & inedible. Waste of money & time having to go up about 4 escalators then back down to the car park. Rip off Britain indeed.

A very good place for snack & coffee in Edinburgh City Centre.

Excellent selection of beans if you’re into light roasts. One of the few cafes in the world that stores their beans frozen in individual dose containers to preserve the flavors. They carry their own roasts in addition to other roasters.

Barista though was not very knowledgeable or maybe was just in a rush to get done, given it was close to closing time. Espresso shot was pulled okay.

Nice wee place & decor (liked the old skis in the corner 🙂). Cappuccino was small, but strong 💪😁 missing the chocolate top, which imo is what a cappuccino is all about 😋 (option to add wasn’t given when ordering, but there was toppings available to add). The bounty hot choc was lovely! 😋👌 …if you like bounty’s you’re ‘bounty’ like it (boom boom) 😂

A cozy wee shop with four different espressos (including one guest and one decaf) to choose from. No syrups or sugar alternatives. Sit in or take away.

I had the Grand Slam, which was lovely flavor-wise, but less creamy and more watery. My husband had the guest espresso, which we were told wasn't acidic, but it was. Again, it was more watery than creamy.

We had the salted caramel and raspberry cheesecake brownies, which were nothing short of amazing.

All in all a lovely wee shop with a nice atmosphere. Definitely more bespoke than most coffee shops in Edinburgh and some of the better espresso available.
