Ostara Kitchen & Larder

Excellent small bistro tucked away in Leith. We went for brunch and there were so many exciting options I feel like I could have ordered 4 different meals. We took our 21 month old toddler and they were extremely accommodating, and his cheese omelette was as good as anything we ate. I had a Chorizo hash and virgin Mary and honestly, that probably could have sorted me for the day! We will be back.

So glad we found this place. We loved it; wonderful atmosphere, great music, nicely spaced out tables so we could relax without feeling too close to other diners. All of the food is clearly prepared with care and attention. Will definitely return next time we are in Leith. Thank you to the wonderful person who served us and the chefs for their work in the kitchen.

We had a nice experience at Ostara and would happily go back. The scones, the breakfast hash and the breakfast pancakes were all exquisite in their execution. The pancakes were topped with (among other things) large crystals of honey, which added both depth to the texture of the dish and added aesthetic beauty. Coffees and teas were both very enjoyable. Service was prompt, helpful, and patient. The music was pleasant, gentle American country music. The atmosphere was open and clean.

Yum to Australian style breakfast places abroad! This was a delicious combination of careful quality in each dish and world inspirations. I had a Middle Eastern inspired plate with yogurt, eggs, pita, and lamb. I split decadent raspberry pancakes with my wife. Our family had scrambled eggs and bacon on toast. What a brunch! You can sneak parking down one block by the apartments.

Over from Melbourne on holiday. Was a Welcoming and warm reception from the get go. Enjoyed their wide range of teas and the focus on local produce with proud provenance. Couldn't decide on breakfast so built my own eggs plate with a side of almost everything! The pork sausages and black pudding were absolutely to die for! Could come here every day for weeks to sample all the different specialties on offer. Highly recommend the weekend eggs Benedict specials. Today they had wild foraged mushrooms on offer that would not be out of place on a michelan star dish! Great work guys! Look forward to coming back next time I'm in Edinburgh
