Water Of Leith Cafe Bistro

Siobhan Tyrrell

We love this Cafe. Tucked away in North Leith, it's an easy walk from Ocean Terminal or from The Shore. The owners are lovely, down to earth, friendly and talented. We've had some great brunches here. Decor is bright and friendly. If you're a parent it's kid friendly with a bunch of toys for junior. This is a great place to meet friends for a coffee and a delicious cake. The home cooked food makes it a firm favorite in our Leith places to go. Def one to visit.

One of our favourite places to eat in Edinburgh, a lovely little bistro serving up great food. Service is relaxed and friendly, you'll always want to stay for that extra glass of wine. It's worth visiting for the croque monsieur alone, it's certainly not to be missed and was far superior to the ones we tried on our holiday to Paris.

I shouldn't really say this ... because I risk not being able to turn up without booking ... but seriously, people with massive, gleaming cars & their own car number plates are beginning to pull up beside Water of Leith Bistro and saunter inside for a light lunch ... Today, I swooned over a massive bowl of fresh mussels & pork belly with crackling with an apple sauce. Top rated resto on TripAdvisor in Edinburgh for the "£ rating" and "££ rating." Service is uber friendly and if you go kinda oftenish, the owner will greet you by name. It's the type of bistro you always dream of discovering or opening ... a tiny venue hidden off some godforsaken backstreet in the back of nowhere serving up lashing of sweet banter, food and ambiance.
