A lovely cafe, friendly staff, excellent food - I’ll be back when next in Edinburgh. I had the Korean kimchi pancakes and a pumpkin dirty spiced latte.

Fantastic brunch food.
Went with a large group (6 adults and 2 kids) for brunch.
We had to pay a £10 each deposit which was removed from the total at the end and we had to reserve directly with the manager - it is pretty standard for weekend brunches and they were really nice and quick at replying.
The restaurant is lovely, it can be busy and drafty if you sit near the door - like we were, but it didn’t bothered us. Just be aware in case you want to book for a more intimate occasion.
Food is impeccable and they give you really large portions. Coffee is excellent as well!

Excellent food , original creative brunch menu.
Although quality is good a touch pricey for some of the dishes.
A solid choice all the same

Seriously nice brunch and quality breakfast food venue: great for a special treat or occasion ✨
Probably best iced coffee menu/selection I've ever seen (Praline/Biscoff Latte looked amazing (served with icing/cream round the rim of glass) extremely decadent...almost like a dessert and probably ideal to share amongst 2/3 people).
I had Cheesy Mushroom Toast (Toasted Company Bakery seeded sourdough, Shropshire Blue, Cheddar & leek rarebit, truffle oil roasted field, mushrooms, free-range poached egg, walnut pesto). Truffle flavour was strong and rich, mushrooms delicious, pesto great addition.
Shakshuka, Latkes & Smoked Salmon Toast also approved.
Portion sizes great (for 2 hungry 20yr brothers).
Service was somewhat tedious towards end of meal (slow to bring bill but covers were full and it was peak time), atmosphere was busy/loud and lively. We got an hour time slot for the booking.
~£25-30/head for coffee and brunch menu each.
Would definitely make an effort to visit again If in the area.

First time visiting today, have to say, the food was excellent. The ingredients felt fresh in my mouth and the taste was sooooo good! At first I thought it was a wee bit pricey but it was definitely worth its price!

Good food and atmosphere. Staffs were really great with food allergies and great service throughout. Multiple options for vegans as well. My only pet peeve is that my poached eggs were well done in Shakshuka.

Food: over and above! Better than expected every-time. Menu changes seasonally which brings you back again and again, the dishes are creative versions of international cuisine. Brilliant mixes.
That being said, I understand they are almost always crowded and full, but they either need to bring more staff or expand space, so that the staff they have at the moment are capable of being nicer.
Too much coriander on the Shakshouka.
