Café Gallo is such a pleasant spot to grab a bite and some coffee! There’s limited seating outside and a few tables inside with cosy decor and soft lighting. I ordered the Satay wrap which had peanut butter, bbq sauce, brie, chicken and bacon! An unlikely combo of ingredients which turned out to be super satisfying. One thing to note is that they apparently don’t have customer toilets.
Fantastic wee place with great food and coffee, as well as a lovely atmosphere. It's clearly a popular place with locals too, with a steady stream of regulars popping in over the 2 hours or so we sat battling our way through the breakfast wrap - one between two might have been enough, but it was delicious and certainly kept us going for a day walking around Edinburgh.
We stopped by this delightful compact cafe after a walk around Stockbridge.
We found even as a party of 6, with two small children and a pram, we were warmly welcomed and seated quickly. The service was very attentive and found the choice of sandwiches to be very varied.
In particular, the satay wrap and mexican focaccia we ordered were really nice and portions were on the bigger side. The milkshakes were especically good and very thick, compared to many we've tried in the past.
Clearly very popular with locals. Overall, wouldn't hesitate to recommend to any tourists with kids in this area.
It's great to go to an independent cafe. In the lull between showers my partner sat outside experiencing the Stockbridge Riviera. I had a lovely bacon and sausage roll and we had excellent coffees. My dog was well looked after too.
This is one of the best places I found out in Stockbridge area, it’s a small place and maybe you need to wait a little bit to get a table but it worth.
They have a varied menu and also a vegetarian options if you are fan.
The prices are affordable and the staff is very very friendly.
Highly recommended.
Sorry no photos, but I can assure you that the presentation was great.
I just stopped in after walking the city! Lovely welcome, had a hot caramel brownie with Tuscan vanilla ice cream, absolutely delicious! Really good coffee here too along with all the other food, wraps, breakfast sandwiches. I'll be back soon. Diolch yn fawr! 👍
Allergy issues - please address.
I'm leaving a good review because I do not think there is a need to criticise your rating over this issue, I just want you to take notice.
On three separate occasions I have clearly asked for an item to be both gluten free and dairy free (the satay). All three times I've had one of my allergens remain in the sandwich. I've had to scrape Brie off twice and was once given gluten containing ingredients. This can make me unwell for days at a time and you have agreed to cater for it so please pay attention, take notes for your chef and double-check because everything else is amazing. I'd either go with a all-or-nothing policy with allergies as the current experience is concerning.
Cheers
I had a roll and a cuppuccino here. Obviously very popular with locals, cosy, good value and the best roll and coffee I've had in a while.
Lovely place, very kind owners, perfect coffee and the wraps are 🤩😍
