Victor Hugo Del - The Meadows

Wonderful continental café by the park. I had some Belgian waffles with poached eggs and streaky bacon, with some maple syrup, of course. It was a refreshing breakfast after a few days of eating mostly Scottish food. But the best thing about this café is that you get to admire all the pastries on display. It is my deepest regret that I did not try the Basque Cheesecake or Portuguese Nata. Do not turn your back on these.

A great place for lunch. All of the food is delicious. The bread is fresh, the coffee is tasty, and I’ve never had a meal here that I didn’t love. This deli is right off the meadows making it perfect place to catch up for a meal, coffee, and a walk. I had the Basque sandwich this time around and it did not disappoint. The staff is always friendly and, although you might not have a table as soon as you walk in, you’ll appreciate that you don’t feel rushed or like you’re eating at a table with strangers.

Our hotel offered no breakfast, so we tried this nice looking deli. The coffee and the food were so delicious that we came here for breakfast the next day too. The service is very friendly. We would love to visit again on our next Edinburgh trip!
