The decaf espresso was outstanding I must say. As there aren’t many good decaf around so it was refreshing to find such long note of toffee and acidity in this espresso. And its bean pricing is also very reasonable - £8.5 for 200g. The barista was most helpful in sharing his tips in the grinding and brewing of this bean. Thanks barista! This is truly a fantastic gem I highly recommended.

Fantastic coffee-first cafe on the edge of Bruntsfield Links.
There's a good range of sweet treats, but really you come here for their passion for coffee. They sell it retail and wholesale as well as running the cafe, and the baristas here are clearly very talented.
Dog-friendly as well, which is handy if you've been meandering around the Meadows or the Links to wear your canine companion out!

One of, if not THE best coffee shops in Edinburgh, beautifully smooth coffee every time, perfect temperature (never burning the milk), baristas are all lovely, fantastic people and the atmosphere is just great. Highly recommend their gorgeous coffee. 😊

Cosy, casual spot to sit in for a coffee. Would recommend upstairs for a quieter visit or sitting by the window to people watch. Really like the energy in here, which I'm sure is down to the members of staff, they're all super friendly and on the ball. Would definitely recommend a visit.
The morning buns and cinnamon doughnuts are particularly delicious!

Coffee is one of my favourites in UK, croissants are perfectly laminated and goes so well with their butter/jam, not to mention the best staff!!

I was impressed by the Blue of their decorations. The coffee was so nice. I tried Dirty Chai today, and it really impressed me!

This is hands down my favourite coffee shop in Edinburgh, and I spend half my life in coffee shops! Amazingly friendly people work there, it is loudly pro LGBT+, and they have a great coffee bag return incentive.
I am really nervous around dogs though, and there is always a dog there without fail because it's so dog friendly. I know this is a plus for most people, so I just wanted to flag this for anyone else like me.
