ArtCafe Morita
204 Canongate, Edinburgh, EH8 8DQ
Positioned halfway down the Royal Mile, ArtCafe Morita combines traditional café, Japanese fast food outlet and ambitious gallery space. Proprietor Kozo Hoshino is the custodian of a large private art collection, the Victor Murphy Trust, from which he…
Empires
24 St Mary's Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1SU
There’s a dark, exotic, Aladdin’s Cave feel to Empires – a one-off kind of place that has walls covered with Middle Eastern fabrics and tiles, multi-coloured globe lamps dangling from the ceiling, and an upstairs seating area full of scatter cushions…
Double Dutch
27–29 Marshall Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9BJ
Under new management since the summer of 2008, but still trading under the same name, any former Dutch influence which this café boasted has long since disappeared. There’s plenty to take its place, although it could be argued that the extensiveness of…
Brazilian Sensation
117–119 Buccleuch Street, Edinburgh, EH8 9NG
Open since 1998, this Brazilian restaurant in the Southside has been helping the people of Edinburgh delude themselves – despite any cold temperatures or grey skies – that they are in fact somewhere tropical, where the sun shines and the dancing never…
Café Marina
61 Cockburn Street, Edinburgh, EH1 1BS
Forget Ikea: this is where you’ll find the best meatballs in town. They're more of a hearty sausage shape than a ball here: get them cut up in pasta or squeezed into a ciabatta for a chin-dripping panini – but whatever you do, get them. With just a…
Word of Mouth
3a Albert Street, Edinburgh, EH7 5HL
It’s only five years old, but already Word of Mouth is one of Edinburgh’s definitive neighbourhood cafés, a recommended stop not just for the food but for the range of activities they manage to cram into the small dining space. An open mic poetry and…
Gaia Delicatessen
32 Crighton Place, Leith Walk, Edinburgh, EH7 4NY
The bustle is infectious in Leith Walk café Gaia, as various members of the Dragotta family busy themselves preparing food behind the counter. A family-run Sicilian delicatessen and café, everything here is homemade from scratch, including various meaty…
Broughton Delicatessen
7 Barony Street, Edinburgh, EH3 6PD
It’s rare for a café to try so hard to be all things to all people and not overstretch itself. Broughton Delicatessen doesn’t disappoint, though, with its front shop selling take-out snacks like baguettes, grilled sandwiches and crepes alongside cakes…
Blackcherry Café
29 Grassmarket, Edinburgh, EH1 2HS
If it’s a hangover breakfast, pre-lecture fuel-up or lunch-hour pitstop that’s required, Black Cherry in the Grassmarket is there to satisfy. A tiny but cheery café serving breakfast rolls, sandwiches, wraps and bagels, coffee and cakes to students…
The Pastures
24 Marchmont Crescent, Edinburgh, EH9 1HG
Sequestered among the tenements of Marchmont, this new small-scale venture is a local gem, serving homely comfort food in a bright and cheery setting at a tariff well suited to threadbare student pockets. They don’t back off on quality, though: poached…
