Leo's Beanery
23a Howe Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6TF
While it’s not unusual for a New Town café to go the extra distance in terms of befriending its regulars, Leo’s Beanery’s young owners Joe and Marie Denby have really stamped their personality on the place, right down to the photos of their family which…
Loopy Lorna's Tea House @ Churchill Theatre
Churchill Theatre, 33a Morningside Road,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4DR
Loopy Lorna’s Tea House is a popular Morningside haunt, with the only branch now located in the Churchill Theatre. Tea and cake is definitely the overriding theme with teapots everywhere, a special tea menu compiled by a master tea blender, quirky tea…
Moo Cafeteria
9 Brandon Terrace,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5EA
There's something refreshingly quirky about Moo Cafeteria. Alongside the bold décor of contrasting floral and striped walls are surprisingly offbeat features such as a miniature farm or a light box installation ‘window’. These singular aesthetic…
New Town Deli
42 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3SA
The smaller of the two New Town Delis, the Broughton Street branch offers a more concise menu including soup, stovies and sandwiches. Classic sandwich combinations include the New York-style pastrami, smoked cheese and gherkin, or to mix and match. Hot…
Palm Court
The Balmoral Hotel, 1 Princes Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 2EQ
Through the foyer and into the heart of the Balmoral Hotel lies one of Edinburgh’s grandest and most striking bars, a plush room with faultlessly polite staff and a bright, lightwell-effect high ceiling. In its vintage and its air of pricey refinement…
Patisserie Madeleine
27b Raeburn Place,
Edinburgh,
EH4 1HU
That Arnaud Djavanshir can produce anything but a cheese toastie from his minuscule kitchen is impressive. That he can turn out cakes and macarons as elaborate and consistently sublime as he does is miraculous. After just a four-day training course at…
Pekoe Tea

Edinburgh,
EH3 9LJ
Edinburgh's first Tea Bar and Coffee House; we stock about 100 loose teas. We also have Artisan Roast coffee beans, Chocolate Tree and other exquisite chocolate bars. We do sit-in and takeaway tea, chai, coffee and hot chocolate. Our beautiful Zero…
Salvo Caffè Restaurant
4 Earl Grey Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9BN
With the Cameo Cinema just blocks away, Salvo Caffè's Tollcross location is ideal for treating kids to a pre-movie knickerbocker glory or sticky chocolate sundae. The black, white and red themed décor is kitsch and cosy, with Marilyn Monroe the clear…
Spirit Café
Tartan Weaving Centre, 555 Castlehill, Royal Mile, Old Town,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2ND
You can't get much closer to the heart of tourist Edinburgh than Spirit Café, which is cheek-by-jowl with Edinburgh Castle and upstairs from the Tartan Weaving Centre. It even shares its space with a Military Tattoo exhibition and gift shop. Fight your…
Sprio
37/39 St Stephen Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 5AH
St Stephen Street on a summer’s day could almost be mistaken for a Milanese back street, and it’s this atmosphere the owners of Sprio succeed in reflecting. This isn’t just an Italian-themed café, it’s one which reflects the sights and smells of the…
The Stables Tearoom
Hopetoun House,
South Queensferry,
City of Edinburgh,
EH30 9SL
Hopetoun House is one of the country's grandest stately homes, so even a visit to the stables – designed by William Adam for a dozen prize hunters – is no hardship. In the large, flag-stoned room you'll find linen-covered tables and the chance to…
