This is my favourite local cafe and sandwich shop. Serving both takeaway food and dining within the cafe, there's always something to be tempted from the large lists of interesting sandwich combinations on the blackboards above the counter. They also offer salad-bowls, baked potatoes and home-cooked quiche, daily specials and tasty home-baking. Service is always impeccable with really friendly and attentive staff. More than just a sandwich...

Love this place! Friendly, clean and the food is so fresh. My only complaint is there is so much to choose from! The 2 guys are always so nice and very attentive, the food is delish and it's one of the best cups of coffee in town!

Despite the name it does have a space for sitting places but not for large groups. A short walk from the Haymarket station. Reasonably priced and good value and service.

One of the most welcoming, wonderful and utterly delicious cafes in Edinburgh. Eileen and the team make everything fresh and every meal I've had has been utterly awesome. Really great provision of vegetarian options which is as diverse as it is delicious. Their mushroom soup is second to none! All finished off with a friendly atmosphere and really lovely and caring staff. It's become my favourite place to go to for lunch. Could not recommend highly enough!

We stopped for brunch at this great cafe when walking back from Murrayfield. Our group of four received a really warm welcome and attentive table service from lovely friendly staff. The full Scottish breakfast was amazing - two of everything, tasted delicious, with a massive pile of buttered toast, and all beautifully presented. What a discovery, we will definitely return!
